next chapter

to friends and foes of laholden.blogspot.com, this ship has officially sailed.

i'm a grown up now and no longer in college, so it was time. for the two of you who continue to seek me out and encourage me to blog (you know who you are), i have started a new one. i'm keeping it private though, so don't expect it to be broadcasted on facebook. still, it is mine, so enjoy. to everyone else and to blogspot, it's been real, but it was getting too boring for me, so i had to move on. love and payce.

don't let fear run your life

someone inspired me completely. that person left me wracked and rocked. i thought about them and their life and what they meant to me every freaking day and night for months and months just trying to understand what they had done to me. attempting to know who i had become because of them, or if i had even changed at all. i was so fully entranced by what this person meant for my life that i missed an opportunity to seize their boldness and make something of it. experience it. let myself learn from it.

don't let the fear of something you don't understand, or something you've never experienced, consume your every thought as you psycho-analyze all that it entails. because eventually, when you've completely exhausted that psycho-analysis process--what it means for you, what it means for your whole life, what it means to everyone else--you'll find that it's too late to experience it because that ship has sailed. that person, that place, or that thing has moved on. that's my mistake. don't make it... and don't let fear run your life.
