At this point, I don't know what I'm going to write about. It's 11:12 AM as I type this, and I've let the day slip away from me once again. Too often, I get good ideas throughout the day and then I just either:
1). Decide I'm too lazy to write about the topic 2). I SAY I'm going to write about it, but then forget by the time I sit down to blog 3). Find an excuse not to 4). Become overwhelmed with ideas, and then let them all slip So now it's late, and I have nothing to write about. Wait... I lied. I know, actually, where I WANT to go with this post... just not how to get there. How to reach my conclusion. Allow me to share my thoughts with you... When I began writing this post, I wanted to take the idea of not grasping blog post ideas and use it as a clever metaphor for not letting opportunities slip away from you. It SEEMED like a good idea when I began this post, but now I can't seem to segway into the point I was trying to make. Ah well. Almost time for bed now, so I'm just going to tell you my thought. I think that all too often, people let opportunities pass them by... and you never know what chances you take will affect your life in a large way. A good example of this is my mom and dad. When they first started dating, they went to a beach party together and decided to take a walk on the beach with my mom's friend and one of my dad's friends. My dad chose to walk with my mom, and as they walked, he grabbed her hand. This chance would change his life... that walk on the beach, hand in hand, led to them dating which led to them finally getting married. Without my Dad's choice to not let an opportunity slip him by... I wouldn't be here right now. I wouldn't exist, and neither would this blog. The world would be considerably different, perhaps. I don't know. If I didn't exist, what would be different? Have I saved any lives, changed any lives..? I don't know, and I don't know if I WANT to know. I'll leave you with my dangling night time thoughts and conspiracies... I have to get some sleep now. Don't ever let chances pass you by. Maddie
