Underestimated

Sunday afternoon, I went and had some asian food with my long time friend Will. Will & I have known each other our entire lives basically and he was one of my best friends all through High School. When they brought our checks of course they brought us fortune cookies. Usually I open them, halfway read them and laugh because they are usually pretty silly. This one however, really struck a chord.

Since Sunday I've been thinking about how I view myself. Just to be honest, I have zero confidence in my talents and I underestimate myself too often. I know they saying we are our own worst critic, and its such a true statement, but for me...I do nothing to critique myself on. I'm just wasting my talent doing the same thing day in and day out. just over and over and over again. And who's fault is that? No ones but mine!

I think the problem is that the goals I set are so easy for me to achieve. I set goals that I know I can accomplish....Yes, when you set goals you should set realistic ones, but they should at least be challenging. Mine aren't and thats no ones fault but my own simply because I underestimate the things I can do, and I am terrified of failure. Again, just wasting talent because of fear. It's ridiculous. I really need to re-evalute my life and the plan that GOD has for me. Somehow I've run off thinking I can do this myself...my own way and guess what, I can't. I want Gods plan for my life, not Brianna's. So whatever that is, I'm ready and willing to do whatever I need to.

"...Everything is possible for one who believes." - Mark 9:23

"...What is impossible with man, is possible with God." Luke 18:27

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to HIS purpose." Romans 8:28

I am praying for a new confidence in myself and confidence in the talents that God has given me. He gave them to me for a reason and it wasn't to sit them aside and let them collect dust. Thanks for letting my get a few things off my chest and thanks so much for reading and loving me:)

FL kind of l o v e

Hi hi hiiiiii:)

I'm in Florida with a few of the best people that I am blessed with!

Frannie, Brent & I are having a blast. And I couldn't pray for better people to hang as a Third-Wheel with;) Hahaha. BUT that's why I love it, because with them I am the furtherest thing from the third wheel. Theyre the b e s t.

Frances & I had seriously the best time I have had in my life traveling to Fort Walton to meet Brent. We had a few two or three hiccups in the road on the drive to FW, FL. But just as the saying is always true...everything happens for a reason and as much as we BOTH hate hearing that over and over and over a million times over, it's so very true!

We picked Brent up at the Eglin Air Force Base Airport which was SUPER Fun and Cool to be at:) We had such an adventurous time getting there!!!! Some laughs. some long good deep talks. very therapeutic. some tears. some car trouble. one wrong turn. one sketchy gas station. BUT wouldn't change one second of it! It was SUCH a fun time with seriously my BEST FRIEND. It's times like these when we really realize how blessed we are for such an a w e s o m e friendship!

The weather yesterday was no less than obviously only GOD could create. Seriously, how do people QUESTION his existence?

We went to dinner at our favorite FUN spot! and NO WAY it didn't dissappoint. Actually was even more fun than the last time and we didn't think it could be anymore fun! BUT it was!!!!

We also went and saw THE HANGOVER last night. reallllllllllllly FUNNY

Okay gotta get myself on the beach!

Bye for now

Hey heyyyy lovebugs.

This weekend was a BLAST and Im truly sad its over:(

Can I p l e a s e just twinkle my nose and skip over this week?

Frannie is going to be OUT of the country. ugh u g h UGH! 

And if you don't know...that means that really has an effect on my life tremendously. My work life. NO GOOD. Anywhoooo I guess what it boils down to is it is just NOT going to be the same. Although I want to wish my week away, I definitely wouldnt want her week to speed by. I hope it goes by oh so slow for her and her boo.

Paint

I've had a fun last two nights behind a paintbrush!

Wednesday after bible study, I stayed up pretty late getting a large piece prepped for a long weekend of painting away. 

Last night I went to a fun Painting event to raise money for scholarships! It was a blast and it was fun hanging with fun friends. 

There were SO many people there. The photo above is just a few of us from the class.

It was such a blast!!!

Who is ready for the weekend?
