What The Heart Wants, The Heart Gets

A dream that you have may come to reality in a different way than you were hoping for

Everybody has desires. Everybody has dreams, goals, and ambitions. We are human. The things that are placed on our hearts are for a reason and should not be forgotten about because we aren't seeing them come to reality. Each individual has specific dreams that are marked out specifically for them. We are all called to a greater purpose. We all have a different calling than our neighbor. It's okay to have different passions, dreams, and desires. No matter how big it may seem, never lose hope and try to be someone you are not. Embrace the callings, gifts, and goals that have been placed heavily on your heart. There is nobody else like you.

Have you ever wondered if the dreams you have had since you were a little kid would actually come to reality? Do you ever get frustrated wanting things to happen so badly and just find yourself getting even more disappointed when they don't? Do you ever wonder what life could be like if one of your dreams came true? How differently your life could be if it did? These are all questions that go through every person's mind, and if you choose to dwell on the negative thoughts, you will just find yourself frustrated, confused, and hopeless.

The dreams, desires, goals, and ambitions that have been placed on our hearts WILL come true with hard work. The desires of our hearts will come alive, all in their perfect timing. You have to believe and trust the process of this journey. Everybody is different, so one person's dream could be the same dream you have, but their dream actually came true before yours did. You have to trust that everybody's journey looks different. A dream that you may have may come to reality in a different way than you were hoping for. You may not even see a desire fulfilled until years later, so always remember to hold on to that dream, don't let go, and keep on fighting the good fight.

What a good feeling it is knowing you've pushed through life holding onto the dreams of you heart, and then one day, it all comes into play, and everything starts to make sense. It is so much more rewarding when you know how long you have pushed through the times of feeling hopeless or desperate, knowing your time would be coming. When it finally happens, there is no confusion. You can fully embrace the fact that the journey was so worth it. It is so rewarding when life throws you surprises that literally make your heart so happy.

I believe everybody has a specific path marked out for them. Each person is made so unique which makes each gifting, calling, passion, and dream so much more different from anybody else. Don't compare yourself to anyone, not even your friends or family. Hold on to the promises in your heart, enjoy the moment, embrace the future, and trust that in its perfect timing, everything will work out how it's supposed to.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
