Throughout life we experience moments that we remember forever. They may not always be in the forefront of your mind, but they creep back to you slowly, and unexpectedly. I call these my "more often than not" moments. They tend to be the memories that make you think to yourself "did that really happen to me?"
At 22 years old I have experienced this feeling a lot more than I would like to admit. Every now and then I enjoy sharing these moments, and that is what I am going to do through this blog. Here are just a few examples of some of my moments. Every now and then I will post more, and I encourage you to share yours with me as well.
That moment when you are walking through the grass during a beautiful summer day. then all of a sudden you feel it. The horrifying sharp sting on the side of your foot. Fearing the worst you start panicking, your heart starts racing, and as if you have to control over yourself you scream "Get it off!! Get it off!!". As everyone stares at you in confusion, you gather up the courage to swat at whatever it is that is trying to eat you alive. As you look down you realize that it is just a prickle from one of the bushes you must have walked though. At that moment you try to play it off as nothing, but you have already created such a scene that no one will let you live it down.
That moment when you are slowly but surely making your way through your to do list, and all of a sudden you hit the wall. You feel like you are drained, and can't go on. It wasn't but a minute ago that you felt invincible, like you could get everything done but now here you, tired and cranky. You start thinking in your head "I want to go home. I want to lay in my bed. I want to watch a movie. I want to do anything but this." So you pack yourself up and head home, facing the inevitable truth that you are no match for the wall, and you will just have to rest up and try to tackle it tomorrow.
