Whether it be a long-waited vacation back to your hometown or meeting your significant other, there's always a reason why you were meant to be put on hold. It's usually during those waiting times where growth occurs the most because I know I did (not the relationship part - yet). If you have a knack for planning and anticipating, I think we should be friends HAHAH. But, there are some things in life that are beyond our control, and learning to let go is both the hardest yet most liberating thing you will ever experience. Don't sweat the small stuff, and control the controllables. You never know what you had until it's gone. I remember I had my last dinner as a complete family with my late dad, and he told me the one thing that stuck with me to this day. I hope I can raise a family of my own to be just like his, just like mine right now.
