let's see how far we've come

So where do I start? Not really an eventful day. Well, I mean, not many events. No more than usual. If we aren't measuring eventfulness in number of events and rather magnitude, then, well, today was extremely eventful. 

I'll spare you the nitty gritty. 

What matters isn't what happens to us, but what we are inspired to do because of it. 

It is nice to see how many people reach out when they think you need it. Thanks guys. 

I just wish I knew what to say to capture your attention. I could talk about time, about perspective, about love, or about being okay. I'm just not sure that I'm all that equipped to do so. 

What I know about time: Time is infinite, but the time we have is very finite. So much so that we don't know how much we have. Time heals all things and time also changes all things. (In varying degrees at least.) Time is constant, it just doesn't seem that way. Also, there is always time to reflect, but never time to regret. You can even reflect on bad memories so long as you don't regret them. Time is unpredictable. 

What I know about love: It's out there. There's a lot of it. It's really good. It can hurt really bad. If you don't give it a fighting chance then fighting for it doesn't make much sense. Love can be one-sided. It can be two-sided. Hell, in some crazy cases it can have three or more sides. Love is one of those things you have to believe in even when you don't see it. It's there and you have to believe it. You should fight for what you love. Love is crazy and like time, ever-changing. Love will make you miss out on certain things, but you miss out knowing that what you love was worth it. Love is unpredictable. 

What I know about perspective: Life is all about it. Love, time, and being okay all change depending on your perspective. Taking different perspectives helps you see things you couldn't before. 

What I know about it all being okay: It will all be okay. It'll take time, it'll take love, and it might even take perspective, but it will be okay. 

i.e.) Today was a beautiful day and nothing can change that. The sun must've read the blog and decided to give me something to smile about.
