Mountain vs volcano

I woke up with this analogy in my head... At 5:30 am! I've had a lot of talks lately with the people in my life and I realized something; you're either A volcano or a mountain. Stay with me... This made a lot of sense so early in the morning.

Mountains are beautiful. A place where people find solace, rest, relaxation. Who doesn't love mountains? Even just looking at them brings peace. Volcanoes, on the other hand, look nice, but they're explosive, leaving a mess and wreckage in their path.

I think we've all been volcanoes in our lifetime, hurting people in our path. I know I have and for that I am sorry. BUT it's up to us to realize the pain we've caused, apologize and become a person that others trust, can depend on.

Are you a mountain? Or are you a volcano?

Living and learning

I think it's easy to loose yourself in the busyness of life.
I decided to create this blog as a way to help me put my thoughts in words and to figure out what I'm all about.
Tonight, I dyed my hair a red wine color. epic fail is the only way to describe it!
I wanted to be wild so I got a punky color. It was really red.... As I washed it out, it made the bathtub look like There was serious bloodshed. It was bad. Really bad. I will be buying a giant bottle of bleach for the walls, shower curtain,and tub tomorrow! I won't be dying my hair again soon... Unless it was outside so I could just hose it off into the grass :)
I colored my nails today too. My toes were planned. My finger nails were to cover uo the hair dye.
So recreating myself has been a bit of a blunder today... But that's okay! We live and we learn!
