Sometimes, I admit, I take the here and now for granted. But after reading my old posts, I realize just how much I have grown... I had so much hurt and anger buried inside me, a mere seven months ago... That one of those fascinating things about time... It's hard to see how much someone is growing if you just look at the here and now. But looking over great spans of time, such as I just did, I can easily see how far I've come. And, to be quite honest, I am very happy with life right now. Sure, it is SO far from perfect... But why should I complain? I am living! I have a heart that is beating... That in itself is such a miracle and blessing.
There's that word again: miracle. But this time, it's not used in such a negative context, is it? Miracles surround us every day.
A lot has gone on the last few days alone, especially since my most recent post (excluding the one I posted earlier today). On Tuesday, October 11th, I had surgery. I had surgery to remove my gallbladder. This was an incredible blessing, as I have been experiencing pain and issues for over a year because of it... And now it's gone! True, I am in pain because of the incisions, but those will fade away soon. But I will no longer be held back by my gallstones.
The other major thing I did was I asked someone to Winter Formal. Yes... You didn't read that incorrectly: I asked a boy to Winter Formal. I know, right? I actually asked him! Now I'm just waiting for his answer... And I hope he says yes! That would basically make my life...! It's been lots of fun, watching him trying to figure it out. And then, after he had figured out who it was, it got quite funny talking to him.. because neither of us mentioned that we knew, but I could see it in his eyes. It's all good fun. But, he's making me wait for his answer, because it took me 9 days to ask him.. (I gave him a clue each day). I guess I asked for it. Oh well!
Just overall, life has been pretty good. I have been having fun and all, and I've been doing alright in school. I can feel that things are going to be getting better soon. I just have to worry about recovery. I have about 4 more days until school starts again, so I need to get better.
I am looking forward to some good days, though. Let it begin!
