Are You In Need of a Sewing Kit?

I'd apologize for not keeping up on the blog last week, but it is silly to apologize for something you aren't actually sorry for. I'm human, I get busy and distracted.
To start off, let's throw something out there. You can't shake hands with clenched fists. For you over logical thinker, well duh! It's physically impossible to shake hands with clenched fists. Enless you're first bumping, that is. But, physically you can't either. It has been said that once you get bit by a snake you have to suck out all the poision. Well, that's what I've been busy doing with my life, sucking out all the posioin. Thankfully though, I was not bit by a snake.

I don't recall why, how, or when it happened. Maybe it's that when you've found so much happiness in life that you get greedy and want een more. Or maybe I just felt the need to share it with people who meant a lot to me at one point. I suppose I just woke up one day, ate my cherrios like I always do, (Apple Cinnamon Crunch is where it's at) and decided, "Hey Kara! How about you do something useful today besides eat, layout, workout, and text!" It appears that that morning my cherrios had no been pissed in, because I decided my activity would be to ment. More like a project, because mending in one day's time is quite a challange. Mending.. hm. Time to break the sewing kit out, we have some things to stitch up. A little more challanging than eating, laying out, working out, and texting. But, what the heck, when's a little effort here and there gonna hurt anyone?

So that's what I proceeded to do that day. Make amends with people who are no longer as big of parts of my life as they once were. In some cases it wasn't even my place to be the one to put the effort into making amends, but I was the bigger person. Sometimes you just have to forgive and move on. People are gonna hurt you, get over it. You're gonna hurt people, they'll have to get over it. I also put my foot out to make amends with people of the past whom I had hurt. Most of my amends have been made, surprisingly enough I didn't have too many to make. But, this is life, and not all the amends I wanted to make have been made. If only I knew what was stopping me..

Maybe today you need to break the sewing kit out too and stitch up some wounds? No one is promising that anyone of us will be here tomorrow. And it's never satisfying to leave the heart on a bad note. Live your life with arms wide open.

Stay chill, xoxo.
