I will eventually get to writing a post about my trip to London and Paris last week, but I ran into this on the internet today and felt like it was a really good get to know/self reflecting list of questions.
Here goes (OH and try it yourself!!)
- What is one of the nicest things someone has ever done for you? I struggled a lot as a teenager and I had a best friend Brian (rest his soul), who saw how badly I was struggling and that I didn't value my life at all and he told my parents. Without someone recognizing it and doing something about it, I most definitely wouldn't be where I am today.
- Who/what do you love most and what are you doing about it? I LOVE how fortunate I am to have the family I do, the career I do and the opportunities/health I do. Every day, I try (not always successfully) to make the best of each and every one of those things.
- How do you show yourself that you love yourself? I Crossfit. Taking care of my body and challenging it is the best way for me to show myself love.
- Whose life do you believe you’ve had the biggest impact on? I'd like to say my best friend, Mike, but maybe that's just me being overly confident, but he has had a pretty significant impact on me as well.
- What is home to you? home is anywhere my family is.
- Is there anybody in your life that you would like to forgive, but haven’t? yes, definitely. that is all.
- When is silence more meaningful than words? When someone dies. I've had people close to me die and sometimes a person sitting next to me that loves me is better than any words possible.
- What do you wish you knew? I wish I knew how to magically be better in relationships and what my future holds in that aspect of my life.
- Are there chances you’ve passed up that you wish you’d have taken? I think moving to a new place after college would be it. I'm very happy with my career but I wish I got to experience another place.
- When was the last time you lied? Why? 2 days ago, because I was avoiding the truth. The truth hurt and I took the "easy" way out, which didn't end up being that easy.
- What will you never give up on? LOVE
- What is the most spontaneous thing you’ve ever done? booked and went on a trip to Europe by myself!
- How do you know when it’s time to let go of something or someone? Someone= when that person no longer wants you in their life and/or they are making your life worse more than better. Something= if it's not adding to your life or helping you grow, it's not worth your time.
- What do you wish someone would ask you? what scares me. I rarely get to have that conversation with people.
- What have you witnessed that has strengthened/weakened your faith in humanity? I think that every day we witness good and bad, strengths and weaknesses, but seeing that people are capable of love and compassion in any capacity is what maintains my faith in humanity.
- Are there things that you sometimes pretend you understand, but actually don’t? I usually don't pretend. I'm pretty much secure enough to say that I don't understand something when I don't
- What big lesson could someone learn from your life? Things really do find their way of working themselves out and are usually not what you plan or what you originally want.
- What have you done lately that’s worth remembering? This one is easy right now. I went to London and Paris for the first time. I explored and learned so much in 9 days , I will never forget this trip.
- What is the simplest truth you can say with words? You can never stop growing.
