One of the most fascinating things about spending a whole year off of social media was that I realized just how many true connections I really have. Over the past few years, I've gained thousands of phone numbers in my contacts. Thousands of selfies with people I just met that same day. No matter how many connections I have online, the realest connections are the ones that answer my call when i need help or when i haven’t reached out in a while.
To be frank it's very seldom that I ask for help when I need it.Lately, I have been asking for help. Sometimes being vulnerable gives me the most strength and to swallow my ego and reach out to those ahead of me, above me, and at a level that I aspire to be on. Do these people help most of the time? No. Am I surprised? No. Do I take responsibility for this? Yes. To be real it gets discouraging on this journey sometimes. Then life throws a wrench in the whole process and it kind of forces me to sit down and be with the moment and really grasp it for what it is. I realize that everything happens for a reason because I choose to believe so, to give this moment a reason. I love my life, all of the ups and all of the downs, for in every moment there is a seed. In that seed there is an exact opposite of that seed's equivalent but on the other end of the spectrum. It’s up to me to plant that seed & nurture it daily.
