Can you believe it’s already May? I’m so (so, so SO) excited for the next few months. Sunshine, colorful flowers, a trip to NYC and California, and catching up on some reading.

Glorious summer, bring. It. On.

Anyways, onto today’s read: the time I gave up being a model…

This particular “life-lesson” left a bad taste in my mouth for quite a few years after (but not for the reasons you might think). I’ll get to that in a minute though.

Here’s the thing.

Every now and again we’re given moments. Pivotal moments. The kind where your decision will forever change your life. For better or worse, these moments hold a sacred place in the plot-line of your life.

This was one of those moments.

I think we all have a door in our heart that’s left unlocked for someone else.

We leave the door slightly open and wait for this person to walk through it. Some of us wait years before we close the door, while others never fully close it.

We spend our lives waiting for someone who may never show up for us. Reason? There’s no reason involved — reason left a long time ago.

The heart wants what the heart wants, right?

the door in your heart leaves a gap in your life

Where was I? Ah yes, the door.

Sometimes we think waiting is an indication of our love — of the love we think we’ll have in the future; and maybe it is. Then again, maybe it isn’t. (But that’s not really the point.)
