freedom to explore.

 in the midst of talking about life, someone said to me the other day:

brittney, it's your turn to explore the world and find your own way.

i watched a movie tonight and a certain wise man gave this advice,
  find out what you really want, 
  and learn how to ask for it. 

brittney, do you know what do you really want?

after spending the last two years figuring out who i am,
   (so that's why i do the things i do),
after spending the last year learning how to be honest about life,
   (trusting people with my fragile heart again).
after spending the last semester actually applying what i was learning
   (oh communication, you've taught me so much).

it's time to add a new phase to my ever-learning life...
to dive into the process of figuring out what i actually do want.
& at the same time, figuring what i certainly do NOT want.

brittney, do not be intimidated by an unknown future. 
celebrate it. enjoy it. LIVE in it! 

so here's to the freedom to explore...
to figuring out what i really want,
and learning how to ask for it.
