“I am not interested in money, I just want to be wonderful.”
— Marilyn Monroe
I tend to fade into the background, but sometimes the greatest things come when you aren't even looking. Dancing saved my soul, I have a serious case of wanderlust, and my life is a quiet mess. I love it anyway.
Just me.

This is my wonderful mother. I’m trying to win her a free massage for Mother’s Day, so if you could go to this page: http://www.facebook.com/Totalimagesalonandspa and then like my wall post about her, please and thank you!
My name is Kailyn, btw.
Money.
I used to really desire the success of money and titles. My goals were about getting through college, getting a solid career, and then gaining the money to do things. I imagined a really nice house and other things that would be … success. If I wasn’t working on achieving those, I felt like a failure.
Now I’m realizing that none of that matters as much. Yeah, I’ll still do what I need to do - but now I’m saving for something different. I’m done letting my “goals” come at the cost of just enjoying simple things.

Got this from Renegade Rockers Anniversary jam.

— Anne Tucker
This was the greatest lesson anyone ever taught me. Sometimes things just … are. You can’t change it, you can’t mend it, you just embrace it. Let it be.

A Lesson on Love, Life, and Forever Friendship
This here is my grandpa, he died on August 8, 2008. He met his best friend Wayne in 1944. Wayne still sends my family Christmas cards, but this year he got sick, so his wife hand wrote us this letter:
“This has been a difficult time for us but also a time of blessing. There have been so many tough days but God has blessed us with so much since Wayne got so sick last January. Even in the storms there was peace and that still small voice guiding me. I miss going to my bible study and quilting ministry get togethers, but Wayne needs me right now, those things can wait on God’s timing for me. I wish your entire family the most joyous family Christmas ever. Love, Adele and Wayne.”
I really hope our generation doesn’t get so caught up in technology/whatever that we lose friendships, relationships, and people like this.
