{Peace.}

I spend a lot of my time looking at things that I want or places I wish I could go, and stressing about where in the world is carmen san diego  my life is going. I seem to always convince myself that just doing what I'm doing today is not enough.

Over Spring Break I went to Texas to see my family and we made our way to this hole in the wall bar on the water where you grab your beer out of a bucket and they fry you shrimp for free. While I was sitting there laughing with my family in an old t-shirt with my hair piled in a messy bun, drinking a cold beer, listening to the old man strumming his guitar and singing and feeling the breeze come off the water, I felt a sense of peace that I couldn't remember feeling for a really long time. My life is not perfect, and I struggle a lot to maintain balance and battle with my own bad habits and lose sight of what matters too easily. But at the end of the day, I'm just glad I have a family who helps me to remember the things in life that matter most, and that at my core, I really am a simple girl. If I've got support, my health, people to laugh with, and maybe a Coors Light, I've pretty much got it made.
