No regrets...

I've been thinking for the past couple of weeks how boring my life actually is. like i do nothing. at all. And my life is full of regrets.. i was watching the video of Kim K's letter to herself and it got me thinking of what i would write to my younger self, I have too many regrets.. i want to start living so i was scrolling through my pinterest and i found this picture which summarized what i had been feeling so im expanding on it for the rest of you :) ENJOY..

Ever since I was a little girl I've wanted to go somewhere..... somewhere where the world was perfect, where there was no fighting or war or people telling me how imperfect I was/am...... I used to share a room with my brother when we were super little and when we went to bed at night we used to pretend that our beds were spaceships and that our minds were space..... we'd go and pick up all our friends and then go off to meet up at anywhere I guess but it was somewhere that we could just get away..... Looking back I don't know what sparked that fairy-tale but I do know that what ever it was it was and still is one of my best memories of my childhood.... 

\\TRAVEL//

All my life i've wanted to go to Paris. But i also have found myself wanting to go to America for a gap year lately so i think that really i just want to travel, to explore more, to embrace my inner child.. like the other night at youth we were playing hide and seek, in the dark, and it was sooo fun because i love just exploring and finding new things.., discovering. 

\\ADVENTURE// 

I've been finding that you dont have to travel to have an adventure.. ive been reading through the Trixie Belden series (which i was absolutely obsessed with when i was younger) and they had adventures in their own backyards.. anyways so near the end of last year i posted my bucket list of things i wanted to do before i finished school (meaning uni because there's no way ill finish it all by the time i leave high school.. and uni counts as high school doesn't it? ) and so many of them are literally do-able in Auckland.. what im getting at is i want to have an unforgettable adventure, in my own backyard.

\\BLESS//

My greatest goal in life is to show the forgotten and helpless that the world isn't just made up of haters, and that there are people out there who care about others. I've been really encouraged lately by the work of Hannah Brencher. She heads up a company that anonymously sends out love letters to people who have been nominated by their friends and family. The letters are written to absolute strangers by strangers.. i personally think its such a cool idea and have started carrying a couple around in my bags with me to share or place where i feel needed... 

\\DON'T BE SORRY//

A quote I love says to live life with no regrets and I guess in a way that's what I do...... im trying really hard to minimize the amounts of times I say 'oh why did I do that' and instead say '' ok I did that how can I fix it or live with it" ........... people, myself included need to learn that everyone makes mistakes and that nobody is perfect.
