My Pursuit of Happiness

I'm pretty sure everyone has that one mysterious person in their life that they can never seem to get out of their mind. Now that i'm back in school, that person has popped back in my life again. That one mysterious person might happen to be a silly crush. He's one of those people who happens to make me smile whenever he appears online in my chat box. But in my mind, the constant reminder that high school is almost over keeps penetrating through my mind. Should I make an effort? Girls just can't make the first move...


Being a child of God is the greatest thing in my life. Everyday, I look forward to building my relationship with God because he is the one who allows me to be genuinely happy. I know that when I have nothing in this world, I will always have him. Before every single performance the same thought always pops up in my head. "This is for God, for I am praising him through my music". I used to take my skill for granted. I found it to be a way for me to shine on the stage when in fact it was a challenge of whether I was able to be humble. From my freshman year of high school, I stopped comparing myself to others. I strived to do my very best for I knew that God has a plan for me. Now i'm stuck on my practice chair thinking to myself. "What am I going to do with my life?" I have to declare my major in less than two months. I'm sure every person is stuck in this situation at one point in their life. 

I am probably the most quiet, least outgoing; well behaved teenager out there. Every day after school, I simply go home, practice cello, do my homework, and go to the gym. I listen to every single piece of advice my mom tells me and I never talk back. Like ever. Yet when i'm by myself, I am the most independent girl out there. I'm not sure what i've done to deserve such a beautiful life because I am satisfied with every single aspect of myself. I continue to work to become a better person each and every day. God does not owe me anything. He never will. 

For I am blessed to be a child a God. I am blessed to be able to have such an amazing life full of things to look forward too. I will not turn away from obstacles. I know this year has so much to offer me and I know I will look back and praise God for every single moment of it.
