It's My First Time

The core of man's spirit comes from new experiences. -Christopher McCandless

I woke up this morning to the smell of pancakes and freshly brewed coffee.  Ah, yes.  Chivalry still exists.  The snow is falling hard and my heart is full.  I'm feeling so very lucky to be in this winter wonderland with my sweet man friend.  Wednesday, I am dreading you.  The past six days have been filled with several firsts.  My first karaoke performance.  // I sang Genie In A Bottle by Christina Aguilera. // My first front flip.   My first time eating Star Crunch and Oh's.  My first time hitchhiking.  In fact, the whole reason I'm even experiencing these firsts is because of my first snowboarding lesson in December, 2010.  If I had decided to ski instead, I would not be here right now.  It's the butterfly effect in action.  Every time we try something outside of our comfort zone, the possibility for something fabulous to happen in our lives occurs.  Don't let fear get in the way.  The next time a new opportunity opens itself up to you, take it.  Do that sky-dive.  Anything can happen.
