"The various features and aspects of human life, such as longevity, good health, success, happiness, and so forth, which we consider desirable, are all dependent on kindness and a good heart." - The Dalai Lama

i've grown up so much in the past few months. moving out was a big change in my life. i've had to sacrifice so much. i pay rent and haven't been able to buy myself anything nice lately. but this is a part of growing up, needs over wants. it took me a while to learn but i'm finally realizing it. i love the feeling of being able to walk past H&M and forever 21 without feeling the need to go purchase something, it feels sophisticated and lady like. this is a new beginning for me, my love for material things are still there but my urge to absolutely have it has gone.
