When You Find Your Person

They are the missing piece to the puzzle.

When You Find Your Person
hinessight

Throughout your life, you have relationships, and each one is different from the last. The first one you think to yourself that he is the one, but as time goes on the two of you grow apart and realize you don't want the same things out of life. Then the next few are a little bit different, but only because you have learned what you needed, what to expect, and how to handle situations differently in your relationships to come. Then finally someone special walks into your life, and makes you believe in true love and sole mates. When you find your person.

At first you have no idea who this person is, and have no expectations on what the future may hold. What you do know is that from the very first time you got into the truck you just felt right. From that moment on, it was like you found that mysterious piece to the puzzle. The unspoken understanding, the undying flame, the match to your crazy, and the one who mellows you out... That's your person.

When you walk into the grocery store to buy ice cream, there is no doubt on what ice cream to get. You both automatically know what type to buy each other, and to just go a head and pick up that pack of orange Trident because you're almost positive that the last pack is completely devoured. Your person is someone who can go to any restaurant without you and order for you. Whattaburger? "Yes ma'am, may I get a Whattaburger. No tomato, add bacon with a side of tater sticks and a large Witch Doctor?" Which is funny because the first time they ordered you something crazy like a witch doctor, you just looked at them and wondered if they had lost their mind. In all actuality, they know you so well, that they ordered it because it is all of your favorite things mixed into one. Chipotle, that is not a problem either... Because the two of you eat the same exact thing. They know you, and sometimes it's a little scary.

They know the right times to let you cool down and when to not leave you by yourself. You can never lie about how you are feeling, or even lie in general because they know you too well. They know when your mad, and even what type of mad you are. Pissed off at the world? They know it's either margaritas, chips and queso... Or if its real bad they know that a night cuddled in bed watching Netflix is the best way to comfort you. Your person pushes to you your limits, whether its testing your patients or if it is supporting you so that you can become the best version of yourself. The best version part shouldn't be hard for them because, they know your schedule better than their own.

Words can't describe the deep connection between you, and it seems like everywhere you go you have some memory with them tied to that place. When you are not with them it is like everywhere you look, there is something that reminds you that you are missing a piece of you. But when you are with them, it's like you are inseparable. This person fills your life with laughter and endless love. If you haven't found your person yet; just wait and don't force it, because the universe has a way of bringing you together. Be patient.

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
