I remember when I was a little girl and all I thought about was what it would be like to be a teenager. I wanted to, talk on the phone, have an exciting life, hang out with friends on a regular basis, you know... the things you dreamed about too. Now, I am the age I have always wanted to be and life just isn't as exciting as I had anticipated.
Honestly, life is everything I had dreamed it would be. I have just been too preoccupied waiting for the time my life would get started to realize that it already had. I have wasted my time waiting for what I had dreamed of for years to take place, when in reality I was living my dream the whole time. It's like when you go to a birthday party and you are just so excited to eat the cake, that you don't even realize that the candles have already been blown out, and you have already been handed a piece of cake. You are so busy thinking about what flavor it will be that you don't even take the time to look at the beautifully decorated cake and to thank your friend's mom until the cake is nearly gone.
I'm going to stop and enjoy all the fun games at the party before the cake is passed out. I don't want to miss it. I want to remember eating the cake, and enjoy every bite, because if I don't stop and enjoy it I will be left standing there with a plate full of crumbs, wondering when I'll get to eat the cake.
