I realize that keeping up a blog needs a lot of time involved.

I hadn't blogged in over a year. June 4, 2012 was my last. I did a study abroad that summer. Then I went back to school, and made poor life choices, got into a relationship that became toxic (to say the least), and that's how the entire year went from then on.
I made myself miss an opportunity to take an advertising internship this summer in L.A. Yes, Los Angeles. Would have perfect for being closer to my goal. I've kicked my ass (in my mind) for that one too much.
But I've learned that life isn't just about your goal. It's about how you choose to get there. I decided on mental/emotional/spiritual health before diving in. I'll be better for it, after stabilizing my life--the consequence of letting it get out of hand in the first place--and continue on so that I can truly be happy later with it.
Goals are never out of sight. There may be set backs if you make poor/immoral choices, but there is always a way back to them. And the only healthy time to get them, is when you are healthy.

The relationships in your life... use them. Missing those that matter most to you, and dealing with the heartbreak, the emotion: this is power. Use it. Channel it into your goals. Let your sadness and heartbreak fuel your fire and passion in life.
