My friend Megan said that she considers herself a Hopeful romantic and not a Hopeless romantic, and it really got me thinking about a lot of stuff.

I've been through a lot, and I've learned a lot. I've grown as a result.

She also has helped me to see the positive in all the negative or all of the hardships. And she did so again recently when I was concerned about an issue.

And I guess the best things really do happen to us when we are least expecting it, or least prepared for it.

I can honestly say that I couldn't have accomplished what I have without my friends and some of my family.

And I can honestly say, that I would've missed so many signs and opportunities romantically and emotionally had it not been for Megan calling me out and helping me through.
