So today I have two things that I want you to check out. The first is a You Tube that my mom sent me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCmZ2jrQooE It's called, "The Missing piece meets the big O." This made me cry (not too big of a surprise because I'm kinda emotional) but I think everyone will get something from this piece. The second thing I want you to check out is a song by JoJo that I feel contributes to this video. The song is called, "Exceptional."
To me both the video and song made me take a look at myself and really question whether or not I am completely happy with who I am and if I appreciate all of the things I have to offer the world, my family, my friends, and someday a significant other. The video is about the journey we take to find that one special person that we will spend the rest of our lives with. It shows us how many times we come across something that seems like the perfect fit, but for some reason, we can't quite make it work. I think that sometimes we spend too much trying to figure out our perfect fit, questioning ourselves and wondering what's so wrong with us that we can't fit in anywhere. Is this the right question we should be asking ourselves? This video made me realize that maybe it's not my fault for not finding my perfect fit yet. Instead of looking for that fit, maybe I should try and fit with myself. Maybe I should be my main focus and then once I am rolling out on my own, someday I might just stumble upon my other half and instead of fitting to make one, we roll through life together.
Please listen to exceptional, because I really think it helps make us realize how amazing we are just the way we are. Seems like an easy concept to grasp, but boy is it hard. Probably the hardest thing I have ever had to tackle. But I can do it and I will. Starting today, anyone who wants to join me. The challenge...Love who you are, take your own journey towards finding out exactly what great things you have to offer this world. You are EXCEPTIONAL!
