About Me

My photo
I am Carlie Gilbert. I just recently graduated from Brigham Young University Hawaii. That's right. I lived in Hawaii, which was a dream and half. Now I'm living in Dallas and teaching Elementary School. I would never call myself a fashionista but I do love thrift store shopping or a good retail sale. So this blog is a glace at some of the outfits I have put together. Enjoy!

Lets not wait it out.

*this post is not about my life.
**don't try and figure who I'm talking about.
***I REPEAT this post is not about me.

There are times in your life when you are going to have to put your heart on the line. Which sounds so utterly cliche it makes sick. But there is some depth to this over used saying. Maybe we should all take heed to these words. When you have waited and waited for something for so long, maybe its time you stop waiting and just got for it. Lay it all out on the line. The opposing party can take it or leave it. But regardless of the choice they make, you know that things will at one point go back to how they were. Don't think for one second that you are not good enough. Or not what they are looking for. They have stuck around this long for a reason. Say something before its too late. Because one day you'll look back and think, "if I had only said something...". If things don't go the way you hope, then you can just take Adele's approach and say "Nevermind, I'll find someone like you, I wish nothing but the best for you, too". Do what ever it is that is going to make you happy. Go on a road trip. Bake something delicious. Rock that old t-shirt with pride. Sing your heart out. And go with what you feel. Because at the end of the day, you have to ask yourself, if I were to go in my sleep tonight, is there anything I have left unsaid? Anything I have left undone? If the answer is yes, you better get your scared butt out of bed and get to cracking. Don't spend a ridiculous amount of time making all the wrong choices before you finally get around to making the right one. My last words of advice would be, don't wait.
