47/365 things you’ve shown me

1. Cajun food
2. That rice can go with practically anything 
3. That you don’t actually have to get to the airport three hours early in order to successfully board your flight and make it to your destination. 
4. Off roading takes a lot more skill than just having a Jeep and a wench. 
5. That the good moments in life should be savored, like a good fine wine. Slowly and thoroughly and not frantically in order to get to the next thing. 
6. Life is not as black and white as people and politics would lead you to believe.
7. People don’t pay nearly as much attention to you as you think they do, so don’t let it stop you from being silly or loud or singing in public. 
8. I’m capable of driving on the interstate 
9. That you can have a past that stays with you because it shaped you, but it doesn’t mean you don’t love what you have now. 
10. Home renovation projects are typically more of a challenge than you can solve with a hammer and random nails. You need power tools. 
11. That if you drive deep into the South you’ll find the ruins of a church all draped in Spanish moss and memory and it’s beautiful. It’s beautiful because you took me there as a surprise knowing that I would love it. 
12. Buying two cans of gluten free cream of mushroom is not enough. 
13. Dad’s need validation too
14. True love really exists 💙
