practice makes perfect

i started 2004 with this belief/ motto: "everything up until now was just practice". i was turning 18, about to graduate high school and go off to college and i thought that little slogan i came up with was just applicable to a few things. namely eduaction and career. not until a little while ago did i know it also referred to him. let's give "him" a name since i always just call him "him". him, from now on will be mr. false pretense. 

i've long held that people are in your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. i thought mr. false pretense was there for the long-haul and then i just thought he was there for that phase of my life to bring me to the next. now i think he also fulfilled a key purpose. he was there for practice. i know i haven't mastered the lesson he was sent to teach but im sooooo ready to take the training wheels off. 

i apologize. i tried to make this make sense so sorry if it doesn't. my mind just works like that sometimes and i gotta get it out...

    Makes sense to me and practice makes better (is what my cheerleading coach used to say). I felt like she was taunting us thinking "you bitches will never be perfect." LOL!

    LOL @ T, but your ramblings made perfect sense to me. HE was just a stepping stone, once you've climbed over, you are more prepared to tackle the next one, unless of course the next one is Mr. OMG, then he wasn't just a stepping stone but the whole damn mountain and you've reached the peak!!!
