What I Learned About Love and Life from Boy Meets World

I have faced changes and challenges in friendship, family and of course, love. And I have not always had thirty minutes to solve my problems or embrace my rewards. A few stories in my life have been neat “wrap it up in one episode” situations, others are an arc, many have lasted a full season and some remain to-be-continued.  What I have learned through all of this though is that the people you have casted as main supporting characters in your life have a powerful effect on your story. The parts they play can better you, strengthen you and even give your character more depth.

My life did not come with a script and I am improvising much of as I go along. I do not always know the ending of one episode or the beginning of a new season. But I do know that my core people are key players and have expanded my dialogue of love.
