Last Night was The Reputation Celebration in NYC
First of all. I didn’t deserve to go to this amazing event. So there’s that. I was extremely lucky and extremely blessed. As I’m sure many of you know, there was an invitation extended.
And I shouldn’t have been chosen. There are so many more wonderful people on here who deserve it. But I was BLESSED by the wonderful, selfless @staytreacherous because she WAS invited. And she asked me to be her plus one.
The funny thing about it is we had never met before and were only talking for about 2 or 3 weeks!!
Staytreacherous is followed by Taylor. She posts and reblogs an utterly SELFLESS post which states for the most part:
“I want everyone to be able to feel how it feels to get noticed by Taylor Swift so if you ask me, I will not only reblog you, but I’ll put it in my queue a couple of times.”
My jaw dropped when I saw this post and, of course, I introduced myself and asked her nicely to reblog me. She did. Like 20 times!!! The difference between me and the other people who asked her to reblog, is that I didn’t feel right asking her for this favor and leaving it be. She was such a kind person, I didn’t want her to think I was using her. That wasn’t my intention at all, after all she’s a Swiftie too. So we kept talking and gushing about reputation. We finally added each other on Snapchat and not three days later she asked me if I could go to NYC.
So the point I’m trying to make with this post is that
Meaning, if you have an opportunity to do something kind, to return a favor, to welcome someone with open arms, DO IT. You’ll never know where you might end up.
I ended up blessed and lucky beyond all reason, but I didn’t expect it. I didn’t hope for it.
It just happened. I met Taylor Swift and I didn’t deserve it yet.
But I’m oh so thankful for the opportunity. Thank you @staytreacherous … I’ll never be able to thank you enough.
