At a very young age, I gave up believing that anything was
possible. After reading many books, surrounding myself by positive people, and
knowing in my heart that life was only worth living was by being happy. I
finally started living life and created a person I would be proud to meet.
I am who I am today because of my experiences, mistakes that
turned into lessons, and people that have come into my life to teach me what I
needed to learn, regardless if they are still in my life or not. I have come to
realize that people come into my life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.
When they leave, there is no reason to be sad, they have served their purpose.
I am grateful for the things I have, live in the present moment,
never regret my past, because I can't
change it, and I always strive to do and be the best at everything I do.
I get tattoos because I feel like it, shop at thrift stores
because it not only agrees with my bank account but a great find is challenging
enough to keep me interested. I read for fun, not because I am forced to
deliver a report. I don't do anything because I 'should', I follow my instincts
and do things because I want to.
In my early twenties, I thought I had myself all 'figured
out'. With my thirties just a few months away, I could not be more at peace
with myself, my personality, and my strong instincts. I made, and still make,
mistakes but I learned from them and they have shaped me into the human being I
am this very day. I live with no regrets, no shoulda-coulda-woulda's, and no
what ifs.
I have many things I still want to accomplish, but for the moment,
I am right where I need to be.
