Time flies

So lately I've just been focusing on my journey and what not. I didn't even realize I have not written anything for a while. But you know what's awesome?  It's my 6 month monthaversary! That means 6 months since I started this journey! I can't believe it's been that long already! I am so proud of where I am today. Of course I'm not where I want to be but look at where I came from?! It's so awesome to see progress!

Everyday I find something new to work on. My newest goal is not letting people walk all over me. I want to be someone people can depend on but not someone people take advantage of.

I look back and think, I'm so happy for the bad things that have happened to me, they pushed in a direction I don't think I could have ever gone if it weren't for my situation. I learn more about me everyday and this journey of discovery has opened new doors and allowed me to meet some amazing people.

Just remember everything that happens, happens for a reason. At the time I was not sure what the reason was but I know now it was so I could become a stronger, happier person.

Whatever is the igniter to your flame, don't let it fizzle out. A fire was instilled in you for a reason, so follow it, feed it, and discover you. Don't wait for someone else to make you happy, make yourself happy. 

Another new goal of mine...not caring what people think of me. As far as fashion and things like that I don't really care what people think, I dress for comfort. What matters to me is what people think about me as a person. It bothers me when someone hates me or thinks I'm a bad person. It tears me apart if someone thinks I'm a bad friend or a horrible girlfriend. But I can't dwell on what other people think, it's not my decision to make, it's theirs and just like I always say everyone is entitled to their opinion. That includes their opinion about me. I have to be happy with the people that do like me and let go of the ones that don't. 

It takes work and everyday I will need to put in effort. But to see how far I've come in 6 months is astonishing to me. I'm glad I started this all and I hope I inspired others to do the same. It is so worth it, I promise. Celebrate every step, every accomplishment, every goal...you deserve it, you earned it!

Stay awesome everyone. You guys are so wonderful.
