I've noticed a lot latley the more power you give to things you dont necessarily want or agree or love about life or the day your having, the more control they have over you. The more you forget the good things the less you embrace the good things or strive for them as well. Time to let go of the things that I hate or upset me and focus on the good things and the things I can change.
I have spent so much of my life trying to live up to others expectations, to make people like me or to feel wanted as it were. I have gone and done things for others just to get a long and keep the peace more times than I can count. I have blended in, rather than stand out from the crowd just in fear of judgement, that really I can't run from no matter how I act. So hey as long as I'm ok with me and I'm doing my best who am I not to be myself.
In reference to the last part of above, its true why be anyone but you. You were born to live this life and not to live someone elses. Life begans at the edge of your confort zone and living as true and unguarded you as possible is the truest you can be in this life and for yourself. Stand your ground because hey: "If you dont stand for something, you'll fall for anything."This kinda falls in the whole living for other people thing, I have spent my life for the most part giving people the pen in my life story waiting for them to write what I should do or not do. Or the green light in situations in my life when I'm not totally sure what to do. Though its my life and at the end of the day I have to live with all its actions and in actions a like. Gotta be who I need to be in life to have the life I want to live.
In doing all of the above, I think I can finally find myslef on a path one day where I see the sign above that shows me I've finally found a true fork in the road perhaps that says hey you can continue this way and make it or go that way and go back to how it use to be. Which I guess happens everyday with each choice you make, you just gotta make the ones that work for you. Life is up to you, how you embrace it or don't. How you use it or don't. How you live it, or don't.
......Time to do more in this life of mine, than just exist.
