I am thankful for the person I am becoming...
Two weeks ago someone asked me why it was so important for me to make people see the world differently and I replied by saying, “because”. To be honest, half the things I do, I do just because, sometimes I don’t understand why I do the things I do but I do them because in my heart, it feels like it’s something I should be doing.
Last night I was doing a little cleaning and I found a couple of old journals from three years ago. Its crazy how much time heals and how much a person can change within such amount of short time. In retrospect, I can’t believe that there was a time where I was unsatisfied with life. When I tell my friends about how I used to be pessimistic they are always left in shock because today, I am the complete opposite. It’s truly amazing how much beauty one can find in the world just by changing one’s perspective and I think that’s why I do the things I do and dream the things I do. It’s important for one to learn to embrace the flaws in life and to learn from their mishaps. Today I don’t hold grudges, I don’t stay mad for more than a day, I appreciate everything I am given, and I love the people who are always there for me.
