Living. Loving. Being happy. Peace. Understanding. No limits. College. Finding myself. Enhancing life. Being a leader. Learning. Fighting. Being. Giving. Receiving. Seeing. Believing.
You all know me - when I start thinking, I immediately want to blog about it. Good thing you’re all here to read it and put up with me! ;)
Anyway, I got to thinking about how everyone always says that life is what we make it. Or life is what we want it to be. Essentially, it’s true. We control our destiny - no one else. Think about it.. you can really be whoever you want to be. No one can force you to avoid expression, or force you to be someone you’re not. Yes, you could give in to peer pressure or be someone you’re not to gain attention or fulfill someone elses’ wishes, but that’s a decision you have to be willing to make. It’s difficult to decide who you want to be. Everyone goes through those phases where life takes us by storm and the strong ‘you’ gets washed away.
It’s happened to me several times. I still don’t know exactly who I am, but I’m definitely living and learning.
Just don’t be afraid to try new things. To find what you’re good at. To avoid things you dislike. To show others your strong characteristics. To speak your mind. To be who you really want to be.
“To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. ” {e.e. cummings, 1955}
Always fight. You owe it to yourself.
