Things change. Life goes on. It’s inevitable. If you could’ve stopped time at one point in your life, would you? When bad things happen you wish you could go back to when you were happier. But you don’t realize how happy you were until things change. Things need to change though. That’s how you grow up, find the love of your life, have kids, live your life. At one point you realize that everytime you cry, or get angry or frustrated, you’re changing, growing.
I was a completely different person a year ago. And I can’t take all the credit for me changing. I always say that I “cut the bad out of my life, and left the good”. Every struggle, every tear, has been worth it. I don’t have to fight to stay close with the people close to me. Not everything in my life is planned, but with them, it’s simple. To wake up in the morning and know it’s gonna be a good day before it even starts is incredible to me. A year ago, it was not like this. Not even close.
Things change because they need to. Even if it hurts, it needs to happen. I finally realized that you make your own happiness. It doesn’t come easily, and they are always gonna be struggles ahead. But how you view those struggles, and how you handle them, is what truly makes a person who they are.
