I haven’t been really sure about what to write about for this post. I’ve gone through my list of possible topics, It has ranged from surviving the holidays, new years resolutions to adventures in 2015. I honestly can’t figure out what to write about, so I’ve decided to just let myself pour my heart out completely in this post. I usually pour my heart out in my journals and today, I decided to let you catch a glimpse of what I am feeling.
I am feeling good. Life is an adventure. It gets really hard sometimes and other times it’s a major high. The one thing that I have learned is that it’s okay to be afraid of uncertainty but that you have to embrace it. Accept it with open arms. You can’t live your life filled with fears. They come in all shapes and sizes, through different experiences, moments and memories. Fears are apart of us and we cannot let them control us.
Life will always have it’s hard, sad, gruesome moments. There will be times when you feel like all hope is gone. You find yourself on the precipice of giving up. I tell you, don’t give up just yet. Just when you’ve reached your low point, something or someone will give you another glimmer of hope. This is why it is important to smile and be kind towards others. Everyone has their demons, everyone is fighting a battle. Be kind. The world is losing that. Everyone is fighting against each other while attempting to battle it out with our inner demons. It is a never-ending war. I say, love yourself and then love others. Be supportive. The good times will come.
This world is beautiful, moments have made it chaotic. We’ve lost trust in each other, we’ve lost our humanity at some points. We cannot forget that through all the bad stuff, goodness comes out of it. You will smile, laugh, find new loves, go on new adventures. You will make new friends, you will say goodbye to old ones. You will move towns, move to a different country. You will fall in love, fall out of love. You will live a new life. You will experience old and new things. You will be you.
Sometimes we get so lost in our own little world and we have such a hard time finding ourselves back on our path. Sometimes it can be too late and we’ve lost people outside of our world because we were focused on our goals, our dreams that we forgot to allow others to partake in helping us achieve them. Sometimes you still have time to salvage and reconnect with old friends. Sometimes you’ll just have to make new ones. Live a good life. I decided I wanted to live my life the way I want people to describe it in my eulogy. Weird right? But it’s the best way to know what kind of person I want to be. I want to live my life to the best of my ability, I want to go on adventures, I want to love and be loved. I think we all do.
Don’t be afraid to show the world who you are, what you can do. Be your own glimmer of hope and inspire others.
Life. The best adventure we can possible have.
