In the past seven months my whole world has changed. I am a completely different person. I am so much happier now. And it isn't that life has gotten any easier. It's that I have brought myself to overcome the 'junk' that brings me down. Yea, it's easier to sit around and complain about how I hate who I am, and how I hate my life, but that's not what I want for my life. What I am searching for is complete happiness, so each day I work through the trials. Each day I tell myself I can make it. Each day I make myself get up and go to school, no matter how easy it is to back down and not go. And each day, it gets a little easier. If I don't like something about who I am, I can change it.
Life is beautiful. And it should never be about 'just making it'. 'Getting by' is not enough. I want to make a difference. I want to know that I did everything I wanted to in my life. I live with no regrets, because I know that everything I have done was what I wanted, and it has made me who I am. I don't know how to explain to other people the change I have made in the way I think about life. I do not believe that life is here for us to 'just get by'. This isn't 'practice.' We only get one chance to prove to the world who we are and what we can do. We only get one chance to make a difference.
Living life is the best thing I could do. Doing things the way I want, saying what needs to be said, being whoever I want to be is what makes me happy. I live in the moment. I remember my mistakes, and I dream tomorrow into reality.
