Today

Today I discovered that I can do anything...seriously.

I may not have had a very troubled life thus far, but I know that I can weather any storm because my roots grow deep.
I haven't been giving myself enough credit lately & this evening I gave myself a great big hug that I really, really deserved.

Today, despite everything else, I really love and am proud of who I am- I know that I am a living, breathing, thinking, feeling person. I am a real person & I am strong. Being afraid of things doesn't make me any less brave: I'm brave enough to be myself.
I really know that I am going places and tomorrow is going to be a bright and shining day.

Tomorrow, I'm going to work even harder to become a better person.

If you don't mind me asking, what was it exactly that happened today that caused this revelation?

I saw someone today who I haven't seen in a little over a month- someone who once meant the world to me.
Things we awkward and strange and I felt like this person was acting and being fake the entire time I was around. And I felt like I no longer meant anything to this person (which was painful) but I walked away with a sense of pride in knowing that I am who I am and I love myself for it. I don't need to be fake...I can be me.

There is a lot to it, and if you have any further questions, I will totally let you know. just shoot me an email at plymouthweather@gmail.com

I'm glad that you seem to have found your sense of self again. Just remember to be true to who you are.
