for the longest time, i used to think that we needed defining moments, experiences, and trials and tribulations in order to find who we are but now that i give it further thought, i'm so wrong. there are so many twist and turns in life that CHANGE who we are. we can't spend our life trying to figure out who we are because just when we think we know, things change. instead, we have the opportunity to do something more benefitial. we have the opportunity to create who we want to do be, do the things we want to do, represent ourselves the way we want to be represented.
the other day i was talking to a friend. this friend mentioned that "this" is the way they are. they explained their relationship, childhood. etc. and i couldn't help but feel like that was such a poor excuse for not taking control of their life. if there is something that we don't like about ourselves, it wont be easy to change, but being able to notice your faults is already the first step. You can't just acknowledge that they are there, you need to change the things you want to be changed. you have the ABILITY to change. no one is so stuck in a rut that they can't change. if they say they are. they are WRONG. they are just STUBBORN.
be the person you want to be today and an even better person tomorrow
