Today after a very long stressful day I decided I needed to get my life back on track. Although I still have a few mixed emotions, I can genuinely say that I have finally let go of all the bad things that have happened to me in this life. I’m not saying that I hope to forget all these tragic happenings – no – I just want to be able to accept the fact that they’ve happened and learn from each situation but not make it change or determine who I am. All my flaws, all the mishaps in my life have created who I am now, but for the past few months I have been so confused and completely forgot who I truly was. So many people molded me into something else without me even knowing it. I’m finally at peace with what has happened in my life and I fully acknowledge that things won’t stay like this forever. A friend once told me something when I was going through a rough time and it is the most truthful story I have ever heard.
“There was an old man who was about to pass away and he knew that he wasn’t gonna be there for his daughter as she got older and went through life, so he left her something in a wooden box for her to open if a tragic thing happened. One day when his daughter was going through a tragic event she opened the box and inside was a piece of paper that said “It too will pass.” Her father had left her this note with his words of advice for her. That no matter what situation you’re put in everything will eventually pass. =)
Anyways I’m looking forward to this new schoolyear and I’m willing to face whatever situations are awaiting for me. I feel like I can finally breathe and move on.
