Letting go things that no longer serve me.....
Firstly I wanna say “wow, so this is what it’s like to do something I wanted to do for a while”; see because for so long I put off doing something like this because I never thought of myself as someone confident enough to push myself to do this.... I know it sounds stupid but I’m definitely glad I’ve started now.
Ya know I’m just a young adult leaning and trying to understand myself, coming into my own. apart of all this is being able to navigate through the world and learning what exactly is well....Me, What makes ashleigh Pierre... Ashleigh Pierre. This can be such a hard process especially if you’re (like most) thrusted into the college world right after high school which has its cons definitely. What’s even worse is that time period you have right after college where you’re trying to find your sense of stability whiles trying to understand yourself... honestly based on how long I’ve been on earth I realize that this time in your life can either make you or break you because you’re going to go through some things but if you take those experiences as lessons it’s going to definitely help build your character for the long run.
One major part of this process is having to let...things...go. Whether it be that relationship that’s holding you back, or that heartbreak you can’t get over or even fake friends, the only way you can grow and evolve from those situations is to forgive the situation and forgive yourself from the situation and move on. It’s a hard life lesson to learn but it’s definitely a necessary one because now you understand how to handle such situations if they arise once more in the future and you now know how you want to be treated for future situations. This was also an eye opener for me realizing whatever you tolerate and allow for others is how they will treat you no matter what. You have to stand firm in what you believe and set firm boundaries and make sure to stand up when those boundaries are crossed and if that results in cutting off a few people who never had your best interest at heart anyway then so be it! I’ve learned this the hard way having to give up two “good friends” who turned out to be not so much the friends I thought I had, which made me realize.... it’s fine, I forgave the situation to set myself free.
So I hoped you guys learned a bit from my first entry love y’all and remember sometimes you just have to let things or people go to fully grow into the person you need to be! and in the words of SZA “Good luck on them 20 somethings”
