growing up and maturing is realising that people including yourself make mistakes. all of us learn from it. we grow and be better, for ourselves. not for anyone else’s sake. maturing is knowing you’ve done something wrong, accepting it and continue to work to become a better version of yourself.

It’s been years since I have struggled this hard to hang on. I don’t want to go. I know I can make it.

And that’s the thing I just have to know.

It’ll hurt. It’ll feel like every day is the last.

But you somehow survive another day.

This earth is too beautiful. This experience too rare.

So I’ll breathe. Even though my brain tells me I can’t.

trying your best does not mean putting an unbearable amount of strain on yourself.

I recently had to let go.

Of people that hold places I no longer fit into.

I always thought it was going to hurt more.

And that’s why I held on.

But it seems I had been grieving in pieces for years.

Now I just get to be me.

And that feels so good.

You.

One of the toughest steps to happiness is to really look at yourself as a person. The really good parts of you, the really ugly parts, and everything in between. That’s the first step, but once you can really evaluate and find the things you want to change to better yourself, the better you can build relationships with the world and the beautiful people around you. It is very difficult, probably worse than your first love heartbreak, but the most important relationship you have is the one with yourself. You must learn to become the best version of yourself you can be. It is only then that you can truly be healthy. And it is then that you can love yourself and truly show how much you love those who mean the most to you. This last week, I took that first major step. And it feels great already ❤️
