I know this is the time when we're all thinking about the past year..
the goals we've accomplished, the fears we've faced, the friends we've lost and gained...
this is the day of reflection.
We think about changes we want to make and the smarter choices that we already have in mind,
Basically, we are thinking. We are thinking a lot about the past and the future..
I say we celebrate.
The fact that we've all made it another year in this crazy world is something worth celebrating.
Let's celebrate everything it took to get us here.
Let's take one day to not feel sad about our mistakes, but to celebrate them.
We wouldn't be where we are in the road without making wrong turns.
Let's just be proud of where we are right now,
deal with the rest later.
At midnight,
let's kiss it all goodbye.
For a while i've had this image of this girl in my head, she's a version of myself.
She's the person I want to be in ten years, the person I want to be more like every day..
She's the person I know I have the potential of being. The best version of myself.
In my head the girl I see is older, more mature, she's got it together...
She's balanced and has her priorities straight,
healthy and knows what she wants.
I picture her as independent and motivated, always moving forward.
I picture her being happy doing the things that she loves.
I picture her living to making a difference in people's lives.
I picture her just loving others like she's always been taught.
I sometimes picture her in a little city, but sometimes I see her on the beach..
One thing that stays the same is the smile on her face.
A lot of sometimes when I feel stuck,
I just close my eyes and picture this girl.
I think to myself that this is the person God wants me to be.
Then, I move forward.
I find something else to do to make me a little closer to being like her.
It's my slice of hope and my optimism for the future.
I may not be her yet, but I know the person I'm going to be.
I can see her.
One day at a time.
I think some times people hold on to things because they are afraid a good thing won't happen twice.
Guilty.
Even when you think it's not,
time is always on your side.
<3
So, here I go.
