RAMBLINGS VOL 18 | FINDING MYSELF
Ive been having these little moments doing everyday things when I mentally stop and
realize how much my life has changed. How I have crawled up a very heigh mountain to
finally find myself. I realize this is a never ending road but I feel like I, more often then not,
can feel confident in my own skin.
I was flipping through old pictures from almost 10 years back and laughing hysterically at
the outfits I was wearing. At first I laughed because I was a hot mess of colors and layers
that maybe one day Ill share here :) but a moment later I realized that the image portrayed
so much more then what I originally felt.
That image held the past, the person I dont know anymore, someone trying to find herself
in this world. I didn't look at it and have sad feelings because that person was brave, she allowed
herself to fail and keep going, to take on challenges bigger than what she realized. But looking back
I see that I have found myself, that there is a sort of rhythm to life that I know who I am. I can be
unafraid to continue to take chances, to fail and press forward. To risk it all and still feel like myself
through the good and the bad.
I hope that I can look back 10 years from now and still feel proud of the person I am today.
To smile at the choices I am making today with the knowledge and wisdom of another 10+ years.
