You Are Not Alone

You look around and you notice you are not where you had thought you would have been let alone the person you have become. Things that use to make sense no longer do and those who once understood you now look at you like your going to break or blow up any minute. They see you as this fragile being and the irony is that you have never felt stronger. Feeling like for once in your life you know exactly who your are, although you struggle with what you want and what your purpose is you know that whatever it may be is greater than this life. It took a lot of life lessons to get to be the person you are today, a lot of pain, lost, and failure. You may not be where you want to be but at least you are not where you used to be, broken and afraid. There will be times when you will want to give up because that seems so much easier, but I promise in those times if you just keep pushing forward you will not regret it.

I too have been exactly where you are and at times, I still feel like I am just feeling my way through life. I want to believe that’s part of the journey and sometimes I lose sight of that. Living in a time where everything and everyone is constantly evolving and growing I find it hard to step back from the motion of life and take a break to bring the focus back to me and what is going on inside. For so long I avoided spending time with myself because I did not want to be reminded of just how broken and afraid, I really was. It was not until I became tired of running that I sat with myself and began to really dig deep and process what exactly was I running from. When I got to the root of it all I realize that I was self-sabotaging. I was afraid of everything good life had to offer because I thought I was not deserving. It took for me to pinpoint exactly what it was I needed to change and that was my broken thinking. Once I was able to identify my thinking errors, I was able to see life through a new set of lenses and it came with this confidence that I carry with my every day. It will take time and effort however if you are willing to put in the work the results will be astounding.
