When times are tough, we often look outside of ourselves for reassurance or reinforcements.
Now when though this maybe not be a bad thing especially when you have a great support system.. But often it ultimately comes back to the self. It comes back to you and your choices. Choices on how you decide to react to situations.
So often I am lost within myself trying to learn from my own mistakes within my journey. And so often without thought I fall back into the loop or reacting first and assessing the situation after.
I needed to work on me. I needed to respect myself, to let others respect me. As it's so hard to change oneself but even harder to change others.
I am still stumbling through and as I go through my ups and downs there is one thing I have learnt.
That is to never give up on oneself.
I hope that upon my many hours of reflection and introspection and the many more to come over the years/ or time that I do have, that I become more selfless and that I accept that cards that are giving to me, and make peace with the way I chose to play my hand.
I do know that many people go through the same feelings so often but sometimes it's kept inside making them feel alone in their struggles.. my message to you is that you are not as alone as you may think.
