... because we fall too easily into the trap of being our own worst enemy."
Lately, this quote seems to fit my life to a T. Missed opportunities, sudden goodbyes and rash decisions have gotten the best of me for a number of years. I am only now just realizing how much these things are affecting my happiness. You live and you learn, I guess.
From this day forward, I hope that I will let myself realize the potential of being happy. Whether that is professionally or personally, depends on the situation. I am tired of settling.
Lately every song on the radio has left me reminiscent of past days - days when it was hard to find a smile off my face. I am not unhappy at the present moment - but I am not as happy as I should be. I feel like I have let things, feelings, people slip by me. Why do I do this to myself?
Why does it take me so long to realize what I truly want - until its too late? It annoys me that I have become my own worst enemy. I have let certain situations define me. And that is just not me. I want to throw the past away and live in the present. I want to live for the future. Now it is a matter of figuring out how to do that...
Lately my thoughts are jumbled and my brain is in a fog. Its my own fault, I know. I have said goodbye to so many opportunities ... If I cannot bring the past to me, I need to work on not letting things pass me by in the future. But for now... I need to figure out the present.
My goal from this day forward is to be true to myself, no matter how scary that may be... I need to face my fears because life is too short to let things pass you by.... to say goodbye to great people. I just hope that my past actions will lead me to a better future.
