Be Who You Are...

Taking a look back at old pictures and memories I've noticed how much we've all changed in the past few years. It's a scary concept when you really think about it. We all used to talk about never wanting to grow up and wanting to be kids forever. Things change and it's those changes in our lives that help us shape who we are as adults. Sometimes you can't help but wish you were that kid once again, living life without a care, goofing around and being yourself, and it makes me wonder: What is going to happen to us in the future? Where will our choices take us in life? Who will be there in the end for us?

As we take charge of our lives we grow, and the adults we grow into are undetermined. Take charge of your own destiny, make yourself into the best person you can possibly be. Don't let other people's judgments and opinions take a place in determining who you are as a whole. Yes we will make mistakes, yes we will fall, but in the end we will always pick ourselves back up and keep moving forward.

“Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things… and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.” - Walt Disney

As for myself, I'm going to keep moving forward and not let my past mistakes ruin the bright future I have ahead of me. Yes I've screwed up one too many times but that will not hinder my efforts. I am whoever I wish to be, whether that be what the world wants or not. I will always be myself no matter what. I am who I chose to be! Pin It
