"She courageously and unapologetically walked away from everyone and everything that meant her no good"

This world is a place for dreamers and the hopeful, there are places to explore and people to meet. My soul longs for the freedom to do as I please and for so long I caged myself inside of a box. The box was meant to bound me to the idea that I was content with the life I was living, and with the relationship that I was in. All along I knew the truth was that I wanted to be let loose and I wanted to find myself. For some people finding themselves means exploring a hobby that they have always felt drawn too, but for me it meant cutting the negativity out of my life. I will not apologize for seeing the world as my canvas and wanting to leave my mark on it.

Being proactive in the development in your happiness means cutting out the voices of those who once held you back, and broke you down..

In order to find who I was, I needed to stop depending on the opinion and approval of others, and depend on myself. I started to ignore the thoughts of those who didn't want to see me prosper and become happy with myself.

My happiness stems from the desire to be fully devoted to success and my wellbeing. The saying that the world is a cruel place will no longer be a crutch for me but instead a motivation. I will be motivated to work harder to thrive in a place that is full of disappointment and heartbreak.

I've never been one to listen to the cliché quotes but one has always stuck out to me and it's "Don't waste your time looking into the rearview, you might miss something amazing ahead of you."

Great things are ahead and if I'm busy dwelling on the past I can not become excited for what's to come. I will not apologize for finally becoming the person I've always wanted to be.

Life is what you make of it, so grab hold of yourself and do amazing things.
