Growth

Life changes and so do you

Growth

As we live our life it all revolves around one thing, growth. Growth comes in many different ways and may not even be seen until you change.

Growing up I have always felt like an outcast in many things and I still do sometimes. I always wondered why I couldn't be like the girl that was really pretty or be the person that everyone loved. But time and learning helped me realize who I am.

I was raised in a pretty small town surrounded by the same people until I left for college. Sure as I lived there and grew older I felt as if I was growing up and becoming a better version of myself. It wasn't until I was placed on my own I saw the potential of who I can be.

Like I said growth comes in many places and you can grow in absolutely anything. I want to grow in my faith, in my love for myself, in my life passions and my traits, in my wisdom and kindness for others. There is always a way to make the world and yourself a better place.

As I look to grow I can see all of my opinions and beliefs forming instead of conforming to what I have always known. Without moving forward there is no way there can be successful futures. The world changes every day and I have decided I want to be the one person I can count on and can change with the times.

Living your life in your bubble can make you happy but I want to use my growth and change as a person to experience all the world has to offer. We would never see flowers if they didn't grow from seeds. There is ways that you can plant your own seed and see how you will bloom with all the world will have to offer.

"We cannot become what we want by remaining who we are." -Rachel Adams

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
