Growing up has its struggles as we all know. From stressing out over exams - thinking you'll fail at life to breaking up with your boyfriend or girlfriend. All petty things looking at it from a perspective of an adult (not that I'm an adult) but at this moment in our lives the thing that is happening can potentiality be the worse thing possible and that is simply because we haven't been through anything worse!
Looking back on the last 3 years (when my life really began to lift off with my friends ect), I cringe. How dramatic I was over the little things and to be honest I think that is completely natural, even things I have done in the last few weeks I cringe about. But I soon realize, I shouldn't cringe and think "omg I'm such an embarrassment to myself, why did I do that?" but instead I try and think of a positive. Although Cliche has it sounds, I'm glad I made these mistakes because I've learned from them. Everything I do is shaping me into the person I am, and although I'm unhappy with some of the actions I do, I realize that everyone makes mistakes, no ones perfect and its not like I'm the only one who's ever made a mistake.
Telling people that its okay to make mistakes, and it's okay to do this ect. But when people used to tell me things like that I used to shrug it off, "yeah whatever" but now I realize that they were right. And the message I want to get through to you all in this rambling blog post is that making mistakes is fine, but telling you this won't make you feel better - but there will be a time when you realize this yourself. I honestly think this is the best way - you have to accept yourself before you let others accept you. And that's what I am slowly realizing.
Apologies for this rambling blog post - and it may not make any sense but I've decided to be more lenient and relaxed with myself, otherwise I won't enjoy doing this - and the most important thing for me is to be happy! and writing this jumbled blog post certainty does
