I've spend most of my weekend relaxing, just doing me.
All I really did was listen to music and I finally found a playlist that touches me in a way I can't describe. It makes me smile and I vibe to it like never before. It's not just that playlist. It's me. I have peace in my head. I finally erased every sign of my ex out of my house and my house is finally becoming my home again. It took a while but I feel great! My house is exactly that... Mine. I'm loving life again, I have my best friends near me who make me love life even more and that and the perfect playlist made my weekend the best in a while. That inner peace didn't just happen. It was something I was striving for and I didn't even notice I reached that level of happiness until I thought about my day. I went to bed with a smile and I woke up with a smile. Being happy isn't something that comes from the outside. It doesn't come with good friends. It doesn't come after a night out. It doesn't come after a good movie or anything. I starts within. Change the way you think. Get rid of the negativity. Smile more. Live larger, stop telling yourself that certain things are impossible. Make your day the best day you can possibly have. Having a positive look on life helps. Focusing on the good instead of the bad, helps! Make yourself happy. This is coming from someone who battled depression and anxiety for years, if not all of my life. I'm turning 24 and I know I've never felt this great in my entire life. I'm having fun without even doing much. Me and my best friend call every day. We talk about everything and nothing. She contributes to me being happy. Surround yourself with people who help you see the good in life. Get close to those who help you laugh after a long day. Find those that change your anger into happiness. Smile more. Force yourself to smile. Even if it's to a stranger as you walk by. The more you smile, the better you will feel. If you're battling depression right now, this might seem impossible. But know that it is possible. Know that you are not the depression you're dealing with. You are a vibrant person, you just haven't found your inner light. Once you do, you can look for a match and light that fire that makes you happy and makes you feel great. Surround yourself with people who accept you for the person you truly are instead of the person you're pretending to be to fit it or to be accepted. I'm telling you to surround yourself with good friends but realize that they are not in control of who you are and what you feel. Realize that you and only you can change you and the way you think. It starts within you. Make it your one and only goal to feel better. Make everyday even better than the day before. I promise you that eventually you will feel good about yourself and about your life. My life isn't perfect, not at all. but I know that I am in control and when I don't like the people I'm surrounded with, I leave and find people who I do feel comfortable around. There are not many people who have seen me. I've always told myself to hold back. To not show everything of me. I'm learning to show people who I am, regardless of their reaction. Why? Their reaction doesn't matter anymore! Who I am today, is exactly who I need to be. Who you are today, is exactly who you need to be, for now. Work on being a little better tomorrow. It's a never ending battle but it's the only one that's worth it! Trust me when I say this. It's worth it. Go and find your light!
