Beware of sentimentality.
For as long as I remember I never had a social support system, I could only rely on myself. So many battles faced and fought alone.
Thanks to a wonderful person I learned to change that and open up to people. A core part of me still holds onto myself though, this is a tribute to that part of me that got stronger over time.To all those past struggles and scars. I've become resilient and I have been able to build myself a happy life thanks to it. Looking back now, I can give all those struggles a reason. They are who I am now. I can accept that and give a nod to my past self for enduring all this. And I can look ahead, to all those struggles that lie ahead.
I'm a bit hesistant to post this but I feel many of you went through similar hardships.I encourage you to look back, see how far you have come and acknowledge those struggles. Acknowledge how much they hurt, how much pain they caused and the effort and tears it cost to overcome them. Accept who you are and what has happened in the past. For me it is the key to strive towards goals and to fight for a happy life. I am now at a point where I can smile at problems thrown at me, because I learned how to turn that into a strenght and become stronger. Because I am now living a life that I got to chose.
I wish upon all of you the same strenght to struggle and strive towards a better life.
