What are you afraid of?

Some spend most of their life being afraid. I used to think I was afraid to be alone because it somehow meant lonely. Change can be scary but as I've discovered one of the most fun and interesting parts of life. Stepping out of my comfort zone and into the unknown realms of possibility can be scary but so completely necessary.

Being comfortable on my own has been one of my greatest struggles but I have somehow come to embrace it. It is insane how much growth can happen if you just will and allow yourself. How many times have I been afraid to do something and just didn't do it because ... what? Because of what people might think? FUCK THAT!

Be crazy. Be ridiculous. Be you! I hate to say it but it's true, you only live once. I'll be corny & admit that I love life! Because I do.

Life is too short to give a fuck about things for too long, especially if it gets in the way of your own happiness.

Never apologize for who you are.

Make changes for yourself but never change yourself for somebody else.

We cannot change anybody.


We're all just trying to live our life the best way we can, no need to get judgmental or analytical. The world is ours, but most importantly, yours. What are you going to do with your world?


As long as you always see the glass as half full....

Deep thinker.

Lately I've been trying very hard to control my thoughts. It is super strange because I feel like my mind just goes off in weird places at times. I'm sure we can all relate in some way. The mind is really such a powerful thing--besides certain biological matters-- I do trust and believe that all of us make a choice to feel the way that we do.

So if this is the case, I want to be happy and positive as much as possible. I want to feel fearless and resilient. Wait, wait... I will be happy, positive, fearless and resilient. When we were younger, they told us.. "You can be anything you want to be." Sadly, as I grew older, all I found myself upon was boundaries and reasons why I couldn't.

For some reason, or for many reasons... I feel life changing once again. I used to be afraid and unwilling to accept change. I used to hate change. However as I've experienced more, I have begun to see change in a different light. As inevitable as it is, it can be a beautiful and necessary element of growth. How does one grow without change?

It's sad to let go of the past sometimes because people who you once knew so well become strangers of the past. C'est la vie. People come and go into our lives for a reason and right now I feel so blessed.

I'm happy to be surrounded by (mostly) positive people and energy. Who really has time to waste on negativity? I know it would be a lie to say that my life is completely void of negativity but I would like to view my glass as half full than half empty....

Positive thoughts... positive vibes... positive life! I really believe that's true because I've lived it. I live it. I want it and I'll get it.

'Cause she don't give a fuck.

Lately I've been letting go a lot of my inhibitions. Some might see it as a bad thing, but I see it more of a HUGE sigh of relief. I feel like for a long time I've been closed off from the world and certain possibilities. Things were almost black and white, but I was floating in the grey.... at this time in my life, I am starting to accept the realm of endless opportunities and just enjoy being in the moment. It's sad to think about the feeling of complacency where things just start to feel so normal that it doesn't even seem like if you're growing or you're not. You're just there-- stagnant. Boring as fuck, probably in denial. I guess that's the point though. You only realize it once you've made it out.

It feels great to feel alive again and so incredibly empowered. You start to wonder where it all really comes from. Does it come from me? You? Everything around us....? I think all of the above.

Surround yourself with positive people and be positive. Stop caring so much about what everybody else thinks. Everyone thinks... it all boils down to what they choose to believe.

But really... sometimes...



Who really gives a fuck.
