Woke up to a reminder that my “actual college life” is slowly but surely coming to an end. Picked up my cap & gown with all the little shenanigans. All I can say is, WOW, I’m going to be wearing that with my roomie at our graduation ceremony.
Got me thinking…[rare moment]…i went through it all and i did it…
there are so many things that I’ve struggled through, pushed through, and succeeded in that it brings back the memories that helped me to get to where i am today. although the things in my life seem handed to me most of the time, i have definitely put my sweat and tears into getting what i want in my life. i don’t share my personal life or what i really think about things cause sometimes its just not worth the feelings or emotions that may come with it. and i want to live my life to its fullest potential…
just know that i live an independent lifestyle [thanks to my amazing parents] cause to survive in the world we live in, we need to be able to stand up for ourselves, if you can’t then the world will consume you and all that you could offer [Romans 12:2]. through the last 8 years of my life, i finally know what my parents were doing, they were giving me the tools to become a strong, independent, caring, generous, loving lady that i thought i could never be. but looking at all the events in my life, the puzzle pieces are finally making an image.
reflecting on life is something everyone should do. there may be some bad times, but there are always good times that come with it. the memories that are made with family and friends are forever with you. but don’t think too much about memories from the past cause you’ll miss out on what is happening now.
my independent lifestyle is enjoying every minute, every second that i have here with the people i love and i hope that YOU are living your own independent lifestyle [Proverbs 16:3]
