I am normally someone who loves changes, I think there is something really exciting about a new beginning. However, there are times when change has a way of causing doubt, pain, and trials. Here I am, a sixteen year old girl, finishing up her sophomore year in high school, looking back over all the changes. The people who seemed to be the ones that were always going to be there, failed to. The friends I love dearly, I have seen fall to their knees, but the beauty in it was seeing them get back up. The past few weeks I have been thinking a lot about the future, and how much I have learned in the past. I was having a conversation with my boyfriend last night that really got me thinking. We began to talk about wishing that we had a time machine and if we could only go back and change things or how we could keep the moments perfect. Then we both realized, how the moments of our past do define the people we become, and at the end of the day all the bluster and B.S only make us the person we were meant to be. Its funny, He mentioned to me that he wished the school he attends was never created, and I simply replied "but you wouldn't have met me" the look on his face was priceless, and he was amazed at how the past lead him to me. It was clear to me then that if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up the rain. As much as I love change, and as much as I wish I could change things, I realize that there are some things in life we just shouldn't change. Maybe the beauty in the alter, is all about letting the changes just happen and learning to embrace it as it comes.
to be a story about change. It has been said before to "be the change you wish to see in the world" so what are we all waiting for? I would like the think I am not the only person who does not love her life to be turned upside down, in saying this it is clear that change is not always welcomed. Change comes in all shapes and sizes, whether or not we like it, it is simply inevitable, so what if we actually open the door to change? Seems to me that you get out what you put in. I don't know about you, but I know that I want this world to be extraordinary, therefore I am willing to make changes. You see I am one of those trendy teenagers with my Toms and Organic drinks, which some might say is "cliche and ordinary" but I think its about what YOU can do for yourself, and YOUR world. If you like the concept of a pair of shoes, well then buy them, if you believe it helps well then hey your being the change. If you want to drink something that is better for you, then drink it. I am so very tired of people doing things for reasons that should not even have been in the beginning. There is so much good into days world, but so many of us make things much bigger then they should be, take it from an overthinker herself. At the end of the day, I just want my life to make an impact, and I would be willing to say that you want your life to leave a mark somewhere as well. I hope and pray that this blog might just change someones life or at least change someones day. There are many steps we can take to make a better us, maybe even our lives will become a beautiful alter.
