there’s something about coming full circle, i tell you what. the end of my high school career is drawing nearer, and i’ve just been thinking about a lot. i’m glad i took it upon myself to create this blog and go on this journey. i’ve met so many great new people and developed excellent relationships with the more familiar ones in my life. i think the point of this all was to determine the balance one must strike in order to do good. you have to take care of yourself but also give the best advice you can, and just know that people will only take it when they’re ready, and it’s not up to you to help someone change for the better.
it’s been awhile since i’ve posted on this blog.
not too many things of note have been happening lately, but i guess there’s one thing i’m proud of.
things have only gotten better.
this isn’t something new that i’ve done, but it’s something for sure:
i’ve come to the conclusion that i have to put some things i really want on the back burner for now and that i need to pay more attention to certain things that are right here, right now, and surprise, surprise, they’re things i actually really want.
i knew this whole process would help me and help me stay content, i just didn’t think it’d happen so soon.
things have improved since i last posted.
difficulties encountered.
i’m going to be honest, i’m a few days into this so-called project of mine and i’m already suffering. putting others first and helping them and taking on some of their baggage sucks. but i have to do it, you know? i may be dying over here, but i already know i’m going to make a difference. this is something i guess i thought of, but not enough, i suppose. i’ll have to learn how to strike a certain balance, to be able to take care of myself and everyone else at the same time.
today: my first stab at progress.
okay so this isn’t really anything that helped another person, necessarily, but i sure know it helped me: i bit my tongue before letting out some stupid, bitchy gossip. go me!
as you folks may know, amelie is one of my favorite movies and the whole doing good things for others part of it has always piqued my interest. owing to this summer and a few other things, i’ve suddenly been motivated to make this year about just helping other people. not necessarily taking on their problems, mind you, but helping them get over whatever obstacles i can. i just want to make this a year of purpose and rid myself of any self-serving behaviors. so that’s what this blog is gonna be about! expect some activity on here in a few days, and i’m sure things will take off from there!
