Welcome Home

I am figuring me out. Self awareness is becoming my best friend. I am realizing daily that as much as I try to suppress the force that gathers the makings of me, the more they surface. The more I focus on self-awareness, I want to give more and be more for others. I have found myself, in previous phases, of pretending that I am one of those hard girls who chooses to not left people in. And to be honest, that's simply not who I am. I was mistaking this for strength, when in reality, my strength comes from my love. My love makes me human; it makes me whole. I wouldn't tell a beautiful singer not to sing, so why should I tell the lover in me not to love? We've often been taught that focusing on ourselves will be our downfall. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Focusing on ourselves allows us to tailor our personal strengths so that we can be the best complete beings who truly live out a purpose. Be the person who opens the door and allows emotions in. Allow those internal struggles to play out. Bask in those moments of self-defeat. By doing so, you produce infinite amounts of strength that far outweighs the benefit of any low hanging fruit!
