It's weird, but it's a revelation that anything that has held me down or back in my life so far is just a thing that's happened. The story that I carry forward about it is what matters the most, I know. But, none of that sh*t affects me any longer! The things that have hurt me have been my pivotal points, where yes, I've made mistakes, but I've learned a lot on who I want to become (as opposed to how/who the people who have hurt me are) and how I want to live in this world. I get to make the choices (in so far as life allows) to go do and be the person I want to be. My situation may be of living in a deprived area, but I still have my intelligence, my creativity, my care of people and my strong dislike of society's systems that I can do something with all of that put together. Practice is key, patience is a must. But I know that I am going somewhere amazing.
It's been a journey. But through the hurt and the pain, I wouldn't want it any other way. I have learned, oh how I have learned.
