Desperate for changing, starving for truth. I’m closer to where I started, I’m chasing after you
It’s been a couple of days I think, since my last post, that is. I’ve been finding solace in friends, in my family, in God and in my music. I am not going to lie and say that I am better, but I am better than I was a year ago. To be honest, I thought I wasn’t going to survive all of it. All of the pain, the heartache, the mistakes… I lived torturing myself.
I have a guy friend… I’d like to think that he is my best guy friend. Since he pretty much knows all I have been through and stuff. I talk to him a lot and he gives me great advice. The other night we were talking and he straight up told me that yea we all make mistakes but if God has already forgiven us and loves us, he sees our heart, why can’t I just forgive myself too? Instead of torturing myself and living in hate to a certain extent with myself.
That got me analyzing, and of course emotional. It’s true. I need to accept and forgive my own self. In order to move forward with my life, with my goals, with my dreams… I need to love myself. Stop hating everything I am not and everything I don’t have. I need to see that I have a great life, I have great new friends, and I have my family with me. I got ambitions, I got plans, I got goals. I want to accomplish them. I want to feel proud of myself for once in my life. Be me, be who I always wanted to be.
It takes time, everything always does. But I need to start having a little more faith. I need to trust in what I believe and let that guide me in the right path for me. I need to stop going against what’s right and just doing it. Obviously its not easy, I know I’m going to have those days where I just want to break down and give it all up…stop! Stop it… look around , I’ll say to myself, look at how far you have come in this crazy thing called life. Look at who you have become. Shh, it’s okay honey to feel so lost and incomplete, but you are getting closer to your own happiness.
I think I still held on to that fear. Fear and hate. My worst enemies, but little by little I am realizing and discovering. I am letting go of all of those things that kept holding me back. For now, this year will be for ending past relationships and beginning an exciting study for me. This will be the time I give myself to just be on my own and love it. Love myself. Hopefully if things go well next year, I want to be open to someone… I want to let someone into my heart. Of course I am not expecting things to go exactly that way, but its okay to wish and dream. You never know when they might just come true.
I’m falling even more in love with you, Letting go of all I’ve held on to
I’m standing here until you make me move, I’m hanging by a moment here with you
I’m living for the only thing I know, I’m running and not quite sure where to go
And I don’t know what I’m diving into, Just hanging by a moment here with you
