Digital storyteller, Photographic narrator, Hogwarts alum. In real life, I write things. I speak fluent sarcasm. I'm unintentionally funny. My favorite thing is food. Guac is life. I'm a fountain of the most random information. I'm pretty, only because it's weird to call oneself beautiful. I'm weird in all the good ways. I live in the greatest city on Earth. I was Sasha before Beyonce was schizophrenic. My life is stranger than fiction. But please, don't take my word for it. My pen is mightier than my sword. Instagram

When I look at my life, where I've been and where I am now, I'm proud of myself. I'm proud of my accomplishments and I'm proud of the fact that through the good times and bad, I've only become stronger and wiser. All of my experiences have taught me something, from the amazing ones to the downright shitty ones. And I still have a long way to go. I'm not where I need to be but I'm far from where I was. I just feel like often, people forget that progress is a good thing. At some point in your life, you get tempted to revisit a time in your life because it's familiar. New experiences are unfamiliar and a lot of times, people see the unfamiliar as scary. So we go back. Whether it's to an ex that you know you have no business with or to a job that's going nowhere, we are always tempted to go back because familiar is comfortable. The unknown is frightening but I've learned that fear isn't real. Progress is real. Moving forward is real. Everything happens for a reason and for a person to go back to something that ended for a reason is just foolish. Embrace new beginnings. It's the most amazing thing you can do in life. I don't look back on my life with regret but with a strong sense of self. I've experienced things in the past, I've learned from those experiences, I've moved on and I'm happy. I don't have time to keep looking back because I'm too busy looking ahead and moving forward. I have no regrets about the people that have come into my life, the ones that are no longer here and the opportunities that I've had, both in my personal and professional life. And I refuse to feel regret about any of those things (or anything else for that matter) just to make someone else feel good about themselves. I'm happy with my life, I'm proud of the woman that I'm becoming and I'm excited for all of the new beginnings with the ones that I love. So, sorry but I'm not sorry.Labels: babble and rant, in real life, personals |
