Progress

We can so easily get caught up in things. Work, friendships, news, events, ANYTHING! It can be hard to find time to sit and relax, to sit and reflect. These things are important and essential to a healthy life. We can easily get off track, and forget to do this. Take time for yourself! I had a couple of conversations today about my future. I'm planning to live by myself starting in May. Legit, by myself. Not going away to college and living in a dorm with a roommate, but totally on my own in an apartment. I'm scared as fuck in some senses. But this is exciting! This is going to give me a chance to grow in ways that I have never been able to. This is going to hopefully force me to spend a lot of time facing myself and who I am. I'm putting myself in a situation with a lot of potential. If I reach that potential or not... well, that's up to me.

I've done push ups the past two mornings. I will hit 51 by Friday. Mark my words, because it's about the things that you do for yourself. Those are the ones that define who you are more than anything else. I think I'm starting to believe that sentence I just wrote... I hope that's a good thing. That it means moving forward and not backwards.
