A positive change I have made to my life…. well really it’s still in the process of changing.
I am a dweller. When social problems or personal issues arise, I don’t shut down, but I dwell.
My mind won’t let things go. Not in an unforgiving way towards others, because I love the humans I surround myself with, but I’m unforgiving with myself.
A year ago, I ended an abusive relationship. I couldn’t get away though. Despite everything I tried, my ex harassed me to no end.
After a year, an amazing hiatus in Europe, and some personal time to reflect, I can say I’m on the path to forgiving myself. Why? Well, because it’s not my fault. I’m beginning to realize that the small things I used to dwell on no longer hold so much gravity in my being. With a growing sense of self-assurance, my insecurities diminish. I’ve always sought out freedom, and when I can finally free my mind and heart from the weight of all the things I dwell on, then I will truly be liberated. Don’t look back, push forward, love yourself, love the world.
