Hello Readers,
Seeing as
tomorrow is my 26th birthday I feel that I should have some sort
of words of wisdom or a list of 26 things to do with blah blah blah kind
of post.
But instead, let’s talk
about adulting! It’s only as you get older you realise that everyone is making
it up as they go along, no one really knows what to do and
everyone is in some form of a mess. Adulting is hard; there is
so much pressure that we put on ourselves or that we feel from others, it took
me way too long to realise that I really needed to stop comparing myself
to others for my own sanity. I am on my own path and if I followed
everyone else, I wouldn’t be blogging - so who’s really winning here!
ME the person surrounded by book and wonderful and welcoming blogging community.
I do have one or two words of
wisdom though.
First off, no matter what you
do with your life, people will find something negative to say. Let’s ignore the
negativity and toxicity those people have and make yourself burn
brighter than they thought. If we're honest, if we listened to every piece
of negative feedback, we would all be sat in a dark room counting cracks in the
tiles. Who really wants to be doing that?
The second is you are allowed
to cut toxic people out of your life without feeling guilty. You cannot change
people and if that person is having a negative effect on your life and
mentality, you have to limit your interactions with that person for your
own sanity and self-care. I’ve realised that I can’t control the situation
(sorry anxiety but it’s true) or change people into something they’re not and it’s
counterproductive and I’m the only one suffering. People are who they
are and are set in their ways for their own reasons.
Also stealing words
from Zombieland “celebrate the little things” no matter how obscure
and insignificant they seem to others, they are your victories!
