I’ve been patient in life for so long.
I’ve taken everything bad that anyone ever said to me and I stored it deep inside.
I’ve waited and waited because I thought things would change, that people would change, that destiny would go easy on me and pay me back by letting good things happen.
All of that is about to change.
I’ve realized something.
I’ve realized that waiting for things to happen, waiting for things to change, is a lost cause.
Nothing will ever be different if I don’t take my destiny into my own hands.
This time, I’m slowly starting to realize that.
I’m slowly learning to let go of everything that bothers me and people who don’t value me.
First, people. I’m letting go of all of you who never did anything good for me; if anything, you always made me feel bad.
I’m saying goodbye to the heartbreakers.
You, who shattered my heart into thousands of pieces.
You, who made me pick up those pieces one by one, pieces of a broken mirror I used to enjoy looking at.
Now, I’m collecting those shattered chunks and putting that mirror back together.
Only, I’m not sure if I’m going to like what I see in the end.
I’m letting go of the traitors and backstabbers who were never there for me when I needed them.
My loyalty never meant anything to you.
The fact that I forgot about my own problems to take care of yours meant I only got an empty thank you from you.
But when things went downhill for me and I needed you to have my back, you pretended you couldn’t hear me.
You turned on me.
Here’s a special goodbye to a crappy life.
I’m letting go of all the life situations that made me think I was not good enough or that I was never going to be.
I’m saying goodbye to a life full of disappointment and seemingly unbearable obstacles.
Nothing is impossible. Nothing is undoable. It’s you who is your own obstacle in everything you do.
When you think you can’t, you will never be able to.
I’m letting go of those toxic thoughts that are only bringing me down and limiting my abilities.
I finally realized that I can do whatever I want.
I have to try hard and I have to be persistent, to never give up. Impossible?
It will be impossible to slow me down.
I’m letting go of the known.
I’m walking out of my comfort zone.
Great things don’t happen in comfort zones.
You won’t discover what you’re capable of if you just keep surrounding yourself with the things you know, with something that sure and bulletproof.
You have to risk a bit and find your way out of an unknown or uncomfortable situation.
That is when you build yourself and become better and stronger.
I’m learning to let go of a limiting life.
I’m learning to embrace the excitement of what this new life is bringing me.
So, here I am, ready to embrace everything that awaits me.
Here I am, happy to welcome my new life and all the things that come along with it.
I’m ready to finally love myself enough to recognize what great potential I have rather than being a hopeless failure like others made me think.
I’m ready to give myself credit for all the good things I’ve done and am about to do.
I’m ready to tackle my dreams because I finally have the courage to.
And I’m only brave enough because I decided to leave behind everything that is not good for me.
I’m slowly learning to become who I was supposed to be all along—a fighter, a dreamer and a real woman.
And to do that takes courage. It takes time to realize what is bad for you.
