Sto lentamente imparando a lasciare andare le cose che non mi fanno bene

Sono stato paziente nella vita per così tanto tempo.

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.

Tutto questo sta per cambiare.

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.

Tu, che hai frantumato il mio cuore in migliaia di pezzi. 

Tu, che mi hai fatto raccogliere quei pezzi uno per uno, pezzi di uno specchio rotto che mi piaceva guardare.

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.

La mia lealtà non ha mai significato nulla per te.

Il fatto che mi sia dimenticato dei miei problemi per occuparmi dei tuoi mi ha fatto ottenere solo un vuoto ringraziamento da parte tua.

But when things went downhill for me and I needed you to have my back, you pretended you couldn’t hear me.

Mi hai voltato le spalle.

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.

Finalmente ho capito che posso fare quello che voglio.

Devo impegnarmi a fondo ed essere perseverante, non arrendermi mai. Impossibile?

Sarà impossibile rallentarmi. 

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.

Bisogna rischiare un po' e trovare la via d'uscita da una situazione sconosciuta o scomoda.

È così che si costruisce e si diventa migliori e più forti.

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. 

Quindi, eccomi qui, pronta ad accogliere tutto ciò che mi aspetta.

Eccomi qui, felice di accogliere la mia nuova vita e tutte le cose che ne derivano.

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.

E per farlo ci vuole coraggio. Ci vuole tempo per capire cosa fa male.
