21st November 2013

I realised today that I need to concentrate more on myself.  I have always aimed to make other people happy and I take great pride in that BUT... it's time to focus on me.  It may sound selfish but I feel that it is needed.  I have spent a great deal of my life burrowing my emotions, my feelings and spirituality.  I've been telling myself it doesn't matter and that I should just be striving for success in ways everyone else can see. 

Lately I have realised... I don't want that. Sure, it's great to have things and not have to worry about material possessions but all I honestly want is to live a happy and full life.  For a large proportion of my teenage years I was unhappy and I've been slowly recovering since.  Even though the depression is long gone, I feel that there are still remnants that are slowly being chipped away.  My life is so much brighter and fuller than it was back then and I want to continue this way but I want to make it better. 

I want to live life with a positive attitude: to find things and people that I love and commit my time to them.
