Life Changes

We all know of times where we realise someone or something no longer serves us. But why can it be so hard to let go? I’m currently going through a major transition in my life, lifestyle wise, career wise, and friendship wise.

In particular, I am struggling with the idea of cutting people who no longer serve me, out of my life. People who once made me happy and were beneficial are now different. It’s hard when you know someone for so long and have so many great memories with them. But in the end, I have learnt that certain people have disappointed me and no longer deserve my time and energy. It’s tough because you want to see the person the way the way they used to be. You believe they can change and you want them to stay around. But at the end of the day, deep down, you know they aren’t worth trying so hard for.

Lifestyle wise I have just moved cities to pursue a university degree. Where I am now is full of opportunity and I know it’s where I need to be. But it is sad to say goodbye to a place you know, a place where all your friends and family are.

I know this transition will make me a stronger person, and I know all this will be beneficial for me. I will learn a lot, and am currently learning a lot. I’m learning that I need to put myself first right now. I need to work on being more independent, focussed and positive. This is a time for me to better myself as a person and flourish.

Life’s tough, there’s no question about it. There are many ups and downs coming my way, but it’s about how I handle it. Here’s to trying to survive another year and develop as a person.
