Silence.

I believe I have found some peace within myself. I believe I have achieved a happiness within myself that I never could dream about.

I wish that life wasn't ranked on how successful you are in life.
But by how happy you take your own life with everything that surrounds you.

Lately, I've sat in the middle of my room with my eyes closed, I sit and clear my mind and I awaken with a smile and a new persepctive on life everytime.

Could you imagine if everyone were to live in a village where money is not an issue, where status wasn't on everyone's mind. Could you imagine waking up in the morning everyday and not having to worry about impressing this person or following another.

I make life to be a bitch sometimes. But as the saying goes: Life is exactly what you make of it and i'm starting to cherish that thought more and more everyday.

I try not to let anything restrict me from enjoying my life. If it's positive then I will marvel in it. If it's negative I will forget it and not regret nor ponder the question "what if". Instead I wil ltry to smile and not worry too much about the bad things in life.

I've accepted and forgiven a lot of bad thigns that happened to me in the past. I've even reconciled with someone whom I told myself I would never respect and do the exact opposite of what he did.
I've Joined a group to help a little brother.
I've started to volunteer at a youth group called Young Life.

I used to believe that I was doing a lot for people, How I always sacrificed my time, How I sacrificed so much in my life for people that come in and outta my life. I've come to the conclusion that if it wasn't for these people, I would not be who I am today.
