You can be a strong woman and still be soft. You can be independent and still need people. Finding a balance between strong and independent and learning how to trust and allow someone else to be there can be a challenge. I have lived alone now for almost 4 years, and I have been on this amazing journey of self discovery and self awareness. I feel so good in my own skin and know that while I have things I want to change about who I am, there are so many things about me that I feel are awesome. Learning to focus on what you have to offer and not the things that you are insecure about is hard. We always tend to, okay, I always tend to see what I need to work on or change. I have been making a conscious effort lately to really embrace what I have to give others and what about me is good. This life we have is so short, and so precious. I just want to laugh and smile to bring light into other peoples lives as well. I love this journey, it is so rugged, and yet so smooth sometimes. The twists and turns have led to this place that I am at now. I am blessed beyond belief and truly thank God everyday for all that I have. What I don't have right now will all come in time. The things that will define me as I get older are not things that you can hold in your hand, they are not tangible, but instead they are the things I have to offer that can't be seen.
