New year
I see all these posts about leaving the negative behind. Walking away from the negative. I'm all for that. My concern is how do you know if the negative is someone else and not you.
I cant speak for others but I think if I say I'm walking away from the negative it is bringing more to me. Instead I choose to see the beauty in every person who has come into my life. I am thankful for them all because they taught me something. At one point there was positive with them and I choose to focus on that.
Paths criss cross and who we are when we walk away is only for us to decide. So I will unblock all my paths. I wont deny someone the chance to help me grow because I am afraid my emotions (anger) will get the better of me.
This year I will listen and analyze before I react. I will not give multiple chances but I will try to not have dramatic painful endings. If I cant leave someone better than I found them then I need to look at me and see where I can grow. Friends come and go, but it is up to us what we take with us from each one.
I have a lot of growing to do. I have a few great people I've let in and I will learn from them and be better. I am not darkness or negativity and I am so sorry if that is what you see. I will be better than I was and each day grow more and more.
Sometimes looking back reminds us where we came from. Others blogs may have sparked this one but taking my walk through my past with Sir has shown me how much I've grown and just how much I've always been the same.
