We're born, we live, and then we die. An eight-word sentence carrying the entire weight of a life. One we may hear every now and then, but one we never actually listen to. And once we do take the time to listen, that's when we choose to stretch out the "we live" part for as long as we can.556Please respect copyright.PENANAwTG1Rblzgf
I haven't been alive for very long, but I have been living. I've taken trivial moments for granted, such as those mornings when I would walk to school with my siblings and those ten minutes would be nothing but peaceful. I've made mistakes both small and life-changing, but both my ups and downs made me who I am today. Sometimes I live a bland life; other times I do crazy things that some people only dream about. Nevertheless I feel that I'm being tethered down by those around me. So whenever I do get that burst of freedom (be it a small vacation or when I'm simply on my own) I make the most of it.556Please respect copyright.PENANANiGSCHZd77
There are people around me who try too hard to be different or too hard to be like everyone and it makes me sad because I would rather just live. My wins and fails have molded me to be . . . Me! Not her, not him, and not you. It took me too long to accept that my mistakes have already happened; it took me too long to forgive myself. And I believe that once you can forgive yourself for those mistakes, life's yours for the taking.556Please respect copyright.PENANA1wduqJcuRc
In the end . . . I'm a person just like you, but in her own way. A freckle here, a wrinkle there, whatever! Life is a risky adventure, so it's all about whether or not you want to take risks and grab them by the horns. I've learned the hard way that self-doubt is more crippling than peer-criticism, so be your own best friend. Items are only temporary, but love and memories are permanent. Spend less on everyday things and invest more time and love on the people who surround you. I live by a new set of rules that didn't exist for me in the past, and everything in my last (x) amount of years has made the writer of this today. And I'm doing all I can to wring the most out of this crazy thing called life.556Please respect copyright.PENANAtke8sicfZY
