Hello, this is my first post. I wanted to wait to start my blog until I felt something that I wanted to express. Today is that day. First, let me introduce myself. On here, you can refer to me as C. I'm a girl in highschool, and I have a lot on my mind that I want to share, but don't have anyone to share it with. So, that is the reason for you.
Today was a good day. I have decided that finally, I am truly happy. Have you ever had that moment of realization that everything in the world is beautiful, and that you have no reason to be unhappy? If you have, kudos to you. If you haven't, I pray that someday you will. For a long time, I have been caught up in the usual highschool things. I'd always said that I didn't care if a certain girl didn't like me, although deep inside it really bothered me. I'd always wish that I was friends with the "other" group of kids, that I had those 20 guys to choose from, and all of those stupid things that really don't matter. Now I can finally see that those things honestly could matter less. 20 years from now, it's not going to matter if I was number one on the social latter, or if I had the popular boyfriend. I want to look back and see that I was happy. I am. This year of highschool has so far been great. I've bonded with people who I wasn't friends with before, I've become more open and friendly, and I've allowed myself to grow as a person. So far, it's working out for the better. I'm proud of who I am. I am having a great time, and there's always a smile on my face. Life is about enjoying everything that you do, taking risks, and not second guessing yourself. The phrase, "You only have one life to live," is so over-used and sounds so cliche. However, when you think about it, it's true. We have one shot, so it's time to make the best of it.
The brightside today? I've finally realized what really matters in life.
