growing up

It takes courage to grow up and be who you really are.

-ee cummings

It's amazing how much we learn and grow and change in such short amounts of time.

This year, I am learning a lot about growing up. It's not as easy as I thought it would be. It can often be very difficult trying to sort out your feelings and beliefs, and determine who you really are and what makes you, you. When you begin to feel who you are deep within your soul, it can be scary to let that light shine.
There are moments that mark your life, moments when you realize nothing will ever be the same again, and time is divided into two parts, before this and after this, now sometimes you can feel such a moment coming, that's the test, or so I tell myself at times like these: strong people keep moving forward anyway, no matter what they're gonna find.
