Better Than Before

Life isn’t perfect—not the way I once wanted it—but it’s definitely better than before. This peaceful silence feels like heaven. Maybe I haven’t gained much, but I’ve cleared out a lot of toxicity and negativity. I feel safe and rooted in the present moment. I forgive and let go of whatever holds me back from something new. I choose quality people—those who love, accept, and support me for who I am. Their honesty and loyalty make life easier. But no matter how many people love you, never stop loving yourself. I remind myself that I’m responsible for myself.

Sometimes memories and trauma hunt me, and sometimes it feels like nothing will ever be alright. But I believe in myself. I know I’m strong and brave enough to make things right. If I’ve come this far, I can go further. I choose where to spend my energy and time because wasting it on the unworthy leaves none for what really matters—my dreams, my passions. I accept myself fully and shut down all the voices telling me who I should be. I don’t fit your frame—and I don’t care. My mind and body are my concern, not anyone else’s. My mental and physical health come first.

I’m not responsible for everyone and everything. I can’t do it all, so I’ve stopped worrying about what I can’t control. Life will unfold as it should. I used to fear being alone, but now I embrace it. I live individually on this planet. No one is responsible for my life but me. I enjoy my alone time, knowing growth is ongoing—even when it’s uncomfortable. I’m ready to change, improve, and become better. I’m grateful for this life and exactly where I am.
