BLESSEDBeing in a place where most of my good memories come from, I started realizing: love, doesn't matter where it comes from, it feels good.
I may not have everything right now, I may not have a boyfriend, but I do have my family who will support me through everything and my friends who won't betray me or leave me alone, and I feel really blessed having that.
A lot of people say it: friends and boy/girlfriends come and go, but family will never leave you. Not everyone really understand it. I didn't either, but now I do. I realize that no matter what I do, the people in my family are the only people I can really trust and who will never leave my side. These are the people who will always acknowledge my worth and won't under- or overstimate me.
They know what I can do and how strong I am and they won't doubt my capability. They keep me going when I can not
So many times I have said that life sucks and life is a bitch, but it doesn't and it isn't. So often, people tend to hate life because of one setback, but they don't have to. Setbacks are there to make you stronger, to evolve the person you are. Everything in your life is a blessing, even the not so good things.
Do not forget that how dark your life may seem there is always a ray of light somewhere, you just have to look for it and see it. Do not close your eyes because you are afraid of the dark. Keep your eyes open so that you can see the light, big or small. And, when you decide to cry, don't cry because you're sad, cry tears of happiness, because you realize that life is not a bitch at all, life is one whole blessing...
