Note to Self...be nice to people

This is a note to people who’ve been in my life. This is also a note to me, to stay on the path that I am on. I want to bring people in my life in on this because you have all shaped me to who I am now. Whether someone has been with me since 6th, 8th grade or high school, or joined my journey in 2013, 2014 or 2019. You have shaped who I am. Whether your impact was negative or positive, I am who I am from my friends, experiences, and the journey so far. I am so blessed that I have the family I have, I am blessed by God from the friends I have. And I would not change a thing that has happened to me. I have been through some pretty scary, and crazy things the past 25 1/2 years. And yet, I would not take back a single thing, health wise, personal life, or situations with friends. God has put me in certain situations that HE KNEW would make me who I am today. Yeah sometimes I’m lazy and don’t want to do anything. But if you knew half of the stuff I’ve been through you’d see that the times I’m lazy really isn’t that big of a deal. I have endured some pretty scary health issues with myself, or with family members. I have had some pretty intense anxiety since I was 15, but has slowly become okay. I don’t want to get so in depth with family things, so i’ll just say it has been anything but normal. And I have had some pretty incredible friends I’ve made along the way, who have stayed by my side and let me know they weren’t going anywhere. But I’ve also had those who have left me, and that’s okay, because they all taught me something. Not everyone is meant to stay in your life, in fact, God puts certain people in your life to learn something, and then takes them out. Now, I can’t say that I haven’t tried to get certain people back, but God knows that they can’t go with, and has had to remind me several times I’m better off without them. So to let them go, was difficult and I’m quite stubborn, but in the end I got the hints. I’ve had ups and downs, and the ups have been some of the most amazing ups, but when I say I’ve had downs, they have been life changing. I mean if you’re going to have ups make them the very best you can, and the lows you might hit rock bottom. But than it makes the rest of your journey seem like a cake walk. Now, in no way am I saying life is a cake walk or should be. If you have a boring, no ups and no downs life, you’d be dead. Straight line just like one of the medical machines. You don’t want a boring straight line life. Make your ups memorable and your downs something to learn from.
