06 Never Loose Sight Of Yourself

We often loose sight of our true self without even knowing it by letting our everyday lives consume us. Whether its a job, relationship, friendship, conflict.--At first you won't notice yourself starting to conform to bad habits. It’s something that hits you later on. I’m not trying to say that changing who you are is always bad. I have changed quite a bit, but they are all changes for the better.

Staying true yourself can be a bit difficult especially when you're in a long term relationship. You might start to feel lost, out of balance with who you really are, but that's okay. The hard part is how you'll decide to handle it. Its best to discuss this feeling with your partner instead of making a decision on your own, forcing your partner to go along with it.

Personally, I've often lost track of who i really was. But after numerous disappointments & heartbreak I learned that none truly has your back but you. I learned to be independent and rely on myself. I learned to cater to my own needs and build and mold myself the way I have always dreamed. I started writing a lot (this blog is an example of my thoughts). I took myself out on dates. I watched movies with myself. I talked to myself. I go for walks and drives by myself. I have forced myself into situations where I am alone so I don’t have a choice but to learn to enjoy my own company.

But sometimes, I don't want to be alone, to be alone with my thoughts...It reminds me of the harsh reality......
