Let Go, Let Be

In the process of growing up and maturing into a better woman I have gained a new MOTTO!

Let go, and Let Be.

This can be interpreted differently for each individual person but for me it means:
Let Go: Meaning to relax and release your emotional fears.
Let Be: Meaning to allow your life to take its own course, mistakes and all.

There were times when I bottled up emotions and hated every mistake I ever made!
And I'm not sure when I came to the conclusion that I was holding myself back. . .
I realized that I couldn't continue to cry and feel sorry for myself. I realized that I was turning into a person I didn't want to be come. And I realized that I would never be happy if things didn't change.
These realizations came over time. After many obstacles and setbacks. After many mistakes and self analyzing I realized I could never be the "perfect" person was trying to be. I could never live up to the "hype". And I could never be anyone but who I wanted to be.

Once you reach this type of conclusion in your life things change. My mind set grew to be more focused and goal oriented. I opened up from my shyness and took on tasks I wouldn't normally take up. I am nowhere near where I want to be in the long run but I am making progress at my own pace.

For now I will

Let Go, and Let Be.
