Sometimes life will test you… see what you are made of

My 20s have been full of tests, and I would like to think I have been passing, but man they are really coming as curve balls.

At the end of the day I am happy with who I am and am secure in the decisions I have made thus far in my life. I have taken many many risks. Some for love, some for my career goals, some for the simple fact that I am young and can take risks. 

I have been heartbroken, disappointed, felt loved, felt abandoned, felt mislead. I have seen myself accomplish things that I had only dreamt about and I have also made mistakes. 

I have seen people come and go in my life. Then come back…. then go again.

I have developed trust issues — but I have also realized exactly what it takes to earn trust. 

I have watch people around me grown and developed into amazing people — and I have watched others change and fade away. 

Life is a series of test and how we adapt and move on and grow is all part of the ride.

I am only human and I can only - be alive.
