I'm better.
A very good friend noted that he hadn't seen me since last semester. That was 2010 Reni and he said he needs to see the new me. No, I didn't make some resolution to be brand new in 2011 but things have really changed since December 31st, 2010. My problems aren't the same. I look a little different. I have cried more tears. My smiles are for different reasons. The important figures in my life have since changed. I have accomplished a little more. Not all of it by choice either, unfortunately. Yes, taking control of your life and putting yourself through the necessary processes to be where you want to be is empowering and all well and great. However, when there are things in your life you don't have complete control of, things can get a little shaky for you. This is where I stand. Trying to stop beating myself up over something I had very little control over. Trying to get past the negatives and focus on every single positive of the situation. Luckily, time passing is inevitable and even if I'm struggling to come to terms with it all, with every passing day, it's getting a little bit easier. Am I completely fine? No, but I'm better.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference. Amen
