Regaining Life

I had it pointed out to me that I have lost a lot of who I am. I've lost many of the things that made me happy. There are so many things that I enjoy doing and have wanted to be doing but I lost the motivation. I got caught up in making others happy that I wasn't spending the time I needed on me. I've been so down on myself thinking there wasn't any point to anything anymore. It was never gonna amount to anything or it was a waste of my time to get out and do certain things. Over the last couple years I have become content and comfortable with sitting in my room reading or playing on the computer. It became routine. But I'm a social butterfly. I enjoy being out and active and making people laugh, meeting new friends. I've realized everything I've been missing out on. So, I am taking back my life. Everything that I had so much fun doing. I have gotten myself a membership to start going back to the gym. I have found dance lessons that I am looking forward to taking every week along with the zumba classes at the gym. I am going out every chance I get whether I have someone with me or not. I can make friends if I have no one to come with me. I always have. I'm going out to the clubs, shooting pool, doing some bowling. I'm back in school and doing great. I have so much ahead of me and so much to look forward to. Of course I'd love to have someone to share it all with but I've made it this far on my own. Why stop now? It's time to stop worrying about what others think and making others happy and just do what I enjoy. Do what makes me happy. So here's to being myself and hoping that everyone will see the real me and take me as I am. Here's to having fun and enjoying life again.
