A Cliche

I am first and foremost whole heartedly against cliches and silly sayings, but perhaps in this case, the phrase "everything happens for a reason" happens to ring true.

My life was not in the direction I wanted to go. As of now, it isn't either, but at least I am willing to progress and move on. I have a better understanding of self than I have ever known before. Well... At least how I believe it to be....

I know what path I should follow in order to create the happiness that I ultimately need/want for myself. All in all, bliss comes first when one is happy with oneself first. It may sound selfish, but how can one please others when one is not satisfied with self?

I am still scarred... I am still hurt... But more than ever, this scar has allowed me to move on and march forward. From now on, I drum to my own beat. Maybe then I will know what true happiness is and satisfaction of self. For now, I can only make the decisions that will lead me to that point.
