it's a choice.

Ever since my disorder, I have constantly tried to surround myself with a positive environment and avoid falling back into bad habits. I keep my friends and family close, I stay busy with school and activities, and I really try to focus on other people. I just try to be happy...and if there is one thing I have learned, it's that happiness is a choice. You get to choose your destiny and your happiness... how intimidating, yet exciting, is it to know that life is a blank page and that we get to put in it whatever we want. What is it that you really love? Where do you want to go? Who do you want to be? Don't for one second think that you are not good enough or are incapable of reaching something BIG. In today's fast pace and high tech society, too many people are being judged by their surface and skimmed over. People are not being recognized for their true potential and they are forgetting what they can achieve. If they are not the best of the best, they are pushed down and told they will never make it...and after a while that can really wear on you...
So don't let the ways of the world get you down and make you feel small. Don't sell yourself short and think that you don't have enough of 'this or that' to get you where you want to go. Choose to be strong. Choose to work hard everyday. Choose to smile... and choose to be happy. No one can do it for you.
