on life

Shh, don’t tell anyone.. but sometimes I write serious blog posts.

I’m not a wise person, and I really haven’t experienced as much in life than may other, probably wiser people. But, here’s why I feel I’m qualified to write the following post:

<life resume>

• I’ve made mistakes
• I’ve been filled with regret
• I’ve been in love
• I’ve had my heartbroken
• I’ve uprooted my life
• I’ve felt entirely alone
• I’ve built a new life for myself
• I’ve finally torn down my walls

<advice>
Be happy. Don’t apologize for it. There’s not enough time to not be happy. And don’t be afraid to take chances. There’s not enough time to be too scared to live your life. Even if you don’t get the desired result, you still learn a lot about yourself in the process. In the moment, you might feel worthless, crushed, devastated. You might feel like that for a day, a week, a month, even a year. But you know what? The sun is going to rise all of those days, and you just have to make yourself rise with it. Slowly, but rising steadily all the same. And, as cheesy and cliche as this is, you’re going to shine even brighter than you did before.
