Time for a change

Once I make this change
I'm never looking back.

Everyone has a story, and everyone wants to be remembered. So I thought I’d start writing my story and I hope one day it is read, and I am remembered.

The only trouble is, is I’m not quite sure where to start…

I guess I will start by introducing myself. I am Leah. I am eighteen years of age but I have been told I am years ahead of my time. I am very strong willed and I do not bend / break to any kind of pressure. My life only runs smoothly when I have a plan. When a plan is set everything seems to fall into place. I am a Cancer, which means I am a home body and I am very sensitive and passionate. I have just come to realize how true horoscopes are. Its almost shocking. I have what appears to be a ‘stand of ish’ attitude, that is only because my past has left scars and I am not one to open up or trust on the spot. I have built up walls and only one person was able to break them down, but he too scared me and from the pain he caused me, more walls were built. I keep to myself most of the time, and I only enjoy spending time with certain people. I am not one to venture out of my comfort zone. And on the rare occasions that I do it is mandatory that I have my best friend by my side. Most of my life, or at least the time I have had actual control over, I have spent my time trying to please everyone but myself. I have always put aside my best interests and feelings to make others proud or happy. But recently I had a change of heart. I realized life is short, and you only have one life to live and if you spend all of your time focusing on everyone and everything around you except yourself all your doing is wasting precious time. Helping people and making people happy is one thing but when you begin to ignore yourself things need to change. And that is exactly what I’m doing. And once I make this change, I’m never looking back…

So I guess I’m writing this blog so that I can see my progression and change as I go…

That is all for now. I’m sure I’ll be writing again soon.
