i am my own worst enemy

November 01, 2016 by mae

i admitted to a friend that i have a hard time trusting myself, and i can, at most times, be my own worst enemy. in resonance with my friend adriana, this was her response, "My general goal is to not do anything that telegraphs my insecurity. No one needs to know the extent to which I'm under construction." i am halfway through life and i am only finding myself still building the foundation to what i hope will withstand any natural or man-made disasters.

here's to the many storms, as well as sunny days, ahead!

let the situation be

i believe that the people we meet at certain points or phases in our lives serves a purpose, mostly for our own personal growth. then there comes a time when they no longer do that, when we no longer serve each other. in most of those cases, one doesn't necessarily have to let them go, but rather, just let the situation be.
