Happiness♥

Yesterday, I spilled paint on my t-shirt during art class, and I thought I would freak out, but I just kept my cool and went on with my work. If it had been 2 years ago, I would've gone wild, because I cared so much about what people would say. Now I hardly pay attention on how I look. All I care about is what I'm doing at the moment. I've gained confidence over the years and I myself have noticed through little things like doing my own thing rather than following someone else. Confidence is very important when growing up and useful when reaching the point of adulthood. When I was 14 years old and starting high school, I wanted to fit in. Therefore, I became someone who cared about what others thought about me. Now I'm graduating in June and becoming an adult and at the moment looks do not mean much to me. Some of the inducements that keep me going are my family. My family made me see that confidence had much to do with success and being a better person. Many Mistakes were made during my journey through school,because of my lack of confidence, but I never stayed on the ground when I fell on my face. I got back up and kept going.

I'm very proud of myself and so is my family. My mother had advised me that she had seen a total change in the way I act. My little sister had also added that I had different views when I spoke to her and my voice was no longer gossamer, but more tough and loud. My family said I was becoming a great role model for my younger cousins and for my aunts and uncles. Brivety made me feel that life was going to slow. Although at some points it was, I felt that it was better that way so I could take notice of the changes I was going through.
