Getting Older

We’re all getting older, that’s inevitable, but are we all getting wiser as well?

I’d like to think at almost 27 years old I am getting wiser as the years go on. This years theme is doing things that make me happy and not worrying about what anyone else thinks. I have spent so much time trying to cater to everyone around me in the hopes of them liking me but during that process I realized I was unhappy and didn’t like who I was looking at in the mirror. I became a people pleaser and often changed myself to “fit in”. This year I say f*ck that and f*ck being nice to people who don’t give a sh*t about you because people are only thinking of themselves and you’re wasting your precious time on this earth doing things you don’t wanna do.

It’s easier said than done to stop caring what others think but once you start doing the things you’ve always wanted to do then you start to gain the confidence from the joy it gives you. So go get that piercing or tattoo that you’ve been wanting for ages but have been too scared of what people will think of you. Dye your hair bright pink if it will bring you pure happiness and joy.

Life really is too short. You never know when/how things can change so just have fun and be yourself!!!
