So What!

This year has kind of been  the year of putting to rest my negative emotions and many ways a birth of self empowerment. I am less concerned with keeping everyone else happy this year and more concerned with respect, both giving and receiving it. I am finding myself saying to myself so much more this year, "so What"!

Someone isnt happy with a choice I make.. So what! I missed out on getting something at the shops,,, so what! Someone doesn't like me,,, A huge so what, I like the me  that is emerging that's what counts isnt it?

I am finding  as I become more confident of the  path and lessons I am learning I am enjoying life  and situations that used to have me stressing out and feeling like I needed to prepare myself for are becoming less stressful and in turn more enjoyable. I am  finding  by not backing down  from my own wants out of life  the scariest things I had imagined would happen, dont actually happen. plus I gain confidence in myself each time I do stand up for my beliefs or wishes. I am finding a kind of freedom  when I remember to not worry so much about what others think when I am following my dream or being myself.

Its not second nature yet, for every  2 days I remember to  be myself and be proud to show me being me there is still 1 day I forget and feel my confidence dip sorely on those days. Luckily they are becoming a less dramatic dips in confidence.
