I’ll be 22 soon.

Looking back, 21 was a real big deal. I fought so much. I grew up a lot. It felt like a mid-life crisis. I pushed so much people away.

And what more special this year is that I'm spending it with no mega celebration, currently in Taiwan for a Buddhist camp (for those who don't know - follow me on my snapchat for most current updates)!

It’s important to make people see you the way you see you. I know I’m not perfect, but I want to be original.

When we fail, we might be tempted to think that we have wasted our time and thus regret it. But the fact that you have done something is much better than doing nothing.

A reminder to be present today. You aren’t where you were last year and you’re not where you’re going to be next year. Trust yourself in this moment to take yourself where you need to be.

You will find peace with whatever is tormenting you right now. Soon it will become a part of your past and only that.

Like a year ago today, I would not have imagined myself where I am and valuing the people that I do and that is so comforting to know that next year I will have learned and grown even more.

"I heard things about you."

Okay just because you heard shit doesn't always mean it’s true. It could and could not be true. You don’t know if people just made it up to make me look bad or twisted words around to the story. So before you start judging me from what you heard from someone else , you should learn to not always believe what you heard.
