20 Things I Learned in my 20s
These past couple of years I've learned a lot
I've learned that sunshine really does make you feel happier,
And seasonal depression is a real thing.
I've learned that singing in the car as loud as you can to your favourite song does count as self care.
And so does sleeping.
I've learned that eating healthy and working out doesnt cure depression
It can help you feel a bit better about yourself though.
I've learned that silence in a conversation speaks louder than a thousand words spoken
And you cant force people to stay in your life who dont wanna be there.
I've learned that laughter is so healing
And finding someone who can make you laugh while you're in tears is so important.
I've learned that everyone has a story and a past.
And everyone has been through something that has changed them for better or for worse, but we're in no position to judge each other for it.
I've learned that in life you need to accept not everyday will be good but there will always be something good in your day.
And some days you'll feel on top of the world while other days you'll feel crushed underneath it.
I've learned it's okay to be sad, to cry and to break down.
And that as hard as it is to believe this yourself, you still deserve to be happy no matter what your demons are or what your mind tells you.
I've learned that people always leave but the good ones stick around, and sometimes people come back around.
And that the only person who can make your life better is you, so it's time you, we, I all push ourselves a little more each day.
Most importantly though, I've learned that life is worth living, yours is too I promise this.
And I'm proud of myself and I'm proud of you, for still being here.
