[day 6: fixing]

have you ever heard the song by coldplay? says something like "lights will guide you home, and i will try to fix you" [i think it's actually called fix you] well, i've decided something. the only person that can truly do the fixing is yourself. sometimes you wander around, trying to figure out what to do and how to do it. sometimes, you do it for others.

it could be to satisfy your
friends,
parents,
girlfriend,
boyfriend,
or bestfriend.

maybe a little piece of it is to satisfy yourself.
but, eventually, the drive to satisfy
another's needs is overridden by the
drive of self-satisfaction.
which is an amazing thing!
for me, self-satisfaction [not to be confused with selfishness]
is the driving force behind a lot of things.

where i am right now in my life
the only thing i really need to be doing is
worrying about doing the best things for myself.
learning to do them by myself.
that is what college is for.
not only do you gain a higher education from your books,
you gain a higher education of yourself.
which is what i'm working on right now!

this is a little shout out to all of you who
have realized that you should start doing things for
yourself. that you need to improve yourself
for the right reasons.

i sincerely believe that if you are actively working to improve yourself into the best version of you that you can be, then things will just start falling into place. not that they will become easier, but that life will start working together better.

for those working towards the best versions of yourselves, keep your chin up. keep fixing yourself to become the best you! i'm right there with you. just remember who loves you!
and remember what you're working towards....
yourself.
