I know that there are so many times that things don’t turn out the way I was hoping or even expecting.

I’ve learned to be okay with that, no matter how much I wanted something to work out.

Whether it’s life disappointing me, love breaking my heart or even a friend letting me down, I know now it’s just part of the journey.

I can’t let those letdowns and failures make me bitter, I have to use those learnings to make me better.

I’ve promised myself to keep getting stronger with each setback, wiser with each heartache and braver with each wrong turn.

It doesn’t get any easier or sting any less, but it does help me to step back and regroup when things get too heavy.

One bad choice, hurt or detour isn’t the end of the world.

In fact, I’ll learn more from those things than I ever will when everything goes my way.

I won’t tell you I want the bad stuff to happen, because no one does..

But I can choose how it affects me and how’s react to it..

And I’m getting better at taking it in stride.

Trying to find the silver lining, lesson to be learned and believing that things work out the way they are meant to.

It still stings when people let me down and I get my heart broken.

But my strength is growing and so is my determination.

One day, maybe I’ll be at a place where nothing fazes me, but I doubt it.

I’ll keep doing the best I can with what I have and make the most of the opportunities I have.

Life will never be perfect and neither will I.

But come what may, I’ve learned there’s beauty in the moments- even in the detours that take me places I never thought I’d be.

It’s up to me to enjoy those too, even if I never thought I could.

I’m strong enough, brave enough and wise enough to take it all in and breathe out happiness.

If it’s to be, it’s up to me.

And I’m choosing to find the rhyme and reason, no matter how much it hurts.

One day, I’ll be standing on top of those mountains that tried to destroy me..smiling.

Knowing that I climbed it all by myself and enjoyed the moments as well as the milestones.

And that, I know, will have made all the difference.

I’ll get there.
