We always look for comfort and advice in the words of others we hold closest to our hearts. People we think that will get us and understand us and see where we are coming from. But that couldn't be farther from the truth. We seek these people and the words of wisdom they may give because we know they will be on our side, and tell us what we want to hear. At the end of the day these people just want what is best for us, even if we don't see it that way.

We vent, we cry, we talk and say we know better, but at the end of the day we are still going to do what we want despite any advice anybody gives us. Because at the end of the day it our lives that we are living and no one else is living it for us. It's our lives, and we choose what we want to do whether it be bad decisions or good ones. We write our own story no one else can do that for us.

Everyone's life is a unique scripture of who we are, and that's why everyone has a great story to tell. Whether it was a lesson to be learned or taking a leap of faith to pursue something or someone. We do what we do because we believe it's the best thing for us at the moment, and that's okay. Not everyone will understand what we do and why we do it. Because they are not living what we are living or feeling what we are feeling. People can give you so much advice, but we choose whether or not we want to take it.

People say " I've been through what you are going through ", but it was never exactly what we have been through. People use similar situations to compare what we go through to give some sort of advice on it, because hey that's what friends are for. They will be there to support you through the bad and good choices we make throughout our lives. That's what real friends do sometimes they may not agree with what we do, but have not right to judge because no one and I mean absolutely no one is perfect.

If we chose to listen to what others tell us on what to do or what they think we should do then our story wouldn't be as unique. We are individuals for a reason, and unique in our own ways. When we grow old and we have stories to tell it'll be because we chose to make those decisions not anybody else. It's because we have our own mind, we have our own lives to live nobody else does that for us. So I say keep making those decisions you want to make. Keep writing your story, and being who you are, because at the end of the day someone will appreciate how you take control of your life, and don't listen to what others say.

This writing is just a few words of encouragement, just to be you. Make those decisions on your own without having two cents put it from anyone else. Everyone does what they want regardless, but don't let the words of others have you regret anything you do. That's where people stop doing what they want because they think about what others will think or say. No one can feel what you are feeling, and no one can make any decisions but yourself. It's your body your mind your life and you get to choose how you want to write your story. Be unique, be bold, be unexpected, just be you without any remorse of what others have to say.
