And It Feels Like Another Life.

Have you ever looked back on something you've written? A blog post, a diary, a letter? No? Well then I recommend you to start writing now. Start writing about whatever comes to mind about you life. Even if it's the fact that you had pancakes for dinner (breakfast for dinner, whoop, whoop!), or something significant like having you first kiss or getting your drivers license.

Write. Feel what you write. Pour every ounce of what your feeling onto that page, because when you look back on it sometime in the future, whether it's a month from now, or six months, or a year, or five years, you will come to realise the changes in yourself. How you have grown, and also how you have stayed the same. Because I am telling you now, that it is an experience unlike anything else.

And it just happened to me. I want back on my tumblr, to a post I wrote over a year ago, and reading it, I remembered those feelings, the hurt, the incredible feeling of hopelessness I felt that day. And I realised that I have grown so much since that day. I have changed so completely. But I can still sometimes hurt in the same way, and all of that opened my eyes.

It's wierd you know, some people go a lifetime without ever documenting their life, and I wonder how they see the growth in themselves. Because seeing it with your own eyes is so different from just being told by other people that you've changed. It makes the change and growth real. Real to yourself, because you have physical proof of it. You have proof that you are a different person, even though you feel the same.
