Gravity

In the last six months, I think I've grown more as a person than I have in my entire life. I've learned how to deal with being okay with who I am and the way I think and feel. I have stopped worrying incessantly about what other people are going to think about my decisions. I can honestly say I am who I am and that's 100% okay. Not really an easy road though. I was victim to many people who controlled my emotions and pulled me down. Truly toxic relationships. I don't regret those people being in my life at one point or another because it got me to where I am now. As Sara Bareilles' song Gravity says: Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.

Set me free, leave me be
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall
Just the way I'm supposed to be

Oh, you loved me 'cause I'm fragile
When I thought that I was strong
But you touch me for a little while
And all my fragile strength is gone

I live here on my knees
As I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need
Here on the ground
But you're neither friend nor foe
