Time really does fly by.

I've been in Texas for almost a year now. I still don't believe it. I honestly feel like my plane landed yesterday. I'll still never forget that day, either. I was sad and happy and nervous all at the same time. It still didn't hit me that I was leaving New York. It all happened so fast. My parents told me I would regret it. Do I? Not even a little. If I could go back and do it over again, I would.
I think moving to Texas was the best decision I've made in my life so far. I came here heartbroken and damaged in so many ways. I had no idea what I was going to do with myself and my sister and her husband came in and helped. I can't thank them enough. My relationship with my sister has become so much stronger and that's just one of the reasons I'm glad everything happened the way it did. She's my best friend.
I finally am learning to love myself. I've learned so many things about myself since being here that I never knew before. I can proudly say I'm a truly good person and anyone that walks into my life is lucky (though, I could say I'm a lucky person, too). I'm smart and funny and when you are in need, I'll always be there. If you're a friend, I like to make you happy and give you as much as I can.
I'm also learning that, although it sucks, even those you want to stay in your life forever, won't. Sometimes things happen and the situation drastically changes and you're not a part of each others lives anymore. It happens. That's life. It was upsetting at first, but I've accepted this. Enjoy the time you were able to spend with that person and cherish those memories, but move on. You're going to meet so many more people in your life, some will fade out, but you'll find some amazing people that will stay through thick and thin.
Now, it's a new year. I'm ready for a change. I'm ready to accomplish big things in 2013. I'm ready to worry about myself and become the best possible me that I can. I'm nervous and excited but I know I can do it. I've got some big plans that I'm starting to push for, but I won't get into that now, just in case it doesn't happen.
I can honestly say that I love myself and I'm the happiest I've been in such a long time. It's a good feeling.
