Back and overly-emotional

So, I am officially done with my first semester of my sophomore year at university. I'd say that the past few months were stressless, relaxing and I was emotionally stable, but I'd be lying. Horribly.

I think that in that fraction of life, I've experienced a lot more than I ever did in my entire life. It's been hard, no doubt.
From familial, to school, to non-existent love life problems, I've seen it all.
I've even stopped writing.


But now, now that it's over, I want to regain control over my life and mostly my emotions. I feel as if I've been an emotional wreckage, not that I wasn't before. It's just that the stress of university, the "me thinking I was in love," and the turmoil of it l just exacerbated everything.

There's this quote by Steve Maraboli that will forever resonate with me. It says "As I look back on my life, I realize that every time I though I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better."

That's the kind of mindset I, from now onwards, will live by.
No fear.
No regrets.

Wise words of Youmna

To succeed is to have the courage to admit that we're not perfect, to deeply desire becoming better, to realize the richness of being alone.
