I Am Not the Person I Used to Be

I used to be this ball of sunshine parading her gleaming light to everyone, being hopeful and positive as always...

But when life happened, I shrunk into oblivion, turning everything into nothing... Bending hopes into doubts... Changing success into failures... Spitting lies as if it were the truth... I guess, life did really changed me, making me swap from the person I that I was to the person I wasn't used to be.

@DearAmbellina2113 but it's not that sad, right? At least you get to have a new perception. You've learned some things you still haven't known yet...

@yourstrulytrish I'm not sad at all. I was a total doormat and allowed people to use me up for years. I was a people-pleaser and it drained me. I'm much more self-reliant now and not afraid to call people on their bullshit.

@DearAmbellina2113 damn. I thought you read my mind. That's me just a year ago. But now, I know who to please and who to ignore. Because let's be honest here, they were contributors as to why we were what we are right now.
