Parting of ways

Earlier this month, I realized that I am an extreme people pleaser and a serious attention whore. These tendencies, however, come with a heavy cost.

At that moment, I was left with a choice, continue my life as is, or declare a parting of ways. Do I go on pleasing others, or blazing my own path? I chose the latter. Every day, I am surrendering myself and my life to this possibility of being detached - not letting what others do/ say affect me. I am enough.

I am scared, for I never had to do this parting of ways before. Not to mention that this go against everything I have known for most of my life. This leap of faith, however, sets me on a new path that I journey down everyday. I may not know where I will end up, but that's okay.
