Finding Your Place

---

I love this topic because it's something I am still in the process of doing (obviously, I'm only 20)! In a way, I feel as though everyone is regardless of their age.

Take this blog for instance... I decided to start this (with a little push from someone very close to my heart) with no clue what was going to happen, what type of content I was going to have, or even if anyone was going to view this. I decided to just jump and go with it because regardless of what everyone else thinks, I know that I have always wanted to do something like this and I also know that I'm basically starting a new chapter in my life... or maybe flipping the page? Either way, there's no better time like the present right?

ANYWAYS, finding your place in this world is definitely a journey. A journey full of excitement, love, heartbreak, understanding, misunderstanding, and so so much more. Finding your place in this world involves "singing in the rain, even when the sky is dark," or smiling even though you're in a tough place. Life is quite literally what you make of it if you want me to be completely honest.

Now, if you're wondering... Yes! I have found my place. I am thriving and never going through the struggle, I know EXACTLY what I want to do in life...... and I make jokes!!!!

Please... I WISH I knew what I was even having for dinner tonight, much less where exactly I am going to end up and what path God will want me to take.

This journey that I have been on so far has been... something else. There have been more ups than downs, thankfully. I have had many friends, and I have had very little. I have had days, weeks, months where nothing but goodness and positivity had been shown to my life and then times when the opposite took its place. I have had the worst of times in college and the best. BUT, through all of this, I have had a few constants. Constants like: God, my family, my best friends that I've been lucky enough to have my entire life (basically), my boyfriend and his family.

In finding your place, having constants and looking towards God are always the first steps in achieving the happiness and wholeness that your wondering heart is constantly searching for. How else are you going to know where to go or which way the right one is? I can promise you that someone will always happily share their opinion or an idea of what they think you should do, but not a single person ACTUALLY knows the right answer. The only one who truly knows is God.

With all of this being said, stay positive... Stay radiant!
