The First Day -♥

Today is the first day of a new life. Someone once told me that to change, all one must do is "Decide its the time to change." I have honestly never given much thought to that phrase before now, but as a last resort I turn to it. If this is true, then human willpower, persistance, and dilligence are three very powerful things. I have been on the same road my entire life, fighting dragons and demons at every turn, claiming defeat more than victory. But I am eighteen years old, and I am at a HUGE fork in the road,. To the left, I can continue on as I have for 18 years. To the right, I can play "the game", meaning balance my life in a way in which everyonce can be happy to some degree,  and in the long run get what I eternally seek. In my mind, the choice is obvious. But staring down a path that looks nice and easy is a lot different than actually taking it. I like to think that maybe, just maybe if I am lucky..my willpower, persistance, and dilligence are far stronger than I know.
