Moving on and moving up!
Today I found my first LJ. When I signed up for this one I had no idea what my old LJ was titled, or my username, or anything about it. But I remembered and I found it and what an eye opener it was.
I have changed.
I can't believe how much I've changed.
miss_peg <--- my original LJ.
I was at college - I was going through a lot of things, dealing with my past, hating my present and having no ideas/thoughts/plans/dreams for the future.
I started it almost 4 years ago - I was 17.
Now I am at university and I have let go of the majority of my past, I love my present (except being busy with essays, lol) and I have all sorts of thoughts and plans and dreams for the future. They're not clear, they're not set in stone - but they are little bits of hope, something I severely lacked when I originally joined LJ.
Reading about how I was feeling in the past was amazing, it gave me so much, knowing that I am not in the place I was at 17. I'm 21 and I'm happy.
You don't know how amazing it is to be able to say I'm happy.
Even in the four years since college I've had some big ups and downs - many that have changed me, made me the person I am today and as a long term consequence - have made me happy. I do regret many things in life and I know I shouldn't, but I do regret them. However, regardless of the regrets, I know I am who I am because of what has happened in the past. But the past is the past and I am finally glad to say that.
What was written on my old profile page wasn't true when it was written, back then it was simply words from a Delta Goodrem song.
"Here I am, this is me, what you get is what you see." - and now, it really is true.
For now
