One day, I realized that most of the things I liked to do for fun were bad for me. Most of the people I hung out with, were not my real friends and I was not happy with my life.
I decided that I wanted to start doing things that were good for me and for the people around me. I also decided to stop letting people who don’t care about me, get close to me.
I no longer go to places I should not be going and I don’t mess with people who are doing things that aren’t good for me. It’s important to know what’s right for you and it’s important to know that not everyone is there for you.
It is better to be alone than in bad company; and a night at home with my family beats any club atmosphere in the world. Be good to yourself and surround yourself with people who want the best for you.
Have a great week!
