Growing Up

Looking back on how I used to react is so beyond amazing to me. I can't believe I have grown so much in just a few short years. When I get in an argument (mostly work related), I know my limits and know how far I can be pushed until I just simply freak out. I know when to walk away and I find myself thinking about what to say before it comes out of my mouth. I really think it is a big step for me, personally. I used to say things that would hurt peoples feelings and not really think of the affect it would have on people. 

I also am proud of myself for standing up for what I believe is right. I used to be so scared of conflict and would avoid it at all costs. I know that if I believe in it, I should stand up for my thoughts and actions. On a day to day basis, I don't see myself as a "changed" person, but as I sit here and type I really see a strong young woman instead of a timid young girl. To say the least, I am proud of myself and wouldn't change a thing about me.
