You are Your own.

You walk into a room and there's hundreds of others all around. Do you know that there is no other person who is identical to you? Yes it's true! Not even your parents. You are your own. Own it. Parents fail to realize that raising a child does not mean they are going to think, behave, or have morals such as themselves. See, we live in a world, that's offers many different religions, races, morals, and values and that is what defines you, not your parents. How you become one with the world is what defines you. You see, growing up your parents are your foundation, but they are not your home, you are. In simpler context, you can teach someone how to walk but that doesn't mean they will always follow you. Young adults of today always take a stand for what you believe in, live the life you love. For me it has always been the next persons smile is more important than my own. And that my friends is a false aligation that I have come to realize. Only you can determine what brings you happiness, and that starts with owning who you are. Take pride in the things that make you most joyful, take pride in the skin your in  and don't let anyone take that away, because here again you own your happiness "you OWN you". With that being said I will continue with another blog here soon about "The Choice" HOLIDAYS for the adult child of divorce! Stay tuned and thank you for taking interest in us A.C.O.D.
