The thing about advice, dear ones, is that it is always easier to give than to make happen for yourself. And while your MatchGirl has fought and clawed for what she needs in her life, she often wonders if it is really enough. Could she have been tougher? Could she have said no louder? Could she have gotten more had she just asked?
I think maybe.
So, gentle readers, I present to you a challenge.
To ask for something that you want. To say no to something that you simply do not want to do. To be tough and hold your tears in the face of adversity.
At the end of the day, no matter how wide and full of hugs your support system is, you are the one who can fix what's wrong with your life. You are the one who can make things better for you. Sure, you might need a helping hand or a shoulder to lean on. But you are the one who has to make the big decisions and face the hard choices.
You are the one who gets to decide what direction your life will go in.
So stand up.
And fight for it.
