"I didn't change, I just found myself." goodlifequotes.com
It took me 22 years of my life to be in love with my life. I never had it easy (I still sometimes do not in my life) but I know what to do when life throws me curve balls.
When I started college, I thought it would be a piece of cake; however, these last three years have been so many emotions. I cannot put into words. I was emotionally abuse, I had to take a year off school, and another semester off school. I work three jobs. My father broke his elbow in a car crash, I had to drive him around in the summer of 2015. Don't get me wrong, I love helping my dad out with his job and being there for him. My amazing mom was always helping me. My sister got engage to her wonderful fiancé. A lot of amazing things happen to my family; however, the Karamols have had a hectic three years.
These last three years have been one of the most eye opening time in my life since I think if some of the things that did not happen to me, I would not be where I am now.
I always hated the saying, "Everything happens for a reason." I am slowly beginning to realize that quote has some meaning to it. I realized if certain things did not happen when they did. I might not be where I am now, or even in Ashland University.
If I was not emotionally abused, would I still be in Vincennes?
If I never took my semester off, would I have become friends with some amazing people at my workplace, Columbus State, or bonded with my parents as much as I did?
Would I have been a nanny for our family friend's daughter for a year?
Most of all, what if I did not apply to Ashland in April 2015, would I be where I am now?
I cannot answer any of those questions since it did not happen that way.
But what I can tell you right now about my life... That I am in love right now with everything, even if I do have bad days.
I have so many amazing people in my life to get me through. They promise me everything will be fine.
Thanks to everyone in my life! Those who check up on me throughout the year, the ones to make sure I was okay when I was not, and knowing that some days I just needed a good hug and cry.
My friends who check up on me when I was so depressed that I did not know how I was gonna get through and how I felt about myself. You all made sure to say everything will work out.
My parents, sister, and David, thanks for always being there for me and making me laugh when I need it. Thanks for making sure I am fine. Allowing me to pursuit my degree in Ashland, even though, I have had to withdraw from school three times. You guys are the reason I continue on when things get bad or stressful, since I know I can turn to you.
Thanks to my old classmates and friends for reading my articles and saying so many sweet things about them. I do not think you guys realize that you are the people who made me who I am today.
