I am

Sometimes we get so bogged down by life and everything we are so unsure of, we get lost.
There are times when you need to take a moment to stop and think about the things you are completely and entirely sure of.
Things that are irrevocably true.
Sometimes, they contradict each other. Sometimes they're made of made-up words only you know.
No matter what, they are you. and they will always be true.

My name is Tessa.

Each day i get to know myself more and i learn to accept the person i am and the people around me. slowly it becomes clearer as you go that somethings can be changed to affect the future you want or desire, but sometimes it's just not possible to alter the person you already are. the basic aspects of what makes you, you.
Bad habits are yours, not anyone elses. If you're not pointing your fingers and telling other people how to run their lives, bad habits or not, it's far less likely you'll be the kind of person who needs people telling you how to run yours.  innit?
Sticking a label on something doesnt mean it becomes what you've called it. It simply means you've stuck a label there.
