Alone
I actually like doing most things on my own. Admittedly, I am an only child. Yes, I have a bunch of cousins, but for the most part, I have always spent time alone reading, writing, and doing whatever I want. Recently, on a trip, my friends were preoccupied with other, and I decided to venture to the out. I got to see so much and explore without hassle.

Letting go.
One of the most selfish things you can do is let go. My mother always told me “self-preservation is the law of nature.” This means you have to do everything within your power to survive. Many times this means letting go of the things that are hurting us. This can be loved ones, friends, jobs, and places. Your right to survive and will to thrive is predicated on our ability to let go. You cannot grow if you do ever let go of the things that cause you pain and grief. I know it is hard to do that because those same things you need to let go are tied…
