33/365

Here's something shocking to start off the week:

You are who you choose to hang around. If you are around bad people, you will eventually turn into a bad person. If you hang with good people, then you will be a better person. It's a matter of adjusting to your habitat. 

It's hard to acknowledge that thought sometimes, until we are realizing that we have changed as people. For example, if I hang around a lot of people who curse, then I will curse. I've noticed before that I've begun cursing more with certain people. I notice a lot of things about me change around certain people. When I start to notice these kind of things, I realize that I have to make adjustments. 

Sometimes this means I have to break friendships, or back off of close friendships because those people affect me negatively. I read on Pinterest that "what you allow is what will continue." Sometimes, you have to ask yourself if who you are now is who you want to be tomorrow...

catch you later,
