I Believe in Creating Change and Living Life to the Fullest by Brittany Decker

I believe in living life to the fullest and creating change. We only have one chance, and by making the right choices, we could have the best life anyone could imagine. It's all up to the person living it. I say live in the moment and make everyday count because it could be your last. No one knows when their life is going to end, so it's better to make the best of everything you have and enjoy everything in life. Even when things are going so horrible you can hardly stand to face the world, remember things will always get better and tomorrow is a new day.

Now even if you have the best life possible, you're always going to have a bad day. Those things happen, you just can't let it get you down. I've had plenty of them, but I always remember that tomorrow is another day and things will get better. Just because something bad happens in a day, it doesn't mean your whole entire day is ruined. Just keep with the positives and make the best with the rest of the day. You'll be surprised with how things work out. And remember things are always changing, and it only gets better.

I also believe everything happens for a reason. Hard times make you stronger and you should learn from the mistakes you make. It's life giving us a lesson and by getting through it, we're learning from it and moving on. Life's always throwing crazy things at you, so expect it.

Making other people happy is like a thrill for me and I love the feeling. I love knowing that I made someone's day just by saying something as simple as, I like your haircut! or Wow, nice shirt! It's a very simple way to put a smile on someone's face and make their day better.

I think everyone has a reason for living. I think my purpose on this earth is to create change. I remember when I didn't care about anything but boys and lip gloss, but now things are different. As the years go by, I'm growing as a person and finding out who I really am. I'm changing into the person I've always wanted to be. I'll always have some immature moments, but who doesn't. I just love that I finally know how to be respectful and how making fun of others does nothing for you in the long run. Judging someone else when you know nothing about them doesn't make you a better person. It's the exact opposite in fact. I've had a hard past and I'm coping with it. I like to think of myself as living proof that your past doesn't determine anything about your future or who you'll become. It's up to you to decide what you want to be and where you want to go in life. If you want it, make it happen. I believe in creating change by being the best person you can be and living life to the fullest.
