I'm not who I use to be….
First realization of today, January 1st 2015. I have changed drastically! I went out on the road and drove out for hours. The best way to start my year. My car, the road, Mother nature, God, all of us, just driving, singing, talking, and thinking. I was headed to visit a long time friend of mine. It was good to see a familiar face. A face that has known me for fifteen years, but hasn't seen me in about three years. Extremely grateful for our conversation, we both realized so much. As most old time friends do when they catch up, we truly realized how we have grown up. Time just flew by…literally. After the visit, my trip back was different. By different I realized how much I still have to do. How time is just flying and I cannot waste time. I began to think about ... All of the crap I need to cut out of my life in order for me to be better. There are so many distractions, and with all the technology it may be a challenge to stay focused. I've never been a feen for instagram or twitter, but I must admit, I am on Facebook way more than I need to be. I NEED to have more self control and instead of being on Facebook, do more research on the things that will make me better as an actor. Who's casting what? I gotta get my ish together, because I'm not getting any younger. And I've never been the type of person to pat myself in the back for past accomplishments. I always need to be moving, progressing, what's next? I'll be there! Let's go! A trip of self realization. A trip of self evaluation. I know what I need to do. Do you? DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO DO FOR 2015? Well how about you do it. You…. Me…. Let's go on this amazing journey of getting it done! 2015 is not the year of laziness, but of self motivation. The year that when your body tells you no, you tell it to shut up, get up, and go! The year your mind wants to whisper that negative well what if it doesn't, you tell it yeah but what if it does… The year of hope, the year that even when those negative moments happen, where you get kicked so hard, you still dust that ish off and find another alternative. I began to think about… How the world is starting to wake up. How issues that have been affecting us for generations are coming to the light, like never before. I'm proud that people are becoming more aware of the truth. And for those of you that are still sleeping (even after y'all water bucket challenges) wake up! If you just follow without doing your research, I pray for you. Don't believe everything you're told. I began to think about… My blessings… (this was a long list) My failures… (tried not to dwell on them too much) What I need to change… (physically, spiritually, mentally) The faded relationships & friendships. (People come & go and it's okay to let go). I began to think about… So many things beyond what the normal person thinks about. I've always been called weird and today it finally hit me, that I really am. My Name is Dahiana Torres and I'm weird. And in this moment, I must admit, that I'm okay with the fact. I began to think… That I need to stop thinking so much. Stop analyzing, Stop assuming… Thinking too much hurts. I thought about all of these things. I mean it was a long ride there & a long ride back. 2014 was good, but 2015 will be even better! 2015 will be the year of execution. You'll see-- Dahiana Torres Signing off! P.S. HAPPY NEW YEAR I MEAN THAT WITH ALL MY HEART! XOXO
