Creating the Individual

15 Apr

Last year, when things seemed to be slowly falling apart for me, I wrote the word INDIVIDUAL on a pice of scrap cardboard. Then, I wasn’t quite sure how to dissect the word. Today, however, I woke up wanting to CREATE a part of myself…something…so, I found this in the back of my closet and I started to write. I realized that I saw the word for what I want it to mean to me today and I hope that seeing this will help you too.

In = 1) Be aware of surroundings, always. 2) Where you are and when is significant. 3) Evaluate relationships you are in, where you are comfortable, confinements and investments.
Indi(e) = independent/independence
Divid(e) = 1) separate from expectations of others; veer off and away if you have to in order to find you. 2) Prioritize your passions and parts
U = YOU
Visual = 1) SEE; use eyes; be more observant. 2) create charts, time tables and VISION boards to visualize short and long term goals

Some Interesting Charts: You Are Not Alone

Have You Reached Adulthood?

^^^Notice how between the ages of 18-25, nearly 60% of people are still unsure if they can be considered an adult. Even from 28-35, 30% are struggling with some aspect of their life to keep them from feeling independent, confident, successful and whatever else you consider you need to be “an adult”.

Loneliness and Emotional Distress

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

^^^Notice that the PEAK for loneliness is between the ages of 19-30. You are not alone in feeling alone. I know this may not provide complete relief but it should remind you that almost everybody around you, regardless of how they may seem on social media, are feeling this way and are struggling with the idea of loneliness. 

Stay strong, 

“You don’t own all the problems in the world”. Everybody struggles. Just know that you are not alone…hence the reason for this blog! If you want to share your personal struggles (to an extent) feel free to comment and start conversation!

Always,
