I am a lucky girl. I found a man who doesn't make me choose between him and my dreams and I don't make him choose between me and his dreams. We lift each other up and help make our individual dreams realities. We can have both our love and our passions. We do not put each other down for wanting more out of life than just each other. We realize that there is more to life than that and have chosen to walk hand-in-hand together through our life while experiencing what the other loves and wants to do with their life. I went through a very manipulative, controlling and mentally abusive relationship. He did not allow me to have an identity. He did not believe in my dreams. He wanted me to be whatever he wanted. And I submitted. Then I found Jeremy who wanted me to be whatever I wanted in life. He has helped my fire burn, not stifled it. He has set me free, not caged me. He has lifted me up, not chained me to the ground. Please do not give up your dreams because the person you are with is not supportive of you and only thinks of themselves. You should never give up yourself to make someone else happy. Follow your heart. Follow your goals. Find someone who you can walk with into battle of both of your goals and fight next to, even if that person is only you. #love #followyourdreams #dontgiveup #findapartner #notanegomaniac #dontchangeforanyone #beyourself
