The Things I Didn’t Know Were Changing Me
<p>I was looking through some of my old stuff today and stumbled on a bunch of interesting things I used to engage in while I was younger. As I sat there flipping through memories, one thought crossed my mind: "Wow.. I’ve really grown.”</p><p>It hit me in that quiet moment—growing in age is inevitable, but that’s just the surface. Real growth—maturity, intelligence, emotional awareness—that kind of growth? That’s a completely different ball game.</p><p><br/></p><p>You’ve probably heard the quote:</p><p>“Growth is painful, but necessary.”</p><p><br/></p><p>And yep, it's true. Growth doesn’t come dressed in comfort. It often shows up in tough lessons, awkward transitions, silent battles, and even heartbreak. It’s not an easy hurdle, but it is a necessary one.</p><p><br/></p><p>I’ve come to believe that growth is a personal journey. It’s not about who claps for you or who notices—it’s about "You improving You."</p><p>No applause required. Just intentional effort, honest reflection, and courage to face the messy parts of yourself.</p><p><br/></p><p>It’s something that shouldn’t be negotiated. Not for comfort. Not for approval. And definitely not because someone else doesn’t see your progress.</p><p>So, the next time life throws a challenge your way, or you look back and wonder if you’ve really changed, take a moment. Pause. Reflect. You might just surprise yourself.</p><p><br/></p><p>Growth isn’t loud. But it’s there. And when it finally catches you off guard—it’s beautiful.</p><p><br/></p><p>Thanks for reading</p><p><a class="tc-blue external-link external-link" href="https://twocents.space/insights/tag/alo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alo</a></p>
