Our biggest challenge in life is learning to trust in ourselves. Jadyn was unaware her decision to take a summer away from home would shape her destiny in its entirety. If only the joy it created would have lasted longer and not included some of the most painful times of her young life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSometimes the voices in our heads are righteous and then there are the ugly, shameful, unsettled thoughts we're embarrassed to admit originated within us. It's difficult to forgive people who've wronged us. It is more difficult to forgive ourselves for our own immoral actions. Even though we did them to stop an impending, emotional drowning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis time of a young woman's life is her \u003ci\u003eSeason of Indecision\u003c\/i\u003e and thankfully one that doesn't last a lifetime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrust in oneself comes from accepting we're all flawed and trying again after we fail.

Learning to balance pleasing oneself with pleasing others is vital. Accepting our own actions, leads us to the toughest judge of all, ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur life stories are of our own making, paintings we show the world.
