Everything Works

 
 
So as you can tell I have had plenty time to continue blogging at a steady pace. I never realized how much I have stored in my mind and how therapeutic is was to just write about it. Writing has always been something that I did, but only in my journals when I was a teenager. I guess when you get older you graduate from little notebooks to write in to blogging on the net. I have found that this life is beating me down every day. But I take a step forward and push past the difficulties. I wait for the opportunity of a new day. Yes, it hurts terribly, but I’d rather get beat down and pick myself up than never enjoy the fall. I do honestly believe that people enter our lives for a reason. That everyone who I meet, who has formed an imprint in our lives has something to teach us. Everything that happens to me is an experience, and because of that it can never be bad. It can only be good because it helps to mold the person that I am, and the person that I become. Hope is a big driving factor in my life. It makes me feel as though it just comes and goes, when in reality it is always there. Everyone hopes that there is a chance that something else will happen, you just need to have faith that it will.
Hope, deceitful as it is, serves at least to lead us to the end of our lives by an agreeable route.  ~François Duc de La Rochefoucauld
There is no person that was made to handle every punch that is thrown at them. We were made to get upset, sad, hurt, and tumble.  It is my experience that we aren’t supposed to be able to handle everything. I find that some days I do not want to do anything but lie in bed. I want to get away from everything and sleep it off.  Getting up on those days and fighting that feeling off is the best thing to do because it only makes me stronger. Having something push me out of bed, motivates me to start my day.  I have asked myself, “Have you ever met someone who has changed your life?”  Yes! And they make me realize that every thought I ever had about life and myself, has changed … the way I look at life and people and even breathe. It’s like that whole time I was hiding until that person came into my world and suddenly everything was different. They somehow made it possible to trust again. And show me that not everyone is going to stare me in the face and lie. But they helped me realize that not everyone is going to hurt me. Every single second brings a new beginning, every single hour embraces a new promise, when we dream; our dreams bring hope, and when we awaken; every day is what you choose to make it. So today, make the choice to be happy.

*Truth*Love*

I know I have not been blogging lately. Even when I was blogging I was not the best at keeping it up on a daily basis. I think on daily about my life and how things got the way that they are right now. I try to give myself advice on self worth, trust, love, and everything that comes in that package. So this is my conclusion on it all.
 
When you give more thought to what someone else thinks or says over what you believe and know to be true for you, you're abandoning your personal power. I believe in seeking advice from people in areas that I have limited know how, this habit has benefited me towards accomplishing particular goals. However, I still have to consider the consequences of taking their advice over what I may have originally considered to be the best thing for the situation. I will still be responsible for the outcome. Developing trust in your inner voice requires that you begin to develop better decision making skills. This requires that you begin to make small decisions and consider the outcome of the results on a regular basis. As you start a pattern of making small choices that lead to desired results, become mindful of the thought process that you engaged to come to the decision; trust yourself and you will learn to trust others.
 
It is easy for some people to feel frustrated when loving but not being loved in return. I feel empty once my love is not reciprocated because I am expecting other people to fill that emptiness. However, this is not how life works. I have learned that I should not depend on love from someone else. Instead, love should begin from within. Blessings come in different forms. People should not compare what they have with what others possess. Instead, appreciate the blessings. Everyone has his or her ups and downs. Everything happens for a reason. Most people have difficulty in letting go of the past. Accept everything that has happened, both the good and the bad. Everyone deserves a fresh start.
