Write Your Own Story

       "Life's like a movie, write your own ending. Keep believing. Keep pretending." -The Muppets   I saw a clip of the Muppets movie come up on my social media feed, and the song that was sung just warmed my heart. Life is like a movie, and we are the writers of the events that go on in our movie. I also like thinking of life as a storybook, and we are the authors. We are on the adventure of a lifetime and we are the protagonist; think of all the amazing heroes we've seen in books and movies. That's you in your life, you are the hero of your story. Don't let the antagonists of your life get you down.  Don't let anyone tell you to stop dreaming.

See Your Worth

  Don't ever let anyone tell you that you don't have any worth, because you do. We all have worth and it's our job to see that. The world is already a dark place and we don't need to add more darkness to the world by tearing one another down. If we can hate someone for no reason, then we can love someone for no reason. It's our job to see the beauty in others and see the best in them. Looking for the best in people can show greater results than looking for the worst; there really isn't a good point in that.    In hard times, lift someone up, not tear them down. Help your loved one see the beauty they possess. Family and friends are supposed to be on your side, your support system, etc. Love everyone and be kind.

Learning what Matters Most

      The most important things in life are the ones that benefit you in the long run: the people, events, etc. Part of being human is dwelling on things that seem important at the time. I catch myself falling into that all the time, and it's something I'm working on. Albeit, it's something we're all working on. Sometimes experiences are given to us to help us figure out the things that really matter in life. There are some things that are subjective and don't have anything to do with us, and sometimes they're experiences we don't need right now; that's something I'm always trying to remind myself.    As I mentioned in my previous post, surround yourself with good quality people, and I stand by that when I speak of things that matter. Be around people who make you happy and uplifted. It's not worth being around people who make you feel bad about yourself and who cut you down. I've never understood people who did that.  This summer has taught
