Help Others, Don't Harm

-

    I believe there is good in everyone. It just saddens me to see people use their struggles as an excuse to be mean to people. I realize people have different ways of coping, but being mean and hurting feelings isn't okay. 

Justifying this attitude by calling it being honest makes me sad. I've seen people have the excuse of using their respective star signs to justify mean attitudes; a sign on a magazine horoscope doesn't excuse being mean. Sometimes you need to keep your opinions to yourself to avoid hurting loved ones. Some may call that being sensitive, but I call that being a decent person. It is better to be happy than to be correct. 

Don't let anyone cut you down or make you feel bad about yourself; you don't have to put up with that. Some people express their insecurities to others to make them feel more powerful, which is unfortunate to know. 

There are some different ways to cope with struggles; talk to a trusted loved one. Or anyone that knows you and loves you. 

We can all do better.

Being Strong in a Chaotic World

We are often told by the world that we are weak. No matter what challenges you face, remember that you possess the strength to overcome them. You are enough, just as you are. Believe in yourself and the possibilities that await you. You have the power to create a life that you love and to be your own source of strength and joy. It’s okay to be scared and feel negative emotions, it means you are human. The world hasn’t gone soft, but it’s making expressing emotions more vital to physical and mental health. There is nothing weak about being vulnerable. I strongly disagree with the notion that showing emotions and vulnerability is a sign of weakness. Johnny Depp said this amazing quote about vulnerability, “People cry not because they’re weak, it’s because they’ve been strong for too long.”

Patience

-
I have lived in Arizona for about four months now and it has been a big change, but I know it was for my own good. It was a plan B after getting out of a toxic relationship. I don’t know what the next few months will bring, but I’m doing my best to be optimistic and patient. I have always been a believer that things happen for a reason and they do. Having patience is the best way to go. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it.

My 2023

-
My biggest lesson this year has been that life does not always go as planned. My plan for this year was to settle down and get married, but after realizing the toxic nature of the relationship, I left and started a new life in Arizona. As a result of my fear of the unknown, I found it difficult to take this step.  But with the support of close friends and my determination to create a better future for myself, I made the courageous decision to leave it all behind and start over. I discovered new things about myself and how capable I am to be successful in life. I was also inspired creatively and I discovered new hobbies.  I made new friends and made new connections. I can’t wait to see what 2024 will have in store. I will go into this new year with an open mind and heart.
