It's Okay



At one point or another it'll hit you--the loss. Like a tidal wave, an avalanche, a tsunami, and you're back where you were four maybe ten years ago, yet you don't understand why. You wonder if you've found a trigger that has dug up those painful feelings of experience, or if you never truly worked through the grief you should have. But either of these--are they the truth or excuses?

Is it all in your head, a hinder to your present motivation and success? Or is it simply the answer that you're still grieving. For time does heal though for some it takes much longer to hurt less. To feel not as much, not as potent as when it occurred. To be able to breath without the emotional twist of a knife painfully in your chest. So give yourself time to recover, as it won't happen over night, nor have you healed your heart completely through these years and I'm here, alive and breathing to tell you
THAT IS ABSOLUTELY OKAY.

True Friends

Our lives are experiments. We try new things, go out and talk to strangers and hope that one day we won't be so alone, or alone in the sense of never connecting with at least one person. That the friends we have now, can you honestly say they are you're true friends? The someone to answer the phone at 2 am when your car won't start, who will pick you up when you're drunk, spend the day with you at a coffee shop or lounging in sweats and ratty shirts with movies in the background, talk with you and give their whole attention besides the occasional side glance to the movie or show in the background that you had originally put on to watch but instead talking is the go to because you each have so much to say and yet you'll listen graciously to the other person. The someone you connect with is your best friend, romantically or platonically--you're there for each other and you care. Now how many of you have true, real friends?

2020 We Can

Think of this--2020 is a new year but it's also a new decade.  This decade what will you do? Maybe in this decade you'll get married, have children, travel the world, reach the starting point that turns to a successful pedestal in your career and from there you continue with strength and motivation. This new year isn't just another, it's a wake up call. A wake up call, that's right--an alarm really--to what you ask though?  2020 is the year for change, real change. Not the hypocritical, internet shit but get out there volunteer, donate, foster animals, change your diet and lifestyle for your body and health but also the environment--did you know every second a cow is killed in a slaughterhouse? And trust me, however humane it is and yes beef and other meats are protein and vitamin packed, have you ever driven past those slaughterhouses? I'll tell you, on the way to the valley and city of Angels, from the north end of California--the smell is horrendou

To Change

We all go through phases and times of struggle, where we feel less than our best selves, when each day we hope, pray even that it'll be better than one before. But, there's a problem with that hope: Are you doing anything to change how you feel? Are you making your day go any different than the last? It's important to note that change happens when: 1.) We want to change for ourselves, not anyone else. 2.) We focus on ourselves, what we want, what we enjoy doing, what overall makes us happy. 3.) We live the life we want to live. Not the life anyone says you should be living or how, but your life for you. Yes, it sounds selfish, and at first it may seem that way. Saying no to people for the time spent you could get ahead on things you need to do, chores, even taking time for reflection, may actually improve your relationships with those around you, yourself and bring needed clarity. It's a process. There's no sugar coating the patience you'll need
