Your Faith (in yourself)



There are days when you are faced not with compassion and understanding but, questioning and accusation. The people you love even, fail to grasp what you try to tell them. Now you may want to blame them, be angry but, have grace with yourself and with them. Because you know yourself best and if they won't listen, there's always someone else who will. 

As it is in these times where you want to succumb to the norm, to society's standards, to go against your faith and beliefs to make someone happy with who you are and what you do. But, that isn't the answer, it wasn't the first time you forced yourself into chaos nor were it the years you fell deeper into the depths, losing yourself in each passing day. And it is in this rebellion, to take a stand for what you are confident in that the signs will show. 

Flowers will bloom when the covers are drawn, the tears are soaked up and a positive note hums through the earth. Familiar numbers, a warm, exciting feeling fills your body; when your passion strikes the chord of notice or moves forward and you know then and there, in that moment, you are exactly where you should be, doing what you're meant to do. 

Have faith, believe, and be confident in yourself.

Say Yes & No

You should say yes, to the opportunities you believe in, the ideas that excite you, and people you cherish every moment with.  Don't spend your time uselessly, to dreading each ticking second for the happiness of someone you honestly don't have much care for, otherwise you wouldn't be so miserable. Be honest with yourself, and say no when needed.

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

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.
