How Are You Living ?

Sometimes it’s hard to smile, I will be the first to admit, I am not a perfect person. Life happens, things change, people come into your life and others leave. Sometimes, you feel like you’re on top of the world only to realize your rollercoaster is starting to go down. I’ve been hurt and heartbroken by people who were important in my life, but I have had some amazing moments also. But, we have to keep going because there are more things ahead for us to reach, we can’t stay in the past.

I’m telling you this today, as a reminder that it’s okay to be down and sad and hurt, but don’t forget to pick yourself back up. And don’t do it with pride or acting as if you have a perfect life because reality is, you’re not perfect. We all know it, but can we admit it? Now, don’t take that in a wrong way, but we know it’s the truth. On this earth, nothing will ever reach the level of perfect. That’s why life is about being changed and experiencing new things, not being stuck in old ways. It’s about going forward and moving towards a better you and a better life.

So I leave you with this thought...

We all start new chapters in life, some people from our previous chapter will transfer over into our new one, and some people won’t and that’s okay. We have to be ready for what is to come. So, here’s the thing...how about you? Where are you going next? Maybe it’s working on yourself and your pride. It’s okay to admit that you are suffering and need help. Maybe you’re chasing the wrong things in life like: money, fame and perfection..Have you thought about what that will even get you, will it really fulfill what you want, or is that just temporary before you want something else. Remember the grass isn’t always greener on the other side, envy is not a good friend. Maybe you’re in denial and you keep holding onto the past,... you are ruining your future by doing that. Regardless of your age, there’s something out there for you to do next.

I know you might be thinking, what should I know about life and how to live. If we are honest, I don’t know much because I have much more to experience. But what I do know is that what I tell you is true, I promise you, if you step back to ask yourself what’s going on with your life right now, it will be a reality check. What you do and what you want can change you as a person.

So ask yourself, “who am I”, “did I love someone today”, “am I kind”, “am I being bitter or prideful”

What’s important is not what you look like but how you act and who you are, your character is what counts.
