With Strength

Look back and be grateful you had the strength, the will, and the desire to keep on going and overcome shit. Slap yourself on the back for making it through. Life is literally a bitch sometimes, and the fact that you can make it through… kudos to YOU!

Look forward and understand that sometimes life is just about throwing roadblocks in your path, but you’ll deal with it as it gets here… and sometimes life will throw some sweetness your way. Enjoy it while it lasts. YOU just make the best of either situation.

Look around and appreciate the good in this world. Let it enhance the obvious unpleasantness that reality sometimes brings; it will be more palatable. YOUR perception and acceptance of how things are and choosing to see and strive for better will help you overcome the negativity that life can send your way.

Look within and find the BEST you have inside to put forward every day! Share yourself with the world to help influence others to do the same. YOU are in command of your ONE life; steer it wisely.

  1. I love your overall thought, but must take issue with this: …choosing to see and strive for better will help you overcome the negativity that life can send your way.

    Sometimes that “negatively” becomes overwhelming … and striving for better doesn’t help a whole lot. 🙁

    1. I totally get what you’re saying, tragic circumstances tend to overwhelm us and nothing feels like it will get better. This part relates more to the “acceptance of reality” as it is. Emotions need to be felt, for sure, but we have to realize when things are out of our control, rather than let our emotions rule us. Thanks for reading, Nan!
