Turn Your Wounds Into Strength
It’s Okay to feel
You don’t have to hide your feelings and emotions from the world. You shouldn’t have to hide them from yourself either. Being yourself means feeling every emotion that you may be feeling on the inside. Sometimes you have to find a quiet place and take the time to listen to your heart. Don’t keep your emotions bottled inside until you explode. Find a healthier method to release what you feel. Start by noticing when your tensed up or if your heart rate in increasing. Take time for yourself. Find your center. It can be easier to keep things inside and not releasing them into the world. Show yourself the same peace and love you show others around you. Be kind to yourself.
Be the warmth
Be the light for someone. Be the warmth when all they feel is the cold. Be the person who gives a smile to someone. Be the person who takes an extra few seconds out their day to help a stranger. Tell your parents how much you love them. Tell your friend’s how much you appreciate them. Ultimately, be the kindness want to see in the world. It only takes one person to make that difference. We are all going through our own journeys in life and we all get caught up with the here and now. We are all trying to keep or find the light in our own lives.
Why not shine a light through someone’s else’s journey?
Your Story
None of our stories are the same. Some have happier endings while others end in darkness. No matter what the story consists of, write your story. When you need to, finish the chapter and start another.
We have the ability to scratch out things that done belong and instead add joy. Surround yourself with characters that will help you in your journey of self discovery.
Try to embrace and accept the chapters of uncertainty. No matter what the outcome is, embrace it. Write your story. Be raw and honest as possible. Write it with passion and love. Let it be the best story you’ve ever written. 💜
A new year
Life hasn’t been easy this year for any of us. It has challenged us all in different ways. The days go by but yet time has seemed to stop. So many questions can start to fill up in your head and unfortunately we may never know the answers. Do not let your faith diminish in these trying times. Keep the hope for the future alive. At times this can be a truly difficult task but as long as you keep trying that is all that matters. This year has proven that family and true friends will help us keep going. Lean on them when needed. Pray when it becomes difficult to stand.
Please stay safe today and everyday!
and
I truly wish you all a wonderful and safe New Year!
Being true
Simply be you. Be who you really are. That seems like the easiest way to live life. Follow your heart even if you have doubts. Quiet your mind and listen to what your heart is telling you. Be a little weird and don’t think about what others may think of you. Love yourself in every being, every inch of your skin. Stay true to your values and let it guide you. Life is about finding peace and accepting who you are. So be kind to yourself, even in your weakest of moments. Love yourself the way you love others, you need it too.
