Staying Afloat

Life has a way of testing us. Sometimes it can push us to the end of our patience.  It can be difficult to navigate on the right path when everything seems to be raining down on you. At times the aura or temptation of others can drift you on a different path entirely, a place where your heart doesn’t follow. You have to find the courage and wisdom to ask yourself where you are truly meant to go and follow it without fear. Always be true and honest with yourself  and listen to your heart. You will start to discover what aligns with your soul and it will help center you. Find out what anchors you, what keeps you focused on your goals and have you live in the now. 

It doesn’t matter how strong the storm is or how high the waves are. You are your own anchor. If you stay afloat and survive the storm, nothing will be able to weigh you down. 

Take A Deep Breath

One advice that I still hold close to my heart and daily life is, “if you don’t think you can go on another day, just focus on the next hour.”

If you can’t go on for the next hour, focus on the next few seconds and take a deep breath. It is something I have to remind myself of daily. Between the stress of life, work, and just trying to keep a social life it can get hectic and overwhelming.

If you are feeling stressed or down, please remember this.

You’re going to be okay.

Try and see through the cloud of negative of energy that is surrounding you. It’s going to get better. You are not alone. You are loved, always. It’s okay to feel like this. Your feelings are valid and do not have to be explained to others.

Remember that you’re not always going to feel like this.

Storms don’t last forever, just hold on awhile longer.

Finding Hope In The Dark

There will be bad days but always remember you can still find beauty in darkness. With every fall you take you can rise. With every change there is growth. With every hurt there is hope to be found. With every ending there is a new beginning. Don’t let the bad things that happen to you stop you from discovering the good in life. Sometimes we have to fall part in order to be whole.

Hold on to the good.

Aways believe that the best is yet to come.

Trust the process, be still.

We need the darkness to appreciate everything that shines.

Create Your Own Path With The Stars

Everything happens for a reason.

This is one the most used quote we hear in our lives but it is also one of the truest sayings. The universe will bring you what you need at the right time. Yet, sometimes faith needs a little push (more than we like to admit). Sometimes the universe doesn’t want you to sit back and wait for everything to happen.  At times we have to work towards the same path it is leading us to. Sometimes we have to create our own opportunities in life. We have to create our own moments. We have to create our own path. Sometimes we have to create our own path within the stars on our darkest nights. Your stars are out there. We have to slow down and connect the dots. 

Keep making your own path.

Never stop looking up.

Never stop arranging your stars. 

Turn them into your own constellation and light your way home.

 

Choose Wisely

Your attitude determines what type of day you will have.

90% is how you react and 10% is what happens to you. The small things in life should be stressed and worried about like they are now. The tire can be replaced. The ticket can be paid. The to do list will get done. The bill will get paid. 

Your life is great. You just have to allow it to be. 

People don’t make you upset, you allow the anger to manifest inside you. 

Life circumstances don’t upset you, you allow yourself to be upset.

You ultimately choose to worry, be angry, choose to criticize, and choose to be unhappy.

No one decides your attitude for the day but you.

Choose what type of day you wish to have wisely.

 

Be Lighting ⚡

Remember you have lighting deep within your soul. It will brighten your darkest nights and bring light to everything around you. Always let your voice be heard and never let the thunder within you be silent. Let the world see who you truly are and what you are made of.

You are are powerful, rare, and strong. You can take on anything that comes your way. Remember you are made of lighting, hard to forget and remembered by everyone.
