I just have to point out one thing before getting into this....I only care about peoples opinions if those people play a mutually beneficial role in my life. So if you have something to say about my blog make sure you are important in my life or rather your opinion will make me a better person. Now thats out the way, lets get to it shall we.
I found myself in one of those conversations where you feel "God" has called you to teach types. A colleague of mine was going on and on about how shitty her life was. And me being blunt like a Samurai Sword couldn't help but blame her for her own pile of cow dung. I am a strong believer in the power of CHOICE...YES....everything is a CHOICE, from what you wore this morning to the number of zero's in your bank account, its all a CHOICE.
So playing teacher I quickly slapped her back to reality...people we need to stop playing victim and start living the life we want to live.
I for one made this decision a few years back when I realised that the world doesn't care about your level of happiness, its a jungle out there.
So get your head out the cow dung and take control of your life. The first real step to take is removing all the crap in your life, whether its people that continue to shower you with "lets kill her spirit" piss, the fat in your body that steadily plays with yourself esteem, that huge suitcase of bitterness and regrets or that job thats makes you NOT want to get up every morning. And guess what it really is that EASY! Dont even think for a second its not.
Take responsibility and stop complaining, we don't wanna hear it, hell you don't wanna hear it...and the reality is ...it wont change a dam thing! Im going to leave you with a profound yet one of the most honest statements I came across today from a very wise friend of mine;
Facing it is the first step—and first steps can never be skipped. Fearing it, avoiding it, and drowning it in alcohol, casual sex, partying, drugs, or other risky behavior only temporarily submerges it. Over time is takes more liquor, more dope, and more random sex to numb you from what you see in the mirror. Fun and pleasure are no substitutes for therapy and healing. One is a natural process the other is a terrible alternative that in the end you will pay for with your health, sanity, and self-respect—even the respect of others that love you.http://ramonsreality.blogspot.com/2011/01/tyler-perry-movies-enough-is-enough.html
I repeat everything in life is a CHOICE....get rid of the shit in YOUR life. CHOOSE LIFE! Its waiting on you!
you begin your post with a "hold in your reigns
ReplyDeletebefore commenting" then proceed to stick your head
way out there, leaving yourself wide open to argument
on many fronts. i will respect your first wishes
but say this: the things you have spoken seem to me
to need a lot more deeper thinking through on your part.
it's good to think through these sort of things, but
coming to an early conclusion/opinion kind of waters
down the whole thought process. it seems a good start
to a thought, but needs expounding. ;-)
