This is my first post and I would like some emotional support.
Basically, I spent my life chasing a dream that came to an end on Thursday afternoon. I've tried to change myself to fit into this box of acceptance and almost lost sight of who I was. Today, a message came to me and told me to GET UP! I listened. Now, I am up and ready to encourage others to do the same.
Don't let people try to change you. Be Yourself. Be Different.
Hey, why do you feel this way? Is there anything that recently happen in your life?
Yes, I regret it. But I'm willing to understand how it is making me a stronger person.
I agree, don't try and change who you are, because who you are is perfect. We all work on our stuff, works in progress. But trying to be something we are not is simply living a lie, and it's easier to remember the truth of things. Chasing a dream is wonderful in theory, and there is nothing wrong with having dreams, it's just that we have to also accept the reality of what that dream could actually be. Sometimes it's like trying to catch smoke and put it in a bottle. I like to look at my short term goals as just basic blueprints, and to always allow for the inevitable change that is going to happen. I have to be careful what I wish for so to speak, as it may not be what I had hoped for. Acceptance of self, good and bad is the kind of truth in life we learn to live with about ourselves and those in our lives. I'm lucky to be happiesher on most days... but I'll take that.
Be kind to yourself, and learn about all the great things you are, and build your dreams from there. As they say, enjoy the road of life, but also the side roads along the way can often be more fulfilling than we would expect.
Thank you. I am realizing my true purpose and it’s a great feeling.
It's taken me decades, and I'm still a work in progress... some days I just take a break and stop and smell the roses though.
Great reply faux and I completely get where you are coming from. x
As Benson sang' Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all'
I say build more dreams and that way you have chance one of them comes true!
Thank you. I will not let my dreams be stopped by one roadblock in life. I’m going to get up and fight for myself.
I am sorry for that place you had been in, and i am glad you listened to the message. I understand that for I have been there as well for long time, I hope i really left it . Thanks for sharing, it’s inspiring. Wish you a peaceful day
Yes! Problems can lead to new strength, given determination. We will be here for you, all the way!
Cheers, Midori
