And then there are the times that we can just feel like nothing can stop us in the world, and we just explode with creativity, energy, peace, happiness....
The one common factor here is me, you. We can talk in our head about how we will move forward yet when it comes down to finally taking action, we fill ourselves with insecurities, with self doubting, with thoughts that tell us we are just a failure, we'll never amount to anything.
Or, we will fill our heads with thoughts like way to go baby!! You did it!!
We are our best friends, we are our worst enemy. We take ourselves down, we build ourselves up.
WE thrive on other people telling us how good we are, how accomplished we are, and then we draw within when people criticize or make fun of us, or try to keep us from accomplishing our dreams, our goals our anything.
Look past all of this. Look past it and take a deep look at you. Who are you? No matter what anyone thinks, you are a very special person that is filled with love, kindness, beauty, talent, special gifts that belong to you only.
Take time to say at least once a day, I love you. At yourself. YOU deserve to hear it, to know it, and to feel it. And you can let someone else hear it too.
Each of us is a very special person, we have needs, wants. We have passion, and are passionate about our bits of our lives that rev us up. One thing that I have learned from animals, birds, they live their lives without regrets. They don't look at yesterday and analyze it till it makes them sick.
My dogs (I'm up to 5, we have a new addition) never worry about tomorrow. I think the only thing they worry about is will I pet them, feed them, cuddle, talk to them, just hang out. They love me in the dog way, and you can see it.
So, be your best friend always, and let go, learn from your failures, your accomplishments, get up when you fall, keep on going. Smile, love, be grateful.
