A Healthy Perspective when Dealing with Hardships

In my opinion, if you’ve been through any hardships in life, big or small, it was for a reason. Everything happens for a reason, regardless if it was your own doing or by someone else. So every time I start to feel bad for myself, I remember that God wouldn’t have lead me down this path if there wasn’t some kind of significance to it. If you’ve been hurt or let down before, it’s hard to have a positive attitude in times of doubt, but one thing to always remember is that the sun shines after every storm. Things will get better, maybe not always on your time frame expectations; but they will. And when they do you will look back to when you were down and out, and smile because you made it through. At that moment you will understand why you went through what you went through. God needed you to experience it so you would be ready for what he had waiting for you ahead.

A few words I live by are “God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers”.

Keep pushing!

Have you ever felt like you don't have a reason to keep going? Even though you can think of a million reasons why you should? Because I do. Even though I'm very blessed and have so many reasons to be happy. I still have those rough days that I just can't cope with anything. Days when I feel like I can't even get out of bed. Life is hard and it's okay to have rough days but you can't let those rough days become your life. You have to find the faith in yourself and keep pushing, because you can not let the devil win! The struggle is real but so is God, and he will not put you in anything you can't handle. Trust in him but also trust in yourself. And when you feel like you hit rock bottom just remember you can only go up from there!

The Reciprocity of Life

When you do good. Good comes to you. Why do bad when you can experience a different lifestyle that is nothing but happiness?  I wouldn't ever want any one to suffer the way I have these past couple of years.  But I wouldn't be where I am today If it wasn't for GOD. God is good all the time. Even when your world is falling apart, God is good. There is always a reason to smile, no matter how big or how small that reason may be there is always a reason. Every situation I have put myself in, I try to make the best of it, I always stop and tell myself "it could be worse", and those simple words immediately change my perspective of the situation. I will never put myself in a situation to make things worse because I have learned from my mistakes. It's easier said than done. Not everyone learns from their mistakes the first time around which does not make the people that do any better. Im a firm believer in different circumstances will equate to different outcomes.

I am forever thankful for everyone that accepts me for who I am. I appreciate every person who has looked past the mistakes I have made in life to see how far I have come and how far I will go. I am also thankful for everyone that doubted me, because they gave me a reason and motivation to push harder, to prove them wrong. I pray that they someday realize that sometimes faith is all you need, because I do.

Find something good in each day, and that makes me smile!
