To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone, and a funny bone. ❤
Everyday I smile and act like nothing’s wrong. It’s called putting everything aside, and simply being strong. ♥
“Life is messy, it’s painful, it’s tiring, but that is only the bad. In the good parts of life it is funny, beautiful, smile inducing, inspiring, it’s happy. We have to get through the bad to savor each taste of the good. We have to keep trying, even when we just want to give up. We have to be the backup generator in our lives when the lights stop working and we find ourselves in the dark.”
Lord,
You are my strength. With you, there’s nothing to fear. Hold me tight in your embrace, so I can over come the trials I face.
In Jesus name, Amen ✝ ♥
“Once you truly believe everything happens for a reason, you begin to see the bigger picture. Every pain, struggle, and negative event will always earn you something, whether it be wisdom, good luck for the future to balance out the negative, or bring you closer to someone or many someones. Just believe.”
When it comes to..
Looks: No one stays pretty forever. We all get old, we all have babies, and our bodies change. Looks don’t define a person nor make them who they are. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and what someone else considers to be beautiful you might not. While a person may be beautiful on the outside they may be miserable and nasty on the inside.
Holding a Grudge: People change, people make mistakes. You can’t change a person, nor can you change what has happened in the past. Hating someone for a mistake that they made just puts YOU in the wrong. Move on in your life, let things go. It’s not worth fixating on something that you cannot change anymore and that has already happened. We all make mistakes, but it has no effect on us what other people do or have done.
Money: Money isn’t everything, and money can’t buy happiness. You appreciate the finer things in life more if you have worked for it, rather than getting it all handed to you.
Relationships: In a relationship a person has to think about not only themselves but the other person as well. A relationship is not all about giving and expecting something back in return. Sometimes you give to the other person because you love them and appreciate them, while the only thing you need back in return is for them to love you and appreciate you as well.
Life Obstacles: Everything happens for a reason, and most of the time we don’t understand the reason but we know that it was for the best of us. Nobodies life is perfect, if everyone was perfect there would be no point in living on this earth. We are given obstacles so that we can learn from them and so that they can make us even stronger.
Letting Go: People come into our lives for a reason, and when they have fulfilled that reason they walk out of our lives. Relationships come and go, and not everyone ends up with the person that they thought would be their soulmate. People get old, and people die, but we never forget that those people have taught us the greatest life lessons ever and have shaped us into who we are. Always remember, that letting go of something or someone that you are so attached to is hard, but trying to keep whats not meant to be is even harder.
“GOD made you a promise that you wont have to face life alone…for when you grow weak in your struggles, HIS STRENGTH will prevail and not your own.”
“I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I’ve bought a big bat. I’m all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!”
—Dr. Seuss
“Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain, teardrops and laughter, pleasure and pain. Just remember, there was never a cloud that the sun couldn’t shine through.”
“Often we stand at life’s crossroads & view what we think is the end. But God has a much bigger vision & He tells us, “Relax my child, it’s only a bend..”
“I believe the ability to think is blessed. If you can think about a situation, you can deal with it. The big struggle is to keep your head clear enough to think.”
—Richard Pryor
“Sometimes God has to break us to make us. It’s just a bend, it’s not the end. We’re all like glow sticks, no matter how much we’re bent and broken our light still shines.”
