What we become...

What we live with we learn usually from a young age. What we learn we practice (daily).

What we practice, we become. What we become has consequences. Can you live with your choices and the consequences of your choices? Just saying. Just My Two Cents....

Kindess....

Treat others with kindness for you never know what burdens another may be carrying. We all go through tough times, but remember tough times never last ~ tough people do!!

Lately, I have started looking back at my life ~ through all of the choices I have made, the good as well as the bad. I often find myself reflecting on those choices and wonder if I handled my decisions the right way...As many of you know, this year has been filled with a lot of pain for me ~ so much so that I have often been left wondering how I was going to make it through yet another day.

There were many times I felt so weak and defeated I thought that I had in fact lost the battle ~ yet what stuck out most in my heart and mind is remembering the acts of kindness from others.

I have come to the realization that, it is because of those people whose genuine kindness and concern helped me through my tough times, I can now fully understand and appreciate how strong I really am and how I have evolved into the woman I now am!

The way you conduct yourself during the hard times will most likely determine your fate ~ will you handle it with grace and dignity or bitterness and hate? Life can deal some difficult and amazingly hard blows but there are beautiful lessons to be gained if you are willing to suffer though the pain to get to the beauty which life has to offer.

I do not take these words lightly because I personally know that it hurts like hell. It may seem like an eternity at the time but I can tell you without a doubt, it will not last forever. For me, I chose the path of kindness. I wish those who have tried to do harm to me - well. It has not been an easy pill to swallow, so I drink a lot of water (smile).

YES ~ you are going to make mistakes, we all do.

Always be kind to others for you alone have the power to help lift their spirits or break them. Which person will you be? Just some food for thought and as always, Just my Two Cents...

Just when...

Just as everything falls apart, it will eventually all "fall" together and you will understand why it all happened in the first place.

Fear and low self esteem can be real mind benders but you MUST have the foresight and the faith to know that even though you may not get over it, you will get though it.

When you are tired, wake up. If you are weak, become stronger! If you are lost make it so you can be found. When your fear is high ~ conquer it!

Just when you think all is lost, it will be found again! Keep the faith and keep your chin up! Just My Two Cents......
