Everyday is a battle with some kind monster. Time, space, your hot cup of Einstein's Bro and Bagels white chocolate mocha spilling all over your hand written notes on your first book or screen play, getting a ticket, etc. It gets better. Getting stressed over the little things ruin your day. Look at the positive. Your living and breathing. You have a place to sleep, eat, relax. Some people don't have any of these things. I realize everyday that my 'problems' are just so small compared to others. I've come close to being broke and without a home. I realize now what some of those people go through when misfortune hits them hard.
This morning I woke up late for class and I realized that so what if I'm late? I'm living and breathing and I'm alive. I'm slowly realizing that I'm putting myself in this box and I'm purposely trying to fight my way out when I don't need to. I'm not a victim who had some one put myself in this situation, I did this.
I stop. Breathe. Repeat. Then I open my eyes. A day at a time.
Oh my. This made me almost cry - and realise something! My month have been stressing and miserable, since that day you wrote this, 9th november, and now that I read this it made me really feel better! I don't need to stress about little things, which happens to everyone and are not as huge things as they could be. And guys are definitely not worth of beating myself and think stupid.. Just need to enjoy the little (or bigger) things that are worth it. Thank you! :D
ReplyDeleteYou have a great blog!
Sara,
ReplyDeleteYour Welcome:) I'm glad this post helped you, it made me realize just how much stress I was putting on things that were trivial to begin with. Just like the saying, "No use in crying over spilled milk." I think that as I'm growing up and getting older I'm learning these little life lessons that give away to the ability to live a life that isn't as chaotic as I originally thought it was.
Your blog is wonderful by the way :) I've always wanted to go to Finland, the pictures are pretty as well as the language.
