I came across this picture today, and it really made me think.
Myself along with so many others have problems with confidence, and the way we see ourselves. No matter how many compliments your husbands, wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, family or friends give you, you just don't see yourself as anything more then a reflection in the mirror.
Confidence comes from within, you have to really dig deep and look past all your imperfections, and hardships and be confident in who you are, big, small, tan, white, black, etc.. you are beautiful to someone. You should always know that someone thinks you are one in a million, and there is always someone who thinks so highly of you, and only wishes that you could see that. We all are different, and we always want to compare ourselves with others, but the thing is, we are OUR OWN PERSON! You cannot change who you are, you may can change your appearances through surgery or what not, but your inside is where confidence hangs out. You have to have peace within before having peace outside.
As I am writing this, I am thinking about a lot of comments I have said about myself lately, "oh I am too fat" or "I cant do that because I wont feel comfortable" God knew I was saying these bad things about myself, so he put this picture in my path so I could realize I am beautiful in my own way, and I hope this also makes others realize the same thing!! Confidence is what makes you happy.
So Smile and embrace your body, and your happiness... You only have one body, so at least be happy with it. No matter big, small, or whatever it may be... you ARE YOU!!!!! <3
Today I decided to start a blog so that I could express myself in more ways then one. I love writing, although I may not be very good at it. It helps get some things off my chest. :)
My first blog is going to be on laughter and happiness.
I enjoy making people happy, I love every aspect of it, the smiles, the laughs, the tears of joy, etc.. with that being said, I also know that making everyone happy is not feasible. There are people who just do not want to be happy. You have to learn what type of people you want in your life at that point, people who will bring your spirits down or someone who will lift you up with happiness. Just know, that misery LOVES company... And you have to learn to look past them.
I to have to learn to look past them.
Everyone fights different battles day in and day out, and I wish there was a cure for certain diseases, or cancers, but I believe HAPPINESS and LAUGHTER are the best medicines you do NOT have to buy!! I believe with good faith and happiness you can achieve anything. I have been given a few diagnoses that made me question my faith and happiness, but I know that I have a few diseases that will never go away... but those diseases DO NOT HAVE ME!! As long as I keep my happiness high and my negative thoughts at bay I will achieve all of my goals, and I will succeed all expectations. You have to remember to believe in yourself... and to tell yourself YOU can do it. Always keep your happiness, and sense of humor, you never know when you may need to use it. ;)
I thought this e-card was pretty appropriate, I apologize for the language but its called sense of humor for a reason. :)
I hope you enjoyed my first blog, I enjoyed writing it and hopefully I make someone laugh or smile today. Remember life can always be worse, so live for the moment, and enjoy life by living in happiness, love, and laughter. <3
