(…Told y’all it was coming…)

Lately I have been dealing with a lot of emotions which isn’t very easy especially when, because of circumstances, we have to deal with this  huge pool of different emotions by yourself. I’m not going to go into details as to what these emotions are or how I’m coping. Instead what I want to share with you guys is that we must really appreciate everything in our lives –great or small – because every single detail in the grand plan of our lives serve to make us the individual that we are today, yesterday and always. I guess what I am trying to say is something that we hear so often but can only appreciated when we ourselves have the AHA! Moment, take nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing in this life for granted. Every event, every person is a blessing in disguise – It’s up to us to make these things work in our favour. Every event, every person moulds and shapes us into the individual that we are – It’s up to us to decide whether we let it build us up or tear us down. The reason we have values, the reason we have opinions, the very reason we know right from wrong is because  someone else or some other occurrence and how we perceive these things.

Don’t be too quick to knock what I’m saying. Think about it now…

The reason why people say sex before marriage is a sin is because they have read it in the bible and believe the word. The reason people say NO to domestic violence is because they have either seen someone suffer to the point of death in such a situation or because society has taught them that DV is unacceptable. But here’s the other side, some women stay in violent relationships in fear that they have no one to run to, nowhere to go. WHY? Because of a lack of emotional support from family and friends has made her that way or because she has no confidence because someone along her life’s journey made her feel less of a person, less of a beauty-full person that she is. Maybe someone at some point made her feel bad about herself, and she took it to heart. Kinda like the Self-Fulfilling Prophecy (if in doubt Google it).

Which brings me to my next point, it is very important to have family support, well not just family but genuine support at all is a human requisite because face it, we can’t do this on our own. It is just not humanly possible. We may like to think we can, but we really can’t. Hence the reason we have restaurants, doctors, Laundromats, husbands, wives, etc and the reason why there isn’t just one being on earth. There’s a whole lot of us, cause we really all need each other for one reason or another, at one point or another. So we have friends and haters for a darn good reason people. Friends keep us going with their genuine love and support. And the haters? They help us build the success and excellence chain. It may rub you the wrong way sometimes, and tears may fall but guess what? While their busy hating, all you need to do is to keep giving your best, keep doing you and do it better.

Once again, this is totally random. The random posts are my favourite to write and read. I am always inspired. : 0 )

Oh and another thing before I end, I think one of the most important things we can ever learn when living a life full of success, happiness and fulfilment  is that we must appreciate other on our way up because they might be the very person’s we meet on our way down.
