One Day At A Time

In the past week, it’s been one emotion after another. I’m struggling an invisible line of being happy moving on and feeling sad because how long I held on.

Each day I wake up reminding myself to think positive. My new morning mantra is:

“I’m thankful for waking up to experience another day despite anything that is going on in the world. Thank you. I should make the most of this day and the possibilities ahead.” 

I have to take control of my energy to maintain a positive attitude.

I think big changes help distract your focus on something that takes charge of your attention so that you’re not sitting wallowing in the sadness. I’ve gone back and forth with chopping my hair off since I can never keep it different. Finally, I sat down in my best friend’s chair and let her cut it all off without being so indecisive about if I should or not.

“A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life.”

Even being on a high of a new haircut, I still can’t forget about what the reality is. I know I must deal with the issues, or they will just grow into something bigger if I hold them in letting the emotions grow even stronger. I’m still on the path of figuring out what’s best for me at the moment.

I don’t want to wake up each morning with an angry heart. I must forgive and try to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It’s just not in my nature to hold in that type of negativity and toxic emotions. Life is meant to be happy. I can only strive to become the person I’m meant to be in my own personal way and time.

I’ll cherish every moment of this journey no matter how low the lows may feel because I know one day I’ll back stronger than before.
