Love...

There are many four letter words in any language, but love can be the strongest of them all.  I know that other four letter words can consist of CAN'T OR HATE...  But love can trump them all...  When you say that you love something have you ever really given it a thought as to what that word truly means?  When you love something, you are willing to go through any length for it.  For instance I love my wife and children, I love my parents and family and friends.  I would go to the ends of the earth for them, I would travel across the ocean and back in just a canoe for them if it meant that they would have everything that they needed.  I would jump through the biggest fire that the world has ever seen just to see them happy.  Now with that being said, I know that me traveling across the ocean in a canoe won't bring them happiness, really it would make them worry more but in using that as an example to show that love knows no bounds.  Love can get you through anything that you face.  Even if you are sitting there today and wondering what is next for you, and are feeling down about where you are in life, it takes someone to say that they love you and or to show you love to make things worth it again.  Everyone wants to feel loved, everyone wants to feel like they are wanted by others.  That is just a basic human emotion that many of us do not get expressed on a daily basis.  If you are one of those individuals that doesn't hear it often, then I love you.  I love you for who you are, for who you can become.  I love the dreams you have for bettering yourself.  I love the things that make YOU YOU!  YOU have the love inside of yourself that can shine forever, you can make it out of whatever you are facing.  You have the strength to be who you were called to be.  You are better than where you may be now.  You are a unique individual that can change the world.  Do not be scared of not being loved, you are loved.

For today, tell someone you love them.  Let them know that your love is real and that you want to instill in them the love and hope that you can have.  If you brighten up someone's day, in return your day will be brighter.  "I want you to see that you are rich poetry, an artist unique messy masterpiece"- Worthwhile.  Be the love and the change that the world needs.  Show the hopelessness that you are not going to bow down to it, show it that love can be the spark that can set new and wonderful events in your life.  Be the strength for others that you wish you had.  If you show that you can be strong with whatever you are facing, then you grow at the same time.  If your experience can help someone out of the one that they are currently in, then that my friend shows that the struggle is worth it.  Love someone, love something.  Be the you you dream about, be the one that can show the world that love can conquer all.

From the Outside

Have you ever heard the phrase: "from the outside everything may look fine", or some other variation.  Many times I feel that people only see what they want to on the outside and not get to know the person you really are.  I know that times I really feel judged and like an outsider but once you get to know me your opinion may change.  However in today's society it is much easier to keep to yourself and not be put in situations where people may get to know you.  A lot of times when I am around certain groups of people, I immediately feel like I am being judged as the weird person or the quiet one.  Many times I have been told that I am too quite and for me that is a defense that I set up for myself.  I often times struggle with small talk and will just end up saying something really awkward...  It happens for often than not, even with people that I know.  Lord knows I hate it when that happens, I tend to think about it the rest of the day and kick...

Be A Man

Many times I wonder what I can write about that would be uplifting to someone who battles the same things that I do.  A lot of times I want to repeat what I have already written and it is tough coming up with something new to say.  I feel like a lot of times we always hear "oh be a man" or "You'll be fine".  But a lot of times it is tougher than expected to do what others give you advice about.  I find that mental health in individuals who has anxiety and depression is important to me and I don't want you to just "be a man" or "you'll be ok", I truly want you to be ok with who you are and what this journey has taught you.  I was recently trying to explain what anxiety was to me and I found it tough.  I found it tough to express what exactly it is that I feel on a given day.  It was a struggle to explain the emotions that I feel when I have entered into a public place or am put into a situation where I know that I have to face my demo...

Believing is Seeing

"I'll give you everything that I've got left, follow you down and give you my last breath".  ~ Gideon. Many times I struggle with self worth and thinking that I am not up to anyone's standards.  Recently an opportunity has presented itself to me and I can't seem to get out of my own way.  I feel as if I am not good enough to do this new challenge, I feel like I can't live up to the expectation that has been set forth.  I seem myself as less than everyone and that is a serious struggle for me and really is the cause of most of my depression and anxieties.  I often times when in a group setting, think that people are looking at me like I am weird or something to that effect.  I feel as if people see me in a different light than who I truly am.  Once you get to know me, I promise it is worth your time :).  I am an introvert who doesn't like crowds or speaking to new people, but lately I have been trying to push past those barriers.  I recentl...
