Believe

When was the last time you had the belief that you could do whatever you set your mind too?  When was the last time that you had hope built up inside of you that allowed you to move past those mountains that stand in your way?  I believe in you, I believe that you have a purpose for this life.  I know at times it may seem as if we do not, but let me assure you,  you do.  Many times we get down on ourselves and deplete our self worth, we diminish what we have worked so hard to attain.  We let go of the hope and confidence that we may have built up.  Once it is gone, it is extremely hard to regain.  But then again, I'm not telling you anything new.  But what I am going to tell you is that you are awesome.  You may not feel awesome, but you are.  You are a unique masterpiece that has been placed on this planet for a reason.  You may not be able to see that reason yet and you may even wonder if that reason will ever become clear, but it will in due time.  You have the strength to shine like never before.  YOU are the reason people get out of bed in the morning.  You are the reason that people smile, you are the reason that people show love.  You have so many things to be proud of, you may look around at your current situation and think that you do not but trust me on this one.  If someone has not told you in a while just how amazing you are, then here goes: YOU ARE AMAZING, YOU ARE AWESOME, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU SET YOUR MIND TOO.  Don't let anyone tell you anything different.  At the end of the day, you have the power to turn around any situation that you face and make it into a better one.  These things clearly do not happen over time, but any step in the right direction is a positive.  Don't be afraid to fail, we all fail.  But if you never try, then you will never live.  Some of you may be perfectly content where you are and that is OK but for those who wish to become more, take a step towards that goal you may have.  Don't give up on hope and the belief that you can become more.  Believe in yourself and show the world that yes you may have some baggage with you, but that baggage does not define who you are or who you will become.

For today,  Believe in yourself.  Believe that you can do more with your current situation.  Break out of the mold that has defined you up until now.  Make yourself better, take your chances in this life.  We never know when it is going to end, so if you don't take a chance at some point, you may never know what success feels like.  We are all going to feel some form of failure along the way, but do not let that failure stop you in your place.  Be strong enough to press on when the odds are stacked against you.  Be the strength that someone is looking for, be an example to this world that our circumstance is not going to break us.  Break free from those chains that bind you and set yourself free.  Believe that you can be who you want to be.  Show the world that we can break the mold of what society says and conquer all that stands in your way.  Give someone else the belief they have been looking for and together go and accomplish something great.  For everyone who reads my ramblings, I thank you.  Thank you for giving me the belief that people may actually get something out of these writings.  Thank you for giving me the strength to continue writing.

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...
