Healthy Mind, Healthy Body

"One moment I had been peaceful, expansive and present, thoroughly enjoying life; the next moment I was feeling deprived, crabby, and stressed. Nothing had changed except my thoughts, but that's where we live the majority of our lives."

I found this interesting, and also very true. Sometimes we get caught up in everyday life and wrapped up in our thoughts we forget there are other people around us.

We worry so much about ourselves and what we feel, and we lose sight of others' feelings. Put yourself in their shoes; they feel the same emotions that you feel, no matter how separate you think you are.

But also be wary of yourself. As stated above, nothing had changed except your thoughts, reinforcing the fact that you are your own worst enemy. Learning to control your emotions and keep a healthy mind will do wonders for your confidence, self-esteem, and physical health.

I will continue to strive on keeping my mind as healthy as possible, and to help those around me to do the same.

The Book of Fate

They say the Book of Fate is empty, because you write your own destiny. I'm discovering just how true that is, and my writing is getting better.

You are your own worst enemy; no matter how hard people try to bring you down, the only person who can actually pull you all the way to the concrete is you.

I will survive, because I choose to be who I am. I won't follow what society tells me I should want to be like. Or what my fellow peers tell me I should want.

I follow my own heart, and with it's blood I will write my own story.
