Christmas Eve and Christmas are the two days of the year that I don't deal with ANYTHING. And I really mean that, no drama, no problems, no bull, NOTHING. Everything can wait til these two days are over. Christmastime just brings me at a calm- I feel closer to God, to my family, and just enjoying everything around me. But today, yes today, 3:30AM on Christmas day, is just one of those days that don't start off well. Getting so worked up about such a little incident that happened makes me unhappy. So I've decided- live by what I said- don't deal with it, at least not today. With Christmas, I've been given some much to be thankful for. After shopping with my mom at Walmart, my mom&I donated some money to the Salvation Army. For the first time in a long while- I really got that warm, giving feeling. I know it sounds weird, but for everytime I smiled and said Merry Christmas to someone, I felt like I was passing on joy. No matter what I'm doing these two days, whether it be something considered 'stupid' or just having fun- I honestly have no words to describe this feeling. For all of my friends that went on Winter Retreat, I've heard so many stories. I wish I could've been there- to release and hear all those stories&pains. Emotions run wild and they get bottled up, even if you don't notice it. I'm proud of everyone that made the experience. And even for people like me, who didn't go to WR, it's a good time to release all of that pain and everything else before the new year. Although it's only been 3 hours into the day, I've been inspired by two people GREATLY today. "If anyone ever tells you you can't do anything, prove them wrong. They're just holding you back with words, and words don't mean anything to me." I thought about this for a long time, and I'm still thinking about it. It's true I try to reason with EVERYTHING sometimes. This is a little irrelevant, but you know how it's difficult to be COMPLETELY independent from everything, because then you'd just be, well, alone. Perhaps there is a way. This new quote that I find highly inspirational right now, I believe in. So for that, I thank you. Another thing is that I've learned is that through smiles- miracles come true. To inspire others- to instill joy within people- I really believe it's a talent. Even when I'm having a bad day, I just hope that I can make today a good day for someone else. A different quote from a second very inspirational person says, "Be confident in your skills; otherwise, you can't share that positive energy with others." Something- ANYTHING that you may do may bring happiness to someone else. Sometimes I lack confidence. I don't believe in myself as much as I wish I could or appear to. But I know in my heart- I want to make people happy, and really, I think I can. But I now know I can do an even better job with confidence. Thank you guys. Personally, I've been having a confusing and difficult couple weeks. I think everything is starting to settle down. But I think maybe I should really just wake up, sit in front of my desk with a blank sheet of paper, and write- just get it ALL out- my first thoughts, everything. Venting and ranting, everything else- it just doesn't seem to help sometimes. A while ago, I spoke with God. I believe that God will get me through this little rough patch I'm having. I know that confession and even just being able to release EVERYTHING is helpful. It sounds silly, but I think that everytime I speak with God or share a secret with Him, our bond grows stronger. Today is a day to enjoy with your family, friends, and loved ones. Today is a day where nothing else matters, so just smile&be happy. Enjoy the rest of the holiday season and the year, as a matter of fact. Take care, guys. Stay strong! |
