Hello Readers,
People’s spending a lifetime worrying about the craziest and most ridiculous of things. They go to their graves worrying about stuff that never actually happens. What does it matter about who likes you or who doesn’t? All that matters is that you like yourself. Worrying about the opinions of others will shorten your lifespan and cause you needless grief, and all for what?
Nothing will change if you believe your suffering is more important than what change has to offer you. Rejoice in small things and they will continue to grow. Don’t wait for a crisis to realise what matters the most. Put yourself first, right now because right now is all we have. Tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. Here today, gone tomorrow, in a blink of an eye. We are born with nothing and we can take nothing with us when we die and depart this life. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and so the wheel of life keeps turning. Material possessions account for nothing because all that is important cannot be purchased with money and love is more powerful than anything.
Often the most important progress cannot be seen and time is the single most important resource that we have. Every precious moment we lose is never coming back. If your goals are not big enough to scare you, they are not important enough to get you motivated. Being alive doesn’t mean that much on it’s own, how you live is more important. Create the best for yourself and live the life that suits your personality. Always remember that you are living for yourself, not for other people.
You can’t live their life and they can’t live yours. Few things are more important than learning and expanding your mind. Self improvement, knowledge and higher learning will always serve you well and transport you to the next level of being and existence. You are never alone when you are reading a book. The only things that really matter will stay with you. Once you make a decision to let certain things go, it’s always interesting to see what stays.
Never be a prisoner of your past. What happened was a lesson, not a life sentence. When you least expect it, something better and usually very different comes along. Happiness is not always about getting what you want, but enjoying what you have. Everyone can make you happy. Some do it by staying in your life whilst others do it by leaving. Nothing nor no one lasts forever. What goes up must come down because that is the natural way of things.
Every struggle you have had in this life had shaped you into the person you are today, so be thankful and proud of who you are and never allow anyone to pull you down because they have not had the privilege of walking in your shoes. Never have, never will. They probably wouldn’t manage to even get to the end of the street before giving up walking a few steps further. You have survived because you have learned to be strong, resourceful and resilient and can manage to make something out of nothing. Those who wait to be rescued don’t always learn the most valuable lessons needed to get by and survive the best and worst of storms.
Start today by making room for all the important stuff and disregard everything else because you have seriously outgrown it all. Go forward slowly because life is not a race and you have nothing to prove.
Love and light,
Linda and The Lulas
