My heart is heavy for this world and the tragedy that we often live in. When will we get back to being human?
Truthfully, I am scared for this world. But how is that a way to live? What can we do to make a change?
There is a reason we are all here. A purpose for everyone on this Earth. If we aren’t bettering ourselves, than what are we doing? In a world with so much tragedy it is so important for us to find who we are. The best version of ourselves possible. Someone we are proud to be. Someone to inspire others to be.
love.
Everything in the world begins and ends with love. It is the most powerful thing in the universe. If we don’t have love, we don’t have anything. This starts within you. We need to learn to love ourselves first. If you don’t love you, how can you love another? Let’s start with this. There is and can only be one YOU. Ever. That makes you so special, and no one else has that power. There is a constant feeling and pressure that we put on ourselves to be perfect. But what for? If you are trying, that right there..is all that matters. No one will ever be perfect. We can’t expect ourselves to be, nor another person. We are all just human, and we’re doing the best we can. Love always wins.
staying humble.
Being humble means many different things. Most importantly, controlling judgement. There is enough negativity in the world, what would be the purpose of adding to it? Remember that golden rule we learned as a kid? Treat others as you want to be treated? I think its safe to say that the way we judge others, shows a depiction of the way we judge ourselves as well. Whether it be through jealousy…fear…caring what the other thinks of us, trying to make an impression. Ultimately, the way we respect others, is the way we are respecting ourselves. When we are judging, we are not being the best version we can be. Showing someone respect, even when we feel we don’t have to, is a sure sign of good character and integrity. And I can assure you, this will make you much happier down the line.
learn.
You are never done learning. Learning from mistakes, trauma, people, your journey. There is something to take away from every situation. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Every moment in our lives leads us to the next, and one thing happened differently, it would alter our entire path. There is something to be said for this. Every moment matters. If its a mistake, learn what not to do the next time around. Just because you have made a mistake, doesn’t make you a bad person. If it’s trauma.. learn how to cope with or from it, the right way. Realize that you have gotten through it, and you will again. Because you’re strong. If it’s a person, they were placed in your life for a reason. To show you what you deserve…how to stand up for yourself. To teach you how to forgive. My mom once told me, you are learning from the day you are born until the day you die. And I believe this to be true.
you are human.
We are all just human. We are all doing the best we can. At the surface, it may appear that we are completely different. And in some ways, we are. But we are all searching for the same things. No matter who, we are all dealing with something. No one has the perfect life. So just be nice. It is so easy! We need to show more compassion. Show more positivity. Show more respect. Show each other how to heal. And maybe, just maybe the world could become a better place.
