Sharing Soul

1

One thing that bugs me and has for the longest time is people who purposefully bring others down.

People who feel so inferior and "not good enough" that they feel the need to make others feel that same way, in hopes of an ego boost.

Look, bringing others down is in no way a 'cool' or good thing. It's probably the most childish and immature thing a person could do.

And I'm not saying having low self esteem is something to be ashamed of. I'm saying being a bully is.

This world isn't easy. Let's face it, it sucks sometimes. But I believe everything is a choice: what you eat for dinner, what you will wear to school, your happiness. You name it.

The way you live your life and how you respond to various situations in life is all up to you.

So why live life this way? Why let yourself live the way you do? There is so much more out there than just the situation you are in today. Time will go on and the season will change.

Why waste time forcing yourself into this miserable box known as depression? Why do that when you have a choice to be happy?

Now, I never said it was easy. No, it definitely isnt. It's been months and I'm still to this day working on my happiness and overall life in general.

It takes time and lots of effort on your part, but believe me when I say you have the strength and potential to change your path and start things fresh.

I guess what I'm saying is, you don't have to bully others to feel better about yourself.

If you want to feel better about yourself, take the time to learn to love yourself and treat yourself right.

Take the time to be kind to others and help people through the situations you have gone through.

Believe me, trying to stay positive and kind will give you so much more fulfillment than bullying ever could.

What consumes your mind will consume you.

Ever heard that saying before? Ever believed it? Well fun fact: it's true. I know because I've experienced it first hand, both during good and bad times.

If you fill your thoughts with negativity, obviously it's going to bring you down. Eventually, it can destroy you completely.

I remember when I used to do that. All I did was think terrible things, about myself, what I look like, what I am, where my life is going, if people even like me?

But all it did was pack me deeper and deeper into a dark pit I had formed on the depths of my mind.

Was it fun?

Absolutely not.

I wanted to get better, I truly did. But something held me back. At the same time, I didn't want to leave. That state of mind had become what was familiar to me.

I was scared to ask for help. I didn't want to turn to people because I was afraid I would be judged or they would make me feel bad for thinking the way I do.

the mind set up had adapted had become familiar to me. I didn't want to leave.

But I realized that I wanted to be happy. I was ready to let go of that mind set. I was ready to be happy, truly happy.

And it took everything in me, and countless attempts to be positive, but I finally managed to get to the point where I am now.

I'm mostly positive. When bad situations come my way, I know how to handle them.

Same thing can happen to all of you guys. Just remember, happiness isn't a place or a job or clothes, it's a choice you make.

It's a state of mind you develope when you finally realize you want to accept the amazing life you could have, and you find out how much potential you have.

All of you guys were placed here for a reason. It's not always clear, sometimes it may seem untrue. But we are all different, and those differences are what help us full in the blank of the skills and interests we don't have.

We all fit in this world like a puzzle. Each of us is different, but that's okay. We all have a place and without one, we wouldn't be complete.

Corny, I know.

But you get the picture.

You matter. You have people that care about you. And you are worthy of all the love and happiness in the world.

Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise, because like I said in the beginning, they are just out for an ego boost, a chance to make themselves feel better about themselves.

Don't sink to their level. And try not to let others' actions declare who you are as an individual.

You're strong, beautiful, and loved.

And I will try with everything in me to make sure each of you believe that.

That's all for now!

I'm always here for you guys and I care greatly about you all.

Stay strong beautifuls!

Dm me anytime :)
