“One day she decided to gather up all the sad stories she told about her life and release them into a big bonfire. She sent the sparks and ash to the heavens where they were transformed with divine love. She declared the past complete and spread a blanket of love and amnesty over every morsel of her life. A cheer went up in the heavens and the angels rejoiced. The girl had found her way to her light. And with a giggle and a twirl, she set sail for new adventures.”
I know this is some hippy shit, but I've seen so much self destruction lately.
Life is too short and too beautiful to be wasted. I've spent the past year, past month, and every yesterdays working on myself. Becoming a better person than I was the day before, forgiving wrong doings, and trying to encourage others. I don't know why, as humans, we let ourselves destroy each other, when we should really be uplifting. Some of the best things I have learned on this journey for positivism, is you can not fully live in the present if you are still holding on to the past. Do yourself a favor, spend an hour looking at the beauty this world has to offer, whether it be a baby's laughter, your favorite music album with the volume cranked, or the moon and the stars, just observe. My favorite band says it perfectly "I marvel at the stars and feel my heart overflow..." I guarantee the beauty will change your aspect of your "problems" and on life. Free yourself from your past, you are not the person you were yesterday. Free yourself from negativity, it will hinder you from fully enjoying the positives in life. Just live life, and be.
