One thing I’ve learned, was to be mentally strong. My dad would always tell me. “You gotta be tough!”. It wasn’t until I lost him that I realized, he wasn’t talking about physical.
He’d lecture me on trying to fit in; on following the crowd. At first, I’d debate him, and at the time, I’d do the opposite. Now, I’m so happy that he fought back on this mentality. It pushed me to be independent. I see so things in my own perspective.
I know, now, that of course everything that happens to us, effects us! But it’s really up to you on the level of effectiveness. Be better, do better. Just because you come from a certain place, or raised a certain way, it’s not an excuse. As adults and with time, wisdom and growing, we have the power to create our own path..
So, stop with the excuses,”be tough “and go on to follow the light within. Your true authentic self; no matter who that may be! If your unhappy with the people you attract, then you may be putting up a front.
There’s no such thing as problems, just solutions… at least this is the way I think.

I’ve been working extremely hard on becoming the best person I can be, and I don’t intend on stopping or ever looking back.

I hate to hear it, “you live in a fantasy world.” Simply because of my expectations, my dreams, my longings. You know what, I happen to prefer this fantasy world of mine.

Whenever I feel something is not working in my favor, I try to remind myself that everything is happening for me. Whether it’s for a lesson learned or hard work paid off. I must remind myself to have faith in the journey. We must keep trying to make each day count. And when ever you feel like life is testing you, take a time out and reflect on what this situation is trying to teach you. Never be defeated.

Advice from an 80 year old man
1. Have a firm handshake.
2. Look people in the eye.
3. Sing in the shower.
4. Own a great stereo system.
5. If in a fight, hit first and hit hard.
6. Keep secrets.
7. Never give up on anybody. Miracles happen everyday.
8. Always accept an outstretched hand.
9. Be brave. Even if you’re not, pretend to be. No one can tell the difference.
10. Whistle.
11. Avoid sarcastic remarks.
12. Choose your life’s mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90 per cent of all your happiness or misery.
13. Make it a habit to do nice things for people who will never find out.
14. Lend only those books you never care to see again.
15. Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all that they have.
16. When playing games with children, let them win.
17. Give people a second chance, but not a third.
18. Be romantic.
19. Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.
20. Loosen up. Relax. Except for rare life-and-death matters, nothing is as important as it first seems.
21. Don’t allow the phone to interrupt important moments. It’s there for our convenience, not the caller’s.
22. Be a good loser.
23. Be a good winner.
24. Think twice before burdening a friend with a secret.
25. When someone hugs you, let them be the first to let go.

29. Don’t burn bridges. You’ll be surprised how many times you have to cross the same river.

31. Be bold and courageous. When you look back on life, you’ll regret the things you didn’t do more than the ones you did.
32. Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them.
33. Remember no one makes it alone. Have a grateful heart and be quick to acknowledge those who helped you.
34. Take charge of your attitude. Don’t let someone else choose it for you.
35. Visit friends and relatives when they are in hospital; you need only stay a few minutes.
36. Begin each day with some of your favourite music.

I sometimes catch myself praying so intensely for random people. Tonight, for the first time, I realized I was praying for myself too.
