Finding peace from within

Before I begin, this is not a rant post. It is simply a reminder for our friends and family or wider community to accept the decisions we make. Sometimes we may come up with ideas, discuss our future plans out of excitement to friends. Some will support you, others may laugh or make negative comments. We might even hear the oh knew you wouldn’t go through with it line. That’s okay, let them have their say because we may post pone or decline certain things due to priorities of life. I myself have been wanting to travel the world or doing something that requires saving money, but I know it’s not always easy to organise these things. However I’m working on that so I can start to enjoy the life I want to create, for myself.

Be wise with who you share these details with. It’s easy to talk about things and then feel let down by sharp comments. One thing that I have noticed is the pressing need for others to a. judge b. being nosey c. Voicing their negative opinion. Now I’m not one to bite back , sometimes I’ll stay silent. So I’m using my outlet to create a safe place for my fellow followers, reader and viewers. Please, I advise you to be kind. To your friends, neighbours, colleagues or even someone you’re chatting to. You may laugh at their expense because you think that it’s okay to poke fun at them, but like a rabbit once said on Bambi :

“if you don’t have anything nice to say, then you shouldn’t say it at all.”

Honestly, it cost nothing to be nice. We live in a modern society where we are educated, informed and have the resources to share our gratitude, support others and spread kind words.

I have been blessed to have a selected number of friends I trust to love me unconditionally. However, the others I still consider friend(s) perhaps are not the first point of contact for this reason. So chose your circle wisely. We have to understand whom we can confined in.

Our soul sisters, basically understand us on a spiritual level. Perhaps our long time friends who’ve been through the good and bad times. Even new friends we make can become the best of friends. It’ about learning WHO we can trust in, WHEN to talk about personal things, are they in the right head space to listen? WHY, understanding our own feelings is not always easy so we may want to ask someone what they think. First you should write these emotions down and let yourself flow into the universe before putting it out there. I am writing this to help anyone out there who has felt out of place. I’ve been there. Be kind, you don’t know who has had a bad day, a nasty breakup, their family or pet passed on, or they lost their job. Check on your friends, say hi to someone walking passed, smile to people.

Remember practice self care too. Taking care of yourself is equally as important. Showing yourself love can help to radiate that to others.

Here’s a little post from last weekend. I spent it with a few good friends and it reminded me of how blessed I am to have people who love me. Always remind yourself of those who do care when you’re in moments of dispair. It’s okay to reel down but remember you have people who care. Whoever you are, never feel too important to be kind. Please send love to others. Life is too short.

Much love x
