just a little ramble

you know those days where you

think you have the worst life ever

and the world is out to get you?

whelp- today that was me

i was totally throwing myself a pity party

and feeling sorry for myself

i cried myself to sleep and i think i woke

up crying as if i didn't stop in my sleep

i just had a bad bad day and i was

milking it for all its worth

then out of no where i thought of a friend

who's life is way harder than mine

and when i say way- i mean way

she is doing things that i wouldn't be able to

do even if someone paid me a million dollars

she is a gem and probably the strongest person i know

and then i felt stupid

for being soo dramatic

sure- i'm going through a hard time

and i know its okay to be sad about my situation

because i am sad

..but..

i had to take a step back for a second and realize

that my life really is good

and i really am happy and so blessed

and sure sometimes things don't always go as

planned- but i know in the end it will all be okay

i will be okay

"everything will be okay in the end

if its not okay

its not the end"

so instead of focusing so much

on myself and my hardships

i decided i would focus more on her

and others in general

i wrote this friend of mine a little message

telling her i loved her and that

i was thinking about her

and you know what?

i feel better

i think people (myself included) can get so caught up

in our own issues that we forget about others

and become so self absorbed

and i dont know about you guys

but when i think about something and only

that one thing- it makes me more upset

because duh!- thats all you're thinking about

so what a better way to get over it

by having a little charity and thinking

of others right!?

just a thought

i heard a saying once that said-

if we all threw our problems in a pile

and saw everyone else's

we'd grab ours back

alright i'm done rambling

much love

xoxo
