Blog Post #1: Six Word Memoir

Some girl time with the universe 

It wasn't until four years ago that I understood my perceptions were stronger than my circumstances.  Growing up, I would patiently wait for something in my life to trigger negative thinking. It was almost routine.  Even during circumstances when life was going smoothy, relationships and friendships at their prime, and money would be stable, in the back of my head I would constantly dwell on these thoughts: "What is the catch? When is this situation going to crash and burn?"

These negative thoughts, and negative interpretations of a simple circumstance would consume me to the point where self-worth was not existent. I was drowning in constant feeling that everyone felt the way about me the same way I felt about myself. If i feel this way, everyone else must feel this way.  That was my definition of "truth."

Four years later, I have come to realize that my perceptions do not always intertwine with what some call "reality," and other people's perceptions do not form my own "reality."

This realization has guided me into a path of spiritual healing and continuing acceptance of my existence.  Within my existence, I now truly enjoy being weird, preternatural, and out there.  Along with self-realization, changing my mindset of "why is this happening to me?" to "what is this teaching me?" has been transformational and rejuvenating.

I may live a life other's do not understand, but there is no need to dwell on the negative. There is no need to allow exhausting toxicity to steal my energy (energy I could be constructively putting back into the universe).

Positivity attracts positivity, and that is enticing!

Besides, we are here for a good time not a long time.
