Perspective

hey guys,

I saw this picture recently on twitter and it said:


"I am thankful for ....
The taxes I pay because it means that I am employed.
The clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have enough to eat
My shadow who watches me work because it means I am out in the sunshine
A lawn that has to be mowed, windows that have to be washed and gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home.
The spot I find at the far end of the parking lot because it means I am capable of walking
All the complaining I hear about our government because it means we have freedom of speech.
The lady behind me in church who sings off key because it means that I hear.
Te huge piles laundry and ironing because it means my loved ones are nearby
The alarm that goes off n the early morning hours because it means that I am alive."


I think I can speak for quite a few of us when I saw we don't always think like this and yes it's ok to have a good old moan sometimes but if you think a little different and change your perspective, the world is a whole new place.

I know my last two blog posts have been very short, but atleast it's something right? Haha.


See you soon

Choices and decision making

Hey guys,

Making choices is something we do every single day in our lives, it can be something as simple as tying our shoe laces, what to cook for dinner or something big like which college/university do I go to, which courses do  I take.

Every single choice you make matters even if you do not realise at the moment in time.

Making bigger choices in life is very scary for many people, but if your heart is set on it then I say go for it and once you've made that decision don't look back, make it work!

As well as the really big decisions in life I feel as if some people are pressured into doing things they may not feel comfortable with doing. If you do not want to don't, no one can force you to do anything, they have to have your consent to do it and if you do not want to, who is making you? The cards are in your hands.


"Don't let your emotions make your decisions"


Just a quick post for now, I'll catch you soon,

Lauren
