It's worth it!

Life is a beautiful thing, but in living that life we encounter lots of things, both good and bad. I am a positive happy go lucky person, but I am very aware of life and all that life can put us through. My focus is to stay happy, uplift others and inspire others to believe in themselves, believe that all things are possible, and that they can control how they react to things. I am that person who loves to see everyone happy, and I worry about others.I know I cannot save the world But that doesn't stop me from wanting to. Sometimes I get overwhelmed with worry, holding the weight of the world on my shoulders and in my mind. It's kind of stressful, but then I know that God doesn't put on us more than we can bare. I pray my way through the worry, the stress and the thoughts of all that I would like to do, but me being only one person, only me how can I possibly accomplish all the things that are in my heart, my head and in my soul. My faith will allow me to do as much as I can, it will help me to make it as far as God has laid out my path and when things get tough I know I can always depend on him. It's just so hard to be strong, so hard to maintain the weight Of the world on my shoulders, so hard to keep it all together when it all seems like so much. Through it all I say it's worth it, it's worth every struggle, every challenge and all the worry in the world, if I can save not only my kids but to touch the lives of many. WHAT IS WORTH THE STRUGGLE FOR YOU?

What do you do, to get you through the storm?

Have you ever set goals and didn't reach them? Have you ever started something and didn't finish? Well it occasionally happens to us all. Never allow a temporary setback to keep you from reaching your dream. The devil is always busy and his goal is to throw us off path. Falling down, is a natural thing, many of us set our minds to do things and life gets in the way, causing us to stumble, fall, or come to a complete halt. That doesn't mean we can not get back to our lives, pick up where we left off and complete our goals. Whenever I hit a rough patch in life, I pray. I pray letting God know my problems, I pray that he gets me through, and I pray for the strength and courage to follow my course. Praying is a big part of my life,it helps me to stay connected, and to keep calm when the storms arise.Prayer is my connection with God. I learned a long time ago that prayer helps me to keep my connection with God, to get me through hard times, and to keep me at a level of sanity and calm. Everyone has their techniques on what they do to stay calm, Mine is through prayer, what is yours? Yoga, meditating? Reading, Exercise or what?

How I experience Joy

Life is short and over the years I have learned that you have to create your own happiness. It is a plus when you have someone who makes you happy, but even then, they will not make you happy all the time. I create my happiness, I do this by being mindful of how I react to things that can potentially make me unhappy. Life affects us all, there will be countless incidents and occasions that will alter our mood and our feelings but when we CHOOSE to be happy despite the situations is where we take back our power. I encounter things all the time that make me upset or unhappy, but I say to myself You can let this continue to make you miserable for the entire day, or you can say this too shall pass (I love this saying), and know that God has handled much worse situations in my life and brought me from the bottom to the top every time. You see you have to believe that you are in control of your emotions, you have to have faith that GOD is bigger than any Storm (Life situations) that comes your way. Choose to be happy, Choose to experience joy. Walk in Joy/ Not Chaos, VSJ~
