Hello Readers,
Have the courage to rise from the challenges of life like a phoenix from the flames or you’ll get lost in the ashes of despair, pain, and regret. The quality of your life is built on the quality of your decisions. You are the energy you attract towards yourself so always be careful about what you wish. Whether you are aware of that or not, everything you come up against is teaching you about that part within yourself which needs to develop. Listen carefully to your instincts because they are never wrong. It’s when people ignore what they are feeling that they later blame their instincts being wrong. These are excuses, not facts.
If you wish to excel and if you hope to soar, you must be prepared to work hard and make some sacrifices. Mediocrity is surrounded by crowds of people all behaving like sheep. Greatness is where the air gets thinner. You will have to choose wisely and do not ever run away from what you fear. Walk away from arguments that lead to anger and nowhere. Detach yourself from people who put you down and who are blind to the value of you. Distance yourself from anyone or anything which does not serve nor compliment you. To love unconditionally doesn’t mean that you must give everything. Every time you forgive someone for a serious wrongdoing, they may begin to love you a little more, but as time goes by, you will start loving them a little less because respect and trust is lost. On the very day when they seem to love you the most, you may not feel anything for them at all. You shouldn’t let history keep on repeating itself, but only you can stop the merry go round from being in perpetual motion. One of the most common signs of madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result and feeling utterly upset and resentful when things fail to go your way. Some friendships or associations are not meant to last for a multitude of reasons. There are occasions when in the long term it’s better for all concerned to never see one another again. Don’t worry when you walk away from drama, just be glad that you found the strength of character and the courage to stay out of the conflict and be at peace with your choices. The people with whom you associate with are a mirror of who you are, so choose your friends wisely. The more you walk away from things that promise to poison your soul, the happier you will be. In walking away you give yourself a proper chance to heal, grow and revitalise once again. Never question nor be willing to compromise yourself to satisfy the comfort of those living blindly by the false masks of life. If anything is trying to hold you back, give no attention to it. Get your hopes up, get your faith up, look up, and get ready to rise up from out of the darkness and look towards the sunlight. A step taken towards what you fear is a mile towards mastering it.
‘Every time you try and fail,
Every time your hope gets stuck in the deeps,
And you wonder just how you’d get through the sail,
Don’t forget that underneath your pain,
Is an anchor of great strength and fortitude
Keep digging until you find it…
And when you do,
rise’.
‘She wore her scars
as her best attire.
A stunning dress
made of hellfire’
Love and light, Linda and The Lulas xxx
