Life is Like a Camera...

And crop out the people you don't like! ;)
"Life is like a camera..." is so true! So often, tho, we have a look at the situation we are in and decide that life is too hard, too abusive, too boring, too lonely ~ too many 'too's' to count.
It sometimes takes ALOT of courage to keep going. ALOT of faith to believe that it will get better.

I really feel for youth today, who find themselves in situations where they don't know who to talk to. Or maybe they have confided in someone they trust, just to be betrayed and now find themselves in a worse situation. Whatever your situation is, please know that life will get better; maybe not immediately, but one day, you will have control over your own life. The real question here is:

                   What are you going to do with it?

I've met so many people who are just surviving, wrapped up in childhood pain and depression over their past mistakes or the abuse of others. It makes me want to shake them and say, 'Wake up! Your life is slipping away before your very eyes! It's time to get over your past and start living for today!"
 
Like the camera, it's time to 'focus' on what is really important in your life, to remember all the good times, and learn from the 'negative' things. So you had a crappy childhood. Or an abusive spouse. A crazy-ass boss. A car accident. A house fire. It's time to move on.

Last of all, take another 'shot'. Get the help you need. You are important. Medication or counselling and start talking to people who have been where you are. Find a support system. A church. A seniors club. Join the LGBTQ+ community if that's your thing. But don't sit at home and wallow in your sadness. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. DO IT TODAY!

Email me or when I'm online, message me. I'd love to listen and help you in some way. Remember that today is just 24 hours, but your life is so much longer, bigger, stronger and more confident than you are today!

Let's Talk!
