I find it so incredibly amazing how the littlest things can inspire you to better yourself in the most positive light. Perhaps it's a movie, or a piece of art, a song, a person that you meet. Things happen for a reason and if you can't get it out of your head, maybe it's just supposed to stay there.
This week has been a tough one for me. Unlike myself, I've been sulking in self-pity and frustration. I've had a difficult time trying to stay positive through a tough time with my family, trying to heal my broken relationship, financial stress, seeking some sort of spiritual guidance, looking everywhere but right in front of my face for something to make me smile...
Epiphany: life is beautiful and for a short while, I get to live in this wonderful place filled with people that do care. Why not follow my dreams? There is nothing that can stop me from persuing what I love. Each doubt is challenged by a stronger solution. Today, I can dance. I can love. I can learn something new. I can discover a piece of my soul that I didn't know existed. I can go wherever I want; it's just up to me to get back on the right path.
The pheonix, one of the most beautiful of mystical creatures is born from it's own ashes. The grass rots into the ground in the fall, but in the spring, it is freshly awakened, gleaming with the brightest, most beautiful green yet. The tinyest bits of inspiration can get you back on the right track. Open up your eyes to what's in front of you. It takes failing to succeed. Deep breath. Everything is going to be ok.
