I've come to the conclusion that I should start doing blog post at least once every day. It's been a while since I've done a post because I've been putting it off way to much and if I kept doing that, I would never get anywhere with this blog. I really like blogging, but sometimes my procrastination gets in the way and that is something I have to work on when it comes to blogging. Especially blogging. Usually it's not knowing what to talk about that stops me from making any post, but I now know, that if I want to get anywhere with this, I have to keep posting. I have to keep going. I can't give up. Even if it requires me to sit on my computer for hours with a blank screen in front of me, that's okay. And I am okay with this. Mainly because blogging has provided me with a lot. It allows me to talk about the things I want to talk about. It allows me to say things that I might not normally talk about in person. It allows me to connect to people who share similar views an interests. It allows me to help other people who might be in need of advise. It's a way of expressing myself that I feel fits with my personality very well. It allows me to create something from my soul. It's something I love. And I am very thankful for it.
I think people should be more thankful for the things they have. Try to imagine what your life would be like if you didn't have any of the things you have now. It would be a heck of a lot different. Isn't it funny how Thanksgiving and Black Friday, the two most opposite days, are right next to each other? A day where you're suppose to be thankful and appreciative of what you have is right next to the day day where huge crowds of people will stomp and topple over other people just to get bagfuls of things what they want. I don't think being thankful should be just dedicated to one day. It should be everyday. When you see the injuries and deaths from Black Friday, it really shows that people aren't all that thankful for what they have. They would rather trample over other people just to make themselves happier with cheaper toys. It shows that Thanksgiving has just become a day where people look more forward to the food than anything else. To me, that's not being thankful at all.
"Appreciate more, expect less." Is the mind set that I like to have. When you start trying to expect things to happen, or when you ask for so much from someone or something, your happiness starts going down the drain. It's because of that 'want' that you have for something, it makes you vulnerable. Vulnerable in the sense where, if you didn't get what you wanted so badly, or if something didn't go the way you expected it, you're gonna end up being very disappointed and possibly to the extremes of being angry and forceful on others. Even if it doesn't seam like you have a lot, or maybe it seams like you have absolutely nothing, to someone else out there, your 'nothing' is sure heck of a lot of 'something' to someone else. Just the fact that you are born into this world and have a chance to live it out, and make your life the way you want it to be, I think is something that everyone should be thankful for. Take some time and write down a list of everything you're thankful for in your life right now and everyday when you wake up and before you go to bed, keep adding to that list. Once you start to find more things to be appreciative for, you'll start to feel how happier you get, because you'll start to realize that you do have a lot more in your life than what you gave yourself credit for.
Be thankful and appreciative for your life.
(Note to self: Don't give up on blogging)
