Random Rambling

Jul 12, 2010

"You must dare to disassociate yourself from those who would delay your journey... Leave, depart, if not physically, then mentally. Go your own way, quietly, undramatically, and venture toward trueness at last." As I become older and realize that things don't change, people do, this quote I picked up makes more sense to me everyday. I think it's important to surround yourself with positive energy and vibes. As i sit here sleep deprived from our new bundle of joy, I feel a power, a sense of superiority (yes, i can't spell) over drama that people have in their life. I feel truely blessed to have a husband who supports every aspect about me- down to making sure I get my nails done to make me feel better about myself. I sometimes reflect back to when my weightloss journey began and when i was with my ex boyfriend- how he made me feel about myself, my low self esteem and my lack of motivation to make my life better. This reflection over the past few years has given me the opportnity to truely appreciate and respect who and what i have become. I am not perfect by any means but i just don't see why people tolerate such bull shit and drama in their life like i used too. I want to shake them and tell them- listen to me i have been there done that... life is too short and you are waisting your time with these negative people in your life. I am a strong believer if there is something about your life you don't like then do something about it. Nothing will change unless YOU change. A mind is a terrible thing to waste along with your time. I do regret a period of about 7 years of my life when i made myself the last priority along with my kid and made someone else my world. My regret is more on the sad and dissapointed aspect of it.  I have hower, used my experience as a learning tool for solid pure growth. People say to live life with no regrets... easier said then done. Regret is such a powerful word and one that should be used with caution. I believe you can have regret in your life as long as you use the energy from it in a positive and productive way- specifically towards growth and education for yourself. Anyway, i am rambling now but the quote i found really hit a spark. I think the bottom line is that life is way too short for such negativity and bull shit. If you surround yourself with positive supportive people you are much better off.
