Welcome back friends!!! I promised I would get back to blogging and that's exactly what I am doing! I want to start off by shouting out all of my new friends from the cruise. I've been talking about writing more and all of you have inspired me to do so. So here I am back in the mix. I had so much fun drinking, dancing, acting acting a fool with all of you. My favorite part about cruising is meeting all of you lovely people and gaining even more understanding of the world around me.
It's been awhile since I've written so I have two topics for all you sweetasses out there . Topic 1: act like you are supposed to be here.
I met this kid on this cruise who was hanging out with his cousins who were a bit older than him and were always hitting the club with all of us. He was a little hesitant to go up and start talking to all the females in the club and whatnot so I gave him some knowledge which I wanted to share with you all . We were talking about how to just be more comfortable in your own skin. I told him that even though I'm a little chubby and very very hairy haha that I feel that I'm the coolest dude in any room at any time. I was going up to all of the gorgeous gals on the boat (hey Taylor hey meg!!) and all these guys were looking at me like yo how is this happening haha. I told him I'm comfortable being me, I know my worth, I know that I am an amazing human, and I know that others recognize that. This isn't about being cocky and arrogant. This is about loving yourself . People that are timid in conversation, worried about what others think, or people that are just rude are normally hiding their own self consciousness. I challenge you all to love yourself. Love yourself harder than you've ever loved a significant other, a family member, a friend. Love yourself with a passion! By doing this , you will begin to see a change in your attitude . Once the change in attitude happens you will start to see how the world opens up to you . Grab the shit out of your life people... love yourself... make your life into whatever you want ... because you can oh shit yeah you can .. because you are that awesome! You are the coolest cat in the room!!!
This leads me into topic #2 Forgiving yourself
In order to truly love yourself , to have that beautiful attitude adjustment I spoke of earlier, we must forgive ourselves for our mistakes. There have been years of my life that I spent hating myself. I hated myself for a multitude of reasons. I hated myself for letting my health fall by the wayside and being a fat mope, I hated myself for obsessing over females that were nothing but vampires to my happiness, I hated myself for not making my parents proud. I just hated myself. It took many years for me to forgive myself. It's not something you can do overnight . It is a process . With luck, people will pop into your life and remind you that you are this special and amazing human which will help you realize it but that's not always the case . Sometimes it means sitting down, writing out everything you are unhappy with in your life and the reasons why that is the case. Then you have to be honest with yourself . This is the toughest part of the whole process. Stop blaming others for where you are in life , using the past as a crutch. You need to realize that everyday you take actions for good and for bad. Those actions add up and create your life. Pretty simple premise. So with that understood, what are you going to do? Are you going to let your past mistakes corrupt your future? Why? Why is it that we are so willing to forgive others actions but when it comes to forgiving ourselves it seems so daunting? That's because the effect it has on our life is so much greater . When you spend time in dark places like I have it becomes a downhill snowball effect that just keeps getting darker and darker. Ain't nobody wanna live that way. You need to make peace with your past mistakes and make a personal choice to grow from them instead of letting them continue to dictate your life. I challenge each of you to dig deep and find that thing that is holding you back from being awesome . That mistake from your past that continuously changes the way you move through life for the worse and forgive yourself . Choose to grow or choose to rot away , the choice is yours. Trust me though, I know how amazing you are, the world sees you as such a special individual... it's about time you feel that way about yourself ..
I love you all... another entry to come tomorrow
