holidayyysss

Let's talk about social media. Let's talk about specifically, facebook. Facebook to me is one of the most important reminders of changing my life, for good. I am constantly reading update's of status' that continuely use profanity, plagued with sadness, and a "woe is me" attitude. WAKE UP PEOPLE. Life is in your hands- and is, and always will be what you make of it.

 

 I recently read a post that was complaining about the holidays, and how it is only good for family arguments. Now why would you let something negative ruin a holiday which has a basis of giving thanks. Give thanks that you have family- even if they don't get along! There is no one person in this world who isn't missing someone that they have lost- be it human or animal. There are people out there that have absolutely no one. Not by their own mistakes, but in the cards they were dealt. Holidays can become extremely stressful- but never forget that the holidays are a time of reflection, of self-renewal, and appreciation of everything we do have, and maybe even the things we have not.

 

I urge you- the next time you update your status, challenge yourself to write something positive. It may be harder than complaining, but you are building a better basis for inner peace each time you do it.
