After thoughts

After thoughts

My first winter in England. It's not as bad as I thought it would be, but honestly, it could be better. Rather than go on about other places I've been to, I want to share pictures of the city I'm living in now. It has so much to offer. I also have to remind myself I am lucky and I am here for a purpose and even if the weather sucks I can’t just run away all the time.

Sometimes, if I'm in a particular state, I feel like I need to look elsewhere for salvation or answers. Still, I know I can figure out everything I need on my own. Some days if I spend too much time at home, I feel like I'm going crazy, but I learned a long time ago, it's all in your mind. It's always up to you. How you want to feel, who you want to be and what you want to do. All that energy is living inside of you. Your mind is a powerful place; whatever you think, that's what you are, who you are; so make sure it's a positive place. Some days can be hard, though. I get it. I am not perfect, but I try to focus on happy thoughts and plan things for myself to look forward to and be more present. Meditating and manifesting help. I even made a vision board to remind me why I’m here and what I have to look forward to.

A friend once told me, "Comparison is the thief of joy." I cannot tell you how hard that hit me. We spend so much time on social media looking at what others are doing, accomplishing or whatever but in the end -what does it matter? Most of that stuff is a bit staged or fake anyway and that's okay but it doesn't mean that your life is any less significant. Do not forget what truly matters. What are you going to do today that makes you happy?
