Brutal Truths

Brutal truths are unpleasantly accurate and incisive facts. Sometimes, the hardest truths lead to the most significant growth. As you know, life is completely unpredictable. Have you ever thought about these brutal truths? * Your obsession with finding happiness can prevent you from attaining it. Happiness is always present in your life. You just need to look for it.

Rethink

I started my day with a devotional, some coffee, and watching some reels. People’s creativity always amazes me. I love watching videos about travel, silly animals, clips from singing shows and TV shows, and anything else that catches my eyes. Then there are videos that make you think a little deeper.

Life Problems

While life can be so good, we all experience problems. The trick is to not let any one problem get too big or consume you too much. Here are a few things that can seem like big problems but are all problems that are manageable. 1. Someone criticizes you or someone is mean to you. You cannot please everyone you meet. Rather than dwell on the criticism, use it to not only teach you about yourself, learn from it. Promise yourself you will never treat someone the way you were treated. 2. You’re unhealthy. It’s easy to eat fast food. […]
