Choose to be happy

forgiven

to forgive another person does not mean you will forget what happened or that the person is not responsible for what he did or that you need to bring him back into your life. To forgive another doesn’t even need to mean the other person knows you’ve forgiven him or her. To forgive another simply means you no longer allow another person’s actions or words to cause you resentment, anger and pain. To forgive means you acknowledge that while you would have preferred the other person act or speak differently, you accept that person just as he is.

to forgive yourself does not mean that you should forget what you did or said that might have injured another or caused yourself distress. To forgive yourself doesn’t mean you aren’t responsible for what you did or said. To forgive yourself simply means you realize that you might have done something differently if you had known how. Forgiving yourself means you recognize that you didn’t know how to do something differently and realize you have learned by your mistake. As someone once said, experience is what we get right after we need it. To forgive yourself means you are finally willing to accept yourself just as you were at the time you made the mistake you’ve been holding over your head.

think happy thoughts <3

Happy thoughts are part of our lives. In an average day it is estimated that we have around 60,000 thoughts. Have you ever wondered how many of these thoughts are happy thoughts? If you think happy thoughts we create happy perceptions!  we create a beautiful aura of light around ourselves….Jealous, angry and fearful thoughts and feelings take us away from our own path… our own purpose. But a straight path doesn´t admit compromises. This negative thoughts strip us of our power and ability to act effectively. If we think fearful thoughts we become afraid and act defensively. This pushes away other people and other possibilities away from us. And so we become lonelier and more afraid.
The route to a happier life is through happy thoughts. Not just because they make you feel better immediately… but because happier thoughts give you a stronger and more stable foundation to your life. You are in control rather than being bounced around by life.Little things are responsible for our happiness. We call them little things because they happen to us every day and we tent to let them pass unnoticed. But there´s where the happy thoughts responsible for out happiness are coming from. When we smile or when someone smiles to us fills our hearts with happiness. It´s so easy to smile… and because of that we think it´s not so important. We came to think that only the things we strugle for are important. That´s soooo wrong. We are happy holding the loved one in our arms, we are happy when we feel the smell of rain or the smell of the forest, first snow makes us happy, chocolate, dinnner with family… Here´s where the happiness is. A new house takes time to become a home, a new house is new only untill it becomes a home… And the real happiness is not in the new house but in the home it becomes. A new house is a big step in our lives… but it´s an empty accomplishment as long as it doesn´t become a home, part from out legacy. Going home makes us happy, entering a new house not that much. The happiness is in the meaning of the things, not in the things themselves.

Its agood day, already?

Woke up late today to the rain beading down my window and thunder shaking my walls. relaxing? Yes I love the sounds of a summer storm. I wanted to stay in bed and stay there forever. The mario brothers theme song played over and over again as my alarm, but the cheery up beat nintendo song played for agood 20 min before actually rolling out of my cozy flannel sheets. I jumped up took a quick look in my long mirror and thought” what a hot midwest mess,” rubbed my eyes, and took along deep breath to begin my eventful day. I looked at the clock, 4:27 am, grabbed my gym bag and headed out to weather the storm! The 40 min drive to the gym was one of many but for some reason I was so tired I could hardly keep my eyes open. The rain struck my window so hard that I could barely see the road. The occasional lightening strike brightened the sky and the road became clearer. opened the front door to the gym dried my shoes and did my usual stretch to prepare me for my exciting workout. No, I was not ready to begin this”exciting work out” but forbes myself to walk back to the mats. The white board that explained the morning WOD was not looking good. it listed : 10 min of snatches, 10 min d.b snatch and 5 sprints , and two 500 rowing sprints. Yikes!! I was about to get my butt woooped! After the wod was complete I was exhausted! But I realized what a great way to start my day! I walked to the front and enjoyed myself a tasty protein shake! Now, siting in the locker room dressed in black about to attend paul mitchell academy for the day! First, a quick stop at coffee corning for my morning espresso and last in the tanning bed to get my uv on for the day!!
