"Whatever is good for your soul --- do that."
-Unknown
One of the most important things that I have learned is to do all things with the most amount of love as possible. In order to achieve a true sense of joy or peace, I have realized it depends on me, and my attitude towards life.
As I continue to grow and learn through my experiences, I am realizing more and more that true happiness has to come from within. Each of us has been given gifts to guide us to an unmatchable happiness. However, with life and its distractions, it is easy to forget the feeling of peace.
"My only intention for myself, is to remain true. True to my personal peace."
I have chosen to remain at a personal peace, through creating and learning. I truly believe we have been given all of the pieces we need to be at peace. Each of us knows our assets, but are quick to shine light on our faults. However, if we were to focus our attention on the things that bring true joy, love, or hope to our lives, greater success will be found.
Our attitudes control the outcome of our situations. Most of us have been introduced to the "glass half full" versus the "glass half empty" scenario. Simply put, focusing on what we have instead of what we lack, allows us to make the best of any situation. Accepting the circumstances that we have been given is the first step to loving the life we live.
Once we focus our energy on our assets, instead of our faults, we are able to see our true selves. Realizing that a perfect God has created us and designed us to fulfill a purpose for him, allows us to feel an undeniable love and acceptance. Relying on other people or objects to bring us true happiness will always fail.
Loving who you are, what you are doing, and where you are headed defines a true happiness and freedom for me. Being confident in the place I am in, and learning to trust the circumstances, has taught me an understanding and patience for the future.
The idea of living in peace, before I am resting in peace, sparked my desire to share what life lessons I have learned thus far.
