Getting Back Up

Keep your head up

Getting Back Up
https://impalpablelife.files.wordpress.com

Okay, now this article is a continuation of my article about God giving us struggles. The emotions and feelings are still fresh in our bodies. Sometimes you may even shed tears, other times you just feel upset and have to get your mind off it. However, now you’re getting back to the real world. It’s time to get up, brush yourself off, and move forward. However, in this article, I’m going to be talking about how to deal with a death of a relative, someone that you know, or someone that you look up.

This is a tough step because now you have to hide your emotions. Putting on a fake smile to hide the pain that lingers. Especially going back to your routine, and getting back to what you do and seeing your friends or coworkers. You start to look for motivation. Whether it’s quotes, pictures, hobbies, or walking in nature.

Again it’s not easy but really you have to live your life and not let this distract you. Okay, distract isn’t the best word, but you have to stay focused on what you’re doing. It’s okay to think about what could have been especially if that person was young and your best friend. It is very difficult, however, this isn’t the end and I know you will see them again. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest and is a precious gift from God. Sometimes things go awry but again God knows what he is doing.

Some people actually do a good job coping with this others do not. There’s nothing wrong with that it’s just how you are. Even though this may seem so bad that it clouds your day, I can guarantee that they are looking over you. Even if it was a relative, they are forever with you through your family. As of now all you can do is remember them and keep them in your thoughts and hearts to help keep their legacy alive.

Life can be very rough, but you have to keep you head up every step of the way. Everything will be fine in the end. Like I said God will always be with us and guiding us through this journey called life. He will never let us down a different path nor will ever steer us wrong. He loves us so much and all we have to do is believe and trust in Him. Especially in times like these, Trust in Him for he knows what’s best for us. As we grow, things change, we may change but God’s love for us will never change.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
