hello, scrawny love.

 

 

The last days of the year.

See those fake snow drops coming down? I didn’t set it, but they always amuse me to no end. nice festive touch. Thanks wordpress!

so today someone showed me on the limits of what even being optimistic gets you : Apparently pretending to happy when otherwise could be detrimental to health over the years. Not surprise when one’s swallowing all those pills of misery and suffering. Stomach’s going to cry mutiny!

- If one writes & expresses negative (a guide would be one that makes you frown, for example) events, things, and thoughts, its healthier than those who do it on a inconsistent basis. Which explains why we like to rant. frequently. on our blogs or whatever mediums available. or its all just convenient.

- expressing thoughts and feelings about negative experiences can have a positive effect on one’s health. I can’t imagine otherwise, but what happens when expressing it out becomes inadequate? Do we become falsely happy because its easier to deal that way.

Or we clamp up, shut up, and stop expressing ourselves?

Today I came across that with translation, reads as : At any point in time the only person who would never betray you is yourself. There is only one of you, so love yourself, spoil yourself, give yourself a little bit more more sunshine, and a little less stormy weather.Come what may, one day when the person you love leaves you, dont frantically chase after those steps that wont stop for you any more. It is better to walk down whatever road in the journey of life that you still have, and learn to be independent. You aren’t perfect, but you must learn to accept the imperfections in yourself. Life is short, take care of yourself. Don’t magnify the happiness of others, & shrink your own.

I remember, years ago, I wrote something similar.

It goes a bit like : This world is undeniably unfair and harsh.Life is unfair, life is harsh. People would be unfair to you, harsh to you. When all things become so don’t turn and follow the harshness and unfairness. Be fair, be gentle, be kind to yourself. Treat others as you would treat yourself. Don’t ask for any returns, because you wont be given any. Instead, look at your own soul and be kind to yourself. That is your reward.Sometimes, just merely surviving something tremendously difficult is already small victory. Cherish it, for it is yours and yours alone.

I wrote that…six, seven years ago. I remember vividly because it was something I chose to respond to in all the bitterness and resentment I had.

Before you can learn to love, love yourself.

Before you can learn to accept the imperfections in others, you must learn to accept the imperfections in yourself.
