In short…

Is negativity doubt towards a greater purpose? That question got me thinking. My answer, yes and no. If you have no hope about anything at all, then yes you are doubting the greater purpose. Other than that no. When I’m negative I’m not doubting the greater purpose. I know there are better days and I know that petty things that happen to people in life, in the end, don’t really matter. Sometimes we are given hardship to learn from and struggle to grow from. And sometimes we need to be reminded.

Is optimism blind faith? Optimism is being able to see that there is something that is more important. It’s the hope that something exists. Is it faith? Yes. Is it blind? I don’t know, depends on your definition of faith.

Can we be negative? Sure, as long as we don’t forget that this isn’t all there is. Can we be optimistic? Sure, that’s what we need to drive us.

I’m just going through the motions. That’s not a good thing. Day in and day out.

I’d have to say my favorite band is Lifehouse. The songs are so good. No Name Face is the best album.

My mind is very dreamlike. I imagine things all the time. I imagine things that I want to do, things that I might never do, and sometimes just things. Sometimes I wonder its the subconscious telling me that I really want to do those things.

Sometimes I wonder about all the people I see, people I haven’t met. Could they be like the people I already know? Because after all, the people you’ve met were once those you haven’t met and you ended up getting along with them. There must be more of them. Then again, when you see random people in the grocery store or at the mall, you don’t know how they are. Doesn’t it make you wonder?

“Clearly, she has issues.” But what’s even clearer is that she’s not the only one who does. I have issues. Everyone. Everyone has issues. I believe there is truth to the saying “you are your own worst critic”. We feel our imperfection. But we often forget, no one is perfect. We also forget that just because we aren’t satisfied with ourselves, that people out there look completely past the way we look. They are our friends because they like our personality, not because they like the way we look. They are our boyfriends and our husbands that still like/love us no matter how we look. But we still and we can complain about our weight, our thighs, our stomachs, our breasts, our height, our arms, or our faces. But remember, someone else out there is complaining about the same thing. And someone else out there, frankly doesn’t care, because they like you just the way you are.

Something we should all believe in…
