I Can Do Hard Things

I can't pretend like I have had tons of extra time to Blog lately. Not saying I didn't make time for it, because I did, I just didn't have anything to say. Sometimes ideas come into my head, and I just know what to write, and other times it's just titles.

The past week or so it's just been a title.
"I can do hard things"

Maybe I've been thinking of this because it's just a positive affirmation for me.
Maybe it's because I need to remind myself,
or who knows
maybe I'm bracing for the future. With school, work, and teaching all starting again there is no doubt that it will be slightly hard.

I think at every new beginning there is something hard. At every end, there's something hard, and on the in-betweens there is something hard. I guess life is just something hard.

Today my lovely mother and I were talking about what it's like to be 17. Do you remember? I know I do.
I thought I was invincible. I thought I knew everything, and most of all I thought that everything would always go my way.
HA! That's a good laugh. See, I don't think Life likes being told what to do. I think life has it's own plan for all of us. It has curveballs, it has rocks, and it has storms. Anything to make us lose hope, dishearten us, and keep us from becoming what we can become.

How easy it is to lose sight of our goals, our dreams, our expectations. How quickly they are the first things to go out the window when things get hard. Apply the following statement: I can do hard things. I CAN do hard things. I WILL do hard things. I will OVERCOME hard things.

Each of us will struggle with something hard. We all have it in our lives. However a problem is only as strong as you make it. Yes, crap happens. To the best of us. Just know you are not alone. Crap happens to all of us.

but " I CAN DO HARD THINGS"

Let's do this life. Bring it on.

Your "Thoughts and Prayers" Are Bullshit.

Yes. I said it. I also thoroughly agree with that statement. Here's why. As I've been going through pretty huge and life-changing medical problems, my family has been physically nowhere near me. Granted my intestine decided to swell up in Saskatoon, which isn't convenient for anyone. It's given me so much time to think, in some scary and painful moments. Let me preface this by saying I'm not a religious person, However from what I know, God, helped those in need, he didn't just pray for the sick, he visited them, and he served them. Let's imagine that when that blind guy came to he Jesus, Jesus said, "You're in my thoughts and prayers" and then left. That story would have turned out very differently. We all do and say things in our lives almost out of habit. Like think of how many times you've said "Hey how are you?" and not actually listened for the answer. Lots, I know. I do this ALL the time, and I'm working incr...

Do I Have What it Takes?

! Do I have what it takes? I've asked myself that about 436,598 times over the past 5 years, and in the course of my life.. I know I've asked it even more than that. Being self employed is not an easy task all the time, it's giving up partying on weekends, it's staying home to plan work, or to onboard a client. It's dealing with clients who preach one thing and practice another. It's knowing who you are in and out of the business. This week my friend and I watched Spider-man Homecoming.. okay.. we watched it for like the 5th time.. but whatever.. the point of it is.. there's a moment where Peter is talking to Tony and he says, "You can't take this suit, I'm nothing without it" Then Tony says, "If you are nothing without the suit then you shouldn't have it." Later when it builds to the pinnacle part of the story Peter is crushed under half a building, and he's trying to stand.. it's a very emotional moment fo...

In the Daylight

! I'm just a girl sitting here, wondering about the mysteries of the universe. I sat outside on a starry night under the blood wolf super moon waiting to feel the change the air has inside of it. "I'm searching for authentic, true, and loyal people who deeply love me." I whisper to myself as my shutter clicks. I felt the change I was seeking start to take root, I knew it would soon grow, but I was not prepared for what it would bring. I was not prepared to have you standing in the sun. There was no way I planned that there would be no more shadows surrounding who you were, and more so who I was in relation. The change in the air, brought in the truth I needed to visualize what was happening. Since that moment a shift has happened, to me, in clarity. It was like the blinders were ripped off and I was thrust in to the brightness of the noon day sun. I could see everything, there's no shadows, no more questions, no more doubt, only knowl...
