beliefs...

So...

Lately I've had a lot of time to do a LOT of thinking.

Not sure any of my "followers" (all two of you) will respect me after I'm done here but I'm gonna try to sum some things up...

I believe...

That it always gets worse before it gets better and that the worse it gets the better the recovery will be.

That EVERYTHING happens for a reason, the jobs we get, the people we meet and like/dislike/love and the results of said relationships(which most times tie into getting worse before it gets better), the things we choose to do with our time...it all reveals who and what we REALLY are even if we try to tell ourselves otherwise.

That Karma exists and it'll kick you in the ass if you're not careful...that being said...be sure to keep a balance, having too good of Karma will get you walked all over, I know from experience...and yet I never learn so take that as you will.

That there are no soulmates...I know...weird, coming from a hopeless romantic, right? But it's true. There is NOT one person out there that will complete you. There are likely hundreds of thousands. Pick one and be happy. And if things turn out bad and that person no longer makes you happy, move on. It's for the best.

That there IS happiness in the world if you get out from in front of the computer and go find it. And it IS up to you to find it. It won't come to you, you have to work for it.

That inspiration is NOT found within. It's found without. In the things and people you surround yourself with. Whether we admit it or not, we all strive to impress. And it's the desire to impress that inspires us.

That Greed and Jealousy are not evil. They are needed emotions in order to progress. They are driving forces, to be used as motivation.

And finally...

That we live in the present in order to shape the future. The past is gone. We can't go back to it. Don't dwell. Don't worry about it. It's hard not to, I know. But look to what you can control. There is only today and tomorrow.
