So often it is said that there needs to be a change in the world, however, most often times no one takes the time to introspect. The change is most often sought out in others with failure to realize that the first change must come from within. If you want there to be a change in the world, live your life in the way that you would like to see the world change. Let your light be shone to the path of those around you that it may be multiplied and spread, thus being the change you want for the world. Be the change the world needs today. Stay positive 👊🏿✌🏿

All for nothing
Every person at some point in their life either already has or will experience some sort of heartbreak. Some of the most genuine, honest, wholesome people usually end up with the hardest times. One of the hardest things I have had to endure is the disappointment of putting myself out there and opening up to someone and giving my all, only to be led on, used, and dismissed all by the same person. I'm usually not one to become emotional, but for me to put myself out there and just be shot down really hurt. What I have learned from this is that even if the situation seems to be just right, there is always the question of "is this too right?" To whomever may read this..I leave you with this: be careful who you let it, be wise with whom you let your guard down, and always move at a pace that's comfortable for you. Make no exceptions to your standards, because you deserve the best and thats what you should get.

The Simple Things
Ever take time to forget about the big picture for a while and look at all the little pictures along the way? Sometimes the focus is so tunnelled that one forgets to be grateful for the small things in life. With patience comes appreciation and the ability to take a step back and say, "thank you" for simply taking your next breath, opening your eyes, activity of limbs, etc..The inability to recognize the little things can be hurtful to a friend or loved one, so one must remember to say thank you even at the smallest things. In most cases, the little things mean the most.

Open your eyes
The saying goes "just because it shines like gold, doesn't mean it's good". Some people find that a hard concept to follow and end up finding out the harsh reality of their actions. It is important to take into account every aspect of a person when building a relationship other than the physical. The physical aspect of a person tends to be blinding and can lead to acceptance of someone lower than what your moral standards are set to be. It tends to cause you to turn the "blind eye" to the things that may in fact repulse you. One must take control of their mind and do not let feelings control your actions. Feelings are impulsive and often uncontrollable whereas your actions should come from reason. My general philosophy about this is that one should respect oneself enough not to settle for a golden exterior with a dark, less than sufficient interior.

Feelings and What If's
Feelings are something that are uncontrollable and often misunderstood. They also are often get repressed or hidden. One thing I have learned over the years is that feelings are meant to be shared. Keeping feelings in leads to frustration, self-inflicted heartache, stress, and the most difficult question to ponder: "what if..?" That question has proven to be a serious burden to the people I see around me. To go through life wondering what if will be something that forever troubles you until those feelings are released or dealed with. One should never hide his or her feelings no matter how bizarre or ridiculous they think they are. What's often found once feelings are released is that those feelings are mutual. So, speak up, say what's on your heart and mind, and don't be afraid of how someone will react...chances are they feel the same.
