The old me looked at my glass as half empty as opposed to looking at the glass as half full. I am not going to fake perfection, every now and then the old me try to creep back in. I have to remind myself that life is not perfect and thing will happen but it is not the end of the world. Granted, sometimes it does feel like it is the end of the world, when I am going through life situations. Life does not slow down and there is constantly issues that will arise.
I use to be angry and frustrated because I was looking at my glass as half empty. I was not taking the time to recognize the things I had and to be thankful for it. Looking at my glass as half empty just made me more frustrated and angry. I was always looking at what I was lacking and not really being thankful for what I had. It really is a draining state to be in.
I choose to count my blessings and be thankful for what I have, that is a healthier way of looking at life. Even though I am not where I want to be, I am thankful for the blessings of today and I try to live in the present more. I want to embrace things as it comes instead of constantly chasing something else. Although, I am planning for the future, I am not discounting the small victories of today. Life is a journey it's not a race. Live, love, laugh!
