Fight

Failure is something no one wants to deal with. It makes us feel hopeless, worthless and tired. So tired that when we fall, we stay down. Our spirit is too weak to stand up and try again, so we give up and fall down, defeated...

What if I told you that people who have failed are the strongest and most successful people. People who fall down, and get back up, are MUCH stronger than people who never fell down at all. They gain a tenacious attitude and strike the world with fire. Yes, failing SUCKS. It puts out your spark, and that's ok. But when you stand up again, don't just stand with a spark, but with a whole damn fire.
You are not your failures. You are your progress. And failure is a part of progress. It isn't a sign to give up, but rather to take a breath, get up and fight harder. Don't let your failures allow you to miss out on your destiny.

To fail is not the opposite of to succeed. It just means that your journey will be prolonged. And isn't the journey the best part! Don't let the shame of your failure get you down, either. You have NOTHING to be ashamed of. There isn't a single person in this world who hasn't failed before. I always say, fail with confidence and your success will be indescribable. Never let shame keep you from lighting your fire again.
You are a strong, audacious warrior. And all warriors have battle wounds. Put your worth not in the failure, but in the fight.

Don't fixate on what has gone wrong. Rather, focus on what will go right because of it. Don't give up...You are stronger than you think.

Xx

A Tree

Right now I'm sitting under a tree. I know this doesn't sound particularly profound, but it's not something I often do. I am not the most outdoorsy person, but even I cannot deny the beauty of a tree. As the wind blows, it gives small groans. It sound s like it's in pain. And the rustling leaves sounds like soft music. It's incredibly peaceful and awe inspiring... A tree is really strong. It's built to endure and survive. But it is also stunningly beautiful. How creative is God?! He designed the most beautiful and stable creation. And if He made a tree so strong and stunning, how much better didn't He make us? We also endure tough storms in our lives and have to fight through wind, rain and thunder. But we, like a tree, survive. We are undeniably strong and capable of amazing things. I have many scars, like a tree has flaws in its bark. The flaws are what makes the tree, and us, unique and lovely. It gives strength and character and is a reminder to keep f...

The little ragdoll

A little girl bought a ragdoll one day. The sweetest doll you ever saw, with bright red wooly hair, a wide stitched smile and floral dress. They did everything together and formed a strong bond. But one day the little girl turned into a teenager, and didn't play with her ragdoll anymore. So she put her in a big box with many other forgotten objects and left it at the side of the road for someone else to find. All the doll's companions were soon taken, but no one had a use for a little doll. Her hair quickly faded, her smile pulled loose and her dress tore. She was all alone, left behind. Everyone around her was moving forward, but she was forgotten. I feel like this doll a lot. Like everyone around me is progressing and doing amazing things: travelling, excelling, getting into relationships...And here I am. Doing nothing new, sitting alone day after day and never truly getting anywhere. Nothing is getting better. But the doll soon got picked up by another little girl who alw...

Beautiful Diversity

I am not the world's definition of beautiful. I have big thighs, a double chin, large legs which are out of proportion, a tummy and hair which is frizzy beyond belief. I am not what you see in magazines or on TV. I am not petite or small. I am not society's model....but I am not ashamed.  See, society changes their minds a lot! One day, it's sexy to be skinny. The next, curves are the new infatuation. One can't keep up. However, one thing they succeed in every time is making girls feel inferior. And we fall for it.. What if we just didn't listen. What if we dictated what was beautiful instead of letting others tell us. What if we were confident regardless. We have to stop comparing ourselves to the ridiculous expectations presented to us. We have to stop comparing ourselves to the girl sitting beside us. We need to start defining our own beauty. Set your own standards! Confidence is the most beautiful thing you can have.  Do no...
