I went out and ran today for the first time in 3 months! It was so awesome to feel the air and listen to the wind blowing. I felt so free! Sometimes we get so swept away in life, that we forget to take some time out for ourselves. I get some of the best ideas and thoughts when I am on a run. That would be what inspired me to write in my blog today.
I am continuously learning thru my life, but I am also very passionate about sharing what I learn. Maybe it could inspire someone in some way, that I am a completely normal person with struggles like everyone else, and if I can keep perservering, you can too!
One thing I have noticed about myself is that I am very good at carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders, sometimes to the degree of forgetting what it is I need in order to be happy. I have learned this lesson this week when I carried someone elses weights along with my own. I carried it on my shoulders for so long that I just got used to it. I didn’t even know it was draining my energy until a few people in my life told me they didn’t see stress in my face anymore. And I thought I was hiding it well, boy was I deceiving myself. Apparently I thought I had the control to fix someone else’s problems too.
What I have learned is that carrying what is comfortable can be so much more unhealthy than letting it go to the unknown. What is good for us is not always comfortable, but it can be the best thing for us. So, the lesson I have learned so far would be, don’t let your fears of the unknown control your opportunity for happiness in your future. Life is way too short:)
