Rock Bottom

Life has a funny way of showing you what you need rather
than what you want. There's always a reason that Heavenly Father
blesses you with the things you need rather than what you want, yes
there are those small instances where the thing you need and the thing
you want are the same thing but again that isn't always the case.
Sometimes in those situations we see something that we like better,
some would call it "Keeping Up with the Joneses."
You should never want to Keep Up with the Joneses.
We need to always be grateful for what we have, even
if it is something that we don't think that we want/need still
be grateful for it.
To be grateful sometimes we have to hit rock bottom
and you know what that is perfectly ok.
When we hit rock bottom that gives us a time to make up
some goals and get the ball rolling.
As previously discussed feel free to make small goals,
not all of them need to be massive because if you make them
too big you will soon find yourself not believing that you can
reach them and you will be back to square one.
I love this quote by Inky Johnson:
--------
"Rock bottom has built way more champions than privilege"
--------
So instead of complaining that you're at rock bottom, embrace it
and reevaluate yourself. You can't always be at the top because then
you will never appreciate being there.


Until Next Time,
XOXO,
Leslie Ann

Don't Put Yourself Through That

It's not always easy deciding to stop loving something that you've loved for so long, that you wanted forever. The first few days you are strong about and then BAM it hits you like a ton of bricks. You immediately start crying and wish that it had worked out and you don't completely understand why it didn't. You get mad and frustrated. You had all these plans made, you had all of these dreams you two were going to put into reality one day. It's hard to give up something that you loved. But deep down you know it's for the best. You've struggled for so long but you have the faith that your Heavenly Father is on your side and He will only do what is best for you. So  Don't Put Yourself through   the heart ache of wishing things were different because that person was put into your life for a reason, you learned a lot from those months you were together and you should be thankful for them. Remember it's not always going to be easy, but w...

Even in Hard Times

As we get older we learn life isn't always doughnuts and milkshakes. Life is hard, being a product member of society is hard. Sometimes I think that we are hard too hard on ourselves. We never let ourselves take a break and just rejoice in the wonderful life that we are living. Sometimes we all are busy, we all have families, school, evening activities that we use to try and replace the brokenness we feel in our hearts sometimes. Some of us have felt the brokenness for quite a while now but others are just now starting to feel it. (now I'm not saying all of our lives are broken but admit it you have felt sad in your life about something). So how do we truly fix this? How do we unmask ourselves and start to really feel better about our lives? I believe that we should start by looking in the mirror and realizing we are doing the best that we possibly can. If it helps get a dry erase marker and right on your mirror something positive. Here are some ideas you could...
