success

Publié par Gaelle.R 4 Septembre 2019 à 11:02 PM

what is your idea of success?

I want you to take some time to think about your answer, it's not for me to know it's for you to find out. Someone ask me that question and I was supposed to answer right away and I did. It was a few years back and looking back at what I said I realize that the definition of success for me has changed. I see things differently now and what I wanted back then is not what I want today, some things changed. All of us will encounter some changes that will make us see our lives, the people around us and things differently.

To me true success has nothing to do with money or fame but it has to do with how happy and content you are with yourself. If you have a lot of money and fame but hate yourself at the same time would you still say that you succeeded in life? I don't think so which is why celebrities killed themselves sometimes despite all the money they have in the bank whereas someone who does not have much is truly happy with no thought of committing suicide.

Success to me has everything to do with being able to look at your life and be satisfied with where you at because that's where you wanted to be. I am not saying that you should settle in order to feel success you can still be growing and trying to find balance and be successful.

For me personally I don't associate success with a lot of money because someone can have a lot of money and can still not be successful. There are a lot of millionaires in jail simply because they didn't get their wealth the right way and they are not even home to enjoy the money. Now would you call that success?

Real success to me is

being happy,
loving who you are as a person,
having the career of your dream and making money with it,
having an amazing family.
having supportive people by your side...

and the list goes on and on...

now what does success look like for you?

I just want to rest. I just want to spend a whole day not doing anything. I feel like I have been way too busy lately and my body is not a machine, it needs rest. we all need to rest after working for a long period of time. Summer is practically over and to be honest I was getting tired of the heat (I know some people won't like that I said I was getting tired of the heat but I was) I want just to feel some fresh air on my face.

Have you ever want something so bad that you try so hard to have it that you only end up forcing it to work and when you realize this you're already comfortable with how the situation is?

REST

Publié par Gaelle.R 9 Août 2019 à 08:51 PM

hey there,

Today I feel like not doing anything. Have you had those days? we all do. The funny thing is I was out already and I realize that I just wanted to be home I didn't want to deal with anything today. So I drove straight home like the devil was chasing me lol I am sure I was probably speeding just to come lay in my bed. I just wanted to wipe that makeup off and be me for the day not that I was someone else but you get the idea.

I feel like after we're so busy doing other stuff and we forget about how we're feeling which could be that we're tired, sad, need help...we may feel the urge to stay alone just so we can feel better after we get the help we need. I had a tough night I could not sleep. We all have those but make sure you take a nap the next day cuz boy you're going to feel really tired.

so far so good.

hope things are going well for you,

I am looking at you but I don't see the person I used to know.

who is this stranger looking at me in my favorite human being?

My feelings haven't changed.

The silence between us weighs heavy.

I'm scared.

I can't stop myself from wishing we never got here.

If I could erase anything that made us got here I would do it.

I don't know what to say.

For two people who used to stay up all night talking now, I can barely think of 2 words to say in a minute.

we haven't talked today.

that never happened since we met.

I miss you.

I miss us.

I wish we could go back being the way we were.

You're so important to me and you have no idea.

Now I don't know what you're doing, who you with, what's happening.

I'm so scared of losing you.

who will I be without you?

what will I do without you?

what happened between us?

I am so scared.

hey there, (finally post it)

I said I was going to come back. I was taking a break from a lot of things (I still am) but a break from writing was not a good idea. If I wanna get better at it I have to keep doing it just like anything else in life. If you want to be good at something you have to keep doing it until you're good it or become talented at it. Let's talk about something.

Life decisions?

OK I know there are many decisions that one can make but I am going to talk about decisions that will matter in 5-10 years. Do you agree that some decisions you make in the prime of your life or when you're young will matter when you get older? If yes keep reading, If no scroll down to the next article. I don't have time to explain myself anymore you either get me or you don't.

Fast forward I digress once again... (It's really not about me) It's for you the reader.

In my opinion, If you think before you make a decision you have a better chance to choose a good one, at least give yourself a day or two to ponder over it if that decision will affect your life in any way possible. For example when you're choosing a mate you have to make sure you take your time to study the person...learn everything about them like what makes them happy, mad, jealous, anxious .... so when things get hard you know at least how to make things better based on your knowledge of that person, make sure you don't just jump right in because the person looks appealing. Beauty fades, I am not saying you should find yourself an unattractive mate no that's not what I mean. When I was younger I used to look for the cutest guy because I thought we would look good together but with time I realize choosing a mate is more than just looks. If you plan on buying a car that's a decision that will affect not only your life but your finance. It would be good if you don't rush the process to take your time to look at different cars and pick one of the best based on your taste. I remember when I was getting a car this year (I think I can share this with you lol) after my car accident I needed a new car and a way better one than the one that I had because I was traumatized. I needed one with great tires (don't ask me why just read my testimony post you'll find out) I wanted to get a car right away but I had to wait for a month to chose the right one for me because it is my responsibility I needed to make a budget and to create a plan to get this car and maintain it. After I created a budget:

I look to see if I can keep up with the payments and find out how much is the payment.
car insurance how much am I going to be paying a month. Although the accident wasn't my fault my payment will change and I needed to find a cheaper insurance (I had to say thank you next to my old insurance)
I had to create a budget with my other personal stuff included to see if I can balance it all.

You also have to make sure that you chose a car that is safe to drive on the road. Same apply to your life when you're making a decision look to see if it would make your life better, easier and will it make things safe for you.

we all have made decisions that we regret in the past but we have to move forward and learn from what went wrong. We are all imperfect so it makes sense that we make a mistake.

when I look into your eyes I can feel the world stand still.

when I hear your voice in the middle of a storm it calms every nerve in my body.

when I see your face my heart jumps with excitement as if it never saw anything exhilarating.

when you hold my hand I can feel my whole body shivers at your touch.

when you look at me I can feel the whole universe shrinking and it's only you and I still standing.

Publié par Gaelle.R 15 Juin 2019 à 04:36 AM

hey there,

How is everything? for me, it's not perfect but I can manage. I've learned that if you expect things to get worse it will and if you expect them to get better they will. I've been through enough to know that life is not all sweet.

We all go through things that made us feel small, weak, discourage but don't forget that you got back up and that is something you should be proud of. Looking back at what broke you is not going to change anything.

I just thought I should say this but besides everything. sadly I haven't been writing I wish I was because that is the only way I feel more like myself. Not that I am not myself lately but I wish I was writing. There are some wonderful that I am experiencing at the moment that I wish I could transfer on a piece of paper. sometimes what you're feeling is so good you're afraid that when you write it all out you're going to ruin everything. I wish I could save all the memories but at some point, I would either cherish them or let them go.

Looking the same but my whole life has changed.

walking the same way but my legs don't take me there anymore.

Same voice but my words mean different things.

dressing different because my closet is up for sale.

waking up at the same time but I am not doing my usual routine.

sounding different but my voice is used for a different purpose.

I am no longer living my past life '
