Lately I've been trying to focus more on myself I usually focus all of my energy on helping others but in the long run that will do me no good if I pay no attention to myself. I need to change the things I don't like about myself & enjoy the things that I do like. If you were to ask any of my coworkers, my husband, or my friends they'd tell you that I am a ball bursting of positive energy. I've started noticing that I am no longer selfish with my food in fact if I have a cookie pack with just 4 cookies inside I will share 3 & if I see someone was left out I will either cut the 4th cookie in half or just give it to them altogether. & for me that is a really big deal especially when it comes to sweets before I would so diligently hide them from others so that I would not have to share them.
It's been almost a week where I've accomplished to not eat anything besides a spoonful of peanut butter, a glass of milk or water before heading to bed that is a huge difference from eating really heavy foods such as junk food - when I wake up I feel much more energetic & I've noticed that my constant cravings for food throughout the day have been reduced - today & yesterday I barely felt hungry after lunchtime & it's usually right after work when I'm the hungriest. Before I would constantly want to be in contact with those I cared about not even realizing that some of them were not reciprocating because I am that naive but now I'm leaving it to those who do want my company to search for it also.
It seems pretty crazy trying to think positive thoughts all the time when the world is such a crazy place but it really can be done if you put your mind to it as have I. I think my next step would be to get back in shape & to start to really focus on my drawing & I know that I say it every time but this time I know I really mean it. On Monday it was our 4 year Wedding Anniversary but we were flat broke & had to work so we virtually did nothing besides grab each others hands & hop like maniacs when the clock struck midnight on Sunday while singing the Flintstones - "Happy Anniversary - Happy Anniversary!" song.
Congrats Sophie! :)
ReplyDeleteI think joy is in the little details, like singing the happy anniversary flintstones song! ♥

We've never really done anything mind blowing for our anniversary like going on a trip which is something I've always wanted to do next year it's 5 years so I want to do a party with friends. Thank you. =)
