Finding Peace in Challenging Moments: Embracing Rest and Practicing Objectivity

Today, I took some time to relax and I'm grateful for it. Even though I didn't work my morning shift from 1:45 a.m. to 6:30 a.m., I'm still grateful to have a roof over my head and clothes on my back. I may cancel my shift tonight because I'm feeling tired, but I'm reminded that it's okay to rest. I need to remind myself of this every day.

Sometimes, I feel overwhelmed about life and where I'm going to get my next dollar from. But I know that it's okay to feel this way because life can be overwhelming at times. As long as I know who I am in each moment, I'm good. So, who am I? I'm a person who is grateful for challenging moments because they remind me that overwhelming experiences are not forever. I'm just going through a cycle, and within every challenging moment, I can still be grateful, present, grounded, and breathe. I can come back to a point of homeostasis.

Sometimes, I get the thought that I don't know what I want to do with my life or how to make money like some people do. But I believe that the universe is working in my favor. If life brought me this far, I know that there is favor in my life, and there will always be favor in my life. All I need to do is get out of my head about it and get back into my body, which means being present and objective about the situation. I'm going to practice objectivity more and focus on being present. 

In summary, it's important to take the time to relax and rest. When life gets overwhelming, it's okay to feel that way, but we should remind ourselves that challenging experiences are not forever. By being grounded and present, we can come back to a state of homeostasis and appreciate the favor in our lives. We need to get out of our heads, practice objectivity, and focus on being present.

Grateful for the Challenges: Embracing Difficult Emotions and Personal Growth

I am grateful for July 13th, 2023, which was a Thursday, because that day brought about shifts in my mind. Throughout the day, I experienced tiredness, annoyance, and a series of unfortunate events, such as spilling the juice from some cans of dog food on myself. The unpleasant scent lingered throughout the day, making it a challenging day overall. Despite the difficulties, I am grateful for these experiences because they allow me to sit with and process difficult emotions. I recognize that I am not just happiness; I am also boredom, anger, sadness, disappointment, and annoyance. All of these emotions are part of who I am, and it is important to acknowledge and accept them. By sitting in these emotions and exercising gratitude, I gain a broader perspective of myself and my experiences. I can use these moments as opportunities to learn and grow, and hone my coping skills for when similar situations arise in the future.

Grateful for the Path of Personal Growth: Embracing Self-Value and Empowerment

I am grateful for the progress I am making in my personal growth. It is a path that is set for me, and I am thankful for the challenges that come my way because they help me to grow and nurture my soul. In the past, I defined myself a lot contingent on the value that others gave me, and some of my worth was contingent on how much money I had in which I still struggle with sometimes. Although, my self-worth has evolved drastically in other ways. However, I forgive myself for defining my value based on how others perceive me, and I recognize that I must find value within myself rather than seeking validation from others. Money does not define my worth as a person. Instead, it is my character, integrity, and values that truly matter and will live on forever. I am grateful for the teachings, mentorship, and friendship of the Swaruunians , as well as Za'el and Arien . They have helped me to understand the importance of personal development and the power of ideas. I forgive m...
