You do you...

You do you.

Life your life the way you want,

do the things you want,

eat, drink, socialise with whomever you want,

it's your life.

You never asked to be born,

you are a tourist in this life,

so explore it.

Go do all the experiences life has to offer,

you are your own judge,

you decide what is right or wrong,

no one else can decide it for you.

Take the risk,

or don't.

Explore new worlds,

or don't.

Don't be afraid, fear is only an illusion.

You do you,

Because,

There is nothing better than you.

Internal happiness is eternal.

xternal happiness is temporary,

internal happiness is eternal.

Happiness found from outside sources won’t last forever.

Happiness found within yourself will last forever.

Happiness can be found from many different sources,

Sometimes those sources can disappear,

Sometimes those sources change,

Sometimes those sources can become a bore.

The happiness you find in yourself will always be in you,

No one will be able to take it away,

No one will be able to change it.

Internal happiness is always in you,

No matter where you are,

No matter what you are doing,

It’s always present.

To find internal happiness,

You must accept yourself,

You must accept your surroundings,

You must be content with what you have,

You must accept with what you may lose.

Imagine yourself in the worst possible situation,

Learn to be happy with that situation,

Count the blessings that you do have,

Your family,

Your friends,

Your health,

Your entertainment.

Knowing it all may disappear one day,

Knowing that if it does, you will be ok,

Knowing that all we really need in life are the basic necessities,

Nourishment,

Shelter.

Everything else is a bonus,

A bonus you can take your time to obtain.

In the end,

We only have ourselves to love,

We only have ourselves to hate,

So be kind to yourself.

You are you own worst enemy

You are the one who chooses the pain and how much of that pain you inflict on yourself.

Letting yourself be hurt by someone means you are agreeing with what they say.

Never admit yourself to another’s insecurities.

You are your own worst enemy,

Others around you may influence you,

In the end, it is you who inflicts the pain on yourself.

Imagine a stranger hurting you,

Imagine someone close hurting you in the same way,

The same pain, different sources,

The stranger will hurt you less than the one who is close.

In the end, you are the one who accepts that the stranger hurts you less,

In the end you are the one who accepts that the one who is close to you hurts you more.

There is no one closer to yourself than yourself.

Do not let yourself hurt yourself, under any circumstance,

The external world may try to hurt you,

But you are are the final decider of how much pain you inflict on yourself.

You are your own worst enemy,

Be friendly with yourself,

At some points in your life,

You may be the only person who can either lift yourself up,

Or tear yourself down.

Do not let yourself be an enemy.

Let yourself be a friend.

Let yourself be a lover.

Uncertain Path vs Promised Path

The option of choosing the uncertain path,

May be much more powerful,

Than choosing the promised path.

The promised path may seem easier,

the promised path may seem more secure,

But choosing the uncertain path might have more reward,

Even if there is no pot of the gold in the end.

Choosing the uncertain path is its own reward,

To travel what others have not,

To bask in the feeling that you took that risk.

Even if the uncertain path is riskier,

The path itself will have given you much more reward,

Than the golden pot found along the promised path.

The journey is much more of a reward than what is found at the end.

If everyday feels the same...

Then it is up to you to make it different,

It’s up to you to make that jump,

It’s  to you to take that risk.

One can hold your hand to the ledge,

But it is up to you to jump over,

Even if you do not make it,

You can always try as many times as you like,

The only failing is to stop jumping.

Jump whenever you are ready.

The soul has no schedule.

The soul knows no time.

The road to Success is made of Failure

As long as you keep getting back up,

You are succeeding.

There is no failure,

Failure only exist when you stop trying,

Failure is to be expected,

Failure exists surpass that failure.

Every time you fail,

You get back up,

And you continue on the road.

You will fail,

You will fail again,

You will get back up.

You will continue your road,

The whole road is your success story.

Every failure is a brick on your road,

Without failure, there is no road,

Every failure is part of your success,

Never stop for any failure, no matter how bad it may seem,

What is a failure to you may not be a failure to other,

What is a failure to others may not be a failure to you,

In the end you will see the road you have traveled,

And notice your road was your success story the whole time.

You are know that you are succeeding,

So go and succeed some more,

Make your road as long as you can make it.

You road may be a success of failures,

Success is getting back up from the failures.

Don't Listen to me

Do not listen to me,

Find your own way,

Find your own path to whatever you seek.

What I say is only advice gained from  own experiences,

What others say is only advice from their own experience,

Nothing we say may apply to you,

And that’s ok.

In the end, you must find your own way,

There is no wrong path,

Your path is good to you,

While other people's path are good for  them.

There are no wrong questions

There are no wrong answers.

You do you.

Because you are the best person you can be.
