My Life

Every chapter in my life is written by me. No one can tell me who I am to be. I know that sometimes we think that no matter what we do nothing seems to go just the way we plan it to. But it always turns out better than we thought it would. You can make your own story. Life is short so make it count.

Dance/ Change

What is dance? Dance is a form of communication between two people. Dance is also a feeling of emotion between you and the music. You have to feel the beat to know how your dance is to play out.
           "Don't wish it were easier;
             wish it were better."
            "Don't wish for less problems;
              wish for more skills."
             "Don't wish for less challenges;
               wish for more wisdom."
                  ~Jim Rohn

I think that quote shows how we need to act when a trial comes along when we dance or do anything else.
Don't wish for things that don't matter because in the long run you just need to work on what you can change that do matter.

Positive Friendship

Just as this young man pushed himself to help his friend participate in this triathlon, we need to push ourselves to be a friend. When you see someone who is having a rough day, give them a smile, a hug, even a kind word, or compliment. Every little thing you do makes a big difference to someone else. Be bigger and take the first step. Be a positive friend and help work through the struggles.

Cyberbullying Review

       Today in health we had a guest speaker come from Utah NetSmartz and one of the things he talked about in his power-point was the affect of cyber-bullying. Today in time there seems to be a lot more of it going on in society. It tears down elementary kids, teens and sometimes even adults. The affect of it is very crucial to everyone. I know that when it happens to us we don't really know what to do, who to go to or where we can go. Talk to a parent, a friend, and/or someone you trust. If its a text, email, whatever, save the evidence and don't reply back to whoever sent it. Report and block the person. Get off the website if you have to or change your profile(meaning get a new one). Don't let them keep getting to you.
        I'm not just saying this because it going on around the world, but because I have gone through it myself. But hiding behind it isn't what makes you who you are striving to be, for me it's letting it go(as in not letting it get to me, even if I really wanted it to) and working around it. People don't see your potential and they won't until you have reached to higher places. Strive to be the better person you know you are and who you can become. Take the chance to live freely, not hide. Move around, change lives, become great even successful and just live! Motivate change!
        No one can tell you that you aren't worth it to the world because everything you do now affects what happens in the future. Keep your head high. Keep your heart above your head and don't care about what others think. They are just a speck on your radar.
       Do things that will lift you up not tear you down. Exercise is a great way to build up your self-esteem. Do things you love not things that don't keep you happy.
