Don’t Fight the Unworthy Fight.

“If she’s amazing, she won’t be easy. If she’s easy, she won’t be amazing. If she’s worth it, you won’t give up.” – Bob Marley

I’ve been there – fighting for a boy to give me a chance. We’ve all been there, haven’t we? Trying to get someone to like you and doing everything you can to win them over. You bend over backwards and you go out of your way, above and beyond to prove your undying love for them, in hopes they’ll feel the same for you and that you’ll both live happily ever after.
All you want is that person to accept you with open arms and share your love. For that, you’re willing to fight as hard as you can.

In the heat of the moment or for that whole span of time when your life is consumed by thoughts of that person – keeping them around you is the only thing that makes sense.

Love in it’s true form is something worth fighting for… BUT – real love shouldn’t require an ongoing and exhausting battle. Love is something to be appreciated, worshipped and enjoyed; it shouldn’t cause you stress or misery.
This world is filled with incredible people who win our hearts over, make us weak at the knees and open our eyes to amazing things. But we can’t always keep them to ourselves…

Don’t waste your precious days chasing after someone who doesn’t appreciate your efforts. Don’t let all your energy and passion be wasted on someone who can’t accept them. Let go of the people bring you down and make things more complicated than they should be; let go of unnecessary drama and be happy. Life is way too short to waste on someone who can’t worship the ground you walk on. You deserve better than that.

Don’t put yourself in the position to get hurt and don’t break your own heart; don’t fight the unworthy fight.

 

Such Is…

Life does what it wants.

Whether it’s going to hurt your heart, or bruise your ego, or rip your soul apart momentarily – life has it’s own plans.

Things aren’t always going to work out the way you thought they were and everything you planned for, might never happen. It’s unfortunate, but it doesn’t mean you have to give up.

Make the best of every situation and don’t let it take you over; There’s no point getting upset over what you can’t change.

Find the silver linings and find a way to smile. Don’t waste your days on misery.

Who I Am, Is All That Matters.

Decisions, choices, ideas, and our actions; they’re the things that create the life we’ve lived and will continue to live.

Sometimes the “right” decision turns into a bad idea. Every so often, a brilliant plan doesn’t work out so well.  Good intentions may not always follow through, and impulsive judgement leaves us in an unforeseeable circumstance.
Whether we make the “wrong” decision, the “right” move, or whether we didn’t have a choice to begin with – shit happens.

There are things in life that happen, for better or worse. Whether they were good, bad, happy, sad… what is in the past is history that can’t be unchanged. There are also situations in life, that define who we are. Our talents and our strengths, our biggest weaknesses and so-called flaws are what separate us from one another.

In reality, we should embrace these attributes as life lessons, victorious challenges, unique qualities and common likeness’ that bring us all together. Every single person has a story, but it isn’t always something that we should use for judgement while holding it against them.

Someone once told me, “Who I am… is all that matters”. And he was right.
Forego the bank account, the job title, the family heirlooms, and materialistic worth. Waive the minor hiccups, the bad memories, and the small amounts of baggage.

Take a real good look at the next person you start any sort of relationship with. The truth is, good people don’t always have great track records. But you can try looking for the good in people and love them for that alone. All the other stuff is sometimes… just that: “stuff”.
