Being the creature of habit that I am I started my day off the same as I always do; wake up, feed animals, grab my bags, hit the gym, and head to work. As I was driving to the gym all I could think of was how I wasn't worth it, why should I keep trying so hard? By the end of my workout I felt slightly better but still had the negativity flowing through me. Ed (eating disorder) had a good grasp on my mind this morning.
before getting out of my car to walk into work I pulled down the visor down to check my lipgloss and I found a quote stuck to my visor I had completely forgotten about. It was given to my by counselor I had at Center for Change.
In order to find the purpose
of our own life,
we have to lose it.
We have to stop worrying
About our own well-being,
our own happiness,
and just think about how we can help
another brother get home.
And then maybe we can find our own path
by showing our brother the way back
I have no clue who the author of the quote is, but obviously a very wise person. If I had woken up this morning and decided I was worth it, my entire morning/afternoon would have been different. The small simple things in life mean the most, something I believe wholeheartedly. Stop obsessing with yourself and simply worries, let go and stand yourself up straight. you never know who needs the inspiration today so why not be the person doing the inspiring?
I made the choice to straighten up, be selfless and stop worrying about why I can't do so many things the way I wish I could.
With my hair pulled back, and feet on the ground I can find success in myself and focus on how to make
another persons day as splendid as mine.
The Inspiring also need to be inspired- Maddison Sumsion
