I am a survivor of Life.

Life is an open book of empty pages and how we decide to fill them pages is our choice and no we can't go back and erase them. We can only learn from them and make the pages we read full of happy moments.

Everyday is different. We just need to lean on our faith that we can have happy moments. We will laugh, cry and smile a lot. But we will also stumble just to be able to stand and say I didn't fail i succeeded. 

Every chapter will define who we really are. It will show the sadness, the loss we endured but it will be a book we can sit back and read and say. 

I am a survivor of Life.

Today "I Believe".

I think that if you believe in something and you want it so much you have to go for it. Which sometimes means taking risks. Yes we get butterflies in our stomachs because it's scary to us. 

But the thing you want most to happen doesn't stand a chance unless you give it one. So if you believe in something enough what's stopping you from taking that leap forward. Open yourself up to, 

New challenges, New goals and say, Today "I Believe".

Fields of Dragonflies.

Dragon Fly I ask, Why do you fly wild and free?. Dragon fly responds if you sit down just for a minute I'll explain why see lots of me. 

We all share a world wild and free, Helping each other as they see me. We fly up and down without making a sound.

Making sure our friends are safe to fly around. Our wings feel like feathers, Our colors so pure, The purple and yellow blend in so well. To hide us from danger whenever it's around.

Now when you see us gather and flying around. It means were peaceful not making a sound. So please don't trap me or put me on a board. Because then the Dragon Fly will exist no more.

The best kind of high is called "Accomplishment ".

In the very quiet moments of a day what do you think about?  How far you’ve come, or how far you have to go?  Is it about your strengths, how weak you are. Or is is about the best that might happen, or the worst that might come to be? Take time and in your quiet moments, pay attention to your thoughts.  Because maybe, the only thing that needs to shift in order for you to experience more happiness, more love, and more vitality, is your way of thinking.

One must always remember.

No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying. You must do this to feel and know what trying to accomplish something on your own feels like it's called 

"Accomplishment

Forget me not.

The 4 corners of my mind they seem so dark. Where's one to go with no words to get out. The sounds that I hear their always near, living in darkness and a mind full of fear. 

Living with "Dementia".

I search to find the words but none is their to write to help me fight the darkness that's taking over my mind. 

I listen real closely to sounds I might understand. I sometimes feel a light touch from a lingering hand. I reach deeper in my mind trying to come to grips. See I have a mind where words no longer fit.

I think I've lost the battle where the darkness will win. The dementia's took over now no one can get in.

"Freedom of Happiness".

What we decide to do with our lives everyday will always be a challenge. Today I choose to live life to the fullest. In the mornings when you wake up you have a choice to Be happy, feel sad, be angry, Maybe depressed and have negative thoughts throughout the day.

I think every person needs to know that to feel the freedom that comes from living you must be able to continue to make mistakes and choices. Today is a good day to choose to feel life, not to deny it but embrace it. 

Be yourself everyday and in the end you will love who you have become. Because only then can you smile and be content to live your life and know the,

"Freedom of Happiness".
