I learned today that finding one thing I want to do, one activity, can help me feel even a little bit better.
Today I learned that there are more important things than a paycheck.
Last night I learned that asking for help is a sign of strength not weakness
@araucarian - There is so much strength in asking for help. It is so strong to not stand alone, but ask for help when it is needed. Realizing that you can't do things alone all the time is one of the hardest, but best thing you can realize. Thank you for being with us! :)
Today i watched The Pursuit of Happyness (yes happiness with a y) and it made me so thankful for everything i have and how my life really isn't all that bad.
Today I've learned that the sun will come back up. It may be dark now, but just let it do its job, not worry, tomorrow is a fresh new day (and can be as productive as I want it to be).
Today, someone helped me through a panic attack while I was home alone and I've never felt more understood. They didnt mind the fact that I was so stubborn.
Today I learned that it is okay to feel upset, even when people make me feel guilty for it.
@overcastkid - Yes, exactly! Being upset is totally okay. That is your choice. If it feels too overwhelming, then you can reach out for help, but you do not need to feel guilty. It is natural and very much acceptable. You are marvelous! :)
I guess one thing I've learned is that the most important thing is the attitude you approach life with. If you go into something saying you can't do it or that you won't do well then that's exactly what will happen. However, if you go into it positively and believing in yourself then you can overcome anything life throws at you. You can't if you think you can't, you can if you think you can.
Only one thing that I learned from chatting with the listener was that you can't really assume that people are thinking what you are thinking. People have minds of their own, I suppose, and maybe they are not necessarily there to make fun or put you down in any way.
This can be rocky, difficult, even to be said scary at times but its how we look at these things and how we deal with them that makes is able to over come them. In the end be grateful for at least one things before you sleep.
