We are always changing, growing, and learning something different every single day of our lives. Who we are today, will not be the exact same person as tomorrow. And as we keep living our lives...we keep changing, and we keep becoming...DIFFERENT......And I love that. I love knowing that when I look back at myself next week, and see who I was right now, I would be just a little bit different, and hopefully a little bit smarter. =) So....knowing that we all change,
and that our lives will move right along with the ticking time...why are we always so worried about the tiny little things that make our lives more difficult then they should??
I know as a girl, I always worry about embarrassing myself, or doing something stupid in front of other people, or sometimes just being the true weird me, and being afraid that someone is going to judge me for it! (I mean..come on! it happens right???...)
I mean, it might just be me, but those are serious legit tiny little things that I worry about all the time, and really, when it comes down to it, those tiny moments that I am so afraid would ruin my life forever, doesn't really actually matter that much..because guess what?? I am going to change, and I am going to get smarter, and those tiny moments that make me blush and think that 'my life is over' would be long forgotten by the time my life is actually over. (thank goodness...haha) So, you might be asking me why does this even matter? Where am I going with this?? Well, to be honest, I don't really know. But I do know that lately, I have been bothered and annoyed by all of those nonsense little things that seems to be crossing my path! Every single time an unplanned event pop up in my life, I just completely loose track of the big picture, and forget that just because one little thing has ruined my day, it has not ruined my life.
My life will change, and 10 years from now, all of those things I have been angry at this week, won't even leave a little dent in my life! I won't care if a car cut me off and passed me on the street, and I won't even remember the cash register guy at the grocery store taking longer then 5 minutes to check me out, or even that random guy on campus that push the door into my face! All of those are little things, and as time goes on, and as I keep changing, and my views becoming different, those small events won't even leave a dent into what my life will become.
Now, I don't want you to mistake that the everyday things that we learn in our lives won't affect us. Because they do. All the knowledge we get, and things we learn will affect us to be the person we will be in the future. Everything we go through shape who we are, but those tiny little nonsense things that we always worry about...well, those don't matter. All they do is make us upset and angry. They don't bring us joy, or teach us many valuable lessons...other then maybe gaining some patience...and well...I guess that is important too..but that is for another day...
So...lets do something different the next time an annoying event cross our paths. Lets remember that no matter how annoying the situation is, it is okay. All you have to do its to get over it, and fix whatever problem there is. There is no reason to get angry because of a stupid comment someone made about us or our family, or us being silly and forgetting something at work or at home...because in the long run..those little things wont' affect the changes we will all go through as human beings.
We are the only ones that can control our future, along with our loving Heavenly Father. Time will always be moving on, and we can't stop it. WE learn every day, and change every day. And that is good. That is part of the joy in life. And we should never forget that. We should be stronger and happier, and not let those little things bring us down...because really...in the long run, they will mean nothing compare to all the improvements and things we have accomplished in our lives...
So I rather choose to be happy and grateful for all the things I have in my life. I am going to try my best next time when something annoying comes along to just be happy, and remember that no matter what it is, it won't change me..it will just make me angry..and I don't want to be angry! I want to be different!!! I am going to try my best to enjoy my life to the best of my ability!!! And I hope you are going to also! Try your best to remember that no matter what happens, things will change, and who we are today, won't be who we are 6 months from now.....so just stop worrying about all those little annoying things, and focus on the happiness of life, and see the big picture! I know it doesn't sound easy, and trust me, it's not! But if you really put your heart to it, and just remember to always keep the happiness in your heart, your life would be so much happier and care free!!! =) Just try it! I promise you won't regret it! And at last, try your best, to be your best! Because as always, I am!!!
