Life, Love, And the Pursuit of Happiness

Lately I've been thinking a lot about changing my life. I'm at a point where things are just boring and not at all how I want them to be. So, I'm going to be learning how to manage my money better and I think I'm going to make some major changes in my diet. Also, I'm looking for a new place to live and a new place to work.

Sometimes, I lie in bed and think about my life. I picture a girl of average size who likes to dance and sing and just all around enjoy her life. She sits on her porch with a book and a cup of coffee or she sits on the floor in her room practicing yoga and meditating. Her life is peaceful yet exciting, calm and balanced, full of love and joy. She serves her God with her whole life and is a leader to younger girls.

This is who I want to be. But right now it feels like my life is spinning out of control! I am having money trouble, work is so stressful, I feel lonely and my body is nowhere near how I want it to be. My apartment is too small and it adds to my stress. As far as being a leader...well, unfortunately, I've been immature and irresponsible in the past. It's hard to change how I've been and other people still see me as I've been.

But, now I'm trying to change. I'm trying to take charge of my life and be who I want to be. Sounds fun, huh?! Lol.

Well, my peeps, that is what I have to say right now. Until next time I hope that you too will find your life, love, and pursuit of happiness. We all have an "inner self" (it is when who we are and who we want to be intersect) and we must find it and embrace it!
