When Life Shits on You...

Sometimes it feels like when you take a step forward that you're thrown (violently) ten steps back. It feels unfair. As though no matter how hard you push, no matter what you do, life just shits on you from a place you can't even see. From a great, high height comes the rain of feces.

Life happens. 

It knocks you back. It knocks us all back. Those times are the most important to push through. Covered in shit, look toward your goal and keep going. Crawl if you need to. Don't let it push you back. Even if you stumble, keep pushing. 

Follow your dreams. 

Live your life. 

No amount of shit can stop you.

It hurts? Cry about it. 

You're angry? Get mad. 

But don't get stuck there. Push forward. You deserve happiness. You deserve it! Whatever that means to you. There's no point in staying stuck in the past. There's no point in dwelling on what you cannot control.

You control you. That's it.

Keep going.

And if someone hurt you? Someone upset you? Someone is at that root cause of it? Be kind. Let them go if you have to. Wish them the best. Remember that the villain in your story is very often the victim in their own. 

Short but sweet today. Don't forget- you got this.

Wading through shit,

Talia
