Thought of the day

I thought I'd try to inspire someone who is going through a lot..because we've all been there. I personally experienced some tough times and I struggled through it, but I managed to look past it all and be positive about all the things that I experienced in my life, because in the end..it is all meant to teach you something. Some people will be a positive influence in your life and some won't, some will stay and some will go. They are all meant to open your eyes and make you appreciate the good and learn from the bad. If someone you cared about really hurt you and didn't appreciate you, don't hate them. That will not get you anywhere, instead, be thankful because now you know that you don't want to be treated like that again,and now you will be able to better distinguish who is worth the effort and your time. Just remember that everything happens for a reason..stop dwelling on the past and thinking about all the "mistakes" you made..they all had a purpose , they were meant to teach you a lesson..remember when you stop learning you stop living a meaningful life..so embrace all those "mistakes" for in the end, they provided you with a valuable lesson.. be thankful for everything that has happened to you and learn to appreciate it all ..everything has a purpose in life..even the negative events as long as you are positive about it and learn from it all..be positive and good things will come to you..believe! If God brings you to it, he will get you through it..Believe Some Quotes I found on Google to brighten up your day!

I really like the last quote because I can relate..until I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis and suffered from really bad inflammation flare up I didn't really appreciate my health. Most of us don't wake up in the morning, being thankful for being able to sleep through the night pain free, that is usually the last thing on our mind. I can say, I am guilty of that because until I was unable to walk and sleep due to excrutiating pain and swelling I didnt truly appreciate how lucky we are to be able to walk with no pain, sleep pain free, enjoy daily activities. I couldn;t sleep without taking medication and every morning I'd wake up with stiff neck, shoulders and pain in my lower back. It was difficult to get up of the bed and most nights I couldn't sleep because my back and neck hurt so bad and the pills would not work anymore because I became immune to them. So, really, we should all be thankful for simple things in life that we usually disregard and don't appreciate it until something happens to use that makes us realize how lucky we are to be alive, and healthy, because some people are not so lucky and are struggling to make it by day by day. And funny thing is a lot of those people appreciate life more than we do. I am not saying I have it that bad , I am just saying that I am thankful for everything that happened because I really learned to appreciate everything that I once had that was a luxury than, but I didn't appreciate it and now even basic things like opening a door knob can be a struggle. So again, be thankful for everything you have, because somewhere out there, people are fighting to survive, fighting cancer, fighting diseases and simply fighting to live and would do anything to be able to have food and water, and to them it would be luxury, meanwhile most of us simply disregard this "luxury"
