Be Blessed

You know it's so easy to forget in life how truly blessed we are. We never seem to see it. We get taken over by the really simple mundane tasks of day to day life. We wake up, we go to work, we eat, we sleep and then we do it all over again. How many of us can actually say they wake up and think: thank God I'm here another day or thank God I have a job, I can pay my bills and buy what I need or thank God I have food to eat. The answer would be not many of us.

I find that I often have a lot to complain about and these things I complain about are so unimportant. How ungrateful am I? I have so many things to be thankful for. My health, my family, my job, my friends. So many things it's unreal. Yet I don't see it.

Today a member of my family was in a car accident. A really bad one but thankfully they are ok. It made me realise; life is precious and life is short. Instead of spending time moaning about what I don't have, how about appreciating the things I do have, embracing life, my life and everything and everyone in it. Live every moment like it's your last. Be grateful for what you have been given. Be happy. Be positive and above all be BLESSED.

Peace x

10 Reasons Why I Hate the Tube

My friends and family all know how much I hate travelling by tube in London. It is one of the hardest tasks in our day to day lives and one of the biggest tests you will ever face. If you can survive an entire tube journey with a smile on your face and not one negative thought about where you are and the people around you, then you deserve 3 gold medals. These are the 10 reasons I hate the tube (and there's probably more). 1. When the tube is packed and people tell you to move down. First of all where do you expect me to move to and second why should I move? I'm quite comfortable where I am. If you want to squeeze up in this teeny tiny space your more than welcome to come and try. 2. When you're sitting on one of those fold down chairs and somebody with a back pack or newspaper gets on and stands over you. Dude, why is your bag/newspaper in my face? Take it off and put it on the floor between your legs and stop reading because if this train jerks forward and you fall on me,...

Double Standards!!!

Don't you just hate them?  Like, people say one thing, either about themselves or a certain situation but it's the total opposite for them, like it's not ok for you but it's all good for them.    The term double standard , coined in 1912, refers to any set of principles containing different provisions for one group of people than for another, typically without a good reason for having said difference.  A double standard may take the form of an instance in which certain concepts (often, for example, a word, phrase, social norm, or rule) are perceived as acceptable to be applied by one group of people, but are considered unacceptable or taboo when applied by another group . Taken from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_standard . I've recently been in a situation where a double standard was applied.  I didn't even realise it at first and the truth is we are all faced with double standards every day in our lives.  For example, people will s...

He said I'm so perfect for him but.....

.....there's something missing. He can't tell me what that something is, just that it's missing. Well if that's the case I'm obviously not perfect for you am I? But that doesn't phase me. I may not be perfect for you but I am perfect for somebody else. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
