Just wanted to get on here today to give you a little encouragement if you need it. Some days are really hard and you may want to give up….DON’T GIVE UP! Sometimes things happen to teach us lessons, whether it’s how to be more patient or learn something new. We may make mistakes and want to be upset with ourselves when we make those mistakes, but how would we learn if we didn’t make those mistakes or bad decisions? Things may happen to you so you can learn from them and be an encouragement to someone else that may be going through a similar situation. We all need to grow, to learn, and when tough things happen, that’s what we are doing, learning how to get through it, learning how to be stronger. A few years ago I was lucky to get a job I really needed at the time, but I didn’t know a lot about the job and didn’t have a lot of help, so I had to learn so much on my own and it was hard. I was also going through some things at home and there were so many days I wanted to give up, but I didn’t, and you know what, I look back on that time now and I’m just in awe of how much I learned. How difficult those days were, I would just cry every day driving in, but I kept going, day after day. It was not easy at all, but I just kept telling myself, you’ll get through it, and I did. You can too! Be encouraging to others. You know the saying, you never know what someone is going through, so be kind. It’s so true. When I was at that job, I always had a smile on my face, so noone really knew how much I was struggling.
Look at this photo I took over the summer, just so simple but beautiful. So much beauty all around us. Take a minute today to look at some nature. Say an encouraging word to someone, or even to yourself if you need to. You are worth it! Stay strong and don’t give up.
