be patient

i love when i find fun little quote pictures on facebook or pinterest that remind me to be a better person.  I get so caught up in my daily life and stressed and just plane cranky that i'm not always, ok more often than not i'm quite bitchy, especially to those i love the most.  So i am greatful for little quotes that make me smile and remind me to try and be less mean b/c its not helping anything or anyone.

so many of us are good at hiding the pain, from others and maybe even for our own sakes we put on a happy face so that we dont have to think of all the tough things we are facing. Thank goodness for friends.  sometimes i dont need a friend to listen, i need to listen to other peoples troubles and so i can escape from my own for a bit.

im super guilty of this one.  I read a book forever ago called addicted to happiness. it talks about how we become comfortable w/ being unhappy and its what we know so we recreate it in our daily lives b/c its what we know.  i get it.  its easy to be down on ourselves.  if we are too nice/proud of ourselves we are considered stuck up...gotta find the balance...

very true...but actions speak louder than words.  Make sure you tell the people you love they are important to you often!  call your mother!

i battle with this one, stupid people, alot! but i just have to remind myself and sometimes my friends, that not everyone was lucky enough to have parents that gave them common sense like ours did :) so be thankful you were not raised by someone else's parents, you could be that idiot people are talking about....

we all have our battles, battles that are important to us.  they may not seem important to others, or they maybe are bigger than ours and we just dont know.  Cut your neighbor some slack :)  Smiles are contagious :) 

thats all. goodnight friends!
