Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude.” - Ralph Marston
To be without some of the things you want is an indispensable part of happiness.” - Bertrand Russell
Music expresses that which cannot be said and what is impossible to keep silent.
Do not just look at an issue in your life and let it pass on by like it doesn’t effect you. Every issue effects your daily and future life, so be on alert and manage your life in a way where you take care of every thing you can with awareness, consideration, and compassion for others too. Only the person who acts upon solving their own issues knows the way of not committing the same mistakes again and again. Be that person and help others change around you and you will be looked at as a hero.

“Empress of the Jungle” by Martha Armstrog
I miss the days when I had hours to express my creativity in the form of visual art. This was created with ink pens and took hours and hours to create.
The trials of this life will ultimately lead to joy if we patiently trust in God’s plan and discover how to use adversity to grow stronger.
There is No Hiding From the Monster’s Under Your Bed.
“Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win” -Steven King
As a child, I remember checking under my bed and in my closet for monsters before I could go to sleep. In my mind, they were real, and out to get me. Then I grew up, and I have never had a monster, goblin, ghost attack me. But lack of monster’s physical attack does not mean they are not real.
As Steven King says, monsters ARE real, they live inside our heads. They attack us on a daily basis. They tell us things like, “You are not good enough.” or “You are a failure.” These monsters inside of our head exist solely to bring us down. To attack us. To defeat us. It is time to pick up the sword and fight these monsters, keep them from ruining our lives.
But how does one fight the monsters in our head?
- Prayer. God is on your side. Or for those who do not worship a god: meditation.
- Fill your head with positive thoughts. Make no room for negative thoughts.
- Take a walk and enjoy nature. Breathe in the fresh air and enjoy the beautiful creations around you.
- Read a book.
- Take a long, soaking bath (candles, bubbles, go all out) and release the stress.
- Fill your life with positive people: people that bring you up. People that see your inner beauty and encourage you.
Please leave comments on how you “fight your inners monsters”. I would love to hear your thoughts.
For me? This verse in the Bible helps:
2 Corinthians 10:5 “We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”
Normal and abnormal are like night and day. We recognize that they’re two different states, but the exact line between them is sort of impossible to draw
