Feel Good

The longest and most important relationship I will ever have in my life, is with myself.

I came on here earlier today to complain about something.

In all honesty after reading many posts from other people, I forgot what my complaint was about, probably something or another to do with my partner, but what does it matter?

I've realised after reading everyone's posts that there are people in the world who have really big problems, find themselves in really dangerous situations or are struggling so hard with the very basic needs in life.

Yet here I am, sitting at my computer, bored one fine sunny afternoon with nothing to do with my time, other than log in here and winge about something or another in my life that isn't even worth my time.

I am alive, I am able, I am healthy, I am young, I have time on my side right now to do whatever I wish to do, right this moment and rather than sit and wallow in my own self pity and use up all the energy I have complaining about the things that are not right.

I'm going to use it instead to start making the things right, that I want to be right.

Whatever if it that I enjoy doing with my life, surely is what I am meant to be doing with my life.

I can't stand anymore to wallow in this negativity. I can't stand anymore to sit here feeling sorry for myself when I know millions of people in the world are raking through rubbish tips to eat, don't have warm homes or loving people to care for them.

I can't stand to sit here any longer moaning about this trivial thing or that trivial thing when there are people in this world with serious issues, serious problems, problems that actually inhibit them from living!!

I have a life, I have a beautiful life, I have beautiful children and I am full of love, and I am not going to waste my time or my energy on negative thoughts anymore.

Its time to get positive, it's time to get pro active, it's time I began to take control of my life and choose the paths that will lead me where I want to be, so that I can feel happy, so that I can feel successful, so that I can feel positive every day, so that I can sieze today for what it is, with the sun shining brightly through my window, so that I can feel Good!

I'm logging off for today as I am away to feel the wind in my air, and the air in my lungs, I am taking today and I am going to feel happy, alive and Good!

And I hope you do too!

Have a wonderful day x

Good post

After a couple of years on MN, there is a couple of things I realise about myself...

  1. I am essentially selfish and have high self-esteem. This means I would not tolerate anyone treating me badly.

  2. If I am completely honest, the way I prioritise the people in my life is like this...top of the pile is me, second is the kids, third is DH. A happy, secure mother is a good mother so I treat myself well

  3. I am lucky to be married to a wonderful man who treats me, and the others around him, very well indeed.

  4. my father was/is a shit (undx mental illness/emotional abuser)...but I congratulate myself that after a bit of a rocky start in early adulthood, I have defied the path I could possibly have taken

    That is all folks x

CuddlyBubble, that was brilliant - reading that this morning has already made my day. Shame the rest of it is going to be spent at my desk but I've got the long weekend to look forward to
