Get out of your head and start living

I had a great weekend exercizing, socializing, and having fun. Time off from work was exactly what I needed. Part of being happy including physical exercise, eating healthy, socializing, and having fun.

There is a time for everything. Make sure you schedule an appointment with yourself to exercise and socialize. Life is not always about working. You deserve a break today.

Working with People

Working with people can be the most rewarding and the most difficult experience sometimes. I have been working in the customer service industry for 13 years. I love engaging and interacting with people on a daily bases. Ever person is unique and has different needs. Working with people makes it interesting as it can become routine and mandane sometimes. Building relationships and connections with customers is my strength.

Personally I like to help, support people, and add to their happiness. If I am contributing to society in this way I feel that I and giving to humanity and being fulfilled as a person at the same time.

When work is just work

From my own personal experience I find it hard to separate work and personal life a lot of the times. I spend most of my time working, eating, and sleeping. If I am motivated and have spare time I exercise, socialize and do things that I enjoy such as singing, writing, spending time with children, watching movies etc.

As humans we are all trying to get our needs met. I myself must remember that work is a place to make money and nothing else. Work is not a place to make friends, socialize, find a boyfriend, have fun, and get my unmet childhood needs met. All these other needs I need to get met in order to live a happy and well balanced life must be met outside of work which means time management on my part. I am still learning to create healthy boundaries with myself and others to keep me safe. Havimg healthy boundaries also makes life easier, more peaceful, and helps to build healthy relationships at the of the day.

There all types of boundaries including emotional, social, mental, physical, and
psychological boundaries. It is my responsibility to create and maintain my own boundaries and respect others peoples boundaries at the same time.

There is always learning in life for me whether it is a positive or negative experience. A positive attitude, resilience, and perseverance makes facing life easier. Fun, laughter, and love are just as important as making money and being responsibly. It's always about balance at the end of the day. I have also learned that I am only responsible for my own happiness and health. I must always take care of myself and help myself first before others. Neglecting myself would be a step backwards and will not help me achieve my life long dream of getting married and starting a family.

Emotional Boundaries

When other people project their emotions on to you it is never personal. It's hard to let it go and forgive others when it feels like they are literally dumping their crap onto you. Holding onto that anger is more poisonous than letting it go and forgiving the other person.

As humans we experience all sorts of emotions all the time. We can feel happy, sad, scared, angry, anxious etc. the list goes on. A lot of the times all of us just need a bit a love. A hug, some kind words, a smile or even a kiss goes a long way. We all need some emotional support sometimes. It can be hard to be self reliant, imdependent, and "perfect" all the time. Love, acceptance, patience, forgiveness, a good laugh, healthy boundaries, and understanding are all keys to all healthy relationships.

Las Vegas

vacation awaits me

A new place to explore

Time by myself

All my worries put on hold

It's time to have fun

Maybe I will win the jackpot

It's time for me to kick up my legs and relax

Time for exercise

Time to have fun

Time to think about my next step in life

Time to job search

Time to take care of myself

Time to fall madly in love with myself

Who knows? Maybe I will find the love of my life

Maybe I will just have a good time by myself

At this moment if I could do whatever I wanted and money was not a problem I would........

Pay all my debts off

Buy my own condo in vancouver and move out

Buy a car

Put lots of savings away

Start traveling all around the world

I would keep on writing wherever I am

I would stay connected to those that love me and make new friends and connections along the way

Once I am satisfied that I have seen the world I will settle down and create a career for myself or keep on writing

I love children so I will always stay connected to them

I would make a new life for myself in a new place to call home

As long as I am exploring, experiencing new things, meeting new people, and enjoying life and able to take care of myself I feel I will be happy on my own.

It's time to explore the world

Its time to explore the world

I don't have to live in a little bubble anymore

There is so much out there I need to explore

New things to see and new people to meet

I must never be afraid to be alone

It's time to take some risks in life and see where it takes me

The world is my oyster so I can indulge if I feel like it

I can't wait to jump on that airplane

New things to see and do along the way

There is no need to rush love or marriage

Children and love will come at the right time and place

Until then I will continue to live for myself

I will make new friends along the way

At the end of the day I dom't want to live with regret

I am going to keep on writing no matter where I am in this world

I hope my words connect with others and inspire some along the way

Horray Horray it's a brand new day.
