If you cannot be positive, atleast be quiet! -Joel Osteen OMG.....Sometimes I'm in the company of such NEGATIVE people that it makes my skin crawl. But what I've learned about the negativity is that its coming from a place of HURT! You can't see anything positive because you haven't seen anything positive. And not only do I send my condolences to those people but I also extend my helping hand. I understand that things have been rough but they have to first acknowledge that and afterwards look for the silver lining in the cloud. Whatever it is that you have been through, YOU SURVIVED! So lets just start from where you are right now. If you continue to speak the negativity it will soon come into existence, is that what you want for your future? All the negativity you spew out is a cry for help, I'm listening and I want to help in any way I can. The question is DO YOU WANT THE HELP? Are you tired of living this way? Are you ready to address the issues you've never even said outloud to yourself? The only way to move forward is to STOP looking backwards. Let go of the pain & anger because you SURVIVED it! Decide what are you going to do now and let the people who genuinely love and care about you HELP you! And trust me we want to because we already see you making an attempt to help yourself. I know its easier said than done but I am living proof that IT WORKS! I DON'T LOOK LIKE WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH. I'm not ashamed to share my experiences because I HAVE SURVIVED!!!! I could not be the woman I am today had I not had those experiences and I can't help the next woman survive her struggle if I don't share them! *We ALL Need Somebody To Lean On*
