sulk = when someone refuses to smile or be pleasant

Today I have a major case of the "ughhhs." All I want to do is watch Everybody Loves Raymond and sulk. I have no idea what I wish to sulk about. I have no reason to sulk. It's just that every now & then a day or two like this come out of nowhere. It seems like I'm walking around with a huge cloud over my head. Like a personified version of those cartoons. You know what I'm talking about? Yup. That's me the past two days, folks. I hate it. So I'm going to make myself snap out of it, because I hate being this way. And if that doesn't work, well I'm going to lock myself up in my room away from humans so they don't have to endure this nonsense that is my mood...

But my good friend Finn said something brilliant today over Facebook: (He'd kill me if he knew I was sharing this, but whatever. He doesn't read here or my twitter. Fewf. ;)

"I'm eating a cold pizza in my kitchen, but it's delicious," he said. "You know, sometimes life is just like this pizza: you like the taste, so you have to bite it even though its cold. Chew it and it becomes tasty." 

For some reason this actually made sense to me after the laughter. Because really, he's right. In some weird, Finn-way, he's right.

As per usual.

what you deserve//thought catalog.
“You deserve to look for love, if that’s what you want, and be ready to accept it when it comes your way. You might find yourself overwhelmed and even briefly in disbelief when you realize that someone actually loves you for who you are and wants nothing more than to be with you, but you should be able to embrace that unconditional caring with your own. You should wrap your arms around them and cover them with your whole body — flesh, bone, the ugly little cracks and scars that they can’t stop kissing — and know that you are a good person, who is worthy of such joy. You deserve not to question every person who gives you a compliment or tells you that you’re wonderful, not to wonder if they have some ulterior motive, or if you are somehow the victim of an elaborate prank. You should realize that you are worth loving because you are ready to love back."

“Don’t forget - no one else sees the world the way you do, so no one else can tell the stories that you have to tell.”-Charles de Lint

Words from Wise Women: Maya Angelou

Words from Wise Women: Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou's writing not only inspires, but consoles and humbles. She has this way with speaking directly to you, when really, you know she has never met or heard of you. But still, it feels as though she is sitting next to you, giving you advice and cheering for you every step of the way. From the Civil Rights Movement to her poetry, Maya Angelou has affected so many with her words. She is a writer I admire, and a writer who always encourages us to keep on writing our story.

“How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!” 

“You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody.” 

“The desire to reach for the stars is ambitious. The desire to reach hearts is wise.” 

“Stepping onto a brand-new path is difficult, but not more difficult than remaining in a situation, which is not nurturing to the whole woman.”  

“Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.” 

“My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.”  

“A friend may be waiting behind a stranger's face.” 

“When we find someone who is brave, fun, intelligent, and loving, we have to thank the universe.” 

“I believe that the most important single thing, beyond discipline and creativity is daring to dare.” 

“Living well is an art that can be developed: a love of life and ability to take great pleasure from small offerings and assurance that the world owes you nothing and that every gift is exactly that, a gift. ” 

“We spend precious hours fearing the inevitable. It would be wise to use that time adoring our families, cherishing our friends and living our lives.” 

“The idea is to write it so that people hear it and it slides through the brain and goes straight to the heart.” 

“To be left alone on the tightrope of youthful unknowing is to experience the excruciating beauty of full freedom and the threat of eternal indecision. Few, if any, survive their teens. Most surrender to the vague but murderous pressure of adult conformity. It becomes easier to die and avoid conflict than to maintain a constant battle with the superior forces of maturity.” 

“Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you.” 

“Life is going to give you just what you put in it. Put your whole heart in everything you do, and pray, then you can wait.” 

“You should never make someone a priority who views you as an option.” 

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

“A woman who is convinced that she deserves to accept only the best challenges herself to give the best. Then she is living phenomenally.” 

“To those who have given up on love: I say, "Trust life a little bit.” 

(Trust life a little bit; I love that. Thank you, Dr. Angelou)

empresarios, politicos, trajes... esa gente que ostenta el poder, que siempre va con dinero en su maletin, que no son capaces de mirar fuera de si mismos y de sus maletines.

ESCRITORES, MUSICOS, ACTORES, ... en fin, ARTISTAS,
gente que crea, gente que inventa, gente que PIENSA

keep a hit, stay calm and don't get upset

HAY QUE SABER VER

Hay que abrir los ojos…

No todo es tan malo como nos lo pintan…

Como encontrar la felicidad?

La felicidad y muchísimo mas esta en una cosa que posees tu y todo el mundo, tu “Actitud”

La felicidad esta en ti mismo. Si dependes de las cosas que te envuelven para ser feliz te costara mucho alcanzarla

Recuerda una frase muy simple: “Se positivo”

Cuando entiendas y le digas a tu subconciente que asimile esta frase como ley de vida tu existencia dara un giro de 180 grados.

La base esta en tu mente!

Quieres ser arquitecto? Lo seras!

Quieres ser astronauta? Lo seras y llegaras a marte!

Quieres ser profesor? Lo seras! Lo seras y despertaras esa pasión que tienes en los demas!

Apunta alto! Marcate objetivos y lucha por ellos!

La vida no es lo que te envuelve, LA VIDA ERES TU!

TU MUEVES LOS HILOS DE TU EXISTENCIA, TU MANEJAS TU DESTINO! TU DECIDES!

Si no te gusta algo cambialo, si queres hacer algo, hazlo, pero hazlo ya!

Muevete! Busca nuevas emociones! Vive experiencias!

No te compares con nadie, mejora dia a dia, se humilde y acepta consejos y criticas.

Se generoso y haz x los demas lo que gustaría que hicieran por ti.

CONFIA EN TI MISMO Y LUCHA POR LO QUE QUIERES!

LA PERSONA MAS IMPORTANTE DE TU VIDA, ERES TU!

ESTE ES UN MENSAJE DE AMOR HACIA TU PROPIO SER ....

QUIERETE, Y MUCHO, PUES EL AMOR HACIA TU PERSONA ES LO QUE TE HARA LLEGAR LEJOS

TU......

ERES....

CAPAZ......

DE TODO :)
