You can push through and get through to the other side... YOU CAN. There is sunshine after the rain healing after the pain and Mary after the Jane No but really - on a more serious note For the bulk of my life I chose to be quitter.... I gave up at the first sign of difficulty and/or I gave up by not standing up for myself and allowed others to walk over me... It wasnt until I reached my lowest low that I realized I CAN DO THIS - THIS SITUATION IS TEMPORARY. I had to look my self in the mirror and ask why am I allowing myself to be depressed over situations that will ultimately change... Why am I choosing to give this situation my energy when what I am going through does not determine who I AM! I had to dig DEEP & ask myself the HARD questions [you know the ones that a lot of us run from]... Even now when I find myself getting low - I ask myself the tough real questions - or find my support system to snap me back into reality [we ARE human No one is happy ALL the time - sometimes you have to check yourself or be checked] Dont let anyone get in the way of your greatness your happiness or your destiny... Not even YOU. Remember... YOU CAN. #girldiaries #growthjourney #happywomen #happiness #girlholdmyhand #manifestthatmagic #smallsteps #blackgirlsguide #youcan #justdoit #depressionawareness #selfawareness
