Gratitude is one of the way to remind ourselves how lucky we are to have been existing in this world.
I love to write three things I am grateful in my notebook almost daily. However, It seemed just like yesterday I had life figured. I had proper sleeping schedule, ate well and everything was just very perfect in my definition. For some reason, I was still struggling with acceptance. I found it difficult to accept that the relationship I had was crumbling and there was no way to fix it, not in the same state as it used to. I began on a journey of denial and escapism that did me no good. I tried all sorts of things to heal myself and so far I have yet to harvest the results. However, acceptance is just one of it.
I was tagged by @mrprofessor to join this 7 days positivity challenge initiated by @riverflows and I think that it's actually a great way of journaling and sharing experiences that I had either my personal stories or my misadventures that turned out unexpectedly awesome.
For today, I want to be grateful that I learn how to accept the past and reality.
Everyone has a past and not all of them are good. There are my past which have shaped the way I perceive the world.I am honestly grateful for all the life lessons I have learned even though sometimes I keep making the same mistakes. I understand that there are things which I can not change. That my reality is the result of my past action and I still have a chance to change the future. I do think it's never too late and that there might be people who can't agree with my way of life. I know that many wants the best for me, I thank them for that, it's just sometimes I am the one having this life, and taste its consequences. There was/are/ will time of I told you so. I have heard that a lot and often it is a lesson. Did I regret? obviously I did but I believe there's still tomorrow.
I think accepting my past is the hardest part of my journey. I was trying to put myself as a victim and living in a victim mentality yet somehow, I keep telling myself that there are things I can't control. It sort of changed the way I see life now. I began to accept there are things I have to let go and can't change. I am grateful for my past that has taught me a lot and my reality that's going to shape the future.
Maybe that's all for today. There's so much I want to say but this migraine won't let me continue.
