rising from the darkness
December 12, 2011
for the last 8yrs I’ve been through a lot.. leaving a damaging relationship, the entire breakdown of my family, huge financial problems, losing the love of my life, an anxiety/depressive breakdown and someone close to me dying of cancer…. but…I’ve come though the other side, mended my broken family, got the love of my life back & we’re stronger than ever, released my financial burdens and found peace in myself.. I’m proof that you can overcome anything, and that after many years of thinking the key to success in life is wealth & career success.. I’ve discovered that it’s not.. many people I’ve met with a lot of money are the most unhappy people, and in fact the key to success is happiness & finding yourself.. if you can achieve this you can feel an overwhelming sense of peace & almost smugness, I have a warm beautiful home, only small but perfect, I have just enough money to pay my bills with a tiny amount left for a bit of fun and nice food, I have a beautiful relationship built on trust, respect and friendship, a family who may be different but who love each other despite all the trauma.. and I can look at myself in the mirror and smile :0) so people strive only for your own happiness, be brave enough to do exactly in life what you want to do, don’t ever say “I should do this” or “what will people think” but stand up and say “this is me, these are my rules and I’m playing this game of life for myself”… I hope someone will get hope in their darkest times that things will shape out in the end, but only you can solve the riddle to your own happiness… :0)
