user29759self-acceptance

i titled this post “self-acceptance” because this has been the primary root of my problems. i used to have too many insecurities because of my growing up in an unconventional family setting and it has affected the way i handle myself in social situations. im never really the type to be jealous about someone having new stuff, but as i grew up and adults kept on telling me that i’m so poor for not having this and that, i thought that it was the right mindset. then i realized that i am following a deceitful thinking, it doesn’t matter if i don’t have any new stuff, nor if i am not as pretty as the next-door-sweetheart. i am special as i am. i have a family that supports my decisions, friends that turns me to the right direction (decisions), i am liked by many too. when i started accepting that someone will always come along that’s prettier and smarter than me, i’ve come to accept my shortcomings in life and how i can make it to my advantage or as a motivator. when i started accepting life as it is; i started living a peaceful life. material things doesn’t make a person happy but the love of it. my value does not depend on these material things that i see from people. but when i started working summer jobs, i started to find myself accumulating all those that i really liked to get for myself but not in a pressured way. sometimes, when i get a bonus for a job well done, i get to reward myself with the stuff that i really want and before you know it, or subconsciously unaware (if the right term) i am accomplishing my little dreams. i realized that accomplishing my goals is just one of the many things that brings happiness and contentment into my life :) i love myself more today than i did yesterday. 10 months ago

I need to reflect on how it sits with my other goals, but I recognise it as central to a lot of Buddist-oriented thinking that I have been attracted to in recent years. 14 months ago

I often find myself jealous of others; this could be over someone getting a new car, getting a new job, moving to a new city…etc. I think the jealousy comes from the fact that I want these very same things. In reality, my current car is perfectly fine (in fact, I love my car!), I just got a new job (it’ll be a year in Feb) and I own a house so moving is out of the question at the moment (however I do still want to move). I’ve had a pretty decent life so far and I need to remember that and be thankful for it. 18 months ago

forbiddenriceThe more you love what you have, the more you receive.

Read The Secret and The Power of Positive Thinking. I believe that THEY have a lot of useful and good things to say. I want to be more like that not because I’m selfish, because I know it is true and I’ve lived in misery for a long time for no reason! I used to think that dreams were something that were so far out of reach and unattainable, now I know that it isn’t true. My dreams are HAPPENING! 21 months ago
