It is when you accept your defeat which paves to peace, no room for denying and lead to triumphant.
Today’s Thoughts
When in doubt drink coffee, it fixes everything!
The End and the Beginning
Today is the day when the current year finishes, and it is also the moment when a new year starts. This particular year has been an incredibly challenging one, full of surprises one moment after another, full of tears and fears, but also full of hope and light.
During this moment we remember those that we have lost, those that are still with us. We can remember our accomplishments, our challenges, and our life. We can remember how we made it to this moment in time.
As we remember those moments, we should look for the positive that came from all that has happened this year. It is definitely not easy, but positive we must find. We should remember how instead of giving up we moved forward, how we made to this moment, to the start of this new year.
How about this coming year? How do we approach it? Does it mean that all the challenges have disappear? What will or future be? We might not know, but we should not despair. Always have hope, never give up to despair.
Challenges will always be there, but our will to overcome them will also be there. Approach what is coming with a positive attitude, with a smile on your face. Your attitude makes a big difference in your life and in the life of those around you. Be a beacon of light and hope to those that surround you, be someone who shines with a light that overcomes the shadows.
Be Positive
These is the season when you see people excited, celebrating with friends and family. The season of warm and smiles. But, we have to remember that many times this is not the type of feelings that come during this season. Sometimes what comes are feelings of depression, reminders of being alone, of better times.
Especially right now this is true, with road blocks to family and friends getting together to celebrate, to share and have fellowship. Does this mean that we should not have joy, that we should not be happy? No, these are the moments that we have to continue to move forward, to find the positive in any moment that comes.
Remember that happiness starts from within, and being positive is a very important step in order to achieve it. If you have negative thoughts, then your mood will go down and sadness will approach you. Being positive is very important in order for us to be happy.
Having this mindset is not an easy task, there are a lot of external factors that affect us, that can change our mood and our thoughts. Remember to always try to find the positive in anything that comes your way. Find a way to make it work for you, not against you. The more that you do this, the more it will become a habit for you. Make being positive a habit, make being happy your mood.
Once you accomplish that the work is not over. Maybe you know a friend or a family member who is struggling with feelings. Help them, share your happiness, but remember to be gentle. You don’t want to be a bulldozer that tries to fix their feelings according to your will. You are there to help them, but it will always be their choice on accept your help and how to proceed. Be gentle and supportive. Be an example that radiates true happiness.

Happiness
What is happiness? It is different from everyone, but it’s also necessary. How do we find it? With material things, spiritual things, friends, family?
True happiness comes from having Inner peace. But the big question that we all have is how can we achieve this?
The very first step is to love yourself. If you don’t love yourself there is no way that you can achieve this. You can start by thinking about your own life, By looking for the positive even in your darkest times.
Positive thinking is very important. This will help you to reduce your stress call mark to be able to move forward when life becomes hard. By being positive you don’t give up in life or in things that you’re doing, instead you find what you can learn from it, how to succeed.
You are responsible for your own thinking, but this does not mean that you have to do this alone. Sometimes a good ear is all that we need to be able to move forward.
Remember to never give up, to always move forward, Always being positive, always with a smile on your face.
Once you accomplish this you can start to love yourself, to find that inner peace that came bring you happiness. In turn once you have your inner peace and you are really happy you can become a source of happiness for those around you.

Remember
Everyday we need to get reminded
In this journey of our lives
That life is short
What can we do in our time on earth?
Should we be carrying an anger within?
We can choose to be forgiving
Or should we just have to chill out and enjoy the ride
You are given the gift- called life
Are we giving thanks to our creator that we have another day to live?
Our attitude inside and outside
Is exhibited outwardly as we interact with others
Having good feelings within or oneself
Or less judgmental of ourselves
Or not judging at all
If we first kind to ourselves
Most likely, we are kind to others
It begins within
Never underestimate the power of our thoughts
Our thoughts can come out as words or actions
Feeding our minds of words of wisdom, help us enjoy life
Finding happiness in all we do
Encouraging and inspiring others
Our journey will be less disdaining
But worth taking and triumphant.
Always Moving Forward
During these hard times sometimes it becomes hard knowing what to do. We feel overwhelmed with all the information coming at us, coming from the left or coming from the right.
Do we find a corner to hide and cry? No, this is the time to gather our courage, to move forward and not to give up. We must find the inner strength and push forward, overcome any negative thoughts that gather around us. Thinking positive is as important as being positive. You cannot have one if you do not have the other one.
It is ok to remember that we do not have to do everything alone. If we need help, we have reach for our friends and family, the people who are important to us and who can give us the push that we need to be able to move forward.
Always remember that whenever there is a storm there would always come peace afterwards. Always look for the light at the end of the tunnel, always strive to move forward, never stop and look back, never let the past control your future.
Be sure to find the positive even in adversity. It is not easy to do, but by acquiring this skill we will be able to navigate through anything. We will be able to always move forwards.
Never stop moving, always keep moving forward and eventually you will reach your destination. Enjoy your life and become someone who can give happiness to others with your presence
