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.

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.

A New Day
Today is a brand new day, we can either choose to move forward or get stuck in the past. The choice is ours to make.
But, does it mean that once we decide to move forward we forget the past? Not exactly. We should learn from our past, but do not let it control us. We are shaped by anything that happens to us, but we also have the power to not let us control the rest of our lives.
Sometimes moving past certain moments from our our lives is not easy. They seem to have a hold on us, they seem to want to control us. Never give into those moments, look for the good that can come out of it, and if you see that you need assistance, then look for someone who can help. Never be ashamed to look for help.
Once you are able to move past those moments, that’s when you can see that it’s a brand new day, one that it’s full of possibilities and one that can fill you with happiness. Never forget that you are worth it, never forget that you will be ok.
Never give up and always move forward. A new day will always come.
City and Sun
What do we see when we see this picture? Do we see a sun that is coming out, or do we see a sun that is going away? Why does it matter? Does it make a difference?
It is important to remember that we always should strive to look at everything that happens around us in a positive light. Our mindset is particularly important in either allowing us to succeed or fail. If we give up before even trying, if we only see the negative, how are we to find a way to move forward?
It is easy to give up, we might even feel safer this way, but if we continue until we succeed, we will move forward with inner peace and a happiness that comes from giving it our best. Never give into sadness, never give up on yourself.
Do not be afraid to seek help if you need it. There is no shame in admitting when we need help, it is the opposite, it requires strength to acknowledge it. Always find a way to move forward, never give up and always find the positive around you.
Find the happiness around you and be the best that you can be. Never give and always move forward with everything you have.
Life and Coffee
Life is like a cup of coffee! It can be sweet and soft or strong and bitter. It all depends on what you add to it!
Always look for the add on that will make everything better!
Looking Back at You
What do we see looking back at us when we find a surface that reflects ourselves? Do we see a nice beautiful image, is it full, does it contain small parts that make a whole? Do we like what we see? Do we want to change what we see?
Many times what reflects back to us looks different to what we expect. Hardly any time we see what we would like, but does it mean that we have to dislike what we see? Not necessarily. We also need to accept what is shown back to us, we take the positive and see what needs to be improved. This is the way that we can become better and move forward.
It is also important to remember that sometimes we might think that there is nothing worth about it, but other people might see it beautiful. We have to be careful to see ourselves in a positive and real way. Do not put your self down, but do not think you are over other people. The higher that you think you are the harder that you will fall, and the more painful that it would be.
Always remember that all that we do eventually comes to the surface, both the good and the bad. If this is the case then why not just do good and not be ashamed when it comes out? It is our choice to do it, nobody can choose for us.
Work hard on improving your self and be someone that you will be happy when your reflection is looking back at you.
