Oddly Me

TODAY I LEARNED: Kangaroos can’t walk backwards.

I know, it’s been awhile. What can I say? I love to procrastinate and make myself question all of my actions which then leads to doubts, fears…..anyway, we won’t get into that.

Instead, I want to jump right in and talk about how yesterday, a lady was having trouble getting the water she needed from a high shelf in the grocery store. I helped her out and she accepted my help. That little act of kindness struck me with realization. I haven’t been focusing on the good in the area. Good people do still exist, albeit, few and far between. Also, how long as it been since I helped someone out like that? I feel like it’s been quite awhile. These moments are simple and we don’t tend to give them another thought after the day is done, but it matters. It really does matter.

That tiny act of kindness goes a long way for you and the other person. I know this doesn’t need to be said…actually, I feel like it does. Kindness is overlooked nowadays.

We live in a world where being kind is considered weak on so many levels. What happened to us? Kindness isn’t weak! It’s the farthest thing from it! Sure, I can understand how people would see it that way, but why has this become such a norm?

They say nice guys finish last and I really do beg to differ. Nice guys, (and girls), are the epitome of inspiration we should be looking to. Our world is hungry for some nice and it’s time we attended the feast!

I’m starting a new job. It’s terrifying and I wish that incessant need to overthink would stop rudely interrupting my bliss…

These past two days have been so healing. I’ve needed this. I loved all the things I experienced today. From the ship deck interior of the seafood place we ate at, to the beautiful sky, clouds, and trees that were displayed across our view like a midday painting. It was a beautiful time. I’m going to try and make a point to have more days like that. Also, try to spend more time with my grandmother. 😊

A few other things include organizing my daily routine. It’s been out of whack for too long and full disclosure…it needs some work. But that’s where the new writing comes in. I’ve also established a new writing schedule which should help me in my quest to finish my story and also keep up with blog posts. They may not pop up every day, but I will try my best and that’s all I can do.

I’ve decided to really change up the way I write. From now on this will not only be bits of advice, but personal blog posts about the days I’ve had, how I’m feeling, and well…you get the gist! I don’t want to hold anything back at this point and honesty is the road to walk.

I can’t wait to take this on again. Writing every day is something I have fallen out of. But I’m jumping back in. No more dipping my toes in the shallow bits! I’m ready for focus and resilience….so let’s see where that takes us.

I hope you have a beautiful day. 🙂 From my heart to yours,

Blessed Be )o(
