the little engine that could

I want badly to move forward and onward and upward in life. I’m sick of the rut I have been living in. This is why I’ve decided to stop posting funny pictures and music videos for a while. Instead, I’m spending my time reflecting, learning, living.

I was reading an interesting article tonight about self-acceptance. I think this is pretty good:

Pleasure and joy are highly underrated and beating ourselves up highly overrated. Flip it! Cultivate the opposite.

To move on, I must forgive. I’ll never forget, hell no, but holding onto such intense bitterness is absolutely killing me. Letting go is not only okay, it’s essential. I need room to breathe.

I’m getting there, a tiny bit at a time.

Freedom is what we do with what’s been done to us.

More to follow.
