when life gets to lifin’ that shit can feel trifflin’. 😒
before you know it, you’re going down like MJB, having the ultimate “why me?” session.
first things first: identify your emotions, sis.
call 👏🏾 them 👏🏾 out 👏🏾! hell, shed a thug tear if you gotta!
then, get ready to choose your next move.
ask yourself: how would i rather feel right now?
how do i feel when i’m at peace? when i am joyful?
what puts a genuine smile on my face?
think on these things to bring forth the desired feeling,
’cause the feeling is only a choice away, fam.
what you’re going through doesn’t dictate how you should feel.
so, your emotions are first responders. they pop up with or without notice.
however, how you feel is your conscious response to all that’s going on.
feelings turn your tragedies into triumphs + your shut outs into show outs.
they help to shape your reality.
since how you feel determines your state of being, understand that how you feel toward your circumstances helps to write your narrative.
doesn’t matter what may be happening around you,
how you feel about it is the game changer.
so, flip the switch —
you can choose to experience calm in the midst of your storms, fam.
breathe your way to it.
smile your way to it.
sing your way to to it.
laugh your way to it.
do what you’ve gotta do to find your way through…
because you will make it through. 🖤
be you, be dope!
