Look to Where U R Going

Serious Tammy for a moment…

I saw this on Facebook yesterday and had to save it for here. Many of my readers have gone through some really tough times. We have all had our fair share but some have been dealt some really rough hands.

I write my blog to help others have a moment in their day to laugh or smile. Many of you know that.

There is another side of me that really tries to help offer inspiration to others and to help them see the good that is often missed in the confusion, pain, hurt, anger, you name it.

We are funny creatures. We latch on to the negative. We do this sometimes to help us get better. To find those weaknesses and move forward and improve.

Yet some hold on to the negative not thinking they are “worthy” of the positive or good things. Usually due to some assholes in their past that told them this garbage.

I find inspiration each day from many of you that are courageous to share your story. While you may not have intended to help others, you do with each post, each comment.

Today I wanted to borrow the saying above and remind each of you (and myself on occasion) that we need to always look at how far we have come, not always at how far we have left to go. Celebrate along the journey. Even a step forward is better than no step at all. And yes, two steps forward are still better even if we have to take one step back at the same time. Sometimes we forget that.

Thank you for sharing your story, and I hope I can continue to help along the way….

Tammy’s Words of Wisdom ~ #1

For a year now, on Facebook I have shared what I call Tammy’s Words of Wisdom.

Basically they are Life Lessons that I have learned through my own life and thru observing others.

My goal is to try to share them with anyone who will listen just in case they might help someone. What makes them pop out? Usually something happening around me sparks their utterance. I have loved how others join in and share with folks how it has rang true in their lives as well.

I’ve decided to begin sharing these Tammy’s Words of Wisdom with all of you. (Don’t you feel special?)   😀

Today I will share my #1 Rule. Above all other wisdom I will ever share, this is the #1 most important rule of them all.

~~~~~

Never Ever Give YOUR POWER to Anyone Else!

No one should ever have the power to make you feel less than who you are or who you can be!

This is YOUR SUPERPOWER and NO ONE Else’s!

~~~~

Ok, raise hands if you thought I was going to make a silly joke like I have been? Go ahead, raise them high? 1,2,3,4,5,6…..well, a lot of you. Neener Neener, I have serious thoughts too! And I”m very passionate about this particular one.   😀

I am dead serious.

Life is full of shit heads. You will run into many of them. And they will do whatever they can to suck the life out of you and take away your power. Do not give it to them. And if anyone has taken it from you, claim it back! I know it isn’t always easy. But trust me….You Are Worth It!

 

I hope you will like my Tammy’s Words of Wisdom. I hope to make this a regular feature as the Wisdom hits me. But this one, is very special to me and I preach it every day.

Words of Wisdom – For Keeping Sanity

A few weeks ago my significant other brought home this sign to hang in our bathroom. I thought, “Wow, there couldn’t be a more perfect sign!”.  So now each day as we brush our teeth, we remind ourselves how to go about living each day.

Too often we get caught up in the drama of our lives. We allow our emotions to rule how we react to things. This sign is a great reminder to focus on the things that matter. To not get hung up on the things we can not change and make a difference on those we can.

For those that can not read it, it says….

God, grant me…

SERENITY to accept the things I can not change

COURAGE to change the things I can

WISDOM to know the difference

I know this is the basis for my finding humor in my everyday life. No sense getting all “twisted” (as my mom says) over things I can not go back and change. Life is about moving forward with the knowledge you gain.

I hope you find some wisdom in these words as well.
