Getting over it

Kicking all those memories of him or her to the curb. 

Ok. I get it. It's your best friend, your boyfriend, your favorite cousin, someone you trusted....but they betrayed you and left you hanging to dry. So what to do about it?

1. Try to reconcile. If it can be fixed then there's no reason to go crazy. Just relax. It's going to be ok. Pray and go confront the person with what you're feeling...chances are, they probably don't know they did anything wrong. Maybe they'll apologize, maybe not, but if you really valued that person, isn't it worth it to try to fix the problem?

2. Detaching. What if the person just doesn't want to be in your life anymore or just keeps hurting you over and over again, with no regards to your feelings? This is when it's time to detach. You don't need drama in your life. There is too much bad in the world already, it's important that you're surrounded with positive people who boost you up instead of tearing you down. Limit the amount of time you spend with that person. Don't be rude, be courteous and polite, but let it be understood that you won't be treated like dirt for anybody. However, if the person recognizes they did something wrong at this stage, go back to stage 1.

This is when the conversation starts getting rough....

So you've done everything there is and there's just absolutely no way that they'll be a reconciliation? Ok. I'll tell you what NOT to do. I don't know why, but people always seem to make these mistakes.

Social Networking

Do NOT delete them from your facebook, twitter, etc accounts. There's no need to amplify the situation. Keep your fights away from social networking sites. It only makes it worse. Also, don't stalk their profiles. Don't resort to silly things like that. If they want to talk to you, be open to it. If someone is actually trying to hurt you and keeps feeding you negative things about yourself. Block them. Do not hesitate. Block them without mercy and leave it like that.

Old Messages

If looking at an old message makes you feel sad and lonely, delete it. It's not worth it. It's time to pick up the pieces of your life and move on. No time to dwell on the past. Look forward instead of backwards.

 There you go. Some little tips on how to move past someone and make them history. Goodbye for now, see you next week!
God bless! :)

3 Simple Reasons to Smile

I know that life has some ways of beating you down....these could be the usual daily omg. my life sucks moments or it could be the more disastrous everything is falling apart moments. Well when you have moments like these you need to be able to pick yourself up and that's the reason for the post. How do we pick ourselves up after life has kicked us to the curb? One of the best ways to pick yourself up is to realize you have something to smile about. So...leggo!

1. You're alive!!! Yes! No matter how many times life has tried to knock you down, you've always got back up. This time will be no different. You're alive, and that means you're winning...like Charlie Sheen. Sorry, I just had to include that joke. But yes, many people have died, but you're still here. You're still in this race, so make the best of it. Think of the positive things in life. Let's go to number 2!

2.  You don't need a doctoral degree to smile. You just need a basic understanding of the world, everything else is just a plus. So stop undermining yourself and forget all that negativity because you, my dear friend, are one smart cookie.

3. All those happy moments. Remember all those moments where you thought everything was ok, and nothing could ever ruin this moment? Now would be a good time to reflect on those memories. Things weren't always hectic. You had some good times too. Don't forget that. You're way too smart to think life is always a horrible experience. Remember things like getting your first medal in a competition, or graduation, or the best friendships you've had, whatever it takes to get you out of your depressed state.

Tata for now. See you next week. God Bless!
