    As a human being I am passionate about life and all living creatures. I don’t watch the news. It saddens me. Some wars we will never win, it’s the harsh realities of life. At the end of the day, we all stand for something. Being closed off from negativity that doesn’t serve a purpose for my soul is the way I protect my spirit. Many times it’s the way I cope with any hurt or adversity I face. My closest friends know this about me and never push.
    We seem to know more about celebrities lives than we do about our planet, our family members and/or our neighbors. We seem to care more about the value of a dollar than we do about humanity as a whole- on the real, I love money. It smells so good, although I am beyond cognizant that the core importance in life cannot be bought. Not friendships, not a close knit family, not love, not loyalty, not time and certainly not life.
    I don’t know if my “radio silent” copping mechanism is really the best way (for others) to get to a positive place, but it works for me. I know when I need a time out.
    As we all go through struggles, learning curves and wins in life- remember your journey. It builds you, your character. I am not perfect -never portray myself to be, but one thing is for sure, I do my best to be a decent human being. Many times I fall short- many times I exceed my expectations. At the end of the day we all have a choice about how we want to live.
    I hope that who ever reads this, takes time to self evaluate, recognize your manageable flaws, do things in life that you’ll never regret, find your peace and happiness, but most of all, I hope that if you ever see any type of injustice, don’t be an observer. Stand for what’s right, believe in something greater and it’s ok not to know what that is. Knowing takes work. It takes rewiring your brain to put yourself first in an effort to build your confidence, to balance out the good with the bad. It takes years of repetition to refine yourself to your personal satisfaction. We all are in this labyrinth together. Some of us will excel in life and some of us will be content with living at a comfortable pace. Whatever you choose, make sure it’s what you want. Don’t judge people for their short comings or errors, those are their lessons, at the same time be cautious of the company you keep.
    Keep your heart open, no matter what you’ve been through, the truth is, love is the reward of living. You are your own composer. Be grateful, don’t take any thing for granted – one day you’re going too look back and realize those “failures” built your solid foundation. Don’t litter and don’t waste food. (Lol)

    • Sandra, It sounds like you are very self-aware and you care so much about the world and the people in it. Simply making the choice to be a good human, and every day do the best you can is quite admirable. Thank you for sharing this inspiring piece, and thank you for being part of The Unsealed. <3 Lauren
