APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE

Always show gratitude    Everyday we wake up complaining about this and that-how we wish we had jobs that paid more loving relationships with our partners.We never feel that what we have is enough because we are always in the fast lane,wanting something better. The love and connection that you have with people cannot be replaced by cars,flashy clothes or your job title.It is important to show gratitude even in sadness.Be grateful that joy still lives in you even when you are going through negative experiences.

Some people choose to wear clothes,which hide them from socioety,because of the fear of judgment and others wear next to nothing to show they are proud of who they are.What we wear gives some information about our identity and in many ways just a mirror of our personality and understanding of the world. In todays society,others attempt to mimic others' style of dress when that isn't their preference at all.To a certain extent clothes give us more or less confident in ourselves,thus shaping our personalities for the day.  Wearing a cocktail dress or a pair of sexy heels can make us look more outgoing or willing to put ourselves out there. our outward apperance does influence our inward personality.It is a reflection of our personal traits and charecteristics.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SHADOW

Image
Everyone is a moon and has a dark side which he/she never shows to everybody. Some people mislead the shadow as the dark side .It's not that our shadow qualities are bad,its that we hide them because they do not fit into our picture of who we want to be or what people expect us to be. We consider ourselves to be compassionate but we have a more selfish,sometimes arrogant impatient side.We pride ourselves in our discipline but have secret addictive tendencies. We preach about morality and purity to others but constantly battle with our longing to indulge our senses in every possible way.

Shifting blame to others might be a temporary solution and may assist in getting pressure off for a limited time,but the mistake will usually come back and the pressure will always interfere with the learning process.
