What
am I grateful for? It shouldn’t be such a hard question to answer,
but looking into myself is always a bit hard, it’s a mess in there!
I’m
grateful for food – I just love it. I’d eat all day, I’d become
a whale but who cares? It’s so delicious – for my friends and my
family, who always support me but most importantly they love me for
who I am and they don’t want to change me, I’m perfect as I am –
a weird, a bit of a control freak, sensitive, loving girl in her 20s
with a black and gold soul.
Something
that I’m grateful for that might surprise you is all the bad things
that happened to me; people usually only want to forget and move on
but I found a way to give it a new purpose, I turned it into a
reminder.
There
so much pain, violence and hatred in this world so looking at it I’m
actually very lucky for my life, but I did get hurt and I did suffer.
A
resolution for this new year is to look at the brighter side of
things. I usually find the good in people but ironically I’m
extremely pessimist when thinking about my life and myself.
This
is going to change, starting from this post, where I won’t tell you
about my sorrows – it’s supposed to be a cheerful article after
all – and how they’ve made me the person I am today.
We
all have our bad moments – life, right? – but how do they affect
us?
Throughout
the years I’ve become stronger, mostly thanks to those dark
periods.
They’ve thought me not to care about what other people think, to be proud of myself and to accept all my flaws.
They’ve thought me not to care about what other people think, to be proud of myself and to accept all my flaws.
I’m
grateful for those persons who told me that I wasn’t worth enough,
that I wasn’t pretty or smart or funny.
I
am pretty, smart and funny, I don’t give a damn of what you think.
I’m
grateful for the person I am today because I learned to follow my
dreams and passions, to work hard for what I want and not to stop if
I meet a bump on my way.
Thank
you to those bullies because now I know I’m survivor. I didn’t
beat any serious illness or I didn’t go to war but I did beat
prejudices and malice.
I
may not be perfect, but you know.. Perfection is so boring! I like
to push myself beyond my limits, prove people they’re wrong and
dream a lot.
So
no matter what people tell you, be thankful for them because it’s
because of them that you’ll get stronger and better.
And
who cares about what other people think in the first place? You are
beautiful, smart and funny.
Turn
bad things into reminders of what’s beautiful about you and the
world that surrounds you.
I’m
grateful for my blog because it pushes me to be more creative and it
inspires me to new, original and unique ways to bring you good
content.
I’m
also grateful for whoever reads my blog, which you can visit at

– see haw I casually put it there?
Thank
you so much to Sarah for giving me the opportunity to spread a little
love and I hope I’ve inspired some of you to love yourself and not
to care about those people who can only judge.
With
much love,
Samantha
