Getting Back Up

Keep your head up

Getting Back Up
https://impalpablelife.files.wordpress.com

Okay, now this article is a continuation of my article about God giving us struggles. The emotions and feelings are still fresh in our bodies. Sometimes you may even shed tears, other times you just feel upset and have to get your mind off it. However, now you’re getting back to the real world. It’s time to get up, brush yourself off, and move forward. However, in this article, I’m going to be talking about how to deal with a death of a relative, someone that you know, or someone that you look up.

This is a tough step because now you have to hide your emotions. Putting on a fake smile to hide the pain that lingers. Especially going back to your routine, and getting back to what you do and seeing your friends or coworkers. You start to look for motivation. Whether it’s quotes, pictures, hobbies, or walking in nature.

Again it’s not easy but really you have to live your life and not let this distract you. Okay, distract isn’t the best word, but you have to stay focused on what you’re doing. It’s okay to think about what could have been especially if that person was young and your best friend. It is very difficult, however, this isn’t the end and I know you will see them again. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest and is a precious gift from God. Sometimes things go awry but again God knows what he is doing.

Some people actually do a good job coping with this others do not. There’s nothing wrong with that it’s just how you are. Even though this may seem so bad that it clouds your day, I can guarantee that they are looking over you. Even if it was a relative, they are forever with you through your family. As of now all you can do is remember them and keep them in your thoughts and hearts to help keep their legacy alive.

Life can be very rough, but you have to keep you head up every step of the way. Everything will be fine in the end. Like I said God will always be with us and guiding us through this journey called life. He will never let us down a different path nor will ever steer us wrong. He loves us so much and all we have to do is believe and trust in Him. Especially in times like these, Trust in Him for he knows what’s best for us. As we grow, things change, we may change but God’s love for us will never change.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.
