Sometimes you just need a pick me up or something relatable.

Your #MotivationMonday Speech Told By GIFs

Feeling a bit under the weather? Stressed? Overworked? Well, here is some motivation to get you through.

1. You know those days where you come home from a long day of work or school?

You are usually left to your thoughts. Well, at least I am, in between the laundry list of things to do, and the thoughts of everything and nothing at the same time.

2. Most people tend to put off thinking in the greater aspects of life.

Giphy

If something is bothering them they put it off, stay busy or maybe they even hyper-focus on something else entirely. I feel like I do all of them in the course of an hour and restart it for the next.

3. Life is very difficult. 

Giphy


I'd like to say that life isn't that hard, but that's not true and anyone who tells you differently is lying. It is painful, confusing, and unrelenting. There are days where you just want to give up, and then there are days where you are so glad to be alive. Those days seem few and hard to find at times. But everything is difficult, right? It's a process to appreciate things when they're good, right?

4. It's a constant struggle to get through the day.

I am constantly plagued with what to do and how to do things correctly, fairly. Over thinking, over analyzing, caring too much or not enough, worrying over everything.

5. They say everything happens for a reason.

Giphy

Whether they call it fate or destiny, whatever suits your fancy. And you know, a part of me truly believes that. I believe there is a reason that bad things happen to good people, that people come into your life to show you another layer of yourself, and that no matter how bad it gets - it could always be worse.

6. This life is too short and precious to waste it on anything but your happiness. 

Giphy

If you are not happy with your life, do anything you possibly can to change it. Whether that be a new career, a new place to live, or surrounding yourself with genuine people.

7. Stop second guessing yourself, stop making excuses.

Giphy

If you see something or someone as difficult, reevaluate their presence in your life to see if it's worth it in the long run. Sometimes, it's your perspective that needs to change and sometimes it's your own fear.

8. Fear has the power to either intimidate or motivate you.

Giphy

It's up to you to choose what is best for you and your conscious. I know myself, I know what I want and what I deserve in this life.

9. Remember, you are what you tell yourself, not what others say you have to be. 

Giphy

I am determined, strong-willed, opinionated, fiercely passionate, and I never give up on anything I believe in. Now, this makes a few things difficult - but I still know in my heart that I am being honest to myself and those around me. What about you?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
