Hello out there,
I'm not very good with words and have decided to challenge myself to write down my feelings, thoughts and anything that inspires me. I've been looking at other peoples blogs looking for ideas how to approach mine and i have to say they all look rather intimidating.
I have been thinking of writing a blog for a while, but wanted to finish my university course before i took anything else on. I actually finish a week tomorrow which i cannot wait, just my oral presentation left to do which is stressing me. I have to present it over the phone as im working as a ballet dancer in a foreign country. I had a dumby run this evening which to be honest was a disaster.
I love my little sayings, positive poems, anything to get me through life and coming out the otherside smilling. I find it lonely living in a country with little friends and no family (and i am extremely close to my family). Ballet is a competitive sport and really it is hard to tell who you can trust. I found this little poem called...Have positive thoughts and always "hang in there" written by Collin McCarty. I'm beginning 2010 with a mission that anything is possible if you put your mind to it, and if i ever doubt myself i will read this poem to inspire me once again. Some might think it is stupid and thats fine but if it helps you as it does for me well thats great. So im finishing my first ever blog with Collin McCarty's words.
Difficulties arise in the lives of us all. 'What is most important is dealing with the hard time, coping with the changes, and getting through to the other side where the sun is still shining just for you.
It takes a strong person to deal with tough times and difficult choices. But you are a strong person. It takes courage but you possess the inner courage to see you through. It takes being an active participant in your life. But you are in the driver's seat, and you can determine the direction you want tomorrow to go in.
Hang in there.. and take care to see that you don't lose sight of the one thing that is constant, beautiful and true: Everything will be fine- and it will turn out that way because of the special kind of person you are.
So...beginning today and lasting a lifetime through- hang in there, and don't be agraid to feel like the morning sun is shining...just for you.
Good night
Annax
