Try To Make Everyone Happy

CELEBRATE YOU!

You are worth celebrating.
You are worth everything.
You are unique.
In the whole world, there is only one you.
There is only one person with: your talents your experiences your gifts.

NO ONE CAN TAKE YOUR PLACE!

You have immense potential
to love
to care
to grow
to succeed -

if you believe in yourself

It doesn't matter your age, or your color, or your sex,
or whether your parents loved you or not.
Maybe they wanted to but couldn't.

Let that go.
It belongs in the past.
You belong in the NOW.'

It doesn't matter what you have been,
the wrong you may have done,
the mistakes you have made,
the people you may have hurt,
or the people who may have hurt you.

You are OKAY!

You are accepted.

You are loved.

So, love yourself and nourish the seed within you.

CELEBRATE YOU!

Begin NOW. Start anew.
Give yourself a new birth.
Today.
You are you and that is all you need to be.
You are temporary.
Here today and tomorrow is God's.
But today,
today can be a new beginning,
a new thing,
a new life!

SO, CELEBRATE YOU!

from Celebrate the Temporary by Clyde H. Reid, 1972

I’m the opposite. Sometimes it’s too much work trying to help others. You try to make someone happy, and then they turn on you. People can be ungrateful and should be left to their devices.

Last week, there was a person writing a post about not wanting to go on living anymore. I tried to encourage the person to keep on trying, and maybe life will turn around. That person made another post about not being able to express themselves without being judged. I mean, sure, I guess it was cool to fantasize about unaliving yourself.

I don’t feel good trying to be nice to anyone much anymore, especially when they don’t appreciate me. People are stupid, and should be left alone for nature to decide what to do with them.

The fastest way out of the victim cardigan is to help someone else. You also build self esteem that way, but it's important to not tie your entire value to your performance as a helper. (Speaking from personal experience)

I enjoy helping others too
