to all you long distance lovers -

here’s to you. there is nothing harder than being miles from the one person you wish you were an arms reach from. there’s nothing more difficult than sleeping on FaceTime instead of sleeping in their arms and losing connection when your wifi sucks. there’s nothing harder than squeezing your pillow when you want to be squeezing them. there is nothing worse than going out with your friends and wishing they were sitting right there by your side enjoying the same moments and making the same memories you were. but these sad moments and lonely nights build the strongest relationships. you learn how important communication is and how nothing can stop you from loving the one person who has broken down your walls. you cherish the moments you have and take in the everything that others take advantage of. you build the most successful relationships and one day the distance will no longer be a factor and your love will never leave your arms. keep pushing until you get there and never let the distance win. love is stronger. you’re stronger.

“We tend to associate intimacy with closeness and closeness with a certain sum of shared experiences. Yet in reality total strangers, who will never say a single word to each other, can share an intimacy — an intimacy contained in the exchange of a glance, a nod of the head, a smile, a shrug of a shoulder. A closeness that lasts for minutes or for the duration of a song that is being listened to together. An agreement about life. An agreement without clauses. A conclusion spontaneously shared between the untold stories gathered around the song.”

7 Powerful Steps to Positive Thinking

1. Seek to focus on what you want instead of what you don’t want: A mistake we tend to make when we’re faced with a problem is to think and talk about it all the time - instead of focusing our thinking on what we want instead.

2. Recognise that every problem comes with a lesson: There’s a lesson to be learned from all that happens to us. We can become a better person - even when things have gone wrong.

3. Don’t believe everything you think: Our problems aren’t as big as the mind tries to convince us. Don’t believe all those negative and self-defeating thoughts.

4. Choose to be grateful in everything: Although it’s hard to be grateful when things are going wrong, we can usually find something we can be grateful for - and the more we choose gratitude, the happier we’ll feel.

5. Let go of your need for perfection: If you try to be perfect in everything you do, you will always feel you’re failing, and you’ll live with constant stress. Do you best – as perfection’s not a realistic goal.

6. Let go of your resistance: Accept things as they are - you don’t always have to change them. Life’s not meant to be a struggle, or a constant battle ground.

7. Seek to be present in everything you do: When you give yourself completely to living in the moment, you’ll find that life is easier - and you feel much more relaxed.
