11pm rant: This past week has been rough. This past 48 hours? Has been even worse. With work, with family, with relationships, just in general. Sometimes I think growing up has made me numb. Today, I got off work and was a total exhausted and overwhelmed mess. I decided to go for a drive because what else do you do at 9:30pm when you're pissed? I decided that rather than sit in the anger and get more upset, I needed to do something about it. I decided to go for a drive, buy a card, and drop it off to an old friend who has been there for me and has taught me lots. Sometimes, when you feel horrible about most things, it's as simple as making yourself feel better. For me, making other people feel good has always made me feel better. No matter how low you might feel, you can always make someone else feel lifted. I've always been such a huge believer in that. I tested that out tonight, and again, it calmed me down. Then I got in my car and went for my drive, listening to Oprah's SuperSoul Conversations podcast (if you've never listened, check it out). So I was listening to it, and when I opened my eyes this is what I saw. I just thought it was super beautiful. I know that sometimes life is an uphill battle, and I know that you can get overwhelmed and exhausted. I guess I'm just trying to say that it's okay to feel crazy for a second. If making someone else feel good makes you feel better, then do that. Do whatever you need to do to pick yourself back up. Be vulnerable if you need to be. A quote from tonight's podcast stuck out to me: "Daring greatly means having the courage to be vulnerable. It means to show up, and be seen. To ask for what you need. To talk about how you're feeling. To have the hard conversations." - Brené Brown. Alright, rant over, have a great night everyone. 💚 #supersoulsunday #supersoulsessions #daregreatly #brenebrown #oprahwinfrey #badday #goodday (at Caledon, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpTTKexgJcNY87lzCpo9Ow87RL1_2DIahL2rKc0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4zy85p5v7cwc
