If you are wondering what I'm talking about, well it's simple, every Tuesday while drinking tea I will be discussing topics that interest me. Basically me giving my opinions and hopefully someone out there agrees with me.
I wrote a few suggestions and put them in a jar, so these topics will be chosen by random. Okay I should say right now, they probably wont always be chosen randomly. Some days I'll see something on the news or a person talking about something that interests me, and I probably won't be able to help myself.
Disclaimer: ALL opinions are my own.
Today I will be talking about something that probably everyone goes through:
Negativity is everywhere unfortunately. It's at school, work, with family, friends, even on the Internet. Basically anyone can be negative.
Now this doesn't mean you should lock up your doors and stay at home. Why should you hide yourself when they are the negative ones?
I remember my mother always told me when I was being bullied just to ignore it. Of course when I was younger I didn't take my mothers advice, I took everything to heart and basically blamed myself. Yeah I know, stupid.
It wasn't until I was 27 that I realised that my mother gave the best advice.
One day I decided that I need to get rid of all the negativity in my life, (this does not mean that I've killed anyone!!). After all these years I've come to the realisation that this is my life that I'm living and I don't need people being rude to me and affecting it.
Get rid of the negative to make room for the positive.
Trust me I know it's not as easy as that, with the help of a good friend and my family, I've become this stronger person.
In my experience, getting rid of all that bad negativity that was surrounding me and opening up to the joys of the world, has made me see life in a new light.
I can finally be myself and not worry what other people are thinking of me. Do you know how rewarding that is? I can also express the things that make me happy openly without getting judged, because basically, I don't care.
Of course we don't want to end up alone, so we end up going through all this pain. I thought this for a very long time, but I decided I rather be friendless then be friends with people like that. That might be sad for most people, but for me it felt exhilarating. It opened me up and in the end I found my best friend who happened to have the exact same interests as me.
I came up with a saying that I think about every time someone says something rude and inappropriate:
This is a short Tea Tuesday, I can touch on this subject on a later date. Or if you want to talk to me about it, just message me in the comments below. I think the best way with dealing with sad moments is to talk about it.
I am now living a life that I want to live, even if it took me a long time.
Better late than never.
