Life

Sometimes we need to write as a way of expression.  Something that is about ourselves that is theraputic or maybe we just need to get off our chest.  

I am in no means a professional writer.  I just write down thoughts and ideas that go through my mind.  Helpings others while bettering myself.  Making tons of mistakes and learning "life's lessons"
along the way.  Till my last day, I will attempt to make everyday into my best day.

Today I am sharing notes I have written to myself, being my own therapy at times.  I hope you find some meaning from things from my mind.


Life is full of trials and failures.
Life is difficult.  
Life is full of distractions.
Life creates situations of hopelessness.
Life creates hope.
Life is full of concentration.
Life is simple.
Life is full of opportunities and accomplishments.

Take a look at life to understand those ideas that float by, see if one catches your eye.
Take a look up, because there is only ground when a face is pointed towards the ground.

Does a bad GPA mean failure when you hold a degree?
Does a bad GPA mean a lack of opportunity?
Does a bad GPA mean lack of effort?
Does a bad GPA define me?
When so many others did not try,
When so many others did not cry,
When so many others did not attempt to struggle through with their minds,
Competing with others that had no worries on their minds.
Working at the crack of dawn or late at night,
Still obtaining accolades, internships and honors,
Still being looked up to by others,
Still trying hard.  
Obtaining a degree, 
No one worked as hard as me,
So why would I ever let anyone define me.
A failure because of a low GPA?
I beg to differ.
No one will ever understand the path that was ensued,
Watching others give up due to difficulty.
I have a degree, one that I earned,
Putting knowledge in my head that can never be withdrawn.
A degree merited with an A, B or C, 
Is still a degree.


This last quote is not mine, but it speaks to my own situation.


Have a great day and find a way to inspire yourself.

As Always,

Ali

Good day today since today is Friday!!! I have decided to post some articles to help those of you out there that would like to know how to go about choosing a therapist.  Most men see seeking therapy as some sort of weakness.  For me, seeking therapy was a way for me to find a release and understanding of the events and situations occurring in my life.  I did it on my own.  No one told me to go, no court or person.  I knew seeking therapy was a way for me to have a healthy outlet for the stresses of life, with a professional who would listen to me, while giving me ideas or ways to deal with these issues in a healthy manner. I chose to find a therapist who only dealt with issues pertaining to men.  Someone who understood the issues we go through from personal experience and understands how the male mind works.  That is what I decided works for me.  The same type of therapist may not work for you. I have listed some articles and ways to fin...
