Loss

Sorry it's been a while since I have posted! I have busy working and pursing my dreams.

Yesterday, I took a self defense with Montgomery County & MD State Police. As we were learning the different skills, I had to think about the skills we need for other life survival. We take classes to help us prepare in case we are attacked (God forbid). But how do we prepare our self for when life attacks us?

How do we prepare for LIFE? Do we think about preparing ourselves or are we just waiting to be lunch for our attacker? Do we think that if we don't think about "it" it will never happen to us? How does life attack us? Many different ways.... It could be loss. And I will focus on this, as I am dealing with loss right now.

Loss is many different things, it could be the loss of a job, it could be the loss of your health, the loss of friends, the loss of family, the loss of a dream, the loss of something you wanted, then had to let it go. It could be a simple loss, like an iPod, or a cell phone quiting

How do I prepare myself for when life comes at me full speed, threatening to take me down? I thought about it and came up with a few things.

Prepare yourself by having a strong support of friends. Ones who
Expect that something will happen.
Go with the flow.
When something happens, breathe in, breathe out.
Know that God has a plan, no mater if I understand it or not.
Write. Blogging helps.
Dream of a day when life will be better:)

I would love to hear your thoughts? Comment or email me! :)

Peace~

You are on to something here. But God and religion isn't the answer --it's too easy.

Dig deeper within yourself.
