She Loves Smiles: little words

I have something for you:

Sometimes in life we feel this annoying, pushy feeling, that’s telling us we are wasting our life. It’s not just a suspicion, it’s because we are wasting our life. We have this guilty feeling telling us: ‘I know I’m better than what I’m portraying myself to be, I’m bound to do something more than this.’

It’s about taking yourself more seriously. The world around us will take you more seriously, if you’ll take yourself seriously. And I’m not saying, taking yourself more seriously in an ego kind of way.

It’s funny to me, that our deepest fears are not found in the darkness, but are actually hidden in the great potential we have. Not the darkness, but the light scares us. And we, as human beings, being afraid as we are, of our own greatness, we don’t GO for it.

We are afraid other people around us will pull us down. But let me tell you something, if you really GO for it, there will always be people that are going to be sceptic about you and will pull you down. There’s always a risk of failure. If you really go for it in life, there are no guarantees of success,

But if you DON’T, I can tell you what you can be guaranteed, that icky feeling deep down in your heart: ‘I’m not going to do that, no, I’m not doing it, I know there’s something more better out there for me, but I’m not making any steps.’

This feeling, this sticky, pushy, annoying feeling, that’s making you feel exhausted, will never end, unless you are able to say: ‘I am going to turn my back on living a limited life, and I’m at least going for a life that’s lived to the very fullest.’ And with walking side by side with God, I will make it through.


tell me, what are you unnecessarily scared of?

hey meid,

Thanks for the comment :). Ik bestel meestal kleding uit engeland en je hoeft niet thuis te zijn als ze de pakketjes afleveren, mag ook iemand anders zijn. De meeste onlineshop accepteren alleen credicard, maar bij asos ook paypal. Paypal kan je gewoon online een account aanmaken, erg makkelijk en betrouwbaar. Mijn credicard heb ik via de rabobank, maar meestal moet je aan een minimale inkomsten bedrag voldoen om er 1 aan te kunnen vragen, tenzij je nog studeert en stufi krijgt.

Succes meid ;)

I completely agree with this post.
If you have confidence in yourself other people are more likely to have confidence in you too.
I certainly have felt the way you describe in the first paragraph; I think this feeling is what pushes us forward.

Thank you for commenting on my blog :)

i am such a planner and i am normally terrified of the future b/c i don't know what it holds. but i am coming to terms with the fact that this mentality is crippling and although i can try to make plans, ultimately God directs my steps.

really, nice message. thanks for posting!

The biggest fear I have is reaching the end of life having made many silly mistakes and, because of this, be without friends. I know that this can seem a little odd to be said. But I think that not having friends to hang out, to laugh and to cry, to hug and to kiss, makes horrible any moment of our lifes.

Spiders, I don't know why, but everytime I see one, even the smallest of spiders, I freak out.
