A Curve.

I remember my go-to instinct being to run away or to start complaining whenever I was presented with a challenge or some form of a difficult task. I'd complain as if I were the only person on this planet to go through that.

Hello there, I'm the Earthian.

Something about being the ultimate victim, something about feeling sorry for myself used to be gratifying. It would be my own big excuse for my failures and it would be an excuse I would gladly accept because it was totally in my favour.

But you know, as much as it is nice to complain about how things are not going our way, a nicer thing that I could do to myself is start doing something about my problems to fix them. I mean, yes, sure, not all of my problems are problems I deal with because of my own mistakes, sometimes life isn't fair and I just have to deal with more than just my problems but if I welcome those problems with an open heart and ask it try and destroy me, holding my own territory, it's whole new kind of gratification.

I'm not going to be successful all the time, sure, but if I take in failure, if I learn to handle it as well as I do my victories, I think I'd have actually won something. It's all a big learning curve.

Lots of love, peace.
