Resilience

I want to see the good people. I want to believe they always have your best interest and that they will always rise to the occasion. I want to be positive versus jaded and negative. However, when people prove their true colors, how can you not be disappointed and frustrated!?



Maybe I had a heavy dose of "naivete" as a 20 yr old. Maybe too many experiences and too much of life's more tragic moments have now splashed cold water on my face. But the reality of life, competition, and the mere fact that NOT everyone has good, pure "intentions" is constantly being brought to life.



But you know what!? That's okay. Because I am okay. I am determined to be RESILIENT. I have had to bounce back on a much grander scale over much larger issues. And disappointments do make you stronger, they do push you to go further, to innovate and take your mentality and projects to a whole other level. Kanye's "Stronger" is pounding away in the background as I write this ;-) It will be this week's theme song!



So here is to disappointments; to believing people the first time they show their true colors, to knowing that no matter what they do, I will be okay, because I am determined to be resilient. And when you can innovate and re-invent, well, there is no stopping me then!



And here is also to the true, the genuine, those with with beautiful souls and pure intentions -- you know who you are, I adore and appreciate you EVEN more each day. Sometimes you have to detox to get back to a pure state and this with a heavy dash of resilience is what I plan on doing...
