happiness
Happiness, defined; things that help you find happiness, keep it, and share it with others.
Little things
Have you ever wondered what it takes to make someone truly happy, to take a bad day and turn it into a great one, to turn tears into a smile, to maybe even save a life? Sometimes, it's the smallest of things that make the biggest impact. You don't need to be rich or famous to make a difference in someone's life. It seems so simple to do yet some complicate it so much. I often wonder when did money and material things become so much more important than feelings and emotions.

The Key To Positivity Is One Big Fat Lie
Let me tell you a story. I was first year university and I was seriously driven to excel at all my classes. I was avid about my first English class, because this was my specialization. Well the first day the professor walked in I knew I was in trouble.

As The Time Pass Everything Become More Clear.
As I reflect on life and COVID-19 a lot of things start to make sense. Survival the fittest really do exist. At this point of my life and age I realize there was no need to be fighting for approval, money, tittle and a place in society. It's all an illusion. What really matters is how you take whatever you have and turn it into something usable. Take the life that was giving to you and create your own masterpiece of art and shape. Some people may start over, some people may continue a great path, some may just differentiate themselves from the life they were given. It all comes down to your choice in life as you get older. There are many important factors that may lead to the type of life you choices you make, such as your belief system, money, and how you view yourself and life.

Clarity
The Brink between infinity and conclusion grows from the pillar of understanding. Sweet melodies of temptation are always ever present to distract me from you. Secular entanglements, whose sole purpose is to drive me to non-conclusive dead ends. Often, I find you stupendously elusive of my mental grasp of comprehension. You become sifter and more cunning the more time elapses, and I have to dig deeper into my psyche for stability. You are almost synonymous with perfection in the sense that components of you can be reached but it's hard to fulfill you at 100%.

Multifaceted
Each person born into the existence of time is created with a vast array of colors hidden within their soul. If you can imagine an artists color wheel. It goes from the whitest white to the deepest of black. In the middle there lies a bounty of colors. Icy Lemon to Sunburst Yellow. Periwinkle to Midnight Blue. Bubblegum Pink to Garnet Red and the colors go on and on.

Dude... Just Keep Pouring
I absolutely HATE when my lips are super dry. You know the type of dry lips shrinks up the skin and leaves you with crusty and ashy lips? Yeah, I hate it so much. So... I’ve discovered (in my opinion) probably one of the best type of chapstick, and that chapstick is "Burt's Bees'. OMG! It works so well and it makes my lips look so hydrated and healthy. Now you may be thinking to yourself "Anthony, why on heaven's earth are you talking about your ashy lips?" If you're thinking that, I don't blame you one bit because honestly, I'd be thinking the same exact thing. Trust me, it'll all make sense as you keep reading. Let's keep going!

Stop Living in Lies and Start Living in Truth
Let me ask you all something. What good is living in a lie? You become unhappy, you get stuck,your hoping of things getting better begins to wear. We all know problems, the lies,the deceit and the ACTUAL truth of it all. But,why is it that we still hang on? For the kids? To prove our families wrong? Afraid of leaving because you feel like you’ll have nothing and nobody? My thing is that if you’re unhappy with something,why stick around? You know it’s not gonna get better. You know it’s not worth being hurt and left broken hearted all the time. You know you don’t want your kids (if you have any) to grow up thinking it’s ok to let people treat you the way you’re being treated. I know, I’ve lived through it. I’ve been there. That’s why I’ve chosen to speak my mind,whatever bothers me, and not let anything or anyone run me over or take that away from me. Someone once took that away from me. Spent half of my life in fear and it was all too close for comfort being around it so much. Now,I’m not so blind and I’m not for the bs anymore. I’ve chosen to live in truth and that’s how I want to stay. No more lies, no more excuses, no more “it’s ok” or “everything’s good. I’m good.”. I’m getting older and I’ve had enough with the bs. I got out of that lifestyle a loooooooong time ago and I’m not going back. I’m not living another moment in a lie or being lied to all the time. I won’t do it. That is why I want to tel you all to stop living in lies and start living in truth. Open your eyes. Start thinking about the life you want for once. What’s right for you. What makes you happy and does it make you happy. Forget the lies,start aiming and wanting the truth. To yourself. To the life you want. Fulfill your dreams and desires without shame or guilt,even when others try to put that on you. You know that the life your living right now isn’t the one you want to live forever. So why even waste the time living it. Because when it comes to time,it’s very valuable. And life is too short to waste it being in a place where you feel endangered,depressed,unhappy and unsafe. We all can’t spend the rest of our lives trapped in a cage full of misery when there’s a life full of sunny days and sunshine out there for you. But,first,you have to stop lying to yourself. Because you know who you are and you know that you do not deserve the treatment you get right now. You are more worthy and beautiful than you already know. You know the dreams and life that you want do not require how you’re living right now. You know they don’t require the people that try to take it away from you out of spite. You know you don’t need that kind of shit in your life. And you know you don’t have to put up with it. Let me give you a little tip my friend told me to do. Take a notebook,write down all your goals,dreams and achievements you want to accomplish to get the life you want. And,then,write down everything that stops you from those accomplishments. It can be anything,don’t be afraid. It’s just you, a notebook and a pen (or pens). Afterwards,compare the two and think about what you need to do to get to where you want to be. That’s one of the first steps towards living in truth. Next step,take some time to yourself. Chill at home all day,take a walk. Do anything to help clear your mind and think about who you want to be. You can become anything and everything you want to be regardless of who or what’s around in your life. Just take a minute and think about you for once. Third step,remove the things that stop you from doing the things you want,especially on your free time. If there’s anything that shouldn’t be taken away from you, your me time and your rights to go places is one of them. Let no one dictate what you can do,what’ you can’t do,where you can go.....let no one have that kind of control over you. EVER. Take my advice. Do all of this,and I promise you you’ll be much happier. It may take a while to be happier,but time to heal is always great. Because the outcome will be better than you think it is now. ☺️

Just say no.
I’m a people pleaser. On almost any occasion I am the first to take on a new project, always up to grab dinner and always willing to pick up others slack. This is mostly because with any job or position I take on I want to do my best. I want to be seen as productive, as helpful, and as a useful member of the team.
