The Best Is Yet To Be

Sometimes I get a little down. I get so down in fact that chocolate can't even cheer me up. It's not because I am depressed or anything like that, I just sometimes get a bit down. I'm human! What I find usually cheers me up is either a good little shopping trip or a little scribble in my journal. Yes, I have a journal. The only reason that I have a journal is for moments where I just want a piece of paper to let all my feelings flow out of me. I highly recommend doing this, it really relieves you of any stress.

In my last journal entry I was talking about my future. I don't know what the future brings and that scares me a little. The fact that we are all going to die and that every one we know will eventually be gone as well, scares me a lot. I start to question the meaning of life a lot, and I don't really know where to start or end. Life is complicated and beautiful but if you don't treat it right, it won't treat you right.

My mum got me the candle in the picture above for when I graduated high school. I never burned it because it doesn't really have a scent, but I love the message on it. "The best is yet to be!" is such a happy and uplifting thought. When you really wonder about what is going to happen down the road, just keep in mind that it will be the best. There will be bumps along the way, but that's life. I think I just have to realize in those times that I get a little bit down, I need to look at myself from a different perspective. I need to realize how lucky I am and how this moment should be happy, not sad. Sad moments make you appreciate happy ones, but if you have too many sad ones then you don't have that balance. Be happy because after all, the best is yet to be.
