Bulletin Board February 2017: Perseverance and Confidence
Perseverance and Confidence
February has been a month of inner confidence and perseverance despite self-discouragement, but also a month of continued change and progress. Perseverance is the one thing that will show your strength in troubled situations and continuous turmoil. The more you push through and work even when you’re tired and dreary, the more you convince yourself that what you’re doing is worth it, then you will always persevere through it. Your power is limitless once you continue overcoming everything that’s placed in your way. Normality might get in your way, negativity might get in your way, self-doubt, self-hate, lack of finances, lack of motivation all might get in your way, but overcoming those obstacles will build someone not phased by downfalls, but someone who stands and faces any challenge.
Bulletin Board January 2017: Control
Control 
Be in control at all times. Don’t allow anyone or anything control how you see or deal with a situation or circumstance. You know how to deal with struggle so allow your experiences to guide your moves and your mindset Despite it getting difficult and tiring, relax and think everything through. Control yourself! Don’t allow situations to bring out anger, bitterness, or resentment. Walk away if you have to. You are in control.
The Girl in the Shadow: Introduction
Here is an introduction to a series of short stories I will write. The Girl in the Shadow is a part of my creative process to grasp and understand what its like to be an introvert and an empath. Two new concepts to me. Also a part of SparklyWarTanks’ Writing to Heal, this writing will be both encouraging, bazaar, fictional, and autobiographical. She is something new to me.
And I tell the story of the girl in the shadow. She sees and feels everything, from the hurts that you feel to the tears that have dried away. She encourages those who are often forgot about and left to decay in their own sad minds and weary souls. She tells the stories of those left behind and outcast.
Shes in the shadows observing. Shes an introvert but feels all that is around her, the vibration of the strangers, the betrayal of friends, and struggles of her family. She’s empathic and can’t help but know the emotions and strains of those around her. An energy she can’t escape. She’s been running for so long, but now she just sits, watches, and writes. She writes down the emotions and hurt, and flips it. She carries with her in silent prayers the promised happiness and hope lost and buried with the dead end situation and crusted forgiveness. She’s the stranger rooting for you and the one who cries when you find yourself lonely. She feels for you when you feel the most alone. She knows how it feels. No one sees her either.
She’s learning what it means to be outside and to be strange. To not fit in. She’s learning what love is, and hate, and fear. She’s learning pain, and grief, and depression and anxiety. She’s learning what’s shes known all her life except this time she sees it in other people.

Postage from my Memory
I See You
I see you
When you cry yourself to sleep because you don’t feel you’re good enough
When you see those around you getting rewarded, but you aren’t
When you’re up all night working, but no one notices
When you do something great, but no one sees
When you were there for everyone, but no one is there for you
When your family eats at night and the house is clean
When everything runs smoothly and as planned
When you feel hopeless and useless because you don’t see what a gem you are
I see you, you’re not invisible
To the unnoticed
To the kindhearted
To the silent blessings
To the hard workers
I see you and thank you
You are appreciated
I See you
