Positive Outlook

Heya!
Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I've had a pretty hectic week at horse fair but I'm back now!
The topic I would like to focus on today is "positive outlook" , this can be having a positive outlook on anything and any situation which is why I love it. Broad topics become more interesting to talk about as they can branch off so easily. You can have a positive outlook on life in general or specific areas, maybe your always positive and optimistic in one area but another needs some work. When we realize where we need to work in our lives to improve ourselves than we can continue to grow. Its our flaws and mistakes that give us room to grow. Now positive outlook can be pretty difficult, I mean we're human so who naturally wants to be positive about a tough situation? Yeah basically no one and for those few of you that do I commend you because that truly is a great trait. For those of us who are not super humans , I would like to really stress the need to be positive. You see when you set your mind to be positive even during a tough time, your mental health will improve as well as your physical health. Emotions take a large toll on the body and each emotion has a different effect. Happiness gives you this burst of energy and a light in your eye that may not have been there before. Sadness takes out energy causing you to be less active, drowsy and maybe even easily agitated. Same thing when your being positive or negative, positivity can lift your spirit and when you think about and focus on the good aspects than you have an easier time seeing the bigger picture. I'm sure you've heard the saying "there's a bright side to everything" or "you just have to find the silver lining" or "the storm comes before the rainbow" if you haven't heard these, you have now. These sayings can be very accurate. No matter how difficult a situation there is always another way to view it or a positive aspect. I wish that i had an example to share with you all but I don't so i challenge you to look into your own life and find an area where you need an improvement in positivity and work towards it, maybe set a goal and see how you can improve your mental health just by making this small change.

Life Boat

  There have been several topics on my mind and heart the last week. So I pray right now that God present them here the way he wants them written and understood. One topic I'm sure I've touched on before is uncertainty, however I feel it is more relevant now than possibly ever. In this world the only certainty we havw perhaps is uncertainty, key words here; this world. As I've mulled this topic over in my mind a couple things have become clear: -uncertainty forces growth of faith. -community and relationships are of utmost importance.  -In an uncertain world and constantly uncertain times, we as humans need Jesus, our rock and savior more then ever before.  -Lastly (for now) we need to be building our boats to withstand rough waters every day even as the water is still so that when the inevitable tsunami hits, the storm of life won't wash us away. This analogy sums up most of the main points, together with those whom we are building relationships, we should be building...

Open Mic

Today I really want to bring the focus back to what I truly believe is worth fighting against. Bullying is becoming more prominent all across our state and country. All we hear about however is the same speech of how bullying is bad and hardly any solutions to stop it. Today I'd like to take a different approach.. Do you have a success story of bullying? Have you been bullied? Or do you know someone who's been bullied and wants to share the story of how they rose above and overcame it? The biggest satisfaction is given to a bully when they see that they have inflicted pain or hardship.. lets work together and show bullies, show the world that we have come out strong. Lets take away the satisfaction given to bullies.    If you or someone you know has a story that you would like featured on this blog as well as "My Journey to Miss Teen International" blog, simply email me @kaylagirl0501@gmail.com All stories will be posted anonymously for the sake of privacy.

Special Trip

Hey guys/ and gals!  I hope you have all had a great start of fall, I just got back from Hawaii last night and let me just say I'm feeling truly blessed! We go to Hawaii a lot since we have a timeshare and as I've mentioned in the past, we attend church on the island. This trip however was unlike any other. I feel like God gave me so many opportunities and opened my mind to a lot of new things, there's so much I want to share with you right now that I hardly know where to start.  When your in the moment , you tend to brush off the little things. Then as you look back you realize those little things were what  mattered the most. I learned so much on this trip and especially about relationships. Both relationships with the people around me at the time and the relationships that were waiting for me to come home. Lets start with what I learned about the people around me on the trip why don't we :).  The day we flew in ,I got to go to my best friends 21st birthday! I fee...
