BLOGMAS DAY 2

     BLOGMAS Day 2! So exciting. The days until Christmas are winding down. I’ve been trying to contain my spirit, but today for me was like a flashback in a movie. It seemed like everything that was said just brought up a lot of memories. Some of them were good ones, like getting to travel with my friends and movie nights with my besties, and some of them were bad. From stupid decisions that I’ve made myself, or situations that I let myself be caught up in. I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Whether it’s to teach you what not to do, or what you should do better, there is a lesson behind everything in life. And all day, I was trying to come up with a way to block those thoughts out of my mind. Finally, I realized that I can’t. There really isn’t anything that you can do to make something come out of your head. Once it’s in there, it’s in there. So, how can we deal with unwanted memories.
1.Accept that it actually happened.  2. Deal with it. We don’t have time machines, we can’t go back in time and change it
3. Decide whether you’re going to use that experience to help you or hurt you. To help you, recognize the warning signs. Know what to look out for next time. Hurt you, never allow yourself to be at fault for making a bad decision. 

This is basically what I had to do today. I hope it helps.
