24 hour Pity Party


24 hour Pity Party



In life we are giving hardships.  In today's economy we are face with constant and consistent pitfalls.  The recession we are in is a prime example.  People are losing their jobs and homes at a growing rate.  At times it seems like we are facing more pain than joy.  At birth the universal sign of discomfort or dis satisfaction is to cry.  We cry at the first sign of pain or eminent danger.  Growing up some people continue with that same coping strategy to deal with everyday struggles.  As women it becomes second nature for us.  When we were children and we cried, our parents or guardians would come feed us, play with us, change us, etc.  Someone else would come to our rescue.  They would do their best to try to help us figure out the problem and work to find the solutions.

But now as adults we no longer have that person or people around us, guiding us through the process.  We have to learn to do things on our own.  Learning what to do after you cry is the skill set that separates the girls from the women.  This showcases how we resolve the conflicts and/or setbacks we encounter in life.

Simply put We work.  BEAST MODE NOW ACTIVATED!! Meaning we get off our Asses, dry up them tears, and find the solution ourselves.  Give yourself 24 hours to get right and that’s it.  Your life is now saying last call so its time to sober up and get moving.  What more will change if we keep crying?  How will the conflict be resolved?  If you recently lost your job and rent is due.  Hell Yeah!  Cry let it out!  But while your crying is you’re rent being paid or a job being found.  NO! So yes ladies and gentleman it is ok to cry and throw that pity party but just know that when its all said and done its up to you to decide where to go from there.

  1. That's true. Personally I have to give myself time to be in pain. I will tell to myself and God 'I just need a minute. I'm hurting' but I can't stay in that hurting place. I look around and people who stay there miss out on life and love. I think the problem that people have is transitioning from one state to the next. Good post.

  2. I agree with all of the blog but I believe that when parents and adults solve our problems for kids or they convince kids to accept their solutions to problems then parents are teaching kids to depend on other people to solve their problems. not that adults and parents should not provide advice or support but they should allow kids to come up with solutions and choose the one they think is best that way kids grow up with a habit of making their own decisions, so as adults they don't look to other people to solve their problems.
