Becoming Coco

This life philosophy just came to me. I hope it helps someone or at least creates a meaningful discussion.  I think in life it is the small choices that determine who you are. Whether you do wonderful things for the world or terrible is not determined primarily in one big action you take, but the little steps. Great people are not born in a day and neither are Monsters.  It’s those little daily choices you made to say something nice or say something mean, to tell the truth or a white lie, to control your urge for the easy route and do that slightly harder thing instead, that create your path.  These little choices will take you to the place where you can do things you thought were impossible for you. Whether those be to change the world for the better or destroy it, is up to your past decisions.  For example someone who opens a non-profit organization giving free help to patients of cancer is doing great things with seemingly one choice, but it...

Has anyone ever stopped and noticed how our culture promotes this "fake nice" especially in the workplace and especially with women in general. It's like we are encouraged to act like we like everyone as if that is true kindness when it isn't. We are told that a real lady doesn't directly express her thoughts or opinions, but sugar coats everything for others benefit. First of all I don't understand how people can't learn to accept everyone. Even if you aren't fond of someone, it's easy to accept and love them because they are human. Unless they actually do something terrible and inhuman to you or another person, in that case yeah they are a garbage human, but if they are just weird or rub you the wrong way because they aren't just like you and your friends, who by the way were hand selected by you because they are just like you (science), then you can learn to accept and love that person and let them be. Let them be doesn't mean you ...

Forgetting the past is different than letting go Forgetting tries to ignore having thoughts about the past in order to avoid negative emotions that might come with remembrance Letting go is accepting what happened Forgiving those who were involved or to blame  Choosing not to do well in anger or sadness even if the situation allowed you to have a right to feel that way Deciding to take what you can and learn from the situation Or at the very least exciting you would never make the same mistake again Or if it was something that was done to you you can use that situation for good by being an influence and help others You can be a advocate for people who experience the same pages you You can spread important information and support for others who may not be aware You can use the memory of past pain to inspire you to be a better person And to determine what kind of character you want to develop Forgetting never faces the fax and never allows the pe...

I found this great article where a woman shares her experience about "losing" herself in relationships. It made me think. We all want to "lose" ourself in that metaphorical way in the euphoric feeling of love. We love swooning over a new relationship. However, one thing we must guard against is losing who we are in that relationship. I don't know what it's like for men, but I assume they too can have this problem. As a woman I definitely have struggled with this in the past. I have changed or stifled parts of myself in relationships, not just with men, but with friends as well. I never did it intentionally it just happened when I wanted acceptance and certain parts of me weren't accepted. That's a horrible way to conduct relationships and I'm glad I eventually realized it.  However, even if you are not prone to unhealthily changing yourself in a relationship, there is still a certain challenge in balancing one's independence and dependence...
