I used to ignore my own pain.I didn't see it as something I needed to address because I could always find a distraction to get me thinking about something else. it worked for a while, until suddenly I found myself deep in a trench that I couldn't see out of.we experience pain because our body wants us to address an issue. we feel pain emotionally because our mind wants us to just acknowledge that something isn't right.listen to yourself, you'll be happy you did.sending you lots of love and peaaaaaaaaaaace!https://stan.store/thezurkieshow

this is why you feel invisible
if you wait for the applause, it'll never come.we often wait for others to celebrate us so much that we forget why we do things in our own lives. don't get me wrong, being celebrated is a great feeling. I love being told that I'm doing a good job. however, that only feels genuine when I'm working on doing something that matters to me. if I focus too much on how I will be perceived and what it will do for others, I lose track of the essence of who I am.be yourself, be genuine, and most importantly, celebrate yourself.sending you lots of love and peaaaaaaaaaaace!https://stan.store/thezurkieshow

why should you be optimistic when everything sucks
life is suffering.so if we're going to go through hardships regardless, maybe it's worth giving ourselves grace.in my life, I've found the most peace when I consciously decide to look into the positive side of the challenges I face. it isn't easy, but it makes things just that much more better.maybe optimism drives you nuts, but don't knock it until you've given it a fair shot.sending you lots of love and peaaaaaaaace!https://stan.store/thezurkieshow

you don’t have to be okay today
it's time to crash out.whenever I let myself feel the negative emotions that have hindered my ability to feel good about myself, I end up learning what the root of my suffering is.maybe instead of suppressing your frustration, give it the time of day. Sometimes all we need is for our thoughts to be acknowledged so that we can keep moving forward.you got this, I believe in you.sending you lots of love and peaaaaaaaaace!https://stan.store/thezurkieshow

what to do when life falls apart
life never goes according to plan.you can try to push back on the changes, but rolling with the punches allows you to build something better for yourself.just as long as you keep swimming through the trenches, you'll make it to where you need to go. don't hold back, just stay in there.sending you lots of love and peaaaaaaaaace!https://stan.store/thezurkieshow
