what keep you functioning everyday?

Wow question overload. LOL I keep funtioning everyday becuase I have a greater good to give. If I were to stop then I would not affect positive change on anyone. And I try to change at least one person's life a day if by nothing more than smiling and wishing them well. I fail to worry about anything anymore. I leave it in the hands of God and hope for the best each day. He has brought me this far and will hopefully take me even further. Smiling in a hard situation is easy. It takes fewer muscles to smile than it does to frown. And I realize that there is always someone in the world that has it just a little worse than I do. My spirits are high because I have a great family and a belief that if I allow my self to get down then I am not doing anyone any good. Sure I have days that I am not on the top of my game but I realize the only way to make it better is to work hard and take each day one step at a time.

The idea that my family relies on me is the sole thing that keeps me going. That I really have to strive hard in order to earn for a living because they depend on me.

hi adequee, I think what keeps me going on despite the hardships is that I have faith in God. I know I am nothing without him. Even though sometimes, I feel I am being neglected or abandoned, I still pray on Him and ask Him to make me strong. I know that God loves me and if ever I am experiencing this difficulties, I know that this is just a way of Him to teach me how to face the world. Aside from that, what keeps me going are the people around me. My parents- I am so thankful of them. Although, sometimes they scold me and they get angry with me, I know they only want what is the best for me. Maybe, I am still not that matured to make decisions and somehow I still need to be guided. Then I can also say that my boyfriend helps me to pass also the difficulties in this life. He always try to console me and make me feel I am loved and cared for. And of course, I don't think I also can pass the difficulties without my friends. For me, they are my angels in disguise. I am so thankful to God for giving those wonderful persons for me. I know they serve as God's instruments for me to uplift my spirit especially when it is very down.

Everyday I think of paying my bills, so I need to work hard so I don't have to worry in the future. When I get too stressed out, I rest for a while and I do some meditation, after which I sleep, and I wake up feeling refreshed. In order for my body to function well, I am taking multivitamins and to keep me fit, I exercise. Worrying too much on little things won't help me, so I need to think positively because I know He will help me.
