Life Isn't About The Perfect Moments

Yesterday I sent an email out about finding the passion for life,
After I sent that I realized that some people are going to bump up against what I said.
They're going to think things like
"Well what about when life gets hard"
"What about when something happens"
"You don't understand, things are just fucked up"
"Ugh all of this positivity, like I'm going through the shit"
And I love that I always think about the alternative because I use to think that too.
I get it to the core.
I was a true victim for life.
I made it a motto. A staple. I made it my excuse of why I couldn't be anything more. Why I couldn't think differently"
I didn't let myself be happy or create happiness because I told the story of:
"I was abandoned by 2 father figures. I was sexually abused a few times by family members. When I told my mom I was sexually abused all she could say was "okay". My mom never supported me or showed me she cared about me. My sister and I never had a relationship, in fact, I spent most of my life believing she hated me. I had to give up on my sports career at 16 so I could walk by the time I'm 30. I almost committed suicide at 17, I have never had financial support. I was abused in relationships. I was cheated on. I've been providing for myself and doing this thing called life alone. "
I was the epitome of a shitty fucking life.
BOYYYYY did I hold hate, animosity & deep fucking sorrow for this world.
In fact, my life didn't start getting somewhat enjoyable until 5 years ago. I didn't experience my peak of happiness and true alignment in this physical reality until 3 years ago because I was still dealing with crazy life shit.
But what changed 5 years ago?
How did I make the shift of my fucking life to start climbing myself out of the trenches of dysfunction?
I stepped out of the victim mentality. I stopped living by my ego-mind. I faced the odds that were thrown at me and said "okay so fucking what, I can still keep going"
"I can still create a life, even if I come from shit"
I listened to that little thing inside of me that screamed MORE.
I didn't want to live by THAT story I just shared with you,
I wanted to create a NEW legacy for myself.
I even made it official and didn't go by my last name because I didn't want to carry my family's name, I wanted my own.
So I used my middle name to identify myself.
"Anita Amon"
Why do I share all of this with you?
To show you that passion, positivity, expansion, and change doesn't come from the perfect moments.
Life isn't about the perfect moments and you don't have to have the perfect background to make it happen.
You just have to have the will to do it.
You have to stop living in the shit.
You feel the pain and the sorrow, you keep moving despite it because the harsh truth is:
NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE YOU.
So if I can rise from the ashes of dysfunction, oh baby you can too!
