It's Difficult, I Know
Life, to me, is how my dad explained it. It's like a horse race, but one of those ones where there are jumps every other hundred yards. My dark spin on my dad's analogy is, it IS like a horse race. You're riding through life smoothly for about 10 seconds, then you hit a rather heart-dropping hurdle. Now, if you don't fall of inevitability, you've succeeded. But every once in a while, the people riding fall off and the horse breaks its leg and the curtains go up. Generally, life is like that for everyone; we smooth sail whilst regularly jumping hurdles and overcoming those hurdles.

Why Doing Stuff on Your Own Is Awesome!
Most of my life, I have enjoyed doing things by myself. I think it stems from when I was in primary school and I would never play with anyone at break time and instead just skip around the playground lost in my own world. Even though I don't do that anymore *cough*, I still like to do things alone, whether it be shopping or going to the gym. Don't get me wrong, I like to hang out with my friends too, and sometimes I do like company, if I go to the cinema for example. What I mainly want to focus on in this post is things that people often do with others but could choose to do alone. I know that a lot of people, particularly girls, always like to have company whenever they do something, which is great and sociable, but in some situations doing an activity on your own can be beneficial (and even easier)! So here are four reasons why doing things on your own can be awesome!

Tsureal Advice
I'd love to tell you how beautiful my life has been. It would make me so happy to share stories of love and loyalty... tales of success, and strength and freedom. I could spread hope wrapped in sweet little lies. Or, I could stroke the ego of imagination and watch the mind orgasm in the bliss of ignorance. But, what good would that actually do?

Spread Love
Negativity. Hatred. Jealousy. Enviousness. Are all things that can hinder you from being who you are supposed to be. Spending all your time looking at what other people are doing and talking about them; then how can you expect to prosper. This is the kind of behaviour that will block your blessings and make your life much harder than it is supposed to be.

When All Else Fails
When you hit a dead end in life and you have lost everything or you about to lose everything, you ask yourself what worse can happen. Many people are faced with situations that make them want to throw in the towel, because they see no hope. But there is hope, challenges are there to make you stronger and sometimes we cannot see ahead of us of what is possible or achievable.

Edging Closer
The wind danced playfully around me, and the clouds seemed just within my grasp. I was alone, saved an occasional eagle or hawk that soared where no other birds dare go. The wind felt cool and soft as it brushed my cheek, and whirled past my ears. No camera could capture the beauty of this place and its magic. I looked down at my tennis shoes and then at the sparse grass around them. Distant deer romped merrily around a small pond. I could barely distinguish them for they looked like tiny dots. Farther east I noticed the most handsome horses grazing together in a large herd. Young foals and fillies danced and dashed after each other, kicking their hind legs up as they went. I bent down and picked up a loose rock and tossed it gently over the edge.

How to Control the Urge to Shop
Recently, I had become a subscriber to the magazine known as Reader's Digest. For those who are not familiar with the magazine they have fun topics such as "Meet Canada's Greatest Pets" and "Can Coma Patients Tell Us What They're Thinking?" When reading this magazine of interesting facts I came across an article that really spoke to me. It was called "The Quest to Buy Less." This article stood out to me in particular, because I have an unhealthy lifestyle of buying too many things that I do not need.

My Toxic Quality
The other morning I made a revealing discovery about myself: I have toxic qualities. I think a lot of us do, maybe all of us, but when you realize the qualities or traits that you may have, it's very eye-opening, and in fact, a very shitty feeling. Let’s look at what I’m talking about.
