There’s less to write about when there’s less problems or things to complain about in life. I know I want to advocate for survivors of rape, people who struggle with mental health, and cultivating healthy habits in general, but how do I do that without rewriting the same story over and over again? Typically, the most motivation occurs to me when I’m faced with a challenge and figure out how to overcome it. Then I reflect and write about it. But lately, I feel as though I haven’t come across any major challenges. My only, and biggest, challenge currently is financially. I believe my mental health is in a good state. I know I can work on being more outspoken and standing up for myself in public situations. I’m great at speaking up when I know the person I’m confronting, but when it comes to public situations and strangers, I almost never confront strangers. Partly because a stranger is not worth the trouble of causing a scene, and partly because you never know what someone is going through or what they’re capable of. Part of life’s challenges is being faced with different social situations in everyday life. We won’t always know how to deal with a new situation and it takes time to learn how to address it or confront it. It’s part of life. I hope to be writing more and find ways to share my stories and situations in the hopes of providing insight to others or even to create a discussion of how I could have better handled a situation. We’re not perfect and I’m not going to act like I know all the answers. I’m just learning what works and doesn’t work and maybe, hopefully, that saves time for others. Humans are flawed, but that’s not a bad thing. Perfect does not exist. Don’t aim for perfection, because you’ll be chasing a lifelong idea that isn’t real. Just aim to be a better version of yourself each day.
