Stress Free

| Marisa Rae

Lately I’ve been focusing on myself more than I ever have before, and by doing that I had to make some small changes in my daily life.

Firstly I increased my water intake, I used to not drink a lot of water and on two different occasions I’ve been to the doctor and they had to put an IV in me so they can re hydrate me. I wasn’t much of a soda drinker, but I’m a huge coffee drinker and I had to cut back on that because I noticed coffee would make my anxiety rise. Now, I drink about 5-6 bottles of water throughout the day, and I’m always refilling my cup with water at work during my shifts. Along with controlling my portions sizes when it comes to eating, and in taking more fruits when I need something to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Secondly I take my daily vitamins every morning, when I got blood work done last year my doctor told me the iron in my body was very low. So, I wanted to make sure I got the vitamins I needed, and I know I’m not old but I’m also not as young as I used to be therefore vitamins is a must for me now. I went onto care/of.com, they have you take a quiz about your body, and what you’re looking for in terms of what you need for your body so in my case that was for sure iron. They send you a monthly supply of the vitamins, and there’s no shipping fee.

Lastly, working out a little more. I’m not trying to be all muscular but currently I’m at the heaviest weight I have ever been in my life, and now I’m starting to get back to the weight I was once before.

While going through all this I’ve noticed I sleep better at night, and my anxiety doesn’t exist anymore. A lot of my stress has been lifted from me and now I feel like I’m living a stress free life now. Take care of your body, because you only get one body.

Deep Affection

| Marisa Rae

Meeting people is something everyone does. But, coming across that person that is just different from anyone else that you have ever met, not everyone can do that.

Anyone can make you feel emotions but it takes one special person to really bring more out from you than just those feelings alone. They bring out the real you at the same time, no one should ever feel like they have to hide how they really are around their significant other. Be around the one that makes you forget the suffering you’ve been through, the one who brings sunshine on your most cloudy days.

People like that don’t come around everyday, and if you’re able to find that person early on in life, you’re very lucky because for some they may have to wait years until they finally meet that person.

If they make you feel some sort of way that you’ve never felt before, that’s Deep Affection. A strong, beautiful feeling but also can be terrifying. Feelings can get stronger as time goes on, and it becomes so strong you don’t know exactly how to handle it. You’re not the only one who would feel how strong they are because I’m sure the other person will feel the same way as you do. Together the two of you can carry the weight of those feelings. Attachment can happen, but don’t fret away from it. Let what you feel take over because it won’t do you any wrong, only good will come out of it.

Follow what your heart and mind tell you to do. Nobody else has the right on how you should live your life, that’s something only you can do for yourself.

Look back at the memories you’ve with this special someone, don’t you want to make even more memories with them?

Being Used

| Marisa Rae

As you have read from the title, I have recently felt what it means to be used. It gives you a tight feeling in your chest that just makes you start to feel sick, and it takes awhile for it to even start to fade off. If I start thinking about it too much it gives me a little anxiety, but I have to remind myself that the person that used me doesn’t even care, I’m not even a thought in their mind right now.

After venting to my friends about the situation, including my blog friend I’ve made on here (@thesimplypowerful.com) although I try not to hate anyone nor do I encourage anyone to hate anybody at all unless it’s for good reasoning. But this situation, I can’t help but feel a type of anger towards this person. I have been able to come to terms with these feelings I now carry, and that’s okay because I know I didn’t do anything wrong therefore I have the right to feel this way.

You should never let someone make you feel less than what you are, they don’t know you, only you knows YOU. It has taken a lot of thinking mentally for me to able to sum up my feeling, but after getting all that out the way I view this as a lesson learned, and I can only hope I never go through a situation like this again, but that’s just life. You live, you learn.

Also, don’t let the feeling of being used make you feel stupid, you had no control over what was going to happen, and no one can tell the future. Never let someone that doesn’t even have a huge part in your life affect you like they have been around you for years.
