Where you are?

I know exactly where I should be right now. It’s here. And I’m supposed to be exactly as I am. Right now. I should have done all the things I’ve done - all the mistakes, all the accomplishments.

Life is a journey. It took me here. It took us here. And where we are heading- we don’t know. But life does. There is a greater power - in whatever we believe in we must do so. We got to keep the faith. The faith in what we believe that everything is planned for us.

Sometimes its not smooth sailing and blue skies - its going to be a hell of a bumpy ride. Rocks may get in your way and clouds may hide away your sun. You may need to climb another mountain to be able to dance on the roses again. To see the blue sky.

Just like the weather, life changes too - unexpected. You just got to keep moving. We were born here as we are. For a reason. To make the most out of it we just got to follow our hearts, follow our instincts.

You can’t change your destiny, you can only affect it by making small everyday decisions, that leads you trough the journey you are meant to travel. Your attitude is what makes the journey special or totally useless. Its’ you. You and your heart. Follow it. Feel it. Cherish it. Cherish every moment.

And you realize. You are exactly where you want to be.

The thin line between real you and social media you

We have Facebook, Instragram, Twitter – and what else? The list off social media apps is nowadays endless. We can kik each other, friend each other, follow each other. All trough one unliving screen. What happened to meeting up with your girls and have a chit-chat over a cup of coffee or a really tasty glass of wine? No need to worry about a face-to-face akward moments anymore – you can just pop open your chat on the world wide web-world and type anything you want. But you will never see the other persons face, his/her reaction to things you wanna say. How well can you really know then?

Couple weeks ago I saw a friend by accident and we ended up having a really good conversation that took hours and hours and we couldn’t just stop. It was great, one of the best people I know, with one of the bravest and smartest thoughts I’ve ever shared with. As we talked and talked more and more I had to ask him: ”How you didn’t know about all these things going in my life? They are on Facebook and everything”. And he responsed: ”I deleted my Facebook. And haven’t missed it since.”

I thought wow. Some actually did that. He didn’t need it. Why do we need it? We miss these cheritable moments in our lives that we could really share with someone so we can spend our time Sharing things online. What if no one will press the like button or comment something funny below your post? Some say social media helps our social life to develop. Social life with what? You never know what is or what kind of reactions and thoughts there really are on the other side of the screen, in the REAL world.

Due to our increasing social media act the insecureness and jealousy keep rising higher and higher. First there were the models and photoshop to blame on – now you can take a picture with your phone or camera and edit it the way you want. You can get thinner, highlight the best things in you, make your world and life look so fabulous trough your Instagram pictures and hashtag all the positive, happy things with it. No one’s life is perfect. We become shallow and addicted. We want things we didn’t even know existed. We want people to follow us to, to make our lives look like they are like dancing on roses all day everyday. Even it’s not. And that’s life. No one will ever post a picture with no make up on and hashtag #todayszit or twiit about their bad date or hard time at work. No. ’Cause that’s the real life – but the real friends you have, that you can sit down with to have that great talk that makes you feel better and keeps your mind going on the positive direction.

So why do we need all the follows and likes?
