-Positivity
Dear Diary,
I see that understanding, faith, and inner energy are the makings of human beings. We are all searching for that one purpose that manifests a certain feeling of confidence and joy. There are many beliefs, thoughts, ideas, and hopes {within me}. As I grow I gain more understanding. The reason my life will be the way it is, is destined to be. The things I am learning about Charmaine are interesting and new daily. My mind is expanding, maturing, and finding itself. On this day, it is taking off at an astronomical speed. torn between what people say, what I've been taught, what I want, and what I believe.

I've noticed it has been impossible to get through life without someone or something telling me how life should go... I will not be unhopeful for my future. I see that I have hope, a purpose, and an inner feeling that there is more to life than humans appearing on earth. But one thing I have learned today, one thing that works, with my mind, my body, and spirit is positivity!
To {and for} me it will be step one! I have felt in the past low. Down. Hopeless and bitter. I recall having low faith in myself because of my situation. Doubtful for the future simply because I couldn't see the way out. Today in my adulthood, [before in the past] I would focus on my downfalls, my low points, my problems, my issues, my mistakes, my worries, my responsibilities, and a lack of knowledge, leading to a lack of confidence and a lack of hope and self success... my inner peace.
I lacked positivity.

I do believe it {positivity} is true in existence and is needed in life constantly... daily. Despite all the turmoil I have faced today, this August 13, 2013, I realize that I remained positive in order to keep from dwindling into "anxiety", uncertainty and stress. When I felt pressure, I noticed that it was something my body needed and yearned for.
Step one to freeing my inner "being", finding who I am, what I want, securing my successes in life is to find, maintain, and key IN-to positivity!

How amazing to have the ability to self-reflect! Earlier today, I was simply flipping through my old notebooks for my media company, Truth TripleX, and happened upon this beauty. I was literally 23 years old making so much sense of the world! Now 31, in a deeply loving and passionate relationship, a mother, a spiritual student (excelling btw☺), and more, I am just astounded by my growth but also how I have always truly been myself. I admit I falter at remembering my own truth at times, but boy oh boy that faith runs deep!
Just know when you are on the fence of life, still, all will be added to you no matter what. No doubt that there IS something greater presiding over the universe that is bigger than you and I, but also part of you and I, and together we make a collective. There is no wrong or right overall, but there is a perfect for you, I promise, just stay positive!
Much love to you and all, Truth.
Love of what you have said here I have felt. Still feel from time to time but getting better every day. Live in the now & find the true beauty in all. Completely beautiful 💞
