Moments We Live For

By Halston Victoria Quinn -
Sitting here with someone I love and making memories. Going on dates, eating food, going to the spots from our childhood dreams, and watching movies that make us smile. These are the moments we live for. Changing the lives of children daily. Never wondering "Hey, did I make someone smile lately"?  Being a role model, hero, and life changer, these are the moments we live for. Thinking about the beginning of my life and how  I gained hydrocephalus and needed to have brain surgery which caused me to have headaches, memory loss, and dizziness. Due to these circumstances, I was premature. However, when I am laughing with family and good friends reminiscing about the good times that made us, I think about how blessed I am to be alive and all of the gifts god has granted me.  
Living life and taking names, these are the moments we live for.     
Having family time, going to the movies with friends, and going for walks on a breezy day, are the moments we live for. Sit down and have a talk with someone you love because you want to. Tell them you love them. Take a break from the world of electronic devices. Quality time is essential because we can have conversations and get to know each other. We can share our thoughts, feelings, and ideas. What matters the most in our lives. These are the moments we live for. Call your loved ones, put your phone down, take a break from homework, cook dinner, or watch television, and ask your loved ones how their day was. These are the moments we live for. 


 



We can always get more money, but we can't get more time. Meaningful moments are priceless. Wake up in the morning and ask yourself "How do I want to be remembered"? "How do I want others to remember me"? When you are spending time with the ones who matter the most in your life, how do you make sure you're creating meaningful memories?

Know your Limitations

By Halston Victoria Quinn -

Are you a relentless individual who doesn't stop no matter how they're feeling? Regardless if you're tired, anxious, frustrated, etc? Emphasis on tired. If you are, I want to talk about recognizing/knowing your own limitations. Not only what you can handle, but recognizing what it is you'll tolerate from others as well.  Have you ever had a lot of your mind and organizing those thoughts felt like an absolute rollercoaster ride?  School? Friends? Work? YOU Can: *Set a schedule  * Take Breaks  *DO NOT TAKE ON MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE ALL AT ONCE Are you an empathetic individual who tends to take on more weight than they should? Do you tend to feel that there are times when you'll care more about how others feel and then leave yourself on the sidelines? *Recognize your limits You can be someone's friend and be there to hold their hand,  but if you know someone who only reaches out to you when they need something and then never responds when you need them, it's

Good Evening and Happy #TransformationTuesday  Life is an unpredictable ride. We won't always be aware of what's going to happen next, and that's okay! The itinerary is all in God's plan. Transform your thoughts from an overthinking view to going with the flow. Yes. Stress can appear in many different ways. Finance , job loss, not understanding something new. When push comes to shove, we see what we're made of!  Take deep breaths and tell yourself , I can do this! Not only have I done it before , but with God , all things are possible! Personally , when I have been put in a situation Ive never been in before  and I feel a sense of confusion or anxiety, I set personal goals for myself surrounding the topic. For example, how to organize your schedule to fit in all of your priorities. In this case I set a schedule for myself so that I wouldn't feel like I didn't have enough time.  What are you going to do today to transform your mindset from Can'

It's good to sit down and reflect. Reflect on what has already happened. Discuss what you're grateful for daily with the ones who mean the most to you.  Input positivity .  Embrace all of the go
