Learn to Play Life's Game



I know of this beautiful soul who has an amazing life. So much has been provided for her, and yet... she feels empty. She doesn't see herself as good enough, pretty enough or skinny enough. She assumes the world hates her because of the mistakes she's made. She's miserable in her own skin, constantly wishing to be someone else. And she's so tired of struggling that she feels that maybe it would be better just to end it.

After all, it would be better to say good-bye to a world that doesn't even want you in it, right?

But here's the thing. Life is a game. And we're all playing it. Our opposing player - the problem you are meant to face and overcome - is a nasty cheater. It stole the instructions, tampered with the game pieces and rewrote the rules in its favor. By shaking your confidence, it's made you think you can't win.

But you can!

(tell yourself that; say "I will win!" out loud. let the world know you mean business!)


You can win! How? By playing the game.

Here's how to play:

I've started this new pledge called "Learn To Play Life's Game". It's really simple and super easy to join - all you've got to do is pledge and paste (a button onto your sidebar ;).

And, um, why should I do this?

You've made it this far down the page for a reason, haven't you? Maybe you have felt like the ways I mentioned above, or maybe you wanted to decipher what I was getting at. The point is, you're reading this right now. And maybe that's a sign.

By pledging you're promising you'll play life's game no matter how hard it gets. Seems simple, right? It is! Plus, by making this promise you get a whole community of uplifting and helpful souls who will be not only be rooting for you, but backing you up as well. Doesn't that sound awesome?

Pledge requirements:

Questions:

How long does my pledge last?

As long as you'd like it to. Personally, I'd recommend pledging for 2015, but you can pledge for six months, thirty days, or even just a week.

So this is where I'm at.

Hi friend. How are you? I hope this post meets you well. Today I wanted to write about this little space. My corner of the Internet. After many attempts to give it a major face lift / rebrand / vibe / mission I figured out that the girl I was in 2012 when I originally started this blog is no longer who I am. So let's start fresh. Hi, I'm Rosie. I am a college student and a creator of many crafts. I enjoy writing Young Adult fiction, playing piano, singing at the top of my lungs, and, above all, making other people laugh. Right now I am pursuing a degree in art therapy, which means my future job will be  helping people express themselves in a safe environment with someone who loves them.  I have tried to be many things on the Internet, from an American Girl doll hoarder to a make-up artist, but nothing has really clicked with me. Not until now. I have always been a Christian. My entire life I have identified as being a follower of Jesus Christ. But the thing ab...

May I ask for your [honest] opinion?

via Alrighty. I recently just completed my one hundredth blog design order [insert celebratory balloons, glitter cannons, and thrown pies here]. ;} And I was talking to my mother about this in the car, to and from the store. Basically, what she said was; "You've been doing your designs for a long time, right? So why don't you start charging for your services?" This got me thinking, and in my eyes, I feel as though charging for my designs would probably make me feel like I'm getting cocky, and too proud of my work, yah know? But I wanted to ask you guys, my honest readers; do YOU think my services are worth spending money on? Like seriously. If you wanted a new design would you choose me, even if it cost you ten dollars? I know most of it is just a matter of opinion. Every designer has their own way of doing things. Their own unique style. It all depends on what the "order-er" wants. I'd like to know if I have the capabilities of giving s...

Room Tour 2019

I've always wanted to do one of these posts. If not for the enjoyment of others, for the enjoyment of my future self to look back on and realize how much my style and space have changed. My door. I think I'm sooo artsy for taping paint swatches to my door. And I actually love how it looks too. I was going for "Starry Night" with my own little twist -- and without the actual paint. ;) This is what my room looks like from the doorway. Can you guess what the theme is? It's funny -- a few weeks ago I was discussing with Kenzie how my room has this coral and aquamarine vibe to it, yet my Instagram theme is focused on yellows and blues, and my actual fashion style is very grungy/hispter/artsy. So it all comes full circle, I guess? Still, I love my room. It's my safe haven. Now come on in so I can give you the full tour... Right as you walk in, you will see my DIY jewelry hanging on the wall to your right. It's quite a balancing act when I ...
