Dangerous Things

•Indecision

•Loss of hope

•Weakness-not its existence necessarily, but giving it free reign over one's life.

•Negativity

•Recklessness

•Stupidity

•Anger

•Grudge holding

•Self-deprecation

•Ignoring your own needs

Things That Counter Those Dangers:

•Positivity

•Hope

•Faith

•Love

•Trust

•Friendship

•Discipline

•Forgiveness

•Honesty

•Perseverance

How do you shift between the two lists?

You find a reason, "a girl worth fighting for" as it were. 

I have a lot of reasons to keep fighting:

•I deserve it.

•The people who love me deserve it.

•There are humans that I don't even know yet who need me.

So when the going gets tough and you're about to self-destruct, dig down deep, remember your reasons, get off your toucus and go to work.
