Moving forward (just keep swimming)
Moving forward (just keep swimming) Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming.... You think that's just Dory the fish being herself...but it's actually a great<b> philosophy. </font></b>When you're weary, your tired, and you can't see to keep going on...just keep swimming is a great way to keep moving forward. Even when bad things happen, you have to keep moving forward or you will be stuck in misery, pain and sorrow. I've had a painful past. I think all of us have had problems. But how you overcome them and keep moving forward...well, I'll be honest, there have been times I've wanted to curl into a ball, cry and moan, and just want to stay there, forever. But you can't live life like that. Another line that really make up my<b> philosophy... </font></b>"That which does not kill you...makes you stronger." -Frederick Nietzchie(?) (my favorite intro of any movie from Conan the Barbarian... As of the past couple of years, I owed over 9 grand in debt to my ex regarding back support payments. I asked her that once I got back to work, I would slowly over time pay back the money I owed her, once I could get back on my own feet and get a solid job. Well I got a solid job last year. And I've been feverishly doing what I could to pay her back, piece by piece. As of today...I will owe her no more in back support payments. I pay her the last 182 dollars I owe her plus today's normal support payment, and then I'm back to regular support payments. I'm free of one of my biggest debts. YAY! LOL! Plus, I'm a firm believer in being an active father, and one of my duties is paying what I owe. Plus I want to be there for them when I can. And today...I'm no longer owing my ex money. Which means I don't have to hear her tell me "Where's my money you owe me?" I'll still have to pay regular support, but I'll gladly do that. I hate owing people money. HATE IT. And now, I'm free. Why? Because I just kept moving forward. I kept on focusing on my goal. With that said, I now have a NEW goal...get my credit card debt paid off in full. If I can do that, I'll be finally able to start saving some money for myself And I hope that can be done by the end of the year. Speaking of moving forward...the two women I was texting...well...one of them is gone. The other...well I don't even think she's seen my text yet, because she hasn't even replied back. The one that did however told me she didn't want to meet up this week. So I asked when and she replied back that she didn't know. I'm sorry, but with all do respect...that's not going to cut it. So...I cut her out of my life and I'm moving forward. One cannot be stagnant in life. You have to move forward, or at least move on. Even if you are moving sideways...the goal is that if something or someone blocks your path, you keep moving so you can find away around it, and keep moving toward your goals, whatever they may be. If you are reading this and you're down in a rut, just know that others are struggling too. And most importantly, Just keep swimming... |

Boy do I hear you with the Credit CArd business. Mine has been all tied up in medical bills when I had no insurance. I have managed by playing the roulette game to not have many that charge interest. That's all going to go away VERY soon. You are so right- you have to keep going forward and not stagnate (Virtual Symposium Group) use Virtual Symposium Group
