The 3 P's

Football great, Reggie Bush recently tweeted his "3 P's" to live by:

Prayer, Patience, & Persistence

Amen, Reggie Bush!

These are great philosophies to live by!  I was so taken back by the simplicity and the honesty of this statement.  Three wonderful characteristics to posses.  

Prayer:
Pray daily.  Talk to God.  Don't be ashamed to say thank you for all you have been given, or to ask questions when you are confused about life.  I'm not going to tell you that you have to Believe... you don't.  All I'm going to tell you is that I feel like a happier and stronger version of myself when I've taken the time to share my thoughts with the Man upstairs.  

Patience:
Have it.  If you don't have it, go find it.  Patience is such a virtue to have.  So often we jump to conclusions or assume things before with a situation has time to pan out... or before a person gets a chance to explain themselves... Have patience with people, with life and with yourself.  Things don't always happen as you'd like them to, but that's not always a bad thing.  It could just be that something better needs more time to come together.  Have a little patience, and a little faith.  

Persistence:
Never give up.  It's not a feasible option for you.  What you have and what you want is worth everything.  Don't ever stop fighting for what you think you deserve.  The only failure in life is giving up, not getting up when you fall down- 

So keep praying, have a little patience and NEVER give up on yourself!

Day 14: See above statement ;-)

Love True-
Allison
