How Far Away From Home Are You?

Have you been living away from home?

You can get to the point where you realize that enough is enough!

The time away from home can hurt or make you feel like a rock in the middle of everything. I know that from my experiences over the years living in Croatia and being so far away from home.

Life is what you make of it!

The decisions you make affect you in time. Born and raised in South Africa, most of what I learned was about my culture and the close environment. The little conversations allowed me to see my life as attractive and unique.

The rest of the world didn't matter until I grew much older and had a family of my own. When I allowed myself to identify with other people, then I began to see myself differently.

Identifying myself with other situations has allowed me to see other people as normal and that is how I should see them. I think of myself as different and love that difference and know other people do observe me from their different sides and from afar.

Don't be afraid to let go and be your true self. A positive mind gets you through any difficult patch.

Everything changed right there and then, and I accepted my life for the way it has changed. No one will ever know my feelings unless they have walked in my shoes.

Some people couldn't even think of how I managed to live in a foreign country with such a different lifestyle.

I too sometimes find it hard to take in how much I had to tolerate to get my steps going forward.

How Far Away From Home Are You?

Sometimes certain issues remain shallow and repulsive. I try to focus on my priorities.

Some special person part of your life can be living far away, but if that person is not in your heart, you won't miss them as you would the one who is in your heart.

Not everybody would see life the way you do or understand life as you do. It is amazing how most young people see life in comparison with most of the older generation.

Seeing life in your own way only opens the eyes of others to another chapter. Learning is an important part of any person's life. It takes motivation and an interesting mind to move on from hard times.

You can never know what learning holds for you unless you try to learn something new and appreciate it. You can be far away from home, but your true character will always keep you close to home.

It can be difficult to live in the present and the past is not what you should be thinking of.

Live in the moment at all times.

I have accomplished what I wanted on a different level, and my mind is open to all new tricks. I like to be far away from those who don't have anything good to talk about.

It is however sad to be with such people it makes me feel unhappy. I avoid those who fail to help themselves.

When there is darkness look out for that light. The light may seem far from your reach, but that light will show for you in time.

Relationships between any two people are important. People have different views and the way you see life may not be like the person next door.

I felt sad when I had to leave my home but feel good now about the way I have progressed. You can still manage to find good qualities in each other irrespective of the differences you share.

What is a good life?

If you choose to have a good life you will have that life. Be happy and healthy to achieve a good life. I enjoy writing that makes life better each time I share my emotions with my readers.

Writing for me is about a path to understanding oneself. When writing about your faraway life you tend to grasp more of that old life into your new life. You also see life from within and realize what matters most to you.

The need to have real moments of self-reflection and a single mind is to be focused on the balanced moments of real living.

The problem in many lives is letting go of the bad stuff.

You have to let that go. If you keep on dwelling on those negative emotions getting up will be your hardest.

Get away from what makes you feel miserable. Live without regret and have a clear mind of your views. Events occur and pass by like time goes by.

You won't see it all right away. Be patient and persevere and allow yourself to see where your next step will take you. Do your best and avoid the pressure in planning.

Be motivated by greater actions. You can't escape fear or other confrontations. I tried hard to make my life a much easier one even through bad times. I did manage to get my act together.

Life without your loved ones can feel empty at times, but deep inside I know that someone is there for me no matter what goes on.

I feel free and happy in another part of the world.

Far from my place of birth and with the freedom I have at my side, I can go to great lengths to make my plans follow through and smile to make each day my best day.

I don’t ignore what I know is good for me, and I allow myself to read and listen interestingly and with a full mind. My focus is greatly on what makes me happy.

Life can be beautiful in any part of the world. If you choose to go the positive way many issues can be solved without the feeling of a struggle.

Certain problems can flow smoothly if you let them be. If you really want to reach a goal you got to work your hardest. Be strong and up for the challenge. A courageous person always finds a new challenge.

Ignore those who choose to put you down or those who look down on you. Take criticism from others freely and don’t let that put you down.

Believe in yourself to be that positive person. When you think with a happy mind anything is possible.

Before you get upset about hearing what others have gossiped about you, think about how far you have come and what you have become.

The true people in your life believe in you and are there for you. Be confident and know your true self.

Without a goal, you have no sense of direction. Be you and be proud of yourself. Life can be simple if you do it that way. People make choices and sometimes the choices people make aren't what they want.
