Roxanne's Story

Roxanne is from Ashland, Montana. Roxanne's schools include Colstrip High School. Roxanne works(ed) at Boys & Girls Club Of The Northern Cheyenne Nation. Music Roxanne likes includes Wolf Voice. TV shows Roxanne likes include KULR8 News, The Rachael Ray Show. One of Roxanne's favorite quotes is:"Dirty dishes prove I feed my family, a full trash can means I clean up after them, messy floors mean I let my children have fun, a pile of laundry means I keep my family in clean clothes, a wet bathroom means I bathe my kids! So the next time you walk into my house and see a "mess" think twice before you judge. Many people, who find themselves in a good situation, look suspiciously around for the catch. Or they unconsciously brace themselves for the bad that they believe must necessarily follow the good. It's easy to believe that positive fortune is too good to last and that happiness is always fleeting. But waiting for the other shoe to drop or for the rug to be pulled out from under your feet isn't healthy. Always focusing on the negative possibilities can put you on edge and even invite those negative possibilities in. While you remain hyper vigilant, you are doing your best to protect yourself from uncertain events. It becomes more difficult to enjoy happiness and success when you are on guard against what's coming next. There are, however, steps you can take to confront a tendency to focus on the 'other shoe' by confronting your feelings and discovering what is standing in the way of optimism....Expand for more
The fear that happiness is temporary is often rooted in the subconscious mind and past experiences that have fostered a pessimistic outlook. We are often afraid to trust in our own potential or feel guilty when our lives go too well because we don't believe we deserve success. But the truth is that we do and that there is no reason that a boon must be followed by a loss. When you find yourself waiting for the other shoe to drop, ask yourself if there is a strong possibility of something negative happening, or if your mind has conjured up the fear that your positive situation cannot last. If your subconscious is telling you that you don't deserve happiness, counter it by reaffirming your worth. The future is unknown, give yourself permission to enjoy the things going well for you right now. It may take time for you to fully believe that you have control over your own happiness and that you can hold on to that happiness without worrying about what the future will bring. You may want to remember that you have more control over your life than you may realize. The 'other shoe' may drop or it may not, but it is your own attitude that will ultimately let you hold on to the result of good things in life, while letting the bad things go.... By: Live Laugh Love If you come over to see us, come on in... If your coming over to see my house, please make an appointment. Keep this going if you're a proud parent and have a happy and healthy family! My motto is: "Pardon the mess...but we LIVE here".".
