Puzzle of Life!

Good afternoon y’all! I hope your weekend is starting off great and only gets better moving forward! Weekends provide much comfort and relaxation, which is often very needed and well deserved. I am still trying to get adjusted to this working full-time thing and still maintaining household duties, my blog and anything else that comes my way. Honestly it isn’t easy, but I also think I can handle it!

Over the past week or so, I have been thinking about how much our lives actually resemble a huge jigsaw puzzle. Sometimes we have a piece that fits together perfectly and other times nothing at all fits the way we expect or want  it to. It really is like when you try putting a large puzzle together, but some of the pieces you have in front of you become difficult to place because of their shape and size. We all face the same situation daily when we are confronted with people with different views and behaviors. We may strongly disagree with others point of views, but we are all entitled to our own views and perspectives. As long as these  thoughts do not cause physical and or emotional harm to another it should be accepted. 

Personally I think I am very capable of getting along with everyone and anyone, as long life-is-like-a-puzzle-stop-trying-to-place-people-where-they-dont-fit-quote-1as they are respectful of me and my beliefs. I have never tried changing another person or their views because that is just wrong to do! I feel that if we were all alike the world would be downright boring and we need diversity! I enjoy being around people who are different from myself and find learning about how they view things pretty fascinating!

All relationships and even jobs can be like putting a challenging puzzle together. When you start a new job, there will be some that51accc1426746b8fa9976fe7436086f5  co-workers you mesh well with and others whom you don’t and that is perfectly okay! You really can’t force the pieces of life together, things just fit when it’s meant to be! I have always believed that everything in life happens for a reason and when it is supposed to. Of course I tend to forget this often and get frustrated because I just want things to work out perfectly. I guess that is the part of me that is controlling, but we all have our faults and we deal with them as needed. 

Other parts of life, like dealing with a chronic illness or other difficulties just adds to thepuzzle-pieces-of-life-2-stock-illustration_csp34374889 puzzle of our life. It can be incredibly frustrating and test our strengths, but at the end of the day we can be proud of what we have accomplished. It is so important to never give up and know all the pieces will fit perfectly eventually.

I did try the new Editor version of WordPress, but did not do all that well with it. I will puzzle-piece-quotekeep trying and I am sure I will understand how it works soon. Have y’all tried it yet and do you have any advice for me?

Thank you for stopping by my site today! I always appreciate your words of wisdom and kindness. I am still working on getting caught up on reading and commenting on your posts and should be caught up before the weekend ends. I hope the rest of you day is amazing and you are feeling the best you can! Please never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love❤, comfort and many positive vibes!

My signature heart

❤Always, Alyssa❤

  1. I actually wrote a poem on that Editor thing Alyssa, because I hated it so much! I soon changed back again! Yes life IS a puzzle. For myself, I wonder why I ended up,like I have, so young. I wonder why EVERYTHING had to be taken away from me so that I am totally dependent and hardlyneven anperson any more. I could have taken so much but not ALL THAT. Being in a wheelchair is one thing, but being blind as well! Well, that takesbthe buscuit. I am no use to anyone any more, and feel I have even lost my personhood. So yes, it is a total puzzle to me.

    Regarding different beluefs and sych, I am like you A,yssa. I have my own beluefs but would never try to force them onto anybody else, and I love to communicate with people who believe very differently to me. This hapoens a LOT in WP and I have learned so much and it has been invaluable to me. That’s my ten penntworth anyway.

    Have a lovely break Altssa. I hope you can relax. Much love to you ❤️

    • I am not a fan of the new Editor, but hope I will get use to it someday. You my dear have had so many struggles and so much taken from you. You didn’t deserve anything you went through, but you handle it all with grace. I admire your determination and pure will. I know it might seem like you are no use to anymore, but that I must disagree. You are very useful to SO many and sharing your story gives much hope to continue with life. It is puzzling why you had to experience anything you have, but you are still here and please stay that strong person I know you are.

      I have strong differences of opinions about many things because I am one that believes everyone should be treated equally and I feel strongly that the president is doing the opposite of this. I think those that support him believe WAY different than I do.

      I hope you have a lovely and relaxing weekend sweetie. Stay strong and true to yourself!!!

  2. That is so deep and so freakin’ true. Sometimes things just don’t fit. It’s sad, isn’t it? I too always want everything to fit!! It sounds like your job is going well if you’ve hit it off with some coworkers! YAY!

    New editor? I didn’t know WordPress had changed any! 😮

    I love all the puzzle images!

    • Thank you so much! I am glad this resonated with you. Yes, it is sad when things don’t fit when we really want them to. The new job is going okay, but not great. One thing happened yesterday that made me question them and think more about finding a better fit. I have hit it off with a few people, but I wouldn’t call them friends, they are simply co-workers I don’t mind being around.

      Yeah, WordPress has something called Block something. It is kind of neat, but also a little frustrating.

  3. I totally agree, life is like a jigsaw puzzle, albeit often with damaged pieces & missing pieces too! Perseverance, patience, and never giving up.. eventually the pieces will resemble a more complete, fulfilling picture. I totally agree also with how society should be far more accepting because diversity is an incredibly wonderful thing 🌷
    Hope you’re having a relaxing (or as relaxing as possible!) Easter weekend xxxx

    • Thank you so much for this great comment!! I love what you wrote as well, there are often damaged or missing pieces, but with patience and determination we make it work!
      It is heartbreaking on how not accepting the US has become and I hate it. I like diversity and find many people pretty interesting!
      We are having a nice quiet day at home, which is absolutely fantastic! I hope you had a lovely weekend sweetie!
