Feelings...Seasons...Reasons...

Hello ladies and gentlemen...
I pray you all had a wonderful holiday! I know I did. Busy but good. You know, I've been thinking a lot about feelings and emotions lately. As the holiday season approaches, I begin to think about what this time really means and you know what it depresses me a little. Now don't get me wrong, I love the idea of celebrating the birth of my Lord and Savior and I'm really looking forward to my daughter being able to participate in the festivities but on a personal note, I feel lonely and empty. I know with God my life is full and that I'm never alone, but I do find myself missing companionship and having someone to smile and share the good spirit with. I can't believe I'm opening up to you but, hey you are all my family and friends--who better to be vulnerable with?
I'm sharing this to say that if you have a significant other, a beautiful family, etc. Appreciate it. I know no one and nothing is perfect, but thank God for what you do have. Now not to confuse things, I am happy with the conclusions and decisions that I've made. I'm now in a better place, mentally and spiritually. It's just hard when you are used to sharing your life with someone to no longer have that. So with that being said, keep me in your prayers and I will do the same for you.. This post challenge: I challenge you to think about your life and relationships, how you treat others and how others perceive you. Are you doing unto others how you would like done unto you? Are you taking those you love for granted? Until later my friends, keep smiling and striving.. remember God's got your back!

 

THANKSGIVING

Happy Thanksgiving my beautiful people!! Well  I have to say I sat today and really thought about Thanksgiving and the point of it. I wondered  why only one day is designated to show how appreciative you are for God's blessings. Now I know the history behind the holiday and that's not what  Thanksgiving  was initially created for, but let's be honest the things that we are thankful for came from our merciful father so I kind of tweaked the thought a little bit. :-) Well I'm going to let you in on a few things I'm thankful for.. First that God gave me life and made me the woman that I am. I wouldn't trade places with any other woman in this world. Second for my beautiful daughter, family, friends,church, our wonderful troops, and of course all of you and that's just to name a few! 
Now I have to tell you today was a long one! After work, went straight to choir practice, then came home and started Thanksgiving dinner. I am really tired so this post will be short...But I can't leave you without a challenge... Today I challenge you to really think about what you are thankful for and why. How would your life be without  it? Hit me up and let me know your thoughts.... 

LIMITLESS...

Hello my wonderful peeps! I want to chat with you about limits and how I've discovered that I've been limiting myself in a lot of areas of my life. Have you ever been in a situation where you are just unsure of the choice to make because you don't want to make a mistake? I tell you I've been there more times than I can count but I noticed where my lack in taking risks have possibly held me back from some great opportunities. I know it's been a minute since my last post but that was because I was thinking back on my life and how I've grown so much this past year. I want to tell each and every one of you... DON'T LIMIT YOURSELF or get in your own way of greatness! I realized that I was afraid to take a chance on just life period. Now I'm not saying throw caution to the wind, you still have to use your common sense :). It's hard to take a step forward when you don't know which way that you are going, but as long as you have God guiding you remember you can never get lost. I've just realized that so expect to have some good posts in the future...
One thing I'm going to start doing at the end of my posts is challenging you.. so this posts challenge is to really take a minute to think about where you are and where you want to go with your life and see if you are limiting your self in any way. Think about it and hit me back! Oh and DON'T FORGET TO SCROLL DOWN AND VOTE!! :)
