A friend recommended a new type of coffee creamer.
It sounded gross.
I tell myself I will try it.
I am learning to try new things.
Ewwwwwwwwww!
I absolutely HATED it.
I pouted as I paid a million dollars for it. Okay, it was close to four bucks but now I have a 50 gallon monstrosity of nastiness in my fridge who is demanding I finish since I had already paid for it.
In the past, I would have toughed it out because I had already paid the 4 bucks. Yep, beloveds, I would have inflicted weeks of pain/agony from messing up perfect cups of coffee adding nastiness just because I had ‘paid’ for the horrifying coffee crime sitting in my refrigerator. Smh. Don’t judge me. I am learning…lol.
I don’t know why us humans do super dumb things like staying in relationships, jobs, situations that do not serve us simply because we have been there ‘too long’. How long must we put ourselves through torment, er, foolishness because we had been with this person or that job forever?
There is a time and purpose for everything. You may have outgrown friendship from 30 years ago! You and the person may have grown in different directions. There is nothing wrong with missing folk well and growing in a larger/different pot.
Now, I am NOT saying leave a marriage/relationship you think has ‘grown stale’. Could it be YOU the one who is stale? Refresh the relationship. Talk to your other half. Grow together. Love each other and keep it meaning.
I am talking about a job you KNOW you have never cared for but have not taken the courage to look for something new, get the new job, THEN say goodbye to the one that is holding you back.
Please, please, please don’t blow up your life because you are feeling out of sorts.
Oftentimes, God and The Universe are trying to upset your apple cart so you can start asking questions to determine your why and get to doing YOUR why.
Be open to new things.
Just know you don’t HAVE to force down something not to your liking. Just because someone else believes something, find out for YOU if you agree/disagree. Then, keep caring for them and keep it moving. Disagreement does not mean the opposite side is your enemy. Just means you don’t like their coffee creamer. Eww!…lol
trying new things/sticking with my creamer,

Note: Be encouraged. Remember your thoughts/opinions matter. Don’t follow like the rest of the world seems to be angry about this, mad about that. Half the time I don’t think most folks even know what they have decided to be mad about. They have just seen a bunch of folks up in arms and began to yell and scream as well. SMH.
One step.
One step.
One step.
You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Keep on beingβ¦YOU!
