Note: Today was super hard. A Friend told me to get up and eat as that may help. It did. It felt good puttering around and scrambling eggs. The sound of frying ham steak…ah!

Keep being good to you as you go through your hard. Remain joyful. Remember all you have to be thankful for. Beginning with me.🤗😆❤️‍🩹🥰❤️

Wave the white flag.

Wave the white flag on foolishness.

Wave the white flag on anger.

Wave the white flag on hate.

Wave the white flag on pride.

Wave the white flag on apathy.

Wave the white flag on lazy.

Wave the white flag on darkness.

There are enough folk, beloveds, who are actively acting a fool or turning a blind eye to folk who are.

Enough!

I choose love.

I surrender to Love.

Don’t allow your outside to control your insides.

Vertigo has been kicking my tail all week. So much so, it’s a daily struggle to not allow fear, doubt and whatifs to control my insides.

The battle is ALWAYS won in the mind first.

ALWAYS!

This is why the world is desperate to control your inside. Desperate to get YOU to poison your inside with doubt and fear.

When all seems lost, beloveds, remember all is NEVER lost until God says to let it go. Then, and ONLY then, is it okay to turn loose of the rope.

Vertigo, terrible headaches and unpaid bills are all hollering for attention. I told them ALL to shut up.

I trust God. Period. Either there IS God or there isn’t…*shrug*. I trust God. Call me a fool, if you must. Imma nut who is screwed to the right bolt.

HAHAHAHAHA! Nuts and bolts!….Hahaha!!

Laugh at your apparent doom, beloveds. Your circumstances are just trying to scare you off the fence!

Have faith.

Trust that things WILL work FOR your GOOD.

Be encouraged, beloveds. I know. It’s NOT easy. Hard times ARE hard. They are. Yet, they are sooooooooooooo wonderfully beautiful!

Embrace the hard. Yea, it hurts. Yet, we grow with and through them.

In case no one has told you, today: I love you

No reason.

There is no reason you can’t.

There is no reason you won’t.

No reason why it can’t.

No reason why it won’t.

That being the case, beloveds, get out there and make it happen.

Dreams don’t often act on reason. Good thing for us, eh?
