I’m doing. Now. I’m living. Now.

I was fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting to upload my video.

I have learned WordPress will not upload a video that is longer than five minutes, unless you go to a higher plan.

I learned I can upload a video much faster on LinkedIn. I uploaded. I have decided to upload some encouragement on LinkedIn every day.

Finding a job in these streets is tough now. Whew!

Since I haven’t found a job, yet, I CAN spend a bit of my day encouraging my fellow job seekers to hang in there.

I’m doing what I can. Now. I am living. Now.

Maybe, just maybe, my words will have helped others to obtain their dream job. I hope.

Be encouraged, beloveds. Until you accomplish your goals, help someone else to perhaps achieve theirs.

Just cuz.😁

Sometimes, you just need a good laugh.

This cracks me up EVERY time.

Back away from my coffee!

Have an amazing day. Look for the great in this day. Scrape out some joy. Scratch out some love and give it away.

Thankful for the hard.

This hard has been super hard.

I’m thankful.

Hard has made my faith super hard.

Hard has made harder days much easier.

I’m thankful.

I shall keep trying in the midst of the hard.

thankful for the difficulty,
Cassandra

Note: Don’t be discouraged. Difficulty has many gifts for you if you will receive them. We are not limited by our limitations.

Stop focusing on the waves and wind. You will make it to the other side of your trial.

It’s okay to reset and catch your breath. 🌊

🌊 🌊 🌊

I’m exhausted. These waves are working my nerves.

I decided to take a break and 🛑 what I was doing. I found myself wanting to force things instead of letting things happen, naturally.

Naturally, beloveds, this led to NOTHING but 😤 frustration that comes from focusing on the 🚪 door and not on what’s behind it.

I stopped by long enough to encourage someone. It’s okay to reset, to catch your breath.

You are doing all that you know. Celebrate your try. Celebrate your want to. Be good to yourself as you move forward.

The way has been slow. Agonizingly so. Enjoy the journey. As I am recovering, I am learning more and more to enjoy as many quiet moments as I can.

I savor the ☕ coffee in the middle of the night when I can’t sleep, wondering how I will make my financial living. This uncertainty is unnerving. It’s unsettling.

It’s during these times that my faith is being tested. Ah, God, ow!

Be encouraged, beloveds. We got this. Rest your mind. The best IS yet to come. Enjoy your NOW. Enjoy YOU now.

More or less. 🌊

🌊. The waves are looking frightening today.

I feel old.

I feel helpless.

I feel old 🧓 AND helpless. Egads!

I knew enough to keep my mouth shut. I stood down for the day to let my mind quiet.

I don’t want to quit, so much as I want the hard to stop being so blessed hard! Enough already.

I’m fixing to fill my soul with some uplifting music. Then, I am going to watch some motivational 📹 videos and grab a bite to eat.

It’s important to DO something when helpless victim mode comes calling. We are NOT helpless. Things are NOT hopeless.

Be encouraged, beloveds. Even when you are feeling a bit less than hopeful. Especially then.

Change takes time. Accepting change takes time. Understanding that change takes time takes time….lol

Don’t look back. Don’t lose hope. Don’t allow God’s Silence to have you questioning everything.

God’s Silence is actually a sign you can be trusted within it. It means you are being treated like a mindful adult and not a child forever having to be spoonfed.

Keep going. Even when it’s the very last thing you feel like doing. Your dreams will thank you for it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I have been working on wrangling positive food choices. I must admit Golden Grahams have been my downfall the past little while.

In the meantime, I am continuing to love me just as I am. Currently, though, there is a whole lotta more of me to love at the moment!

loving me still and always,
Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: You are more than your size, beloveds. You are more than your bank account. You are more than your features. You are more.

Love ALL of you. NOW. Appreciate you. I do. Cut yourself some slack. Keep being a light. Take care of your beautiful heart.

Hold on to your hope.

Learning can be such a pain.

The back half is all black as my phone and technology is being a pain.

Have gotten meal prep done, load of laundry done and this half done.😂🤡🥰

I hope your weekend has been as fantastic as mine. Rested. Snacked. Encouraged. Stored. Rinse. Repeat…hehe.

Be encouraged.

You are NOT just one of many.

You are NOT just one of many.

You are:

One of one.

Second to none.

One of a kind.

Your life was so priceless that there was One who gave His Life that you may live.

You get ONE shot at life. Shoot your best shot, beloveds. With confidence. With integrity. With truth.

Be you. Accept you. Receive you.

Behold, you are not a mere happenstance. There was nothing accidental about your birth.

Get up, beloveds. Take your station. Seize these moments. They don’t last forever. Neither will we.

You are one of one. How much more priceless could you be?
