Don’t worry. Everything will work itself out.

Note: We got this! Let’s make it happen. I have spent too many decades worrying about things that never happened. A big waste of time. None of us knows what our today will bring. None of us knows we are having tomorrow. All we can do is the best that we can today with every moment that we have.

I have been having to make do with less, or make do with nothing. as has been having to reimagine with the things that I have. I’m trying things I never would have in the past. I wish the hard wasn’t so hard. It is what it is. I shall keep on keeping on. Be encouraged. Things will work out in the end.

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!

Persistence.

I needed this today…

Things WILL work out. They will. Be encouraged til things come out in the wash.

We will NOT run!

I have been fighting fear wherever I come across it. I have been finding it in my age. I have been finding it in my thoughts.

I am ruthless with fear now. I start throwing haymakers IMMEDIATELY.

It’s okay to be attempted to give fear leadership. Fear lies to you and can be awfully persuasive. Just don’t believe the hype. Deal with fear head on.

I grow every time I confront my fears and weaknesses. There is nothing wrong with not being strong in an area. We work on our weakness. We accept ourselves as we work on us.

None of us will ever be perfect. We CAN be decent people though. I choose to be a loving and decent person. A bit boring, perhaps, but decent!

My coffee says I am being rude. Join me if you’d like. I have decided to spend the day watching ridiculously predictable action movies. I need to see some winning.

Have a beautiful day.

You are doing the best you can.

You ARE doing your best, beloveds. Let your try be enough.

I never seem to FEEL like I am enough these past few months.

My try FEELS inadequate. My attempts SEEMS as though they are not looking. It LOOKS likes my dreams are not taking hold.

Things are NOT what they seem. We are exactly where we are supposed to be at this time in our lives.

Be encouraged. Enjoy your today. I spent a delightful Sunday yakking with fam and a friend. I then followed up with a ridiculously predictable action movie. Tell me WHY beloveds, nobody can seem to shoot the good guys? Why does the good guy NEVER miss?! Why are folk forever jumping on motorcycles when they are going chased by black SUVs?🤣😳

The damsel was rescued by the man. Of course. The poor woman was helpless and grateful. Of course. Don’t get me started on stereotypes today.

I think I shall go find some chocolate donuts to rescue from their encampment and free some coffee as well. Who wants to be my sidekick?🥰😎🤣

Note: Have an amazing week. It is taking everything within me to maintain my joy. between the storms and vertigo life has not been funny. I have had to change how I do things. I work as long as I can, because there are days when I just can’t work. in the past, I would have driven me up ten walls. I have learned and I’m still learning to work with what I have. 56 is teaching me many a lesson. 56 goes to bed when she wants to and doesn’t care if it’s in the middle of the afternoon!

Have an amazing rest of your day. Be sure to get your me time in there. Make sure to cut yourself some slack. Remember, you’re doing the best that you can. That’s all you can ask of yourself.

On the other side of maybe.

I found my dream.

On the other side of maybe.

I found my way.

On the other side of maybe.

I found my hope.

On the other side of maybe.

I found my footing.

On the other side of maybe.

I found my perseverance.

On the other side of maybe.

I found many things.

On the other side of maybe.

So can you.

Maybe, you can.

Maybe, if you try.

Maybe, if you’ll believe.

Maybe…

Ah, maybe. So many possibilities can be found on the other side…

Maybe.

You don’t have to wait for your 🥓 bacon to arrive.

I was hungry. I wanted bacon and eggs. I placed an order.

My order was a few minutes away. I looked at what I did have and realized I could have most of my meal prepared and make the bacon when it came. I didn’t have to wait till the bacon came to start preparing my meal.

I did just that. I had things timed perfectly. In just a bit, I was happily munching on a feast. This had me thinking about my life and all that I can do while I’m waiting for my dreams to show up and show out.

You don’t have to wait for this to happen before you do some things. Use what you have. Take advantage of your now. This is the only time that we get. Let’s make the best of it.

Note:

Fight the hardest…

Fight the hardest…

When you want to quit the most.

Fight the hardest…

When you see no way out.

Fight the hardest…

When even your most ardent supporters have walked away.

Fight the hardest…

When everything in you is tired.

Fight the hardest…

When the night seemingly will not end.

Fight the hardest…

When every doubt you have are singing in unison.

Fight the hardest…

When you find yourself ten steps back for every step taken.

Fight the hardest…add whatever you’d like here. Just keep on fighting.

Note: Yesterday was a toughie. I found myself sooooooooooo hard on me, beloveds.

I was raised to be a giver. I was taught to give and to do for folk and don’t worry about me as God would look after me. He has.

Financially, I gave away as much as I could. I enjoyed giving. I still do. That said, the tornado wiped away every cushion, snatched my confidence, stole my vision of the future, and robbed me of my eternal optimism.

I’ve been fighting to regain those things. I didn’t realize how much I allowed my job to be my identity/safety. I am grateful for that tornado for having revealed that horrible lie.

That lie, that I HAD to be tied to THAT job, to any job, for security and safety, had kept me from pursuing my dreams.

That lie, helped me make excuses for my lack of pursuing my dreams with all that I have.

That lie, kept me from looking further than the rent, the light bill and a few odds and ends.

That lie, beloveds, has caused much more devastation than the tornado did.

I am rebuilding. I am fighting. I am standing on FAITH now. That’s something.

I find myself fighting words today. I hope someone understands what I am trying to say. I’m still trying to figure things out. I’m still trying. Ah. Aha! We fight on. Be encouraged. Keep moving FORWARD. Keep looking UP.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!
