It’s not hopeless.

Hang in there, beloveds.

Your dreams are out there. Adventure is out there. A new way of living is out there. That is, if you can summon the courage to get out there and live.

The only thing hopeless is your outlook. And that you can change any moment you choose!

This may seem strange for an encourager to admit to but before the tornado, I could encourage everyone in the world but me.

Why? Allow me the privilege of speaking freely, beloveds.

There has always been a part, a small part, albiet, that secretly believed I would NEVER be enough. All my life, I have been dismissed, by the world. Because, of my race. Because, of my gender. Because, of my faith. Because, of my joy.

Because. Because. Because….

Yea, I fought back against all those hurdles/stats/shenanigans. Still, after a while, even the best of us tend to take on water.

So, I secretly carried around a bit of ‘for everyone else but you’ juice everywhere I went. I used that juice liberally, early and often. SMH.

It was, is, and ever shall be, BECAUSE of the love of God, that I learned HOW and TO love me some me. Yall non-believers are just going to have to give me some room here…lol.

Now, NOW, now that my heart is full of love….ah, God, I just hafta give it all away!

Beloveds, all is NOT lost. We have all been lost. In stinking thinking. In set ways. In hard headedness. In all manner of foolishness.

Maybe, God left me ’round here to say these words to some. I have no idea. I have chosen to use these words, these days of mine, to love as many as I can. Call me silly, if you like. I love you too!….hahahahahahahahahahahahha

Be encouraged. My heart has been trying to tell the world something for days. I know not what she has been trying to say. If someone knows, please let a sista know.

Have an amazing today. It’s the only one you get.

asking for A Friend,
Cassandra
