Don’t trip. Hard ain’t nothing but a word.

Stop tripping, beloveds.

Stop tripping when life cuts up, trips the circuit breaker, and stops you from doing a stupid, being stupid, running with stupid, or life is appearing to be stupid.

Life is lifing. Simple as that.

Life is NOT trying to indict you. Life, at times, gets all up in your grill to indict your:

Lack of effort.

Lack of your keeping it 100 with you.

Lack of your being 100 with God.

Lack of keeping your act right acting right.

You allowing YOUR pride to keep you from healing a wound, restoring a relationship, acting in integrity.

You allowing YOUR anger to wreck a relationship, close a door meant to stay open, open a door you KNOW ought stay shut.

Beloveds, when God/Life/The Universe puts up a stop sigh/sign, it would behoove you to:

Stop.

Look.

Listen.

Drop and roll, if need be, to put out the fire. It doesn’t matter who started it. It doesn’t matter why it got started. It’s an emergency. Put out the fire!

You do NOT have time to lament what is burning down. You have ZERO time to be angry over the destruction. Put out the stupid fire! There will be time to assess, process and hopefully not regress.

I have learned, I am learning, I am relearning to make choices, to act, to DO, to stand and act on FAITH. Not fear. Not anger. Not unbelief.

Life is what we make. Life truly is NOT fair, more often than not. That’s okay. Let life do what life does. You keep on being and doing you.

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: Life is incredibly hard just now. Folks tell me to take things a day at a time. I find the minutes excruciating, just now. If someone can help me with that I’d appreciate it.

Be encouraged. I wish I had someone to tell that to me. I am doing my best to make something of these dark days. Morning sure is taking a long time to get here, God. Not sayin. Just sayin…..

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!

  1. For what it’s worth, when I was overburdened with grief and survivor’s guilt, I found some of those dark moments (before the sun rise) became the most illuminating. Fire isn’t always an emergency, it can also be cleansing and transformative. The lesson is often to not be consumed. Question, what did Moses see on top of the mountain?

    If you need to someone to talk to I’m around through email, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’ll get back to you and won’t let ya sit in the dark alone, too long. 😉 Take care!
