I try to make a difference in someone’s life everyday.
Be the difference for someone today. Starting with you.

Note: Life is what you make it. Make it glorious. Keeping things short and simple, this week. Ah, God, hurry. We got thangs to do. Help us make some dreams come true TODAY, would You please and thanks? Asking for many friends…
Life can be draining. I’m running on empty. I plan on refilling myself with cheetos and chicken strips. π€£π₯°
How about you?
asking for A Friend, Cassandra
#YourLifeMattersToMe
Note: Be sure to laugh today. All that has been troubling you will be in trouble, as The Universe works things out for you. Try not to worry. Things WILL work out as they ought. Until then…
Keep moving FORWARD. Even as you don’t know where.
Keep looking UP. Even with a heavy head/ heart.
Ah, beloveds, you are NOT alone. The Universe walks alongside you carving love in the sand! Be encouraged.

Note: I love you. So does He. Today has been a real struggle to stand ten toes down. Took an extra cup of coffee…lol. Standing! Still! Quit is NOT in our itinerary for today…hehe.
Another half day wasted, er, wading through fake job listings. Crapola.
Instead of throwing the phone out the window, I turned on some praise music and decided to work on some pieces. Good for you, eh?
I promised myself I would love on some folk when life was really cutting up for me. Why waste all this hard, fretting and worrying, when I could be loving on folk?
I CHOOSE to love.
I CHOOSE to have faith.
I CHOOSE to enjoy my day. Even the hard, gooey center.
Life is going to life, beloveds. What are you DOING with your life as hard rains down on you? The rain is going to come down anywho. How will you find yourself AFTER the rain?
Resilient?
Resistant?
Reactive?
Radioactive?
You get to choose how you will spend your day. Choose to make it a joyous one. I am blasting my music and being thankful for my hard. What say you?
asking for A Friend,

Note: When you find yourself upside down, do the opposite. Don’t let mad run the show. Don’t let frustration run the show. Don’t let your feels run the show. Turn the day into something positive. Be encouraged.
One step.
One step.
One step.
You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Keep on beingβ¦YOU!

Like the inevitable fool, who is forever, foolishly, trying to shove a square peg (circumstances), through a round hole(situation), I have been trying to navigate my world perfectly.
Such a fool’s errand. Smh.
Don’t judge me too harshly. I suspect you have/are doing the same thing…lol.
The longer I live, the less I worry about being perfect. All I can do is to give and to be my best.
I’m content with my try. Today.ππ₯°
Be content with your try, beloveds. All you can do is all you can do. Your all IS enough. YOU are enough.
asking for A Friend,
Cassandra
#YourLifeMattersToMe
Note: You don’t have to be perfect, beloveds. You just have to be…YOU! Isn’t it fantastic to KNOW you are enough?!
One step.
One step.

You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Keep on beingβ¦YOU!

The long journey is just another opportunity to explore and grow.
I’m learning to be okay with my limitations. Limits do NOT make limited. They make me human. They make me rely in FAITH. They help me to cut myself some slack.
I used to find limits soooooo…limiting! π€£π₯°
I am learning to be okay with my limits. I have all I need right now. If I needed more, The Universe would have given me more.
These limits are forcing me to expand my reach. These limits are asking me to explore my horizons. These limits are making me CHOOSE between a gloriously unknown future and a boring known past.
Your limitations do NOT have to be limiting. You are what you tell yourself you are. Tell yourself an amazing story! Make your chapters glorious. Get going. You’ve got thangs to do.
asking for A Friend, Cassandra

Note: Boundaries can be helpful. They can keep us safe. Limitations do not have to be a four letter word…lol. Be encouraged. Keep on keeping on.
My streaming service is still acting a fool. My playlist is gone!! I have had to take another eternity to rebuild it.
The great thing about this is I am discovering new shows I probably would have never come across. I used to be a creature of habit. I say ‘used to’ because I am trying to teach myself to experience new things and people.
I am checking out new channels, creators, content and other things to open myself up to learning the world through as many eyes and minds as I can.
I have been listening to young folk, old folk, weird folk, super serious folk. I have been listening to men’s viewpoint and views from both sides of the aisle. I have shaken my head at the lot of us.
Still, I remain hopeful. We are all more alike than different. The common thing I have been observing is how passionate folk are about wherever they stand. We just need to turn this passion towards uplifting one another, instead of tearing one another down.
I tell folk to be encouraged. Everyday. We all need to hear it. Be encouraged.
Keep working towards your dreams. Life is short. It’s okay to help others with theirs. Just make sure to spend the bulk of your time on YOURS. That way, you can help more folk if you are so inclined.
I am tired of losing things. I am tired of making π lemonade. So what? These lemons are still going to be waiting for me to DO something with them.
Today, I took disappointment and made some pieces out of them. After I cried for an hour.
What will I DO now? Wait. Patiently. Okay, as patiently as an old lady can wait.π₯°π
Keep betting on YOU. Remember, you are infinitely priceless. Stop throwing your money away over consuming stuff to prove how valuable you are. Kick rocks on that!
hopeful for us all, Cassandra
#YourLifeMattersToMe
Note: I am still weighing next steps. In the meantime, I am at least taking a step. Then, another. Then, another. Take ONE step, beloveds. Just one. Sometimes, the next step is the scariest one. So what. Take the step anywho. In case no one has told you today: I love you.So does He.
When you are feeling your lowest, lift up your head.
When you are feeling the most hopeless, lift up someone else.
When you are feeling the most discouraged, move your feet FORWARD.
When you are feeling the most discouraged, keep looking UP.
Move FORWARD, beloveds.
Look UP! Don’t look down. There is nothing underneath your feet but despair. Enjoy the wall. Look at the beautiful sky. Feel the sun shining down upon you.
Look around at the beautiful life you ARE building. It’s NOT a pile of rubbish and rubble. The foundation you are building is being built on FAITH, not fear and dread.
The Universe is forcing me to walk this highwire without a net. Why? So, I can learn:
Trust.
TRUE faith.
How to reach out for help.
How to RECEIVE/ACCEPT help.
How to keep fighting for my dreams.
See, beloveds, The Universe allows these tough things to get us to toughen our resolve. God don’t give us pillows when we think we need them.
God knows it is much more important for us to CHOOSE what we will and will not try or do. It is in the CHOOSING and the DOING that WE change our mindset, first. Our outlook, second. This then changes our circumstances.
The Universe could have opened Its wallet long time ago. Which would have, temporarily, given me money. But, I would have remained in a fear-filled rut.
I am dealing with these fears: Fears of loss, fears of losing, fears of growing older, fears of growing older alone.
I have had to deal with my why: Why I write. Why I love to encourage. Why I care so much.
I love because He first loved me. Period. End of story. I know this may be an eye roller for some. I can live with that.
I love you, beloveds. If you are reading these words, I love YOU. You need to know you are thought of. You are cared for. You are cherished.
Be encouraged. If you are truly in a tussle with life, just know it’s for your good. Life really is working for your good.
Stop getting on yourself so much. This hard is NOT your fault. Even if it is, you can still grow from it through your choices and actions.
