EVERY conversation is a gift.

My wombie called me. Woke me up. Yikes!

Initially, I wanted to bop her one. Or two. Or ten…

After discarding such thoughts(would have taken too much effort so early in the morning), I settled into a half asleep, moderately dumb, because of being half asleep, conversation about everything and nothing, all rolled into a ball of mishmash what on earth are we doing up so early talking about THIS/THAT?!

What a wonderful way to start the day. I enjoyed every ridiculous moment!

This made me ponder on how little folk seem to enjoy one another. The world has turned every relationship into a transaction. Don’t let this be your plight. Enjoy the people in your life. Take the time to get to know them better. Take the time to allow them to get to know you better. Take some time for one another.

Relationships are a gift. They are meant to be. We are the ones who turn relationships into transactions. Which means we can take the transactional nature out of those relationships!

People are a gift of God. What kind of gift that is is up to you!

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!! I fear I may have been the booby prize for some!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Take the time to enjoy someone today. Starting with you.

Keep trying: Chocolate Pudding Fiasco Take Two.😳

Okay, soooooooooooooo, it may or may not be kinda sorta accidentally true that…ehem…

Joke based on an unfortunately true story:

Question: What do you call Chocolate Pudding that was made with entirely toooooooooooooo much 🥛 milk?

Answer: Chocolate shake!…*annoyed pout*.

Don’t judge me, beloveds. At least, I am still trying…

Why, Cassandra? Why, oooooooooo good heavens, WWHHHHYYYY do you keep inflicting these food crimes upon the land?!

Well…hhhmm….

While I figure out why, I stopped by to encourage you to keep making your own food crimes, er, mistakes.

I used to hate, hate, hhaaaaatttteee to make mistakes. Making mistakes made me feel as though I were the mistake. My mistake…lol.

Mistakes are how we learn. Making mistakes and learning from them helps us to grow.

So I ended up making Chocolate Shake instead of Chocolate Pudding?! So what? It was absolutely delicious.

Find the joy in your mistakes, beloveds. Have fun trying new things. 😂 Laugh at the blunder. Learn. Keep it moving. Rinse. Repeat.

Have a glorious day creating your 🔮 future! What you do today is contributing towards your future. This can be a good or not so good thing. Be sure your contributions are POSITIVE, filled with integrity, laced with love, and full of joy.

The Chocolate Pudding Fiasco.

Okay.

Sooooooo…

There is a small possibility that I may have perchance kinda sorta may have committed a small food crime, once again.

I wanted to make some chocolate pudding.

I know. I know. I told myself I would follow directions this time. I maybe, perhaps, didn’t quite follow directions again.

The Box said to add three cups of cold water along with the package of chocolate pudding mix. I found a half cup. Guess how many of those I used?! You guessed it. I used three. which meant I only put in one and a half cups of milk.

Instead of making putting, I ended up making chocolate paste!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I have been enjoying my food experiments. I am wondering what other food catastrophe I can make this week…

I stopped by to check on you. Hopefully, I’ve given you a laugh today. Don’t let this day in without you getting in a few more laughs. Reach out to someone. Encourage someone today. I love someone today starting with you.

Note: This piece made me laugh. I hope it made you smile. Life is much too short to be spending all day fretting and worrying. We are heading into a new year. Be sure to take optimism with you into next year. Dream big. Remain joyful. Remain faithful to your dreams. Begin again as many times as you need to. Be good to you.

Your hard time is not meant just for you.

Your hard time is not meant just for you, beloveds.

Your hard time is here, in part, so you can leave a bit of a treat for someone else as you make your way through your hard or dark place.

I have learned so many things through this hard time. I’m trying my best to give away as many tools and lessons that I’ve learned along the way.

I have learned how important it is to reach out to others for support. I’ve learned that if you don’t have a support system to create one!

I have learned to ask for help. Loudly!

I have learned to love out loud. Lustily!

I have learned to laugh through my tears.

I have learned to be content with nothing..

I have learned how to lose friends with grace.

I have learned how to love me when I have been at my most unlovable.

I am still learning all these painful lessons every day. I am grateful for the hard. The hard is helping me keep on my toes.

Your hard time is not just for you. Your hard time helps you create your story. Share your hard. Let someone else know that they can make it. You might as well make your hard work something!

Note: It helps to share hard with others. It helps them. It helps you. We all need each other. Be encouraged today. Be sure to get some joy out of your day. Do the best you can, not to focus on the hard. That can be hard..lol. I crack myself up.

New Beginnings: FIGHT for your dreams.

It feels like all I have been doing is fighting lately. Trying to keep a positive attitude. Fighting with lazy. Duking it out with fear.

I have been fighting my way out of bed. I have been fighting through emotions. I have been fighting with everything and everyone to keep my dreams intact.

Fighting so hard is exhausting. I almost wanna say, forget about it and walk away. I can’t. My dreams mean too much to me. I want to see what they look like. Fulfilled!

I shall keep fighting. How about you? Keep giving it everything you have. We shall win in the end.

Note: I wanted to quit many times. I refuse to quit. the battle is one or lost in the mind. I tell myself to keep going. I tell myself to be encouraged. I tell myself to keep standing on faith and not fear. I keep telling myself the truth. I can and I will. So will you.
