Tears were my meat, yesterday.

Tears.

Tears.

More, tears.

The floodgates, have been opened.

Wide.

Enlarged.

Tears of, grief.

Tears of, joy.

Tears of, thanksgiving.

Thankful for, the hard.

Grateful for, knowledge, gained.

Hopeful for, journey’s, next corner.

Tears, ah, they stream, now, today.

Tears of, appreciation, for disappointment.

Thankful for, disappointment.

Grateful for, knowledge gained, from being disappointed seemingly.

Hopeful for, journey’s, next bend.

Yes, tears were my meat, yesterday.

Ah, today, joy has been, my bread.

I am satisfied, with both hard and disappointment.

I am unsatisfied, with any scrap of timidity in doing what is needed, what is right, what is just.

I choose to.

I have to.

I must.

I shall.

I will.

I do.

tearfully,

Cassandra

Note: Disappointment visits us all. Triumphant folk simply REFUSE to entertain it for long. Victorious folk use the fuel, of disappointment to fuel his/her/their relentless pursuit of excellence. Be encouraged.

Ehem, you KNOW the drill by now. Sheesh:

I love you.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU.

Love someone.

Start with you.

Let me know how you are doing. I mean it. Don’t make me break out in song. I will do it, people!🎤🥰

Free: Universe let me soar!

Me: Universe let me soar!

Universe: Where would you like to go?

Me: Everywhere!

Universe: Let’s go…

Beloveds, your sights have been set much too low! Get about getting about it! The Universe is waiting on YOU! This is not a pep talk. This is a mandate, from The Universe, to get that:

Dream. Home. Relationship. Peace. Joy. Friendship. Fellowship. Destiny.

Notice, money was not mentioned. Hard will meet you. No matter. Go. Hard is only producing diamonds, in your shoes, as you walk.

Go on. You CAN. You WILL. I go with you.

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: Do you REALLY need one after THAT!? Smh.

Free: God, let me, fly!

Me: God, let me fly!

God: Fly!

Me: How can I fly when finances, or lack thereof, are keeping me down?!

God: I gave you what you need. Fly, beloved.

Me: All I have is this old voice, in this broken down body, speaking from an old/dated balcony.

God: MORE than enough! Fly! The Universe is calling. The world is waiting for YOU. Go now. Fly!

Me: I shall try.

God: Bet!

*Cassandra takes a leap of faith, opens her 🚪 door, stands on her balcony and says*:

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU.

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: Fly, beloveds. Right where you are. YOU are the very miracle you have been praying for.

Go! – Part II

Go! – Part II https://www.instagram.com/reel/CwEzuwlof90/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng==

Go!

Life is short.

No time to waste, beloveds.

The rest of your life is waiting for you. Get gone!

Hold on: Vertigo.

Having vertigo is a pain.

Navigating a world that feels like an appears to be spinning, when it’s not, is a pain.

Yet, life is good. I pray, for healing. I keep it, moving.

Why mention this?

To encourage folk to keep on keeping on. Even when their world appears to be spinning.

Yes, it’s a pain forever hoping, dreaming, trying to move the seeming immovable objects and forces.

It’s in the TRY, where we grow. The spinning is just the test and trial.

We SHALL, beloveds, keep on spinning those diamonds, in our shoes, as we keep moving:

Forward.

Upward.

Onward.

Be encouraged.

Be an encouragement to someone else.

Helping someone remove a pebble, from their mountain also removes a pebble from yours!

The high heat and humidity apparently makes this vertigo lose it’s mind, at times. Sheeeesh.

I have determined to be determined and encourage as many folks as I can when I am the most discouraged and disappointed. Thus, here I am:

Discouraged.

Disheartened.

Determined.

I have been ssssooooooooooooo angry with ME for not knowing HOW so I can know what to DO.

Ack, Cassandra!

*stamps foot*

Think I shall work this frustration off organizing something, somewhere. Crap!!

Okay, so lemme find some encouraging words somewhere before I frustrate us all…

brb,

Cassandra
