Why you mad?

Why you mad, fear?

Just because I no longer fear you.

Why you mad, doubt?

Just because I no longer hear you.

Why you mad pride?

Just because I no longer allow you to run my life.

Why you mad, anger?

Just because I don’t allow you to get all up in my feels.

Don’t be mad. I’m not mad at you. I just don’t have time for you. I got thangs to do.

doing thangs,

Note: I have been fussing and fighting with bugs every since I was too lazy to take out the trash. Now, I have to take the time and expense to fight my way free. I ain’t mad. I am just doing the work to work my way free of bugs of my own making.

Keep working your way free of your dumbness or lazy. Remember not to be too hot on yourself. Be hard on pride. Be hard on apathy. Be hard on unforgiveness. Be hard on giving up. Just don’t be too hard on yourself.

Remember you are loved and not alone. You can do this.

Chosen: Yes YOU!

God: I choose YOU.

Me: Who am I?

God: Mine.

Me: Your what?

God: My:

Everything.

Love.

Laughter.

Joy.

Inspiration.

Hope.

Reason.

Me: Who ME?!

God: Yes YOU.

Me: But, I have…nothing.

God: Yet, you mean everything to Me.

Me: Why?

God: Ah, great question. Keep asking…

Me: The world says You aren’t real and that You don’t care anyway or anymore.

God: How could I not care if I’m not there?

Me: Good question. Why are You impossible to understand?!

God: AM I?

Me: You are!

God: I Am…hehe. Get it?!…*God cracks up at His Humorsomeself*

Me: Okay, so that WAS funny. Speaking of which, You are not supposed to be fun(ny). You are supposedly:

Mean.

Judgemental.

Sending the wide world to hell or some such every other five seconds when we are all acting ten kinds of fools and causing hell everywhere.

God: Who on earth told you such foolishness.

Me: Fool-, er, the world.

God: Why didn’t/don’t they just ask Me? I have chosen them also.

Me: They are too afraid of You. Or, mad at You. Or, think they are too messed up or have messed up.

God: Do Me a solid. Tell them I love them. Nuff said.

Me: Bet! Brb…

Pppsssst, beloveds, I was praying for all. Whilst doing so, this silly piece popped into my brain. God says to tell you that you are loved and that you are NOT alone.

I have to admit something. This piece terrifies me. It’s me at my full silliness. God keeps prompting me to let my fool silly out. I keep wanting to argue with Him. We have been having the same argument for decades.

I don’t write like anyone. I don’t minister like anyone. I am serious and silly all at the same time. I tried not to be this way. I still try not to be this way. Who will take me serious I wonder? I can’t help it though. I have fun when I talk to God. He makes me laugh. He makes me feel ridiculous.

I cannot tell you how many times I have been chasticed by Christians. I guess this is why it is so important for me to let folks know to keep being themselves.

God keeps prompting me to start a podcast. I don’t know how. I don’t know who would listen. I don’t know who would care. Ah. The truth comes out. I see a bit of fear popping up here. Which is exactly why I will find a way.

You have been chosen beloveds. For what? That is for you to find out. If you don’t know or trust or believe in God, ask The Universe. You will run into God and do course.

Until then, keep living your life. Life is short. Keep asking questions. Keep lifting your head. Keep forgiving yourself some mistakes and move on from them. Keep loving a world who could care less about you.

Be encouraged. Don’t let fear hold you back from speaking. Even if your words are not received or understood.

I hope you know how precious and priceless you are. Be good to you. Stop looking at your life as a mistake. Begin as many times as you need to. I begin again with you.

walking towards who knows,

Cassandra

Note: You got me. Keep going. Don’t let you get in your way this week. Tell nonsense no.

Life doesn’t have to be a battle.

Life doesn’t have to be a battle.

Life doesn’t have to be an endless skirmish.

Life can be:

A moment.

A breath.

A sigh.

A wonder.

wondering at the breathless wonder called life,

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: Don’t allow the world to take the wonder out of life. Live.

You are loved. You are NOT alone. Keep on being… YOU

Terrified but not afraid.

Change can be terrifying.

The unknown be scary.

Darkness can appear to be loud and terrifying.

Unknown things lies in a darkness.

So what?

God lives in a light and the darkness.

I am protected.

I am unafraid.

Bullies are loud. They have to be. They know they have no real strength. The strength they have of their perception. Rather our perception of them.

Don’t be afraid of the dark. Don’t be afraid of walking in darkness. Don’t be afraid of the unknown. Don’t be afraid of change.

If you find yourself afraid, so what? Keep going. You are loved and you are not alone.

going with you,

Cassandra

Note: Tell fear to shut up all that noise. You got thangs to do…

Keep starting over.

Keep starting over.

And over.

And over.

I’m sorry hard.

I’m sorry hard.

The world has given you a bad rap.

The world has convinced us you are a bad thing.

You are the best thing that has ever happened to me hard.

I blamed God for sending you to me hard.

God knew what I did not:

Hard is the gateway to miracles.

Hard is a champion of try.

Blessings, honor and truth, reside in hard.

Only those who are willing to set aside pride can win hard.

Hard does not care how much money you have.

Hard does not care what you look like.

Hard does not care where you live.

Hard only works for those who try.

Hard only cares as much as you care.

Hard only sends The Universe to help those who try.

God sends hard when we ask for a miracle.

Ah.

Aha!

I’m sorry hard.

I’m sorry I was so hard on you for being so hard on me.

Thank you hard. For showing up and showing out. You helped bring out the best in me.

Now I don’t worry if I can. I just try. I leave the outcome up to God and The Universe.

When I asked for comfort, hard, God sent me you.

Thank God.

Thank you.

thankful for the hard,

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: If you are going through something hard, just now, get excited! The Universe trusts you to go through hard picking up treasures, along the way. God is trusting you to learn hard is not there to defeat you. Life is trusting you to understand hard is simply a part of…life!

Live. Love someone starting with yourself. Remember you are loved and not alone. Keep moving forward no matter what happens in your life. All times pass whether they be good or bad. All things come to an end whether they be happy or sad.

β€œThe Unbearable Weight of Unreciprocated Kindness: When Being Nice Isn’t Enough”

In the delicate tapestry of human connections, there exists an unsettling truthβ€”sometimes, no matter how earnestly we extend our kindness, no matter how deeply we care or how boundless our love, it simply isn’t enough for some people. This bitter realization casts a somber shadow over the benevolent souls who navigate the complex terrain of […]

β€œThe Unbearable Weight of Unreciprocated Kindness: When Being Nice Isn’t Enough”

This was a beautiful piece. It touched me deeply. I hope it touches you.

Remember to like a few pieces of those who touch your life. It will mean a lot to them.

Be encouraged. Have courage in YOU.

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Hello world. I AM here.

Helllllllooooooooo world.

Yea, it’s ME.

I am here.

I AM here.

I am HERE!

You shall NOT dismiss my worth world.

I am:

Wonderfully made.

Fearless.

Worth knowing.

Ha, world!

Thought you had me.

All you had, though, was my confidence.

Jesus handed that back to me, soon as He got off the cross.

The Universe gave it back to me, soon as I began listening to It.

God gave it back to me, soon as I FINALLY received His Deep and Abiding Love for ME.

Ha, world. You can get gone now, with your dismissive tone, now. I got thangs to do.

See me, world? I see YOU. I gotcha, though, still.

I am going to keep doing me world. Best you start seeing, start believing in me.

Believe me not, world?

Matters not, to me.

I’m going to give you the best I got.

Why?

Why not?

Why not me?

I understand world.

You don’t understand how I roll.

You shall.

I’m here.

I’m not going anywhere.

Hello world.

I am here.

I am.

here,

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: Let the world KNOW you ARE here, beloveds. Believe in you. ALL of you. Stop hiding because of past or present mistakes.

You are NOT:

A mistake.

Your mistakes.

Your pain.

You ARE:

Loved.

Not alone.

Happy tears.

I am content.

Ah.

Aha!

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: It’s important to embrace where you ARE. NOT where you were hoping to be. You are:

Here.

Now.

Right now.

Enjoy your lives, beloveds. Even the hard parts. Even the lonely parts. Training was a beast yesterday. System issues. Got chewed out, rightly so, because I had NO clue what I was doing. Yet, today, I KNOW I gave my all. That’s enough.

I embrace today. I miss my mom. I shall have β˜• coffee and a laugh with her soon. I embrace my lonely. She is awfully lonely today. I shall listen to her quiet.

Listen to your quiet. Quiet does NOT mean you are not moving forward. You are growing. Sometimes, growth requires stillness. Ah. Can you feel the silence? Listen with me.

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU

Who are you without…?

Who are you without…

Him/her/they?

Who are you without…

This/that/the other?

What are you…

Without a cause?

What are you…

Without a fight?

Whose are you…

Without a gift?

Whose are you…

Without a check book?

Are you:

Somebody?

Somebody, worth knowing?

Somebody, worthy?

Ah.

Aha!

It’s important to know why you do what you do. It’s important to know who you are. It’s important to know whose you are.

It’s crucial that you know that you don’t have to come bearing gifts to be loved. It’s imperative to know you don’t have to work yourself to death to be loved. It’s amazing to know that you don’t have to…

You don’t have to!

Ah.

Aha!

Life wants you to come just as you are. God wants you to come just as you are. The Universe wants you to come just as you are!

You are:

Enough.

Much more than enough.

Everything!

Lift up your head. Stop trying to validate your existence. You are NOT a parking spot you know.

Be encouraged. You are love and you are not alone.

here,

Cassandra
