Don’t allow your outside to control your insides.

Vertigo has been kicking my tail all week. So much so, it’s a daily struggle to not allow fear, doubt and whatifs to control my insides.

The battle is ALWAYS won in the mind first.

ALWAYS!

This is why the world is desperate to control your inside. Desperate to get YOU to poison your inside with doubt and fear.

When all seems lost, beloveds, remember all is NEVER lost until God says to let it go. Then, and ONLY then, is it okay to turn loose of the rope.

Vertigo, terrible headaches and unpaid bills are all hollering for attention. I told them ALL to shut up.

I trust God. Period. Either there IS God or there isn’t…*shrug*. I trust God. Call me a fool, if you must. Imma nut who is screwed to the right bolt.

HAHAHAHAHA! Nuts and bolts!….Hahaha!!

Laugh at your apparent doom, beloveds. Your circumstances are just trying to scare you off the fence!

Have faith.

Trust that things WILL work FOR your GOOD.

Be encouraged, beloveds. I know. It’s NOT easy. Hard times ARE hard. They are. Yet, they are sooooooooooooo wonderfully beautiful!

Embrace the hard. Yea, it hurts. Yet, we grow with and through them.

In case no one has told you, today: I love you

Dreams don’t often act on reason. Good thing for us, eh?

Your Prime membership has been revoked.

Too often, we give folks prime access, in our lives who neither deserve it nor have done the work of building on the relationship.

Periodically, I take the time to clear out my phone from one way relationships. I also clear out my inbox 📬 of all the needless clutter.

Life is short. We don’t have time to have folk taking, taking, and taking. It took us everything to build what we have.

Don’t feel bad about revoking memberships. True friends will be there for you and understand when you need some space.

True friends respect and understand your need for space at times.

True friends give you room to grow.

True friends love you when you are being charming and love you when you are being annoying.

True friends love you when you make mistakes. True friends know you are not a mistake.

There is only one you, beloveds. You don’t have room in your life for those who will not cherish you.

Prepare to be loved. Love is coming for you.

waiting for love,

Cassandra

When will I be loved, 55 asked me.

When will I be loved?

My heart has been asking this since I turnEd 55.

In truth, I have not put my heart out there. Not really. Not all the way. Not where I can be hurt.

I find myself closer to taking a chance. On me. I wonder if it’s too late. For that part of love to come for me.

I am not desperate. I am not lonely. I am just wondering. I am just wandering a bit. Towards something.

I think this is a good thing. Mom gave up her dreams for us. I am sad she didn’t do more for herself. I think she would be sad if I would do the same thing.

I want to walk on a beach with a friend. I want to talk of silly things. I want to talk of many things. I want to talk of serious things.

I would like someone to get to know the whole of me and find that me satisfying. I wonder if that should ever happen.

I am not looking for romance. I am not looking for sex. I am not looking for companionship.

I am looking for connection.

I wonder if connection will find me?

I am asking a question. I don’t know what the question is.

Do you?

asking for A Friend,


Cassandra

Note: I feel deliciously vulnerable right now. I used to hate feeling vulnerable. I don’t mind it now. It just means my heart are speaking loudly. I hear you. What does your heart say to you?

Try another way.

For whatever reason, WordPress does not like me writing on my computer right now.

I have had to go back to riding on my phone. It’s taking longer but I am getting the job done.

Sometimes, we have to go back to the old way of doing things in order to get new things done.

Initially, I was going to give up working on my dreams and start again tomorrow. I decided to give it one more try and write on my phone.

Life is short. When an obstacle pops up,  deal with it.

I don’t know why we have to fight so many obstacles on the way to our dreams. It would be nice if the way was a bit smoother.

I made a goal of writing ten pieces today. I wrote several that disappeared. I started to give up for the day. I told myself.I would not break my promise to myself.

Here I am. I don’t know if I get the count the pieces 😂

Keep writing.

Keep trying.

Stay focused on your dream.

Don’t waste time on the distractions.

Enjoy every step of the way.

Even the steps that disappear.

walking with you,

Cassandra
