You don’t have to be anxious.

You don’t have to be anxious.

You don’t have to be frustrated.

You don’t have to be fretful.

You can choose to be joyful.

You can choose to be optimistic.

You can choose to be hopeful.

The glass can be half full. It doesn’t have to be half empty. Life is what we make it. I got up early this morning, determined to enjoy my day. All of it.

I’m not going to wait around, for a big check, in order for me to be happy. I’m not going to wait, for a knight in shining armor, to arrive at my door, before I’m happy. I choose to be happy right now.

What do you choose?

Note: Have an amazing rest of your day. You can start over in the day as many times as you need to.

Keep on being…YOU!

Get up.

Get up.

Get going.

Get after it.

Get back in the game.

Get ahold of your nerves and get going.

Life is short. Live it to the fullest.

Note: I got up early this morning. I refuse to let fear and doubt try to control the day and message. I got things to do. So do you. Let’s get it!!

Perspective is everything. What does your day look like? What do you choose to do within your day? It’s up to YOU.

We choose to give away our agency. I got up this morning and decided the day would be fantastic. I’m going to deal with whatever happens inside of this day.

How about you?

It’s all about the grind…NOT!😳

The world tells us that life is ALL about the grind.

It’s not. Constant grinding,  beloveds, does nothing but grind us down. Eventually, we find ourselves:

Burned out.

Disappointment.

Disillusioned.

Yes, working hard is necessary. Still, we MUST take the time to:

Reflect.

Reset.

Reassess.

It’s important to keep up maintenance on our heart, mind, soul, and spirit. We MUST take care of ALL of us.

Sadly, too many of us put our life purpose as chasing a bag. Life is soooooooooooo much more than money.

I am learning how NOT to grind myself into dust. I work hard. I rest just as hard…hahahahaha!

I just stopped by to encourage someone to rest. Take a break. Take some time for yourself. Tell guilt and have to to shut up!

Put your stress to good use.

My nerves have been shot, lately.

The stress of job hunting has my tummy on high alert. So much so, beloveds, me and the bathroom are talking engagement. 😳🤣

I do NOT allow the stress to get to me. I make myself get up and DO something. Eventually, the nerves settle down.

See, nerves get bored easily! Nerves absolutely detests:

Joy.

Laughter.

Dancing.

Singing.

Praying.

Companionship.

Action.

Positive thinking.

Positive self talk.

Funny movies.

Chick flicks.

Reading.

Journaling.

Calling a friend.

Being a friend.

There are a variety of things, beloveds, you can DO when feeling stressed.

Try one or two!

You will be surprised how fast your mind refocuses when you give it something to do.

Life is short. Try not to spend too much of it scaring yourself half to death with thoughts of gloom, doom, and despair about what may could possibly happen.

Be encouraged.

Note: Anxious woke me at the crack of dawn. I told anxious to fire up things so I could blog a bit. Anxious took off. Appears I have made anxious a bit nervous with wanting to SO something. 😳🤣🤗

Be sure to laugh today…

Hate, you are not welcome here.

Hate, you are not welcome here.

Apathy, you are not welcome here.

Despair, you are not welcome here.

I just stopped by to let someone know that they are loved and not alone. Whoever you are. Wherever you are. Whatever your faith is. Whatever you look like, wherever you live. Whoever you love.

We all need one another.

here still,
Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: There are those who are determined that we all hate one another. There are so many who are trying to get people to be enraged, hateful, and spiteful. I refuse to be one of them. I refuse to walk amongst them. I choose to pray for them. I choose to stand against them. I choose….

Anytime you choose to.

Why won’t you?

No matter what it looks like.

Keep going.

No matter what it looks like.

Keep believing.

No matter what it looks like.

Keep trying.

No matter what it looks like.

Life can be tough, beloveds. It’s also fantastically worth living.

I have learned soooooooooooo much, about ME, in this last trying two year period.

I have learned that life is not being hard just to punish me. Life just lifes. Simple as that.

Hang on. Hang in there. Enjoy your life.

No matter what it looks like…

Let’s LIVE, shall we, beloveds? Get up and DO something. A small thing. A spectacular thing. A YOU thing.

Note: You can overcome the things fighting you right now. You just have to stay in the ring long enough to win the match.

This IS your time. Seize these moments. Try. Then, try again. Until? You win. You learn. You experience.

These days will not come again. Be sure to inhale. Breathe in the goodness life has for you.

Keep moving FORWARD. Keep looking UP.

My dreams just won’t quit me.

My dreams just won’t quit me.

I have tried to break up with them many times. I tell them to go away. Yet they remain.

What do I do with these dreams that just won’t quit me? How can I convince them that I am not worthy of them? They seem not to care. They call me. They sing to me. They tell me that greatness is within me and awesome days are without.

My Dreams woo me. They know my name. They tell me there is so many things out there left for me. I want to believe that.

Every time I want to give up my dreams whisper for me to give them just one more try. I think I’ll try. One more time. How about you?
