Stop lying 🌎!

😳

I was just listening to someone who was saying there is no such thing as truth, but everything is folk perspective.

LIES AND PROPAGANDA!!

There has been a YouTube argument, amongst creators, where there has been a particular creator who “found a loophole” by “stealing other people’s content”, encouraging folk to start a channel by basically saying whatever is needed to say to “chase the algorithm”.

He says the only thing that matters is the “views” so “you can get the bag”. He says the subscriber doesn’t matter and that their comments don’t matter.

Sadly, this 🌎 world/society has placed “chasing the 🛍 💵 bag as life’s ONLY priority. How sad.

I won’t get on a soapbox here. I will say this:

Life is short.

People matter.

Integrity matters.

Honor matters.

Truth matters.

How we treat one another matters.

Now, there has been a flood of new creators liberally throwing lies and disinformation around chasing the bag. Sad.

Don’t get it twisted, beloveds. Karma is a b for a reason!

I choose to live a life of integrity. I choose to care for my fellow man. I choose to see folk as beautiful souls and not a dollar sign!

Keep being the wonderful person you are. Keep shining your light. Don’t be discouraged. Keep laughing. Keep loving. Keep praying for blockheads!😳😳🥰

One step.

You are loved.

It don’t make sense until it do.

“It don’t make sense until it do”.

What a ridiculous and nonsensical sentence that makes NO sense. Until it do. Until you think about it.

Hhhmm.

Life often makes no sense. Until it does.

Until you:

Fight through the noise.

Fight your way through your fears.

Do that which you thought was initially impossible.

Understand you were your biggest enemy.

Find out you were your best friend.

You were smarter than you thought.

You have been an idiot more times than you’d care to admit outloud.

It was them.

It was you.

It was life.

It doesn’t matter who/why.

Your lack of faith moved nothing.

Your faith moved a pebble.

Life is what YOU make it.

Laughter helps just about everything.

Sometimes, nothing is funny.

Being alone sucks.

Being alone is fantastic.

Your own grass feels pretty good.

There are too many distractions in other folk’s grass.

Sometimes, it’s best to order brownies from the bakery.

Yea, beloveds, it just don’t make sense. Until it do.

What if the answer is no, God asked me.

Fear and I have been in some mighty battles since the tornado.

Fear: You won’t find a job.

Me: I will.

Fear: You will lose everything.

Me: I might.

Fear: God won’t be there for you.

Me: He is.

Fear: God may be there for you but will certainly tell you no when you ask for THAT. Hasn’t He been silent all these last years?

Me: This is true. Still, I’m going to keep asking.

Initially, I battled fear alone. I didn’t admit to being afraid. Outwardly, I told everyone all was well. I told myself all was well.

Secretly/inwardly, I quietly told myself I was terrified. I was absolutely terrified.

Soon, comfort eating replaced standing ten toes down on FAITH.

I was, initially, afraid God’s Answer would be no.

Soon, I began to focus on and ask myself what if God DOES say no?!

Would I:

Walk away?

Walk away from my faith?

Walk away from my faith in HIM?

To my delight, my answers were an emphatic NO!

NO, I will NOT  walk away.

NO, I will NOT walk away from my faith.

Absolutely, NO, I will NOT walk away from HIM.

His yes or no has NO bearing on MY yes or no.

I have been doing my level best to not allow my choices to be guided by other’s choices. Meaning, I am not going to treat folk how they treat me.

I am going to love folk. Period. Hopefully, that love will be returned. If I am treated poorly, I shall move on.

I am holding myself accountable for my life. No one owes me a thing. God doesn’t owe me squat. The Universe doesn’t owe me. Life doesn’t owe me. Family does not owe me. Friends owe me nothing.

My life IS the cake. The rest is occasional icing. What’s more, I can ice my own cake as well…lol.

In the end, the answer may turn out to be no. I shall never know until I ask Him. I have.

I await His Answer.

Ah, God…

May I?

Will you?

Can we?

How soon?

How much?

How?

Cassandra

Filling the other half: I Want To Know what love is.

It’s that time again, beloveds.

Time for us to fill our hearts with some love and call in some love into our lives.

Get those microphones out…lol. I am just a swooning with my blue screwdriver. Poor neighbors. I AM attempting to sing as softly and as best I can. Since I sound like someone stepped on a cat’s tail, I don’t know what to tell you…hahahahahahahahahahaha!

Ah, beloveds, don’t be afraid to call in love for your lives. The folk who hurt you were hurting themselves. Get some healing, then pray for them and for others who are afraid to pick up a screwdriver/hairbrush/whatever to love on themselves and call in more love.

Life is short, beloveds. Love NOW. Live Now. Right where you are.

Don’t wait until you think you have ‘earned it’. You are worthy of love. Now. From you. From me. From Life. From The Universe. From others. You are.

Let’s goooooooooooooooooooooo!

We have love to get.

We have love to receive.

We have love to give out.

What the heckamiah Jeremiah are you waiting for, beloveds??!!

When you get it backwards, turn it around.

That felt weird!

*Cassandra wonders why her chair feels so weird*

Hhmmm.

Opps…ehem…*Cassandra takes her pants 👖 off. Cassandra puts her 👖 on the correct way*

Don’t judge me, beloveds. I’m 🧓 old.

I had something wildly inspirational to say, but putting my pants on backward kinda spoiled the smrt mood I was in….hahahahahahahahahaha.

Have an amazing day. Do something that makes your heart smile.

These are the things I told myself, beloveds, when I found my want to wanting to go back to bed instead of starting on this week’s goal.

My goal this week is to get myself on a regular work schedule. The times are not crucial just now. I am just rebooting the habit of getting back in the work habit…lol.

Going through tough things can throw of the hardest of souls. Especially hard struggles, over a long period of time, can zap the most positive spirit.

These super hard days have been teaching me how to CONSISTENTLY forcing myself to try and DO whether I feel like it or not.

In fact, I don’t allow my feels to have a say in how the day shall go. I tell my feels that they WILL get some act right, or I shall put my 👢 boot up a behind!

I am about to reward myself with a cup of coffee ☕. I really DID want to hop back in my comfy bed. Lazy attempted to convince me I could start tomorrow. I sent lazy to make the ☕ and hurry up already! As punishment, I told lazy NO Danish with the ☕!…*mini pout*

When you find yourself wanting to talk yourself out of things that will help you achieve your dreams, make yourself do a chore. It’s a win/win. The place gets cleaner. You will find yourself slowing down on listening to lazy or not right now.

You can do it if you want to.

Do it whether you feel like it or not!

I made later help lazy.🤣🥰

“Later”.

That’s what lazy said this morning.

Okay, I said. Then, I made later go help lazy and get chores done early.

Early got mad for having been thrown in for no good reason.

Uh,oh got in trouble for laughing as I made it go wash the dishes.

Scram took off as was smart enough not to get caught up. It said it wouldn’t be nuttin’ if it didn’t do nuffin’.

Laugh just laughed at all of us.

I told them all to kick rocks and went in search of something to do…lol.🥰🤣

Have a wonderful day. Get some good laughs in there somewhere.

Life is much too short to spend it worrying about everything!

Clean as you go.

Ah!

Lazy was being extra lazy. So much so I made it get up and make some chili!😆

The 🛏 bed was looking mighty fine this morning. I went back and forth with myself about waiting until “later”. I made later help!

Mom taught us to “clean as you go” whilst cooking. That way, once everything is done, you don’t have a pile of dirty dishes!

Now, I have chili done, dishes washed, and ready to get on with the rest of my day.

Be sure to clean as you go. Do what needs to be done. Don’t wait and let things pile up.

Yes, I know, chores can be monotonous and mundane. Life can seem monotonous and mundane. Do them, anyway. Do life, with joy, anyway.

I’m lifting up every heart that is weary from doing the damned dishes already!

Be encouraged.

Filling the other half: Empty yourself.

Empty yourself, beloveds, of the fear that you carry so that you may have/be an empty vessel that can be filled, fully, with:

Love.

Hope.

Joy.

Laughter.

Faith.

Integrity.

Tenacity.

Compassion.

And a million other things you will need in order to make your way, SUCCESSFULLY, through the rest of your life.

I would be a billionaire if I had a nickel for every time I have heard how the glass is “hall full” or “half empty”.

No one talks about filling the glass all the way up. Until now. Until me…lol.

It’s time for us to empty ourselves so we can begin to be refilled with all those things that grow and prosper us and all in our path.

Unfortunately, we all have allowed ourselves to be filled with all types of foolishness. What’s worse, WE have filled ourselves with such nonsense with the utter lies we have been telling ourselves ABOUT ourselves.

Enough of that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s time for us to empty ourselves from all the things holding us back.

Life is short. Let’s get on with it, shall we?
