Share ALL of you.

Share ALL of you.

STOP hiding the parts you think folk will dismiss as this, that or the other.

BE all you can be as best you can.

REACH as high up as you can and let Life take care of the rest.

REST knowing you have done and given your all.

Note: It is NEVER okay to quit on yourself or your dreams. I don’t give a hoot what you have or are going through.

So what?!

Get up.

Go!

Move!

Boo hoo.

We have cried.

Happy?

So what!?

Get up…

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being… YOU

The Universe said NO!

Me: I want to quit. May I?

The Universe: H to the NO!

Me: I want to quit. May I?

God: Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Me: I want to quit. May I?

Life: Hell no! Do you WANT all hell breaking loose every which way?!

Me: I want to quit…*sigh*.

Jesus: I understand…*sigh*. You must not quit. You have too much no quit in you.

Me: *sigh*…*sniff*. This is hard. I want to quit.

Me: I know. You must not quit. This same mountain will be here, tomorrow. What will you do with it then?

Me: I shall keep trying.

Me: Crap.

Me: Fresh hell.

Me: Ah, God.

Me: Mom.

Me: Whew.

Me: I can.

Me: I WILL.

Me: I CHOOSE.

choosing to try,

Note: You do NOT get to quit. I don’t give two hoots how hard it is. You don’t have to move the whole mountain. Not today. Just a pebble. If the pebble is too heavy, move a grain of sand. If the grain of sand is too heavy, ask God to help you move it. He has strong hands/shoulders.

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

No such thing as convenient.

There’s no such thing as convenient.

Life happens. Never had a convenient time.

Share your heart with others. You are not an inconvenience. You are not a burden.

Don’t believe the lie that you are too much trouble.

Let folks know what you need. Your needs are important.

You are more than what you offer to the world. Life is short. Be sure to ask for what you need.

There will never be a convenient time to go through hard things. There would never be a convenient time to share hard tRuth’s. There would never be a colleen time to confront your pride.

Keep going. Enjoy your life. I know I say the same things everyday. We need to hear them everyday.

I hear a cup of coffee calling my name. Take care of yourself for me.

Be encouraged. In case no one told you today:

I love you.

Note: Keep reaching for your dreams. You got this.

Fear, I gotta break up with you.

Dear fear,

We need to talk.

I need to walk.

It’s not you, fear.

It’s me.

See, The Universe, FINALLY, convinced me I don’t need to listen to you anymore.

God, FINALLY, convinced me I don’t need to be led by you anymore.

Life, FINALLY, convinced me I don’t need to fear you, to fear ME and my dreams anymore.

Don’t take it personal. It’s not you. It’s me. I no longer believe your lies. I believe in me now.

Go away now fear. I have no need of you.

Do me a favor. Tell doubt I’m coming for it next!

Your former fool,

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: Get to writing your own letters! Time we broke up with ALL that keeps us for being and presenting our best selves.

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being… YOU

Don’t allow yourself to be the reason your dreams don’t come true.

Don’t allow yourself to be the reason your dreams don’t come true. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0SjPdVukol/?igshid=NmJiYWZiY2E0Mg==

Keep taking out the trash. Keep doing what’s needed to make a dreams come true. Keep going even when you’re tired. Keep going especially when you’re tired.

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

Tell yourself a new story.

We tell ourselves a story everyday. We tell ourselves whether the day is gonna be a good day or a bad one.

We tell ourselves we can do something or we can’t do something.

We tell ourselves will meet somebody or we won’t meet someone.

We tell ourselves our day is either gonna be a disaster or it’s gonna be a great day.

We are the author of our story. Tell yourself a new story. Tell yourself today is going to be an outstanding day.

Then, make it an outstanding day!

Today was a rough day workwise. I had no idea what I was doing. I learned a lot. I laughed a lot. It was an outstanding day!

Too often, people use what happened in their dau to determine whether the day was wonderful or awful. Everything that happens is a teaching moment. Whether we accept the teaching is up to us.

My work day has ended. I’m going to enjoy me some football. In the past, I would have carried on about how rough the day had been worthwise. Now I laugh and keep it moving. I learned a lot. I laughed a lot. Priceless.

I promise myself I would do three pieces every day. This is me keeping my promise to myself. It has helped my writing. It has helped me keep to a schedule. I am enjoying keeping my promises that I make to myself.

It takes discipline to be good to yourself every day. I am learning to be more disciplined when it comes to myself. I am disciplined all day long for the world and my job. I know I am as important as my job in the world.

I hope you are okay today. I thought of you often. I pray for you much. Take care of yourself today. Being courageous you know that you are loved and not alone.

Keep being you. Enjoy being you. I am enjoying getting to know myself. I love being fifty five. Who knew?

Cassandra

Note: Don’t be afraid to reach out. Even when scammers pop out. The more I reach out the more I see scammers reaching out to me. That’s okay. I weed them out and keep it moving. I feel sorry for those who prey upon those who are trying to help the fellow man. I pray for them. Life is short. Keep loving the world even though it will take advantage of you.

Have an amazing Thursday. Don’t stress yourself about all that happened on Wednesday. Don’t concern yourself with folk who aren’t concerned about you. Don’t waste time wasting time. Don’t…😴😴

Don’t forget you are loved. You are NOT alone. Keep on being… YOU

Look at me: Look beyond your fear.

Look at me.

Look at me not at what you fear.

Look at me.

Not at what you’ve been told about me.

Look at me.

Not at what you think you see in me.

Look at me.

Allow me to look at you.

I will try to look past my fear of you.

I choose not to be afraid.

Of getting to know you.

Of having you get to know me.

We need one another.

You need my loud.

I need your quiet.

Come sit with me.

Allow me to sit with you.

Together.

This world needs more together.

I’m here world.

Never again will I allow myself to be on the outside looking in.
