LOL.
This actually made me laugh out loud.
Have a fabulous day today.

Beloveds, please don’t stay focused on all the foolishness happening right now. There is plenty of good. Enjoy some good. Be some good to someone. Laugh.
Do something for no other reason than it felt good to bless someone. Life is short. Live. Please and thanks.
One step.
One step.

You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Keep on being…YOU!
Too often, beloveds, we allow silence to dominate, leaving despair, destruction and darkness to reign unchecked.
Life is short. How much of our lives are we wasting chasing things that will not matter when all is said and done?
I don’t mean to get on a soapbox. I have truly been asking myself these questions.
I have been thinking of my mortality. I have no idea how many days/hours I have left.
I damn betcha I am going to spend every day of the rest of them letting you know you are loved, you are not alone and you are worth it.
Be encouraged.

I dare you to dream!
I dare you to love.
I dare you to try.
Beloveds, life is short.
A legacy is formed with words. Our legacy is built by our actions.
What are your words/actions saying about you?
Seize your moment.
Make it happen.
Enjoy the journey.
Rinse.
Repeat.

I couldn’t sleep.
I tried everything.
My dreams just did NOT want me to go to bed. They wanted to continue to play in broad daylight!
My dreams were basking in the sunlight upon their face. I enjoyed dancing within their embrace.
When I was working, beloveds, I always lamented about not being able to work when I wanted.
My creativity is most alive in the midnight hours. I love writing in the dead of night. To me, it feels like I am the only one up in the entire world. Me and God yakking. God and me carrying on about any and everything.
I especially love writing, listening to music, praying for folk, daydreaming between the hours of two and four. Ask me why, I still don’t know.
I tend to wind down around 6 or 7 am. Then, ALL I wanted to do was to go to sleep.
The only problem with that was I had to get up and work my PAYING job.😳😴
It was exhausting. It felt like I was up 24/7. Unsustainable.
Before I lost my job, beloveds, I grew more and more restless. What I wanted to do did NOT pay the bills.
What paid the bills was no longer satisfying. Yikes! Egads! Fresh hell.
I prayed and prayed and prayed for a way out.
Silence.
The tornado came.
Loudly.
I find myself rebuilding my financial bricks. With no straw. 😳🙏😫🌊
I am doing my utmost to use what I have. What I have doesn’t seem to be ⚒ working. Not for me, at least.
I’m trying.
The tornado has given me the time to write when I want. So, now I get up at odd hours. I work at weird times. I do breakfast things at the dinner hour. Fantastic!
I hate the tornado happened. The happening, just so happened to have delivered me the opportunity to work when I want. What I have ALWAYS wanted but was too fearful to try.
I chose stability over uncertainty. What good did that do me? I’m smack dab in the middle of the uncertainty I had run from my whole life.😳
Now, I am using what I have.
Use what you have. Do what you can with what you know.

There is more to this life than your struggles.
There is more to this life than just what you can see.
There is more to you than you give yourself credit for!
It can be easy to feel as though we are nothing more than the painful things we go through.
These times pass. Until they do, hang in there!

I finally got around to watching “Music Of The Heart” starring Meryl Streep and Angela Bassett.
I had heard of it and had always meant to watch it. Watched it and was wowed. Was terribly moved by the song “Music Of My Heart”.
Prettiest song I have ever heard and says everything I feel for and about God, right now. He really has taught me how to love, how to love me. He showed me the music in my heart.
I have prayed and tried. Tried and prayed. Cried. Cried out. For THIS time.
My time is here. It has arrived. In it’s due season. EVERYTHING shall has it’s due season. Everything.
Nothing we do shall stop the evolution of time. Should we end our end, time continues on.
I stopped by to encourage someone. Ah, beloveds, be encouraged. You shall, as the bible says, reap if you faint not. Keep on in your well doing. Your end shall be sweet.
In the meantime, embrace and enjoy the journey.
Life is good. Even when it’s hard.
Be encouraged. We got this. God has us all.

Fear not, beloveds.
No matter what. No matter why. You SHALL make it.
All shall be well.
Keep moving FORWARD.
Keep looking UP.
We got this. Take no heed of the darkness. Turn on the light. Be a light.
We CAN.
We WILL.
I have been saying these things for five years. I have been fighting back the darkness for the past two.
I have wrestled with a live tornado that tore up my city, tore down my confidence and tore up my illusion that true disaster could/would never shake me as badly as it did.
Still, I am here. Still. Thriving. Jobless. Hopeful. Joyful. Expectant. Resilient.
Keep being about being about it EVERY day.
I love you. As does He.asking for A Friend,

I told myself NO writing in bed after I have stopped for the day. This may be tough. I am used to snatching up my phone at odd hours.
I am trying to train myself to shut things down so I can REST through the night.
Decades of being on call, to the universe, has made it hard to shut down.
If we are going to accomplish our dreams, beloveds, we are going to have to treat our minds much better than we do.
We are going to have to give our minds the rest, the quiet, the refilling they deserve.
Pick a cut off time and cut things off! Let your mind rejuvenate.
How can your mind do what it needs to do if it is forever filled with doom scrolling?😳🤨🤔
My body is slowly adapting to this. It is relaxing more at night. It is allowing ME to be still and peaceful as the night comes calling. It no longer feels as if it is on call.
What is the point of perpetual motion for motion’s sake?
