There is a rash of folk who are living their lives pretending.
They are pretending to work out, pretending to be rich, pretending to be entrepreneurs. How sad.
We are so much more than what we do or what we have.
Just be YOU, beloveds. You are one of one. You are unique.
You do NOT have to be someone or something you are not.
It’s okay to age. It’s okay to be young. It’s okay to have little. It’s okay to have lots.
You don’t have to live in a mansion. It’s okay to work a blue collar job.
We are ALL needed. In EVERY space.
I just stopped round to encourage folk to be themselves. The older you get, beloveds, the more you will understand that life is much too short to be concerned with the superficial.
Take care.

Note: You don’t have to be any one other than who you are. Keep being the beautiful person that you are.
There are times you have to walk alone. There are times when no one will be willing to go with you. There will be times when you don’t want to go at all. Keep going.
My closest friend moved away. Right when I have needed him the most. Life can be cruel like that sometimes.
There will be times in our lives when no one will believe in our journey. Still, we must travel our own path. Keep moving forward. continue to build on your legacy. Your labor is not in vain.
Take care of your precious heart today.

Note: My lonely has never felt more lonely. I wonder what God is up to? Keep going. Even if you must go alone. You shall meet many on the journey!
Enjoy this time in your life. We get this one shot. Make this week amazing.
I have failed repeatedly these past few months. Still, beloveds, I have been exposed to new things. Like Lemon8. Had never heard of it but introduced as folks on my TikTok requested to follow me on Lemon8.
I trucked on over and see they don’t like things over 59 seconds. Alrighty then.
Later, Capcut reached out inviting me to apply for their Capcut Creator Program and I needed to submit three videos using transitions, filters, editing, music etc. The three I selected had fantastic voice-over, music and photos but no filters or transitions as I had not learned much on them.
I submitted them. I prayed. I asked for prayer. I waited.
I heard back. The answer was no. The answer was resubmit, in 7 days, including videos with transitions and filters.
I made notes. I created another video. I added some filters. I will create more and resubmit. I had been praying for direction but this was never in my mindset: To be a template creator.
Now, I have something to shoot for. I never would have had the opportunity had I not been willing to try, fail, try, fail again, put out my imperfect self, fail, try, rinse, and repeat.
This has me thinking higher. With more effort, training, and trying, beloveds, I have the opportunity to keep putting myself out there to be 💰 monetized one day. Hopefully.
I am opening myself up to new ways to present my why to the world. I am willing to be led. I am willing to be obedient to doing what The Universe has asked and not just being obedient to what I want The Universe and God to bless.
The not now did not discourage me. Even I knew they were amateurish in nature. They were. They were some of my first attempts.
I just stopped by to encourage you to keep falling forward. Am going to start including my TikTok, Instagram, and Lemon8 links for folk to be encouraged by.
Let’s keep throwing our why upside the wall, beloveds, to see what sticks!!

Note: I have really been enjoying getting my hands dirty. Each lousy 📹 video is teaching me how to make better ones.
I used to feel like a failure when I failed. I now know failing is crucial in achieving great things. I am going to see how many more times I can fail today. 🥰
Be encouraged. Remember that you are NOT your failures or your mistakes. Have an amazing today.
Note: There are just times where my heart is soooo full of love for God it spills everywhere. Pay me no mind. I don’t mind.
I’m praying for everyone today. Even the nonbelievers. Especially for them. I don’t blame them. Folk use the name of God for every purpose except for intended: Love. Simple as that.
Be encouraged this day. You are loved and not alone. Keep moving FORWARD. Keep looking UP.
I have spent a delicious few hours absolutely messing up EVERYTHING whilst trying to make new mini motivational videos.
What’s worse is I don’t know WHY!?? I’m doing the same things I was doing before. I think.😁🥰🤣
I just stopped long enough to encourage you to keep on messing up. We are NOT our messes. We are just making a few extra messes to clean as we grow.
Keep going.

Note: I keep messing up. I think I have used this saying before. I can’t remember….lol. A reminder to keep on keeping on no matter what. No matter how. No matter how long.
Why Can't I Be Loud?!
