My sis sent this to me. It made me laugh out loud. I figured I would send a smile your way.
Have an amazing day.

I was hungry. I wanted bacon and eggs. I placed an order.
My order was a few minutes away. I looked at what I did have and realized I could have most of my meal prepared and make the bacon when it came. I didn’t have to wait till the bacon came to start preparing my meal.
I did just that. I had things timed perfectly. In just a bit, I was happily munching on a feast. This had me thinking about my life and all that I can do while I’m waiting for my dreams to show up and show out.
You don’t have to wait for this to happen before you do some things. Use what you have. Take advantage of your now. This is the only time that we get. Let’s make the best of it.

Note:
The storms just won’t stop. That’s okay because I am dancing in the rain.
Don’t let these storms of life keep you down, beloveds. Keep dancing in the rain.
Stomp in the puddles. Make a mess. Laugh. Have some fun. Remember, the sun is going to shine after these storms.
We got this. Don’t fear the thunder. It’s just noise.

Note: You got this. So do I. Enjoy this day. These storms have been relentless. They just won’t end. I’m doing my best to stay positive. What else can I do? There’s a time for everything that happens under the sun. Summer will be here soon. I’m doing my best to stay in the present and enjoy today. I hope you are doing the thing.

I won because I tried.
Nuff said.

#YourLifeMattersToMe
Note: There are days when all we have the strength to do is try just a little bit. Just getting out of bed is a real effort. But that’s okay. Life can be that way. In the meantime, keep doing the best that you can. It’s all that life requires of us.
Keep trying. The best is yet to come for you and me.
I am FINALLY learning that I truly am more than what I have or will produce in life. Just because my finances are a wreck, from lack of being able to find a job yet in this wrecked economy, does NOT mean I am a wreck. I have taken cared of myself, financially, for the last 50 plus years years. It has been terribly disconcerting to find myself lacking.
This time WILL pass. I want it to pass with me being a better me. This time has shown me how precious life is. How fleeting moments are. Lasting ones.
Life is more than a paycheck. So much more.
Be encouraged, beloveds. If you find yourself in a wrecked stage of life. You are NOT being punished. Pushed? Certainly. Extended? Absolutely. Challenged? Undoubtedly.
In the meantime, enjoy your day. As shall I.

Tell fear no.
Tell lazy no.
Tell apathy no.
Tell doubt no.
Now that you have all the nos out of the way, how about chasing down the yes?!
Yes, I will try it
Yes, I will do it.
Yes, I can.
Life is how we choose. Say yes. Don’t allow your options to be one of apathy. We have millions of choices every day. Not making a choice is a choice. What are you saying yes to today? What are you saying no to?
Choose those things that will bring your dreams closer to fruition. Make today fantastic.

Whatcha Doin?
Are you pursuing your dreams? Are you looking out for you? Are you making new friends? Are you trying new things?
Are you chasing down those things that set your heart on fire? Are you star gazing? Are you daydreaming?
Are you failing spectacularly? Are you trying new recipes? Are you reaching out to old friends? Are you making amends?
Life is short. Whatcha doin with the life that you have?

I am running on empty. I am running out of encouraging things to say. Okay, I’m not but it just feels like it. I’m tired of the same old, same old. I’m ready for change. I’m ready to be doing something different. I’m tired of this limbo I find myself in this last year.
I wonder if people get tired of my rah rah messages every single day?
The Universe told me to rest today and watch some action movies. Yet I find myself here. I wonder if anyone else is running on empty these days.
There has been 14 confirmed two tornadoes in my state these past few months. Exhausting. Overwhelming. Depressing. Discouraging. It feels like they would never end. I know they will eventually.
In the meantime, It’s important that we take care of ourselves. It’s important that we allow ourselves time to refresh and to refill. I think I will go find some movies to watch. I need a hero today. I don’t have the strength to be my own hero. I hear popcorn calling. Who wants to join me?
Make sure to take care of yourself. There is only one you. Summer will be upon us soon. Enjoy your day. Enjoy your life the best that you can. Remember all the things that you still have.
Remember that you are more than what you do or what you have. I have to remind myself of it every day.

I’m thankful today. Thankful for all the hard times. These hard days are forcing me to move beyond my fears. These hard days are forcing me to take my old age and run into the future.
These hard days are making me acknowledge my strengths and weaknesses. These are days are challenging me to my core. I am thankful for that. There are days when I wish I would have chosen the easier path of hiding in my comfort zone. I could do that all day.
I think about my old job and how easy it was. Then I think about the sadness I carried in my heart all day, as I wished I would have pursued my dreams. I don’t have that sadness now. I feel joy.
Yes, I’m anxious because I don’t have a job and don’t know how I’m going to meet my needs. I try not to focus on that. I do my best to focus on what I have currently. Can’t do my best to encourage as many people as I can every day. I do my best to keep myself encouraged. I remind myself that this too shall pass. It will.
Be encouraged, beloveds. Your hard won’t stay hard forever. Keep doing the best that you can. You are building a legacy. Be proud of your try.

It’s okay to be an idiot…sometimes.😳
I did something really dumb. I mean really dumb!…*stamps foot*.
Instead of waiting five days, I miscalculated, added dumbly, and messed up some sorely needed funds.
Five days, Cassandra!😳😡
Now, I have one less month to maneuver financially. All because I couldn’t wait for five days!…*stamps foot*
I made the decision based on fear of what “could” happen. I failed to calculate what “would” happen, NOW, IN THE PRESENT CASSANDRA! WHAT IN THE FRESH HELL WERE YOU THINKING!??
I just stopped by to encourage folk to hang in there and be good to yourself even when you do something absolutely STUPID LIKE DO SOMETHING NOW THAT COULD HAVE WAITED FOR FIVE DAYS!!…opps..ehem….my bad.
Don’t give yourself a hard time when you fall prey to being human. Try to laugh your way through the dumbness. I know I am trying to.
In the meantime, I’m having a cup of coffee, getting over the oops I can do nothing about, and getting on with my day.
In the past, I would have wasted the rest of the day kicking myself and carrying on about something that can’t be changed. I was a dumbsky. It happens. I happened to me today…lol.
Be encouraged. Have a fabulous rest of your Sunday. Geez, Cassandra. Really?!
wondering what dumb thing I shall do next,
