YOU are a gamechanger.

YOU are a gamechanger.

YOU are THE gamechanger.

Your life is what you make it. What are you making yours?

We are rounding out the last of the year. It’s not too late to accomplish many things for 2025.

It’s time to get back in the game. The best is yet to come.

Note: Let’s go.

One step.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!

How will you know?

Ask!

See what HAPPENS!

Stop predetermining the outcome, beloveds. You have NO idea how The Universe shall answer your ask, your try, your focus, your determination, your perseverance.

Ask!

Persevere!

Try!

Focus!

Determine to win, no matter the outcome.

What do you DO when you have run out of straws?

That’s it.

THAT’S IT!!!

My 60 inch television appears to no longer want to give up it’s bounty!

Add to that, the rent has been increased. Again…*sigh*

Aimlessly, wandering through the television channels has been my ONE true mindless source of entertainment…*sigh*

I have to laugh. Too dismayed all day to cry.

I must admit, beloveds, that I feel just like the black television screen:

Useless.

There, but unable to make it work.

Tantalizingly there but unusable.

Fresh hell.

I tell myself to move FORWARD.

I tell myself to look UP.

I tell myself…

Ah, shut up already, Cassandra!

I ask Life how long it plans to keep on lifing this way.

I ask The Universe to cut a sista a break already.

I am a bit too annoyed to ask God anything at the moment.

Still, I rise.

Yet, I fight on.

I choose to:

Laugh.

Encourage someone.

Love someone.

Starting with me.

I just stopped my what in the fresh hell is this, long enough to encourage someone.

This too, shall pass.

I truly am wondering how many straws I have left. I tell myself there can never be a last straw. I have too many things/thangs to do.

I can betcha that I will NOT look back on this time and laugh…lol.

We got this. Be sure to squeeze some joy out of the day. I am fixing to go make a cup of coffee and holler up to heaven at mom, for a spell. Ah, mom. Why did you have to run off and leave me at a time like this?

Note: Don’t allow tough circumstances to cause you to see nothing but gloom and doom.

In times past, I would have wallowed in self pity for days. Life is much too short for that. Good yikes, tho. My 60 inch television…*pout*. That made me laugh out loud.

Someone cross their fingers for me. I have to take another assessment. Good grief, I have forgotten soooooooooooo much math!😳🤣🙏🛎

Note: Keep going. I know, life can be sooooooooo disappointing when we focus on what we thought should/could/would happen. I am doing my best to get rid of as many shoulda, coulda, and wouldas as I can.

I am proud of my fight this week. Be proud of yours.

I still have F’s to give.

I still have F’s to give:

Fight.

Fortitude.

Fearlessness.

Focus.

Fabulousness.

Don’t allow this world to talk you into being a cynical, non caring, unsympathetic  lemming.

Continue to give an F’ or two.🥰😁

Get excited when you are being agitated. Agitation brings gold nuggets to the surface!

I have been aggravated.

I have been agitated.

Good, Life says.

Fantastic, God says.

Awesome, The Universe says.

Agitation gets us motivated. Agitation forces us to MOVE.

Get up!

DO something.

Stop allowing disappointment and discouragement to run the show.

Do what you can.

Love as much as you can.

Live with intention.

The rest shall come out in the wash.

Note: Last night, I talked myself into giving up on my channels.

This morning, I agreed with last night.

This afternoon, I told last night and this morning to take two seats.

Now, I begin. Again. I shall see you all tomorrow!

I wanted to quit today. I didn’t.

I wanted to quit today.

I didn’t.

I wanted to run away and hide today.

I didn’t.

I wanted to give in to disappointment today.

I didn’t.

Quit. Told me to quit today.

I won’t.

Fear told me I won’t make it through today.

I will.

Despair told me I will fail today.

I’ll try.

I may fail.

I may not make it through today.

I’ll never know until I try.

I think I’ll try.

Today.

persevering,
Cassandra

Note: Your dreams are testing you. Keep going. It’s not you. It’s just the trials making sure you are serious about your why. Keep on keeping on.

Enjoy the hard. Enjoy the challenge. Embrace every painful step. You are turning into a magnificent diamond!

I think not.

I wanted to quit.

I told myself, “I think not”.

I wanted to turn away and hide.

I told myself, “I will not”.

I was afraid my want to would no longer.

I told myself, “I hope not”.

Hope asked if I could continue.

I told myself, “I think so”.

God asked if I would continue.

I told myself, “I believe so”.

The Universe asked if I might continue.

I told myself, “I hope so”.

I fight on.

Note: We fight on. Quitting can NEVER be an option.

I was talking to my bro about how truly difficult finding a job has been. He reminded me that it only takes one. True that! I look on.

Keep moving FORWARD.  Keep looking UP.

One step.
