Everybody ain't always happy


As of late, I've come to realize that everybody ain't happy for you to be happy. It's funny, because happiness should bring happiness, but people start in on their own lack of happiness and things get ugly...

I am happy and am in love. Haters are real. Jealousy is real. Envy is real. Why me? I don't have all there is to have in the world that money can buy and I'm not exactly where I want to be in life, so what's the big deal? I am happy for you, for all that you have done, will do, and are doing. You've made gains in your personal and spiritual life it seems, but there is something, some thing that is keeping you from living in your happiness. I remember a sermon stating that in order to have happiness things have to happen in your life. Things have happened in my life, both good and bad, but I choose to relish the good.

How do we get back to love?

I have grown. I've grown up. I am grown. I am no longer the girl looking for love. I lost sight of it, and finally realized that I had had it all the time. I saved room for love and happiness. There's room for all: if you rolling with Christ, and riding with me, cool. If not, fall back. I don't want the drama. I don't need the mess. I have my own, and just in case inquiring minds want to know, we are just fine. We do what we want. I do what I please. I hate it for you if you think differently.

Why must they try to tear down my house when they know it's made from love...


I would like to close with this:

"Here come bad news talking this and that, yeah,
Well, give me all you got, and don’t hold back, yeah,
Well, I should probably warn you I’ll be just fine, yeah,
No offense to you, don’t waste your time"

Runaway Love

Image
I am a runner. A rusher. A ruiner. When it comes to making difficult, possibly life-changing decisions, I run. No, not down the road in the early evening for cardio, fitness, and mental clarity. I run away from having to make those decisions, or at least I try. I'm most successful with decisions regarding matters of the heart...sometimes, but especially when it's something new. As you may know, the past two years have presented a catalogue of new and different and difficult and uncomfortable, yet refreshing and hopeful and beautiful. "Yet" takes some time to get to, and I believe that is partly the reason for why I run.   The other part is that making a decision that could prove to be detrimental, or just wrong, puts me on edge and makes me feel uneasy. Nothing about it is easy. Or simple. Or fair. Mistakes I can handle, but to mishandle and make a mess of things(and quite literally a fool of myself) , well now that's just something I hate. So, why no

New Year. New You? Same Resolutions...

New Year. New You. Same Resolutions. The Alternative: GOALS. Make short-term and long-term goals that are attainable, realistic, and worth achieving. If you want to reach an ideal weight, make that your long-term goal in a reasonable amount of time, and your short-term goals can weekly (or bi-weekly) weight goals. My Fitness Pal App is awesome for this particular goal, and it allows to enter the foods you eat while setting you with a daily calorie intake. Of course, exercise is a must. If you want to increase your self-esteem/-concept/-confidence, look in the mirror and accept the nose, eyes, lips, and hair that you have. Smile, and accept that too. Do daily affirmations in the mirror. Then, as you grow more confident, do things that are challenging for you. If you want to be happy, at peace, or feel complete, pray. Just pray ask God to forgive you, make you new, teach you how to be who HE wants you to be, and move you completely out of the way so that HE can reign i

Things Fall Apart: Dreams

What is a dream? How does one achieve a dream? When dreams are denied where do they go? When dreams are achieved, does dreaming stop? To live out a dream is most rewarding, but it is not without its hardships. Really, hardships make dreams worth having and fighting for. The fight remains even after one is within their dream - living. It gets tougher, especially when you are doing right. William Butler Yeats said "Things fall apart - the centre cannot hold". My center holds. I know this because I have lived in an ongoing gyre , and I am here to tell it. My story. My fight - my struggle has been victorious because it hasn't been me alone. I have Help. God. Over the last several weeks, lies have been told, and things have been done that has made me ultimately question my dreams. It seems as though I have been set up to fail, but I feel and believe I am not. The situation itself is tough, and I have entered into a failing environment. I AM NOT A FAILURE. Prior to these thing
