Speak It!!!

When we we children we believed we were invincible. We could do anything, accomplish any task and we always found a way to turn the negative into positive!

How far would you go if you could thrust yourself into the mind of a child to recapture the clear-eyed vision of the world and the positive thoughts of yourself again.

As children when issues or problems arose we would look for solutions to find a way to resolve our conflicts.

As children when we needed a hug or love, we didn't wait to be hug by our moms, we would go and hug her leg or lay our head in her lap or simply hug her waste without a doubt that she would return the needed hug or embrace that we longed for.

As children, the world was beautiful, fun, exciting and presented itself as a window of opportunity. 

 And It STILL IS!!!

As children, our vision was so clear, unclouded with a sparkle of innocence!

Our problems began once we matured.  You see, once mature, we seem  lose the ability to see problems and holes in our plans,  as just a bump in the road.  Instead we perplex things with our adult vision. You know, make things more complicated.

As children we would watch T.V.  and if a cowboy picture were showing, we knew that the good guy was dressed in white and the bad guy was dressed in black.  And, we learn that simply by watching.

And we realized that no matter how tough the bad guy in black was, the good guy dressed in white was going to always WIN!!!

Now.... lets become children again. put on that white suite, lets pretend that we are invincible, that no problem can defeat us, and that there is always a solution to any issue.

Concerning love.... when we need a hug, lets revert back  to that child and go initiate a hug or say I love you to someone and believe you will receive back.

Sometimes as adults our thought process can cloud things, we see things in a more perplexed way!!!

This my suggestion is this:

~See yourself as God sees you~

• Say I am Wonderfully and  Fearfully made!
• I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me!
• I am a Perfect human being,, yet subject to make mistakes!
• There is no problem that cannot be resolved --- even if it means walking away!
• My day will a Great day!
• My nights will be sweet .. even as I sleep!
• My problems only presents opportunities!
• I shall not fail ... Because I am not a failure!
• I am not defined by my job... it is simply a means to provide!!!
• God is my TRUE PROVIDER!!!

Speak positive of yourself and others .... Be an adult, but let the childlike thinking excel and stop looking at your problem, but think on a solution.

There is a constant battle in the mind. Victories are won or lost by the power of the mind. We can  win the battles of life, first, by how to THINK, and then by how to SPEAK.

~I hope this writing  made sense to you~

These are my thoughts ... I welcome yours!!!

Remain True and Love yourself!!!

~When you are true to yourself ....... It breathes freedom within~

 

Relationships most have had. Good relationships many have experienced and many have not, thus resulting cordial breakups and sometimes in bitter breakups.

Regardless of the relationship you are in you must always remain true to yourself. Note, if you cannot remain true to yourself, then you will rarely remain true to anyone else.

Always remember this, in any relationship, if your partner, husband or wife refuse to except you at your worst, then he or she do not deserve to be with you at your best.

Many relationships fail because the other partner, husband or wife desires that the other change. Now lets be honest if you have a bad attitude, bad habits, etc, then you should change.

But, I'm speaking of your spouse or partner wanting you to change to be the person that they wants you to be and compromise your character by doing things that you dissapprove of.

Just because you like or love someone or something, doesn't mean you have to give up who you are to be with them or have certain things.

If, in any case, someone or something requires you to be unfaithful to your values, beliefs and integrity, question it.

What can you offer to life if you have given yourself up for something that's not true to you?

If you negotiate your dignity and your principles, then you might as well kiss happiness goodbye.

You must respect and love yourself, accept what sustains you and dismiss what threatens you and compromise your-self worth. 

 When we are willing to leave where we are most comfortable and when we are willing to travel roads that have been left untouched by many, then we will be able to find what is great, because we will find ourselves.

Take a chance and look for the person that you desire to be. You will experience troubles and adversity on this road, but never fret, because it sometimes requires pain to grow.

People will talk about you, and life will try its best to beat you down, but remember to keep pushing. There will be times of confusion, and times of loneliness, but remember to do what is in your heart, and to listen to what God tells you.

If you are never lost, there is a good chance that you will never be able to find who you really are. Remain true; learning how to drive your heart takes much practice and much time.

Just Be You!!!

So often we live our lives trying to be like someone else. We attempt to dress, look and act like someone other than ourselves.

We spend time that we don't have, we spend money that we cannot afford, all for the sake of trying to be someone we are not.

But why? Why is it so important to be someone else? Why is it so difficult just to be who you were created to be?

Please understand, God knew you and who you were destined to be, before you were ever conceived in your mother's womb.

He created you to be you!!! There will never be another you.. You are Special... No.. you are Very Special, because there is no one else like you. No one!!!

We all at one time or another ask the question.. What is life? And my answer to that question is "Life is a gift from God".

But equally, What is your purpose in life? Why are you here except to be who you are, and no other. This is what I believe, if you are trying to be someone you're not would result in a wasted life. Period!!

Listen, you have a whole lifetime to be you, to discover new things, to remember past and present things, and to assist where ever needed.

That being said, why on Earth would you throw this down the sewer and take on someone else's role? There is already someone else for that role in existence! But only you can fulfill being you.

There is a saying, it is better to be not so good at doing your duty than excel at doing someone Else's. Of course, in other words, but you get the point. Think about it.

What drives you? What is important in your eyes? What do you think you're here to do? How can you add to life and the world? What are you good at?

Start listening to your truth. And flow with it ... Allow Yourself the opportunity to Discover You!!!

Get a mirror ... Get naked ... and stare at yourself and ask yourself the question ... Who am I? Why am I here? What is my purpose?

Lastly: In The Bible, in the 29th chapter and the 13th verse of The Book of Jeremiah, these words are spoken:

"And you shall seek Me, and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart"

 Also in The 33rd chapter and the 3rd verse of Jeremiah these words are spoken:

"Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou know not".

So, Seek God's face ... and... Find your purpose in Just Being You!!!

These are my thoughts ... I welcome yours!!!

Regaining Strength!!!

In a world of  distractions, noise, competition, those that fight for recognition and a host of other chaotic events, a part of you still remain untouched.

It is that in which you become the observer. You become the spectator of all that spins and dances around you.

Again, we live in a chaotic world. A world where things come together, bubbles of confusion, crying because of separation and happiness because of reuniting. All mingled with going to and from, of hot and cold, of night and day, being still and being in motion.

Yet no matter how troubled our surroundings seem to be, at your core there is still a peace. There is a disconnected connection, there is a unity with all that touches you, but does not get to you. It is there where you find the ability to retreat, to put on pause that which so wraps you into thinking that all of that is truly life.

I believe that we are strong, even when all around us is caving in. When we cannot distinguish between night and day because of chaotic issues.

I believe each of us have a hiding place deep within our hearts, that when chaos enters we can retreat long enough to gain strength to carry on. It is from there that you regain your misplaced courage.

It is from there that you draw your renewed strength. It is from there that you regain your misplaced courage.

When you are there, no one can see you, yet you are on the front row. It is from there that you recover the sense of your true essence.

It is there, where you are everything you are meant to be and more.



Lastly --- There is a dream that I've had for years now. This dream that I've since I was a kid. The dream is my being in a world where chaos surrounds me. And, there an old white house. Very junky inside, but I know this like the back of my hand.

There is a very clean room that only I know how to find. And, it is that room where I always go to to find peace. And once my peace is restored, I then gain a renewed strength to re-enter that disturbing world that caused me to retreat there to gain strength to persevere.

I hope this makes sense to you, because it is so clear to me.. Find your hiding place, love yourself and regain your strength.

Thoughts are invisible!!!!

A thought is the activity or process of thinking:

A thought is also: An idea, plan, conception, or opinion produced by mental activity.

often with think and our thoughts are invisible to others, until we act on them. Then and only then are they visible!!!

A thought can be good, bad or indifferent.....

Every action begins with a thought. Whether it is a build a home, going to a movie or making a phone call, the original seed is born inside somebody's mind before it is three-dimensionally manifested. And when i say three-dimensionally, we do many times process the dimensions of height, width, and depth of what think!

The content of our minds determines what we end up doing with our reality. We can see it in our preferences. For instance, those who like sports will seek sports related activities, musicians will create and share music, basketball players will follow a pick-up game, those who enjoy exercising will seek out a gym and so forth. 

We can see it in our career goals, which lead us from one step to the next in our endeavors. We can see it in our romantic interests and how we carry ourselves depending on how we perceive each other to be and feel about relationships.

We are not always conscious of what goes on with our thoughts. Many times we end up saying things we did not mean to or end up sabotaging our own efforts. 

This might be the case with those who wish to be rich, yet resent those who floats in a river of money. 

Instead of choosing to identify with the positive aspects of the Rich; their security and success. On one hand, apparent efforts are made to escalate on the financial ladder, yet on the other hand, the same person sets strong limits by focusing on Lack, Envy or Criticism.

Would it not be smarter to learn from those who have reached a goal that you desire? Maybe that time spent being envious and jealous could be better used to network, achieve and appreciate.

Who knows, by learning from those who have reached a goal that you desire; you just may find yourself there as well!!!!

Let's use our thoughts to our advantage. Becoming aware of the themes in our heads can help us decide whether that is the direction in which we wish to lead our lives.

Thoughts don't only become things. They are subtle actions, invisible things  ... That can:

• Help 
• Heal 
• Hurt
• or Destroy

Think about it.....

We Make It Difficult!!!!

Truth be told we make things more difficult than they really are. And we do this based on habits! Mostly bad habits....



We create those habits through constant repetition... consciously and unconsciously. But listen, if we can create bad habits through repetition, we can also create new, better habits through the same process.

But the true challenge is taking the necessary action to repeat the good habits over and over again.


In order for anything to manifest, we must first make a conscious decision to want it to happen... this may be one of the most difficult things we do.

Making that solid decision isn't easy, and in many instances not making solid decisions is what holds many of us back from achieving new and better habits. We know we "want" something different, but too often, lack the courage to commit to that decision that will create a shift in our mindset.

The biggest mistake I see within myself is my trying to "change my bad habits." Trying to change the habit actually makes us focus more attention on it, resulting in an even stronger bad habit. We spend so much time on the habits we don't want, until we sometimes make the habits more powerful.

 I believe we should concentrate on Creating new habits....

We should figure out what we want ... and repeat it over and over again...

Sounds so simple doesn't it?

As a matter of fact this is so simple, until many of us overlook how easy new habits materialize....

 "Clarity is very often too clear to see".

These are my thoughts .... I welcome yours!!!

The D and B word!!!

What do you make or think of this picture?



 To be good is great. To have passion is wonderful. To want more is outstanding. All of those qualities aren't enough... we must have something else to make them come together and stick for the long term.

We need Discipline... lots and lots of discipline ... We need Boldness ... Lots of boldness!!!

Want to lose weight, become healthier, and live a new life? What's going to stop us from eating those chocolate chip cookies, fried chicken or drinking Starbucks coffee? What's going to make us get out of bed and run those miles when we'd rather keep sleeping? How do we say no to those offering us a soda... especially our favorite soda that we used to drink by the case, you know --- That Ice cold Coke?

The answer isn't passion, that desperate need for change, or a specific talent we were born with. Discipline is the glue that connects our wants and needs, turning them into long term reality.

I work from home ... I sit all day .... looking at two computers and three computer screens. There is an exercise gadget just outside my office. I pass by it every day and glance at it, realizing that I need to get on it every time I make a trip to the rest room, to get a bite to eat or to go get that Ice Cold Coke!!! 

Unfortunately, discipline is underrated and rarely talked about in the same sentence as , passion and talent. Those two guys are famous for creating change, yet if you ask them, they'll tell you the truth (if they could speak, but wait -- they can!!! ... they'll tell you who the real hero is. Without discipline, passion and talent can only go so far ~ will only reach a few. And the people they do reach will most likely experience their new success for a short time because they failed to reach out and introduce themselves to discipline.

What separates the good from the great? Talent plays a part, passion takes that talent to the next level, but what allows that next level to keep breathing and striving for even more?


What do you need right now in your life? What is starring you right in your face eye to eye and you refuse to respond? What are you truly hungry for? or should I say, what should you be hungry for?

Listen, we all need Discipline and Boldness in our lives. That being said... Lets reach for it together. It is attainable!!!

Like the picture above:
Be Discipline and know when to face your enemy ...
Be Bold enough to go out and cross their paths...

"Self-discipline is an act of cultivation.

It requires you to connect today's actions to tomorrow's results.

There's a season for sowing a season for reaping.

Self-discipline helps you know which is which."

Internal Injuries!!!

 


 Most of us have gone through physical pain. And physical pain can hurt for a long time. Even though physical pain can take us through a long healing process, there is another pain that can last even longer and effect our lives in such a way that we can no longer cope.

That pain is known as Mental Pain!!!

Physical pain is real. People can understand it. When it comes to mental pain, no one really gets it and a majority of the time you feel alone. The effects last longer because mental pain is always harder to deal with.

• Mental pain can lead to confusion
• Doubt
• Fear
• Suicide
• Broken relationships
• alienation

 Mental pain can lead us a cross-road of indecisiveness!!!

With most physical pain you're able to recover from it, physical pain can heal, most times, but mental pain can linger. Mental pain can take more effort and time. Plus not everyone recovers from it.

Listen don't let past events or past relationships ruin your life ... Remembering that God did not give you a Spirit of fear, but of Love, Power and a Sound (strong) Mind!!!

We all go through thoughts of :

Quit. Don't quit! 

Work. Work harder! 

Want. Want more!

These are all choices we must make at one point or another... doesn't matter what our path, goals, or future destination. We must choose one of these, and live every day with our decisions. Which one is going to be?

Mental Pain comes in many different shapes, sizes, tastes, and visuals...

Like you I'm well acquainted with both Physical pain and Mental pain. I remember so much that I would love to forget. I still see so much that I wish would fade away!!! Instead I choose to take the solution of a very dear friend by the name of Percy Griffin (deceased) once said... "Bernie, think on a solution and not the problem"!!!

Don't stare at your mental pain. Mental pain can cause internal injuries that you may never recover from. But rather think on this: I can do all things through Christ, who strengthen me"


One last thing: What we fail to realize is, Pain's power is increased when we spend great amounts of energy trying to avoid it.  JUST DEAL WITH IT and OVERCOME!!!


We could say so much more about Mental pain!!!

Relationships...

It is said some lives are linked across time... Connected by an ancient calling that echoes through ages  ....It is called Destiny!!!

Have you ever met someone who was a total stranger and once you communicate with them you sense something special about them. It seem as though you've known them in another place and time. Your spirits somehow connects in a way that you a very comfortable with them!!!

I believe that people meet for a reason and somehow they are linked across time. Connected by an ancient calling that echoes through ages ... It is called Destiny!!! They can be far apart in age, but it doesn't matter because there is a meeting of the minds and a link that connects the hearts.

Life is strange, filled with mysteries that are waiting to be explored. I am also convinced that age has no criteria when it comes to relationships. However, that can be debated by what type of relationship a person or persons are trying to have.

Speaking on relationships, they can last for a lifetime or they can end abruptly. It does not matter how long a relationship last or how strong it is, I believe that  everyone has a mental closet where memories are stored. whether the memories are good or bad.

Remember, relationships are where two people share, confide and trusts one another. And based on the information upon which your share can afford them the opportunity to totally destroy you, but you love and trust them not to.

The question is, if you share, confide and trust a person, then why does that relationship has to end?

Could it be because people out grow each other or one may grow in a different direction? Could it be because it was destined to fail from the beginning? Could it be to protect the other? or could it be, because time has intervened? 

Whichever answer holds true, relationships do end and the length of time you held on to it may or may not have a barring.

Either way a heart can be severed into, a life could seem as though it has nothing left to reach for, one can lose sleep because of the pain. It may seem as though you've entered a small boat on a shore and in your unawares, the current has pushed you way out to Sea without you realizing it, because you are so deep in thought and feeling lost!!!

Yet I've heard it said that... Time heals all.

But does it really??????? Your inner strength will determined this!!!


“Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t...

Overcomning Fear....

Growing up I had so many fears. For one I stuttered. And, because of my stuttering I was afraid to speak or shall I say to embarrass to speak because of my handicap.

Yet, as I look back and in the midst of my stammering tongue, I accomplished a lot. I see where my fears, once I stepped forward made me stronger and bolder.

As an adult I looked at the life of Moses as mentioned in the Book of Exodus: This is where God gave Moses a command,, but Moses made an excuse to God because of his poor speaking ability.  Yet God encouraged Moses to go forth, but he wouldn't. Well, he wouldn't the way God initially told him to, because he had a fear. )He did not speak well)... But listen to what God told Moses below:

Exodus 4:10 (KJV)

And Moses said unto the Lord, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.

Exodus 4:11 (KJV)

And the Lord said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the Lord?

 Exodus 4:12 (KJV)

Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say.

 Exodus 4:13 (KJV)

And he said, O my Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send.

 Exodus 4:14 (KJV)

And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart.

Exodus 4:15 (KJV)

And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do.

Even though Moses was a powerful servant of God, yet in my own heart I felt that  he somehow was defeated because of his fears of inadequate speech. Yet I think the word defeated is to strong, but he did disobeyed God's initial directive to him.

Personally, when I spoke and taught I wanted to trust God with the tongue that he gave me. And no, I'm no way near the servant Moses was and Moses was so much more obedient than me.

But by the Grace of God:

• I've spoken to small crowds
• I've spoken to large crowds
• I've spoken in Churches
• I've taught classes

All in fear, but in The Strength of God ..... Fear can paralyze the mind and the will ... You can also find strength in fear. The will to persevere.

Lets examine: Fear enters when we think we can't be successful of what we are being ask to do or knowledge of what we should do. We refuse to see how very powerful we are. Stepping in the light  and not staying in the closet scares us the most.

Your not sharing your God given gifts and talents does not do you, your friends, your family and world justice.

There is nothing great about staying small and living in a closet. You and I were placed here to stand tall and shine bright!!! And this strength / boldness is in each of us.

LET NOTHING OR NO ONE STOP YOU  from REACHING YOUR God GIVEN POTENTIAL!!!

“Great minds have great purposes, others have wishes. Little minds are tamed and subdued by misfortune; but great minds rise above them.”
- Washington Irving

So, let your Great mind rise above your fears!!!

Life.... As I See It!!!

I was born and raised in a very small town in the state of South Carolina named Hartsville. I grew up in a 2 bedroom home. There resided My Mother - Father - Three Brothers and Two Sisters. We never once thought that our home was to small.

As a matter of fact I rather enjoyed our home and I felt it was a very nice place to live. As a child my imagination could reach the highest mountain. In the midst of problems I could hide myself within my mind.

I saw life , well heck ... I really don't recall giving life much thought. I just lived and dreamed.

I enjoyed my friends and I still reminisce on things of old. I now wonder how I truly survived certain things. 

Even when in the 8th grade, when Gangrene had setup in my body, due to an acute case of appendicitis, I just focused on the pain. Not a thought of death. And yes, I could have died. However, it was at that time I began to see life a little different.

Each of us have  different views when it comes to life and each of us have different opinions as to how we should live it. This attitude has long been to opinion of mankind.

However, we do know that there is a way that seems right to a man, yet the end result can sometimes end in death based upon our decisions and attitudes.


Life as I understand is truly a gift from God. Yet we treat is as if it is expendable.  I'm also aware that life at anytime can become very difficult and Life at any time can become very easy.

Good or bad, there are seasons on life. It all depends upon, how you take on life and adjust to these seasons!

We've all ask ourselves this question when thing go wrong or have gone wrong:  Where did I go wrong? How did I get here?   Well, at least I've ask myself these questions!!!

Also in life:
We all go through rough times and disappointments, but realize that we’re all in the midst of creating our own story of triumph through the decisions we make and the actions we take every time life knocks us down. It’s in attempting to reach our dreams that we develop the necessary skills and mentality to overcome any roadblocks that lie ahead of us.

Don’t let a moment of defeat define your life’s outcome. No matter how many failures you’ve had, you still have it in you to create the greatest comeback story of your life.


Be prepared, because this could be tough, but by challenging and demanding more from yourself, you will make your life easier in the process. There aren’t a lot of things tougher to mentally handle than not reaching your dreams because you didn’t give it your all. The regret alone will be far more challenging to deal with than just going all out to begin with.


Every hit life throws at you can either strengthen your resolve or weaken your determination. If your dreams are important to you, then stand your ground and make it clear that you will not be denied. Make it clear to anyone that stands in your way that they better be prepared because you’re going to give it and them all that you have.

Until your last breath, you must fight. Fight for what you believe in. Fight for your dreams. Fight for the people you love. Fight because you refuse to let life’s challenges hold you down. Fight with everything you have because if you don’t, you’ll lose everything. You’ve got one life to make it happen. Backing down is simply not an option.

Remembering not to waste any of life's precious time. Know that there is something to be gathered out of each moment.

We are here for only a short time. We are only passing through. This is a true statement .. "Life has wings and the golden moments quickly passes by"

I would like to put a little pin here: Life is truly not difficult, it is a Joy. Often, when difficult times hit us, it is usually because:

• We've failed to listen
• We refused to trust
• We choose to do things our own way
• We fail to pray (Seek God's guidance). Read Jeremiah: Chapter 29:13
• We followed the crowd
• We were given wrong advice
• Know one taught us
•  ETC

Until you run out of time, there’s still an opportunity to write an epic ending.

Epic: A long series of events characterized by adventures or struggle.
 Listen... there is a time limit on life: So, live wisely, make each moment count, because, if you don't it will surely pass you by and very fast!!!

A World of Possibilities!!!

We were conceived in our Mother's womb, pushed forth from her body, into a world,  crying at the top of our voice.

We did not have a clue as to where we were. All we could do, was to cling tight to the smell of our mother. Even though we did not know or understood the  word trust, yet we formed a bond of trust as we cling-ed very closed to the scent of her body.

As we grew, we also formed a sense of  knowledge and independence, thus stepping out into a world of possibilities. Which leads me into my subject, which is A world of possibilities.

Yes, we know that  most things in this world are difficult to acquire and achieve; they are also possible. Therefore, whenever you face difficulties, know that there are possibilities in all that you seek.

You must realize that All positive change in the world comes from our ideas of what we believe is possible.

People get what they want in life when they reach the point at which they can see themselves having what they seek.

Dream and imagine because Our imagination is the only limit to what we can hope to have in the future.The power of imagination makes us infinite.

Infinite: Exceedingly Great ... Not measurable.

Listen,  Margaret Drabble said ...“When nothing is sure, everything is possible.”

Therefore, Take control now. Forget about the negative thoughts which others have told you – that you are too old or too young. Stop letting the thoughts of others rule your life; stop being weak and cowardly, blaming your lack of progress on those negative programs. If you begin now and become a do-er, you will have earned your right to remain here.


“Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.”
~T.S. Eliot~

“Those who say it can’t be done are either the ones who have never tried or who have never succeeded.”
~Satish Thawani~

Remember, God has not given you a longing to do that which you have no ability to do.” God has equipped you with everything you need to Achieve and be Successful.

Now, it is up to you to go Look for the opportunities in the difficulties, not the difficulties in the opportunities.

Loneliness.....

Loneliness…

Makes the winter’s night seem twice as long… Makes the summer sunlight much to strong

Nothing’s really wrong …. It’s only loneliness…

So stay awhile … We both have stories that are hungry to be told;

Your eyes are warm but I can feel your hands are cold…

Still they’re nice to hold

It only takes a simple yes

The time we spend leaves

That much less, for Loneliness…

Like a love song or an old cliche … Has it’s hideouts but it’s never far away…

Look around you’ve found it’s only loneliness…

So stay awhile, We’ve worn the night away and now it’s almost done … If you could stay a bit of breakfast might be fun…

It’s too much work for one

And though it’s just a

Simple guess…

We’re stronger now; we’ve made the best of, Loneliness…

Waits in silence while the shadows grow … Waits and wonders if it’s finally time to go…

The yes in our hello said no.

To

Loneliness…

This little abstract poem may seem strange or weird, but to me it makes lots of since!!!
&
Its amazing how you can be in the mist of a crowd of people and loneliness can find you!!!

The First Hello ...

The First hello can lead to something beautiful ....  

However....

I believe love can sometimes be accompanied with fear. Therefore, if you are afraid of what love brings, then prepared yourself for beginnings and sometimes the endings of beautiful.

Rarely love is discovered between to people that  are alike. Usually it is between to people that are totally different. I guess it is true ... opposites attract!!!

But their passionate personalities bring them together that they learned to love and accept each other. Despite of their different personalities. And, yet love is still too good to be true.

There is always a chance, if you’ll take a chance you’ll win, but you must position yourself, if someone’s going to find you.

And, when you do ... You’ve got to let them in, because love usually begins with Hello or Hi.

The initial part is over … now the difficult part for many is letting go of their hearts …

One Hello or Hi is how it all starts; you might win it all or lose your heart.

Don’t allow fear to destroy what you feel. Just try and keep it simple and always try and keep it real.

And if being real means you’ll someday say goodbye … Then so be it.

Remember my friend… Goodbye is not the end … it’s a circle. And that circle will work its way back to you again should love fail you this time around.

Just remember Love begins with Hello or Hi.

So simple isn’t it…

These are my thoughts … I welcome yours!!!

Introspect...... What will I discover?

Introspect: To undertake a detailed mental examination of your own feelings, thoughts, and motives.

So, Open yourself with self introspection in Unfoldment of the Great Within. When you do this you will find numerous layers within yourself.

Unfoldment) -Transitive and intransitive verb to make something clear and understood by gradual exposure, or become clear and understood in this way

When you do an introspect of yourself you will realize the mystery and and the numerous latent talents, fears and strengths hidden within yourself. And, comprehending them could be very a tedious job in itself.

Latent) - Existing but not obvious and not developed.

Have you ever wondered why so many people shy away from doing a self-assessment? Doing inventory on their minds, and their hearts. Do you have an answer?

Have you ever stood in front of a mirror, nothing on the the birthday suit you were born in, and starred yourself straight in your eyes and ask yourself honest questions about yourself and answered those questions honestly, as you starred at yourself eye to eye.

have you ever ask God the questions?

• Are you pleased with me?

• are you grieved with me?

• Please give me an honest report.

Have you ever ask yourself those same questions?

Sometimes being honest and taking a personal introspect of ones self can be very difficult. Could the reason be?

• Many of us live a double life?

• Many of us live the life of a lie?

• Many of us have lived a lie for so long, until we believe the Lie that we live.

Could this be you? Remembering, the term you is inclusive, which means I am including myself in this subject.

You know, many of us have mental blocks of who we Truly-Really are.

And... Honesty is still the Best Policy!!!

Listen... Do you appreciate yourself?
Self-appreciation - consists of taking the best measures to adopt ethically and morally correct methods of living. It consists of utilizing the best kind of speech and correct thoughts, which might lead us to perform correct actions at the correct time.

Many individuals prefer to turn to counselors, psychologists and spiritual gurus when faced with internal conflicts and crisis in their lives. But the greatest counselor is among the most intrinsic parts of their self i.e. a person’s internal voice. Our internal voice is the brainchild of our conscience, which works independently from our mind, which are mostly engaged in worldly matters.

(Intrinsic) -  Relating to the essential qualities or features of something or someone.

(Internal Voice) - Existing, evident in, or arising from the nature, structure, or qualities that somebody or something has.

Now to understand your internal voice,  you must understand The Nature Of God!!!

(Conscience) - The sense of what is right and wrong that governs somebody's thoughts and actions, urging him or her to do right rather than wrong.

One of the greatest methods of self-introspection would be to assess our thought procedure. The way we believe plays a really essential role in shaping our personality and internal self.

God has indwelt man with the ability to reason, to be honest and more importantly to be honest with ones self.

Have you ask yourself these questions:

• Who am I?

• What is my purpose?

• Why do I attract certain people?

• Why are certain people are in my life?

• Why do certain things always happen to me -- Over and over again?

• Why am I different?

• What is so special about me?

• Am I a man of integrity?

• Am I a woman of Integrity?

Remember fear paralyzes the mind and causes us to shy away from self-introspection. To me it is like this; If I'm traveling to a place I've never been, then it is important to take out the make, if I truly desire to get to place I'm trying to go.

In others words, you nor I will ever reach our true potential, if we are not honest with ourselves.  So today, join me in performing a Self-Introspect of yourself.


You maybe surprised as to what you may discover!!!

• Why do you run?

• Why do you hide?

• Is it so hard to step into you?

These are my thoughts..... I welcome yours!!!!
