The war behind the smile
Although some people find it difficult to do, I love smiling. It’s not that I have perfect teeth (nor are they the whitest), but because I’ve got so many reasons to. This may come off as weird, but when I meet people or am talking to someone, and they smile, I often try to figureContinue reading “The war behind the smile”
It stops with 21
All of the negative thoughts and conversations you have with yourself, regarding yourself, it ends today. The pessimism, hopelessness, doubt, fear, and anxiety, has no place in your life, so stop allowing them to take up room. No longer are the days of uncertainty, sadness, heavy burdens or heavy hearts. Everything that has held youContinue reading “It stops with 21”
I was used
I’ve gone through a lot, but I did it all for you. I didn’t intentionally mean for things to happen as they have, because if the decision was mine, it would’ve never been made. Excuse me if I sound bitter, but I was used to make things a little bit sweeter for you. Do youContinue reading “I was used”
If that’s how you feel
It annoys me when someone is expressing themselves, and while doing so, they’re cut off with the words, “Stop crying, and suck it up!” Usually, the expresser typically does, but why should they? Why can’t they let it all out, instead of being forced to keep it in? I often regretted when I’d pour myContinue reading “If that’s how you feel”
Do it for them
I had an encounter with a young mother on yesterday, and I although I didn’t have an ounce of strength to lift myself up (it was a rough day), God gave me just enough for her. She was struggling mentally and financially, and at the point of no return. She stated, “I just want toContinue reading “Do it for them”
The other side
Does it seem as though the storms are lasting longer, with no signs of hope in sight? Have your cloudy days blocked the sun rays, making it impossible for you to see the light? Has your joy been drowned in the river of your tears, and anxiety has smothered your will? Are you overwhelmed byContinue reading “The other side”
Connect the dots
I believe there are people in this world we are meant to be connected to, and others we’re not. When we link with the wrong people, we tend to experience delays, setbacks, and are often influenced to go against everything we know to be right, just so we can be with someone who we knowContinue reading “Connect the dots”
Worth the wait
It took me longer than anticipated, but I finally got it done. I am so excited, happy, and proud to say, I have yet another book on Amazon! Never in a million years, did I think I’d have two books on one of the largest platforms in the world, let alone one. More times thanContinue reading “Worth the wait”
He constantly stayed
When your spouse left, because the love was no longer there, because of His love for you, God stayed. When your money ran out, so did the people, but because of His love for you, God stayed. When your family disowned you and stopped coming around, because of His love for you, God stayed. WhenContinue reading “He constantly stayed”
