Prove Yourself to Yourself

Good afternoon Sunshines!!!

You know many of us need to be in a relationship to feel loved, or feel we're doing something. I know you know your already loved but when it comes to "proving" your love or worth to someone ehhhhhhh makes me cringe. I mean, it does take time for us to know who's real or not BUT do you think that proving every now and then about who you are needs to be repeated? Do you think that staying in a relationship that belittles you (and we should know some signs maybe this small article helps: CLICK HERE), you need to re-establish that you are worth it? Well, my opinion, NO! 
Why in the world would you accept by staying with someone who doesn't give a 10cents about what you really are about. It goes to females and males, we all know that it goes both ways. If someone doesn't respect you then why would YOU THINK they will change because your staying, no. It doesn't work like that. They keep doing it and getting to do as they please because you are staying…showing them you are accepting that negative behavior.  

Yes, I know, I can hear some of you saying…"But I "love" him/her." 
Read this clearly:::: You may "love" this person BUT does this person "love" you? 
Now repeat that! Your telling me that those negative actions, those negatives words, are coming from a person who loves you? If you "love" this person you wouldn't hurt them right? of course not. But now turn the table, ask him/her that question and I bet you that you already know the answer.
So why forcing that person to see that you are worth it, why forcing life to give you this person that is literally pushing themselves AWAY from you. Let it go!!! LET IT GO!!! Your worth it. I know it and you know. The person who knows it will treat you with the respect you need in life just for that 2am call.

Let it go and walk away. 


I know there may be obstacles standing in the way, maybe kids, Hey I been there. Walk away! Your kids are worth it. And the longer you stay the more your kids will be taught how to treat you and others. Don't like the sound of that? Do yourself a favor, do what you have to do and keep moving forward. 

YOUR WORTH IT!!!

Change It Yourself

Good Afternoon Lovely People,

A lot of us complain so much that it becomes a stress factor to others. I mean, you could complain but are you doing it because you're tired of trying or because you do not want to keep trying…and want to pretend you are?


Confusing right? Well then lets make up our minds. Do you want to change your path? … Then stop opening doors that lead you to no-where. Or probably will lead you back to where you don't want to be. It all takes time. Everything takes time. if you want to rush it, then it won't be exactly what you need. And you'll be back in square one, complaining, again.

Your life is not the same as another person. My reason to continue is not the same as yours. You need to find yours and let it give you the strength you need to continue to do what you need to do. If yesterday was a day of people telling you no and doors being closed, that doesn't mean tomorrow it will be the same. Your attitude towards yourself, towards life should stay positive and help you know that tomorrow won't be the same.
Your yesterday may have been living in a dark place but that doesn't mean your future will be like that, today your seeing new things. Enjoy them. Feel their scene, and have that little Faith grow. While your in the middle of everything, let it be. Enjoy the beautiful things that life offers, that we humans usually take advantage of, and you'll notice a peaceful feeling. 
There's no shame of complaining, or where you been…TODAY is the day for you to tweak that negative feeling of complaints and walk with a humble heart and a mind set of "I Can". Just because you been through hell and back doesn't give you a right to complain everyday and night. Change that thought and work hard on yourself. So a year from now, or 5, you can say you been there done that AND now I am here. In a better place. No need to be rich or have tons of clothes…but make it inspiring that with all those complaints you had about your life. You still manage to take control and make a life of what you need to be an inspiration to another person.

Ahhhhhhh, its kinda hard to do, I know. But its all worth the try because it becomes a habit…A habit of goodness and within time, you'll see and feel the difference. Go ahead, say your story and watch me turn it around in words that will make you want to do it live.
