Positivity Shall Reign

                                                                                 Sometimes I feel like giving up,

what's the sense?

No matter how hard I try to keep the peace

they always try to get the best of  me.

But I have come to the realisation that I am Stronger than I think.

Stronger than I would ever give myself credit for.....

Six months ago I would have stressed myself to the grave. It got so terrible that I was constantly sick.

Well I have decided that I will not let stress take me over, I  have turned a new page and  I am ready to write POSITIVE into my life.

No longer will I allow people to throw NEGATIVE energy at me, I will block that out with POSITIVE.

The negative things and people will not get the better  part of me in 2014, I will overcome ALL challenges with a constant SMILE on my face because I am being tested and I will NOT fail.

I am happy, I have life, I have POSITIVE friends and family.

Negative I suggest you take a back seat, as a matter of fact...GET THE HELL out of my car...#positivityshallreign

Little Simple thingamajigs!

I often sit and wonder what are the things which really matter. Then my thinking just leads me in one direction to the things that really matter to me.

It really doesn't take a lot to keep me happy and content, its just the little simple thingamajigs that really count.

You need to know that it is never necessary to go all out to please me by buying fancy material which are only pleasing to the flesh and not my soul.

I'm a kinda girl who enjoys the soul pleasing stuff....I think about my needs more than my wants....

Today  he asked me "what would you like for your birthday?" and then I thought...

I would like to wake up in good health on that morning with you by my side in good health as well....cuddle with you and listen to the sound of nature, the sound of each other's heartbeat and thank the Lord for life.

I don't need a material gift, because God has given me my greatest gift when he blessed me with a husband like you. Caring, Loving and trustworthy....those values in you I cherish every single day because I know life doesn't get any better than that.

So the money, the jewellery and all the other fancy expensive things...keep them...Give me 'Little Simple thingamajigs'! 

Dedicated to my husband!

Anti-Anger

No matter how hard you may try at times not to be angry with someone or at something, that anger is REAL!
That anger, That frustration...That HATE can take years to build up, but no matter how hard you try at some point it you will explode and things could get pretty dirty!!

The element of your frustration and anger crawls under your skin and prowls when you are at your weakest, it eats you up inside like a bad cavity.

The frustration is REAL! 

That annoying feeling to have that anger eat you away...it hurts most when it touches the heart and you're holding on to life while still holding on to that anger.

What do you do? You get angry some more because nothing can change the way you feel....NOTHING!

Don't you just hate when all of this hits home and you realise you're so damn angry you could hardly speak??

Sorry you say, are you really?
Sorry? Save it!!

You ain't sorry cause this 'ANGER' will come again!

People Pleaser?

Pleasing People is so hard to do. That's why I don't try to please people, I just do what I know is right and best for me. 

Too many people sit down and just criticise everything that's going on around them. I mean there is nothing wrong with constructive criticism, but when you know for a fact that you can't do better...its always best to keep your mouth shut and just observe.

I am really tired of people who just talk talk talk talk and have NO action...can't do a damn thing and just criticise the people who actually try. 

Before you start criticising people, make sure that YOU are in tact. Make you that you don't live in a glass house.Make sure that your house is built on a rock and not sand.

Try to say something positive to someone today...try to make them smile, it might just be the only smile they get for day. 

TRY TO BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN OUR WORLD!

Success?

How does one measure success really?

Is it measured by the level of education  or is it the fancy clothes, shoes and other material things you may have?

I think success is really measured in different ways by different people.

Some may walk around all high and mighty because they wear the latest of clothes and shoes or have the latest electronics. Some may say I am very successful because I have a sound education, I am so qualified that I can nail any job I choose to have.Some may say I'm successful because I am saved and I have God at the center of my life.

But when you think of it judging success by what you have can never be success at all. When you die what are people going to remember you by? Do you really want to be remembered by the just the fancy things you had in your possession or do you want to be remembered for much more than that?

You walk around with you head held high chanting how successful you are, but what do you have to show?

As I walk this road of life I will never want to be remembered for material things, instead I would want to be remembered for the way I treated persons who I came into contact with. I would want to be remembered as the person who changed someone's life just by a simple word of encouragement or even a smile.I would want to be remembered for keeping God at the center of my life.

That is what success means to me....being genuine to others and keeping God in the midst of every single thing I do!!!

Others may not think of success this way and you are free to your own opinion.

But what ever success you may choose to strive for,
while you're on the path of 'your' success....NEVER EVER try to step on others to get to the top, cause when you fall, you fall hard.

The Past is HISTORY

They say the only way you can truly live life is by letting go of the past and the things you can not change.

The hardest thing however is not knowing how to let go of that one thing that keeps punching you in the ass every time you try to move on. 

We have all done things in our past that we are not proud of, but it's how you rise and make a change after all of those mistakes and regrets.No man is perfect and we can fall at any time in our lives. But are we going to stay down?

I'm not! I'm as good as the next bad person, and I refuse to be taunted by my past, REFUSE to!!

I will not allow my past mistakes and regrets tarnish my rich and blooming future!! Instead I admit that I was stupid and I let go because I can not change it. I can't take back anything, but I'm willing to spend the rest of my life correcting it and you should to.

Don't sit and punish yourself for any thing you may have done in the past that you are not pleased with, just let go and move on.

Let go and be free....Let go and strive for better tomorrows....LET GO AND FLY!!

Rendering Evil

I will NOT render evil for evil, it makes no sense.
What are we really left with when someone does us wrong and we turn right around and do the same thing?

People will fight you all the days of your life but its up to you to decide if you going to accept defeat by rendering evil or keep on fighting by praying about the situation and for the individual(s).

I've had my fair she of trials with people who will stop at nothing but to hurt me over and over again, but when I look at them, I feel so sorry for them because the only reason they are trying their best to bring me down is because they are so empty and bitter inside.

They find joy in making others unhappy and spreading lies and constantly sabotaging you.

I will NOT render evil for evil, it's a waste of MY strength and My happiness.

Instead I will rise up EVERY single day and pray for these vindictive elements that walk this earth. I will pray for EVERY single snake that tries so hard to slip into my home and make me unhappy. I Will not be move by you Conniving ELEMENTS!

Not today! Not Tomorrow! NOT EVER!
