Something that really just annoys me in a funny way..
So I follow a lot of creative, cooking, and fun blogs and I check them out during the day when it’s slow at work… But one thing that I cannot understand is why some people feel the need to recreate things that don’t need to be redone…like making homemade marshmellows or goldfish crackers!!! Some people even make their own milk.. I mean why even go through all of the trouble, just buy it in the store… *smh* Some people really have too much time on their hands! lol
Being lost in your thoughts can be an entertaining but a very scary adventure.. It’s time for me to get off work now….
I think more than anything I have to trust the people I’m the closest too and if that trust is not gained, it makes me rethink a lot of your intentions to why you’re in my life in the first place.
Regrets are nothing more than opportunities to do it better next time.

YOU.
As soon as we are alone…inner chaos opens up in us. This chaos can be so disturbing and so confusing that we can hardly wait to get busy again. Entering a private room and shutting the door, therefore, does not mean that we immediatel;y shut out all our inner doubts, anxieties, fears, bad memories, unresolved conflicts, angry feelings and impulsive desires. On the contrary, when we have removed our outer distraction, we often find that our inner distractions manifest themselves to us in full force. We often use the outer distractions to shield ourselves from the interior noises. This makes the discipline of solitude all the more important.
I like the feeling…
I like the feeling of knowing God. Because it’s more than a feeling. It’s deep within me, it’s the constant hum-hum-drum of life’s pattern. It’s as true inside of me as the air in my lungs. It’s the feeling I get when I am so blind-sided by His love that it brings me to my knees. When I realize how worthless everything is without Him. It’s that feeling when you see people through the eyes of God - you see they were crafted in a way only something greater could have created. Something not of this world. Something so much bigger. I think that feeling is the best kind of feeling there is.
The Ones Behind me…
I have to say when i’m not at work or doing grad work.. I travel to some real neat places, events, sights, sounds, and see some things that need to be remembered and never forgotten. We take like pics on our cell and we post them to FB, but I want to start having tangible evidence of the wonders that I encounter when i’m exploring and I need to start doing some major scrapbooking because I want my family that comes behind me to see what this gal has been up to most of her life. I want my kids to see what adventures their mommy and daddy got into way back when.. give them inspiration in their world of chaos… Yeahhhh..that sounds nice…
There are some you will lend your arm (help) to and try to hold them up and they seem to keep falling. But remember: some people just don’t want to get up. Don’t get caught trying to pull someone’s dead weight. Whatever you do, do it in love.
Speak on it!
You know how there are just some things that are either said or you read that just hit you mentally and you’re like YES.. That’s it.. It explains your situation and what you’re going to a T! Yes!
Yeah.. that has been happening to me all day. Self-Affirmations…
Thinking about making me a board!
Worshipping God is far more than creative expression, but worship is a lifestyle. We live to worship.
I saw the leaves changing colors this past weekend in the mountainsand I realized if those leaves have to die to self and create a new thing then so can I. Change is inevitable.
There are some things that I’m still sensitive to and I haven’t truly let go. But I have been here before and I know with time. Just a little time. I will be okay. And everything will work according to Gods timing.
Some words are empty; its important to know the difference between empty words and words full of life and honest promises.
IT’s OPENING NIGHT!!!!
Wow.. I have been neglecting Tumblr a lot.. For a good reason.. I’m playing Sophia in the musical: Color Purple and it’s been a great whirlwind of emotions this whole ride. But whenever I have been in show, I have always had some major change happen in my life and I thank God that I can say, that’s it’s always for the good. It’s times like this when it’s opening night that I realize that I’m doing the right thing and enjoying all the right types of life. I’m doing what I love. I have my family. Friends. Health. Love. Joy. Happiness. Peace… and I’m here. I’m alive. About to go make this sold-out audience a hit and just enjoy it. Let it all Sink In. You live the life when you are doing what you love. It feels good. Real good.
