I posted this to remind everyone we are a work in PROGRESS! We are changing everyday. We are fighting battles people no nothing about! I know that I am trying everyday to be a better person than yesterday.! Who can relate?
To a person that’s struggling this message is for you. Change comes over time. Not in a instant! If your working at it you will see change. I whole heartedly believe that if you put in the work change will come. NEVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF! You are not perfect no one is but if you strive to make a difference in yourself you will see change. I hope this message reaches you and encourages you!
Much Love,

ps,
Don’t forget we are only human we will make mistakes!
Good Morning! Happy First Day of March!!(this was suppose to be posted yesterday morning sorry).
Okay everyone I encourage you to watch this video. You don’t even have to read my words but PLEASE watch this video.
I saw this video below on my Facebook on Valentines Day. This video was moving because that very morning I was speaking with a coworker about how lost I was in my life. Then Steve Harvey speaks of something so life changing. Just Jump he states! “Don’t let fear keep you from ever taking that jump.” That was me. I was letting the fear of failure keep me back from doing something great with my life. He went on to say “god gave us each a gift at birth.” I will say that is something I have always struggled with the gift god has given me. I always ask myself what is this gift God gave me? I know God gave me a gift. I came to the realization that when its time he will reveal that gift to me. I also learned that it’s all about patience.
What Steve was speaking about touched my heart. He made me realize that is okay to take that jump. He went on to explain that when you jump you won’t land on your feet, you will get scars, scrapes AND you will bleed. You just have to remind yourself that do not let fear stop you.
“You can not exist in this life, you have got to try to live.”How moving is that one statement. Living life is one of the hardest things a person can do. Yea we are breathing. We get up and we go to work and then we come home. IS that living life? NO. We get so caught up in existing, we forget to live. We got to take our gift that God has given us and we have to JUMP.
My parting words to you. “If you do not Jump, your parachute with never open. You will never know what god really has for you.”
Lord please never let me settle for anything in my life. Give me the strength and courage to follow my dreams and goals. You know my true potential so I ask that you push me towards it. In 2016 I want to do so many things. Help transform so many lives. I know I can’t do that if I don’t leave my comfort zone. I’m making a pledge to myself to never settle with anything in my life. Always strive for more. If I don’t I will always be wondering.
To the person that is reading this never settle for anything in your life. “If you want more then get more”. Life is to short not to achieve your goals in life. Love yourself. Love your journey. Love life. Never give up.
