Happy Fathers Day

Happy fathers day One of the most amazing men Ive ever known is my grandpa!

My father past away in 2007 but to be very honest I didn't really know him almost my whole life. I didn't even meet him until I became a teenager. I'm sure like many fathers mine did what he felt was appropriate for the time. I had a step father that was possibly the worst parent ever to walk the earth. But that was all okay. How you ask....... Because God blessed me with my Papa. And even though I didn't get to always live close enough to see him every day sometimes even every year to this day his love has made a lasting impression on my heart. I didn't even understand the depth of his love until I became an adult. It took someone very very special to me helping me open my heart & learning to love myself to learn & understand I had love around me my entire life I just couldn't see it. Because sometimes our opinion of "LOVE" isn't what the world gives us. I guess I have pretty high expectations of what LOVE should be & that's truly because of my grandpa. He is the kindest, most amazing & most wonderful man Ive know my whole entire life. He has not only taught me what a man should be he has taught me about the kind of person I long to be. Ive never once known of my grandfather to lie, cheat ,steal, purposefully hurt someone. Ive never known of him to be abusive to my grandmother in ANY way physically or emotionally. And believe me the women in my family cant test any mans sanity, lol. When God made him he went above & beyond on the salt of a man. He packed in as much good as a person could hold, then he sprinkled a little more. I may not have had a wonderful father to speak of but Ive ALWAYS had an amazing Grandfather So weather you have a wonderful father, grandfather, uncle or even if you've got a mom doing both jobs remember to appreciate them. God doesn't always give us what we want but we will always have what we need Happiest fathers day to everyone ミ♥✌☺☀∞

Sweet Sweet Saturday Morning

 

As you do, so you become ✌ღ☺

Be more concerned that the best won't happen, than the worst will. Plan for success not failure. Failure is NEVER an option!! You must keep trying until you succeed. Stay committed to your dreams. If you don't passionately believe in your dreams who else will? Only have one plan, plan "A". Plan "B C & D" will only distract you for achieving plan "A". Success is earned & is a choice not a right. Your given dreams for a reason. Will you let them die with you or will you create a legacy that lives on long after your gone. Only YOU can decide to take the necessary steps to achieve your dreams & goals! As you do, so you become ✌ღ☺

The purpose of life is to be love,

Some say the purpose of life is to just be happy. No mater the cost. That your "  own"    happiness is all that counts. Yes we should be true to ourselves & yes we should find a life that makes us joyful. But life is so much more than just that. I'm sorry, I don't believe the purpose of life is to just always be happy. Because if that's truly what it is I've already missed the mark. I think life is much more. I think the purpose of life is to be love, to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate, to be understanding, to care for others even when it hurts. It is, above all to make life matter, to do daily acts that count, to stand for something, to live to love. To have made a difference in the lives of those you meet. To live a life that was about more than your own happiness but a life that spread happiness to everyone you have been blessed to meet. To make a difference & even if only in the smallest of ways leave the world a little bit better because you have been given the chance.

As much as you try to forgive, forget & look past you cant erase what was. What was is not what is nor will it ever cross into what shall be but to completely deny what was is only denying part of yourself. Its hard to see good on the surface of any pain or hurt. But things in life happen. Sometimes they are wonderful & other times, well not so much. We do our best to tackle the things life throws at us sometimes falling short of happiness. But its not the falls or our flaws that mater. No its something much more important. Its the way you persevere. The way you set your eyes on the good & come what may you keep going. Bad happens sometimes it hurts more than you could ever imagine but that is never what defines you. No, its the beautiful picture being created that maters. What is & more importantly whats still to come.

That person is a "PERSON" too

We are all a mixture of good & bad, right & wrong, strength & weakness, love & even bitterness. To say your only one thing is to not only lie to others but to lie to yourself. When we are faced with those moments when its easy to judge or condemn we have to realize that person is a "  PERSON"  too. Just like you & I. We are all walking through this journey together. We ALL have burdens & troubles to ...carry. No mater how great you think someone has it EVERYONE has problems. Try to take it easy on each other & yourself. Help people when you get a chance. Let people help you. I've had a very tough few months & when I got sick again & faced with other life issues I pulled away from the ones that loved me the most, the ones who are always there. Not because I didn't want them around but because I didn't want to burden them with my problems. I not only hurt myself but I hurt them too. Remember people are in your life & love you because they want to. If they didn't want to they could walk away at any moment. Try to never take those people or their love for granted. And those people that test you remember they are there for a reason too. Appreciate all those around you even the ones that test you. They all help make us stronger.

trophies & crowns

 I LOVE looking like a real woman & having curves. Im not perfect way far from it in fact. I don't have time to judge others. And I'll never look down anyone unless I'm helping them up. No I don't look like I should be on the cover of muscle & fitness everyday (well hell any day) but I'm totally okay with that. I love the body God gave me but I also love living & enjoying life. And I know living in the gym with a six pack didn't make ME happy. I love being a woman & looking like a woman. I love being soft, soft skin, soft heart & soft feet, lol. I'm not trying to be anyone else or top anyone else. I'm just being me. The only race I'm running is my own. I have plenty of trophies & crowns in my attic the only trophy I want now is one of true happiness.
