Insecurities...

Good morning lovees!! It's going to be a beautiful day! Maybe not weather wise, but just in general! I'm alive and well, what more do I need to make today beautiful?

Insecurities...that's what's on my heart/mind today. Insecurities can drive a person crazy! But, they can also ruin relationships, create unnecessary drama, and many other issues. Insecurities cause you to wonder about or second guess everything a person or group of people does/says. Like...why didn't he/she respond to my text? Do they not like me? Are they mad at me? He/she had a weird tone during our conversation, wonder if they're mad? They were whispering in the other room, is it about me? They put a post on fb, does it have to do with me? The list goes on and on of things that can cause us insecurities. Here's the thing...if you wonder, ASK!!! Don't sit and stew over things and further perpetuate your insecurities! Then, once you've spoken to them, take what they said at face value and let it go!! Because the thing is, they've already moved on and let it go. So the only person you're hurting is you!

Have a blessed day friends!!

Love and hugs...

Rise and shine...

Good morning friends!!! It's a BEAUTIFUL day!!! Sun/Son is shining!! Time to rise and sparkle!!! Go out today and share your light with the world! You cold be the only light they see. Uplift, encourage, motivate, and most of all, show love to the people you come in contact with today. People all over are hurting and need to know someone cares. Let that someone be you. Have a blessed day friends!!! Shine bright, be kind, be loving, be a blessing...

Love and hugs...

Refresh...

Good mornings lovees!! It's another beautiful day! Spring is just around the corner! Spring is so refreshing! Everything is new and fresh. Nature is waking up from its long winter nap to reveal it's beauty to us. Sometimes we need a refresh, a wakeup. Perhaps we've been "asleep" in a relationship that's toxic to our well being. Maybe it's a dead end job that's not taking us where we want to go. Maybe it's time to refresh your health, or your diet. Whatever the case may be, it's time to wake up!! Time to stop being complacent and ignoring the obvious! Wakeup and refresh! Life is waiting! Have a blessed day friends!!!

Love and hugs...

Beauty in all things...

Yet another gorgeous day today!!! I so LOVE snow, but I too am now ready for spring! We can't stop the rain/snow from falling, so I will just enjoy it's beauty like always! I truly love finding the beauty in all things. People especially! Beauty isn't always what's on the outside. I've said it before, we need to look past the exterior and see the heart. Then, and only then can we see the true beauty in each of us! Each of you has an incredibly beautiful heart....some of you just need to give it some TLC. Yes your heart may have been hurt, but it is still beating, is it not? That is a beautiful thing!! You are beautiful!

Love and hugs...

Perspectives...

Good morning lovees! It's a beautiful morning!! It's a great day to examine your perspective! What do I mean? Well, it's kind of a glass half empty or half full kind of thing. For instance, do you get irritated when hearing a baby cry in public? How about you thank God it's not yours, and thank God for your hearing! Clothes too tight from last season? Thank God you had enough food to eat! House isn't what you'd really like? Thank God you have one and could your family safe and warm! Car running a little rough? Thank God you have one! You see, if you just change your perspective, you'll see the many, many blessings you have surrounding you daily!! Have a beautifully blessed day friends!

Love and hugs...

Challenges...

Good morning lovees! It's going to be a beautiful day! Rise and shine my friends! And keep on shining! Challenges, we all face em. Believe me when I say, I too face them! Just this past week alone I've faced many! No stove, no floor, an extra person in my home, 3 extra dogs, a ton of extra stuff and no where to put it. And the list goes on. But you know what, it's not what happens to us, it's how we handle it. I could easily freak out and shut down with all that's gone on. But I choose to look at the bright side! I'm healthy. I can still eat, even tho I can't use my stove. I get to spend more time with my baby girl. Bubba is enjoying the dogs. It's all a matter of perspective! In the face of adversity, I choose to see the blessings. What ever you are facing today. I challenge you to step back and look for the blessing, the silver lining. It's there, trust me! Have a blessed day friends!!!

Love and hugs...

Fearfully and wonderfully made...

Good morning lovees!! It's such a beautiful day today! Thank you God for another blessed day!! Today, I want you to know, that you are beautiful! You were fearfully and wonderfully made by the creator of the universe. You were NEVER created to be neglected, abused, used, controlled, or manipulated. You were created to love and be loved. You were created to do great things! You my friend were created by Him and for Him. Realize your worth today! If you are facing any of you challenged listed above, seek some help. Don't let anyone make you feel or believe that you are less than! You are so much more than!! Have a blessed day my friends!!

Love and hugs...

Negativity

Good morning lovees!!! It's another beautiful day!! Time to rise and shine, then keep on shining!! Sometimes in life, we come in contact with negative people. People so infected with negativity and drama, that just being in the same space with them can "infect" you too. We need to immunize ourselves against negativity! How do we do that? There are several ways. First, check your positivity levels. Be sure you have a full tank! Then, analyze where the negativity comes from most. Is it just the world, or is it someone close to you? If it's the latter, perhaps it's time to incubate those people for a while. You don't have to completely cut them loose, because they could surely use a dose of your "medicine"(positivity)! But you can lessen your time around them for a while. Lastly, guard your mind. Do not let the negativity get to you and bring you down!! Once infected, it's a disease that can spread quickly! Have a POSITIVELY blessed day friends!
