Morning Workout

Surprised myself by not playing games, watching TV, or looking through Facebook videos. I got up and actually started working out. Take a calming breath and let it out slowly, knowing this is a great way to start my day.

I realized I had self-consciously started my journey on being a better me. I’ve started working out here and there, but I remembered doing a ten minute chair workout just before going to sleep last night.

When the TV went off, waking me up at 2am. I usually reach for the remote, turning it back on, and going back to sleep. The fact that I got up and did a leg workout before watching something on YouTube. I realized I was keeping my word to myself.

I will lose this weight. I will be a better me. I am smiling at the woman I used to be and will be again. Now it’s 5am. Maybe a cup of hot tea, watching the sun light the sky for another day.

My Words…

I don’t care how I am feeling, when asked “I am okay,” or “I am blessed.” I refuse to say anything less. I will Not give satan a chance to prove my words wrong.

Yes, there may be pain in my body, but I know I am healed by His blood.

Mark 5:34 NIV [34] He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”  https://bible.com/bible/111/mrk.5.34.NIV

Exodus 15:26 NIV [26] He said, “If you listen carefully to the Lord your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals you.”

https://bible.com/bible/111/exo.15.26.NIV

I am feeling sad and overwhelmed, because of an unhealthy work place. It’s okay, because this place is not my real job. It’s a job that pays a few bills, gets me out of the house, and the motivation to set my dreams free. I did say, “I was okay right?” Well, I am beyond that.

Before Coffee

   I am singing my favorite song : 

                                       I’m gonna get some coffee –

                                                              some coffee

                                          – some coffee 

                                                             – some coffee. 

                    I’m gonna get some coffee 

                                                   – some coffee right now.

I was thinking about going in a different direction. Then I decided, before I make any real changes coffee and get into the Word. 

My mind is on the pumpkin coffee for right now, LD*

Thinking Positive 

September 11th, 2025

Hello future,

First, a big thank you! I know it’s crazy to be thankful for what may or may not happen, but I honestly believe” Words and Action” is powerful. 

{} Matthew 12:37 NIV [37] For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.” 

https://bible.com/bible/111/mat.12.37.NIV

James 2:22 NIV [22] You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. 

https://bible.com/bible/111/jas.2.22.NIV {}

I am no longer just living day by day and praying tomorrow will be better, because I am not guaranteed tomorrow. Then again I am not going to act like tomorrow won’t come or accept it won’t be better.

It’s past time I put aside all doubts and follow up on each step I’ve learned to set my dreams free. That person who was unsure and afraid is gone forever and I am standing proud and I will make sure my tomorrow is better than today.

{} Isaiah 41:10 NIV [10] So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

https://bible.com/bible/111/isa.41.10.NIV {}

Rethinking….

Rethinking: “How to restart your dream and Stop Asking for Help”? 

I have lost count of the amount of time I wasted thinking of ways to restart my life. I looked up information and videos and articles. I have a good idea on the do’s and the don’ts, but patience is not what I have.

I thought I could cut out all that boring information, by asking for help, and just focus on being creative. I knew that was wrong. The more I learned about the other side, (the business side) the more my head hurt.

I kept on telling myself, “just focus on being creative,” and wait. I’ve asked people who I thought would or could help me. I didn’t want to believe that no one would help. 

It is cool, because I am taking things into my own hands. An online class is a good start to setting my dreams free. Smiling, because I am Not going to let anything nor anyone S.T.O.P ME!!!!
