~ Doing things your way is sometimes the best way. I have no fear, because God is on my side. I wonder why it took me over 40 years to realize that not everyone is on my side. It doesn’t matter is they are your blood or someone whom you call a friend. Then again the title family and friend can be dropped down to an associate. They may know your name, but they don’t know you.

~ I am trying to move forward, but I keep going back to “no fear,” and trying to remember where I read it (without going online to find it).  Okay, I went to the back of my (NIV New International Version) Bible to the concordance, but I knew I read it. The Lord is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear?

 

The Lord is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1 NIV

I got up with a plan and I am following through to keeping my word. This time it’s to myself (to be a better me) and I’m not letting other voices in my thoughts. Yesterday as I was playing a game online, an app popped up, and I surprised myself by reading it. I really do not like drinking water, but I know its good for me. Anyway, this app sends a reminder to drink 10oz of water throughout the day. I actually drank half a bottle of water (16oz) with meds and no I normally just drank enough to get the pill down.

 

That was the old me. I have already walked 30mins and drank 20 ounces of water before 7:30am. I was told where I should walk, when I should go out, how much water I drank, and even what I should or shouldn’t be eating. I just stopped talking and tune them out, because I am free to be me.

 

I am walking within the comforts of my apartment, because I know my health better than anyone. A person with a bad back (a temporary set back, because by Jesus’s blood I know I am healed) one has to put in the work to improve themselves and I Will be safe doing it. 

 

One can improve themselves in so many ways, but first they have to have a dream and the strength to follow through. One has to understand some may say they want you to move forward, and although you are hearing the right words, but if you listen closely they’re words have no truth in them.

 

I am going to move forward and no one will stop me from my goal. I have told young adults to find a dream and work hard to set it free, because in order for you to move forward you cannot stay where you are at and no one is going to do it for you. Have faith in yourself as He has given you all you need to be a better you..

           END!!!!!

 

 

Having a plan in one’s head is a start and making a list of things to do.

Following through on that plan is a totally different story.

Do you remember the plan and actually do the things on that imaginary list?

Have you forgotten that list altogether or your mind has temporarily gone blink. Meaning, you know you have to do something, “what is it” is the question you keep asking yourself?

Taking a deep breath and start going over what you normally do every day.

If that doesn’t work?

Relax with your favorite hot beverage.

Coffee with flavored creamer for me.

(Laughing)  I am or was laughing was, because as I was preparing for my coffee. I went towards my coffee stand and notice a cute cup I never drank out of.

Someone once asked me, “I bet you have a lot of cups?” I told them “no,” but it’s nice to have more than one. Who knows when you are going to have a friend or two come over.

I am ready for coffee as well as tea.

I have always wanted a coffee bar. 

This is as close as I can get 

a coffee bar.

I remembered what was planned 

the night before and only done one thing.

Well, my eyes are open, and after I enjoy watching “The Real”. 

 

• Getting into the Word (Bible)
• Going online to find my real job
• Work on my blanket (crocheting)
• Work on my cross stitch gift
• If I can get inspired I will work on my book.

 

As I continue to type this thought, I realized I am keeping my word by working on my blog, and posting at least twice a week. (Smile) 😃

 

  The

         End!!

 

 

 

Waking up with the taste of tomatoes is a little different from the bacon and eggs (If one eats pork, which I no longer eat).

What to make a quick omelette with cheese and tomatoes and some toast on the side. 

Then you might as well as fic some grits.

That all sounded like a good idea until I walked into the kitchen.

A change of plans,after I opened the patio blinds, followed by the door, and it isn’t too hot today. 

Today would be a great day to enjoy 

my coffee and a book.

If I eat a big breakfast 

I would just want to go to sleep.

Boiled some water for a little pasta

and lunch became breakfast.

I didn’t remember to take a picture until all of the food was gone.

Okay, I can get my coffee ready. 

Nope, because I remembered the bugs.

I did put on some bug spray as I am working on this story on the patio and plan on getting into the Word next.

I am smiling, because I am keeping my word to myself:

 

1. Studying the Word more my way. Which is to write everything down and ask questions when needed.
2. Enjoying time on the patio.
3. Drinking more water and  exercising.
4. Staying positive.
5. Believing in myself.

 

The

       End!
