Staying Calm….

So many words are jamming in my head and so many thoughts going in different directions and this overwhelming feeling of unsureness is starting to bug me.

 Matthew 11:28 NIV [28]  “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 

https://bible.com/bible/111/mat.11.28.NIV

Romans 12:9 NIV [9] Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. https://bible.com/bible/111/rom.12.9.NIV 

Philippians 4:6 NIV [6] Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 

https://bible.com/bible/111/php.4.6.NIV

2 Corinthians 4:8 NIV [8] We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 

https://bible.com/bible/111/2co.4.8.NIV

Reading the Word has a way of calming me down. I am about to get into my world (working on my book) and holding onto a smile as I will be going to my first interview next week. I will keep praying and if it’s the job for me, then I will be leaving the mall with my next job.

RESEARCH is NO FUN

WORDS:
GOOD and BAD

By Lisa D

INTRODUCTION: Questions.

I had so many ideas on what I wanted to write, but between my tummy and the thought of crocheting while it’s still light outside. I realized I don’t have the energy to write out my thoughts.

I am still going over the answers I had about a virtual mailbox. I checked a few on BBB.org and didn’t get enough answers to get close to ending my curiosity.

I believe I am going to stop here, because I have no idea how I got five different pictures across my screen. I am just grateful they went away so I can come to an end to this unusual short post.

Then again, I believe I better get something to eat, because one cannot do anything if one’s tummy is yelling.

A Short Thought…

One cannot but smile when you realize you are still getting closer and closer to setting your dreams free. You are trying not to laugh out loud and scream, “I told you so”. I wouldn’t do that, and I am thinking about keeping my success a secret…….

Short Notes…

I started writing short notes while I was at work. I have always thought words have a way of changing how I feel. My favorite line is, “write down how you are feeling, the good, and bad things.” It could help clear your mind.

Once you can see all sides in black and white, it will help you make a better decision. Then again notes can be a reminder of positive thoughts or a quick laugh…

Who Are You?

I am surprised I let that door open and my guard down. I have been so careful, not getting too close to anyone, nor letting anyone getting close to me. 

I am not going to lie, that my feelings were hurt when someone I called my friend has turned that friendship to their own gain. I guess I am going to have to start building that wall again, a little stronger, and will take longer to let the next person get closer to me.

The old me would have closed everyone out and stayed hidden away, but the new me says that’s not who I am. I will not run nor will I keep to myself. I cannot and will not be afraid to trust someone who may or may not be my friend.

I may help when there is a need, because that is what friends do. Then again if that same request is repeated over and over to a point where I am your answer to your request. I am NO LONGER A FRIEND.

It’s cool, because I am cutting myself off. Just like that Kenny Rogers song https://youtu.be/7hx4gdlfamo  from the movie ‘The Gambler’ – “you have to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, and know when to walk away.” (I really should watch the video to get the words correctly and not just go by from what I remember)

It is sad that you are now a passing friend, but all in all it’s a good thing. I am not turning against you all together and one day we may talk this out and try to start over, but it all depends on you. You may not have seen your mistake or thought nothing of it. 

I will wait and answer your next call and see what the outcome will be? Will we start or will we be passing friends. Passing friends are just people who exchange small talk if seen out and about and keep it moving.  I cannot wait to see who you are or who you will be?
