Leaving my Past..

Life is so hard and it’s only going to get harder as you grow older. I am over 50 and I wish someone had stressed on the point to ā€œWork smarter and Not enjoy your youth,ā€ because I should have been saving instead of spending.

Then again I should have followed my dreams and worked harder to set them free. I put aside what I wanted, to go for the quick cash, and thirty plus years later I am paying for it.

There comes a time when we stop and look back and see all of our mistakes and wish we could go back and fix them. Today we see the young doing the same things and we try to tell them to change their steps. I get, ā€œYou sound just like my grandmother.ā€  I say, ā€œthank you,ā€  because we don’t want you to make the same mistakes we did. We want you to be better.

I am Smiling for the next chapter in my life. It may have taken me longer than it should have, but I am stepping out in my best chapter. I will not be bugging you to better your life, you will realize my wordsworth later, but as for me? 

I AM MOVING FORWARD and LEAVING MY PAST in the PAST……………

I’m Coming Out…..

Matthew 5:11-12 NIV

[11]  ā€œBlessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. [12] Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. 

https://bible.com/bible/111/mat.5.11-12.NIV

I awoke with these thoughts in my head (not word for word) just the meaning within these words, because I am going to walk into the lion’s den (work). It’s cool, because just like Daniel, I will come out okay.

Daniel 6:22 NIV

[22] My God sent his angel, and he shut the mouths of the lions. They have not hurt me, because I was found innocent in his sight. Nor have I ever done any wrong before you, Your Majesty.ā€

Don’t Procrastinate

I don’t know about anyone else, but I don’t like being rushed or told what to do. I know what I need to do and I may not move as fast as I did thirty years ago, but I always finish my projects. 

Then again maybe it’s just me? Now I don’t feel like moving and putting my task off longer than necessary. If people just leave me alone, things would have already been done.

Oh well, I’ve wasted enough time and it’s time to turn my music up and get to moving.

1 Corinthians 10:12 NIV [12] So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!  https://bible.com/bible/111/1co.10.12.NIV

You’re up and ready to start your day,

 but all you can think about is

 a cup of coffee or two. 

Will you start

a project?

Will you put side

your need to

relax with 

Coffee.

It’s hard to think

about anything else,

but coffee.

Project is going to have to wait,

because I want coffee.

And Coffee I shall have.

Beside who can work

If all they can think about

is coffee.

Which One is the Right One?

I know it is not good to wish for something to happen, because wishes don’t come true? I started a printify account, but couldn’t set up my etsy account.

I then learned about printful and how to set up, but I didn’t care for it. I couldn’t design my mug as I did on printify, but I couldn’t set up my etsy account.

I was thinking about canva? Well, there is something to think about. I am going to get to work and see what I can come up with.

I know something big is going to happen, because I am not giving up. I may not be where I want to be, but I am not where I was. I am moving forward….
