Don't Let the Day Get Away

Every day of our lives is like a garden. It requires care, attention, and protection. If we never weed, till, or water our gardens they will become so overgrown until we won't know our planted treasures from the clutter. The weeds, being equal to life's distractions, and the flowers, being the people and activities that deserve our planned and prioritized efforts, cannot peacefully co-exist. Our lives are worth every moment we can take to plan our days, organize our thoughts, master faith over our fears, and contribute love to a world in need. Take time every day to plan and think ahead about the ways in which you can extend the life of your treasures and rid yourself of the unnecessary fodder that would steal time and opportunity if left unchecked. Even say out loud, "My time is valuable because it is the conduit through which my life flows. My life is valuable because of how I cherish my time."

Be Encouraged,
Speak Life!

Me Too... My Story

Yeah... Me too... When I see this I can't help but think that I am one of millions. As I reflect back on my own experience and I relive the pain for being raped, I get a little indignant, a little confused, sad and overwhelmed. Truly, I am not completely healed from my 2006 experience. I am, however, on the right path. How do I know? I don't want him dead any more. I want him out of my head and away from my emotions - but I don't want him dead. My experience began as a friendly meet up to go have drinks and party a little bit as I was a tad bit depressed and just needed to get out of my own head, so-to-speak. We were meeting at his house and then off to the Wild Hair in Wicker Park. I was truly looking forward to a different experience with someone whom I trusted to take care of me. You see, the guy who assaulted me was a friend, a brother. We sang at church together and we laughed all of the time. I NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT HE WOULD HURT ME THE WAY THAT HE DID...N...

Financial Freedom Comes With A Price

As soon as I declared my commitment to being financially free, my world began to crumble slowly... Things happened to the contrary. But what I have found is this, there are principles that are true no matter what phase you are in in your quest for financial freedom and they are: As much as it depends on you, stick to your plan. If you get off track, get back on where you got off and keep going. But don't quit! Give yourself a break. It's been hard enough being a slave to debt. Don't allow the weight of this journey crush you. Get on top of it and stay there. Create a journal and write out your frustrations as well as your victories! Pretty soon, your victories will be most important and far more frequent than your disappointments. Seek positive role models who have been through this process. They understand the highs and lows of your journey. Let it go. Yes! Let it go. You are doing all that you can to make it work! But at some point it is an act of fait...
