You can’t see how far you’ve come if you aren’t aware of where you’ve started. ✨✨ Sometimes you gotta sit down in the middle of your mess and look around. I mean really take it all in. Get your camera and take pictures.📸 Get some paper and take notes. 📝 Find a canvas and paint …
We have the power to change our lives simply by changing ourselves. ✨❤️✨ Change yourself, change your life. You’ve heard it and it’s true. It’s the changing ourselves that is the hard part. Denial, fear, or just plain lack of insight keep us stuck in patterns of behavior and thoughts that perpetuate our unhappiness. How …
Isn’t it the sad truth that we are taught so much more by our enemies and those who irritate us than those who are within our inner circles and those who we easily love? From those we dislike we learn patience, forgiveness, humility, acceptance, and most importantly how to truly Love. We learn from those …
God, help me see what stuff is mine, see what stuff is theirs and to help me to carry my own stuff. Amen. Helping someone with their stuff is good as long as we remember it is their stuff. I’m not talking material needs here, I’m talking Spiritual and Emotional. We can be empathetic without …
It was a beautiful sky tonight filled with colors and clouds that stirred my heart and soothed my soul. I paused and took it in… knowing despite its perfection that it would change and the colors would fade away into darkness. That’s the thing with the sky… and with life, it’s always moving, changing.

I was reminded that God knows my struggles, my pain, my fears, my limitations… and yet he can turn the mess of me into GOOD! God was the one who gave me the talents and gifts that can be used to fulfill my unique purpose! He alone knows how I should best use them and cultivate them for my BEST life. Yes, I am a part of His divine team sent here equipped with the ability to spread His love and help draw others closer to Him as I listen to His direction and allow Him to continue to cultivate his creation. The truth is, God wants YOU to live out your true purpose as well… and will lead you to where you need to be so that you can influence others towards their true identity and purpose as well.
Our lives are filled with color. At times we are tangled within the threads of blue… suffering from loneliness or loss. Later we find we are immersed in the deepest of green… experiencing abundance and the richness of a new start! Let’s not forget red and its passionate hue! Within the red moments we feel …
27 days of sugar-free living have passed. I’m doing much much better everyday with less and less cravings. I have found that I am beginning to plan what sugary treats I may consume when I finish this challenge. Part of me can’t wait… and another part of me is scared. to. death. The “what ifs” …
I made it day 24…. down 3# from week1 and I am feeling pretty good. I can’t say I feel better than I did before I quit, but I might and just not remember how I felt because of the difficult early detox days! 😉 I’m having 80% less cravings too so that’s been nice! …
Today marks the 22nd day of my sugar-free journey. I’m doing okay avoiding sugar, but it’s clear that I am naturally, instinctively, and perhaps even habitually drawn to sugar. I’d settle for honey or agave even but in my original commitment to this challenge I gave up those two as well thinking it might help …
