Since August...I think that's my last post. I've fallen off,slipped up,gone up, tripped up, tripped out, & came back to my inspirational senses. (we'll get to those in a minute)
OFF MY CHEST:
As some of you know I have grown this new found relationship with God, yes God...not religion. Religion post boundaries on the possibilities of God. As a song line states,"all religion made of me was a sinner with a stone tied to my feet." I just feel like I need to tell the world...aka...my readers...aka...my friends, I know that not everyone knows God, believes in God or cares that I do but I just want you to know that because of HIM I've become a BETTER person/friend/sister/daughter/co-worker/lover...etc & I am so thankful for that. I promise that I will respect you in how you view God, but please respect that I <3 HIM!! for everything HE is.
I value my friends a lot, especially my sisters and when I first started trying to wlk my Christ walk, I was hesitant to share that with my sisters. my sisters?? really? the people that love me for all my flaws, my stupidity, my insecurities. Yes I was afraid to talk about God to you,even in passing because I didn't want to upset you. But then I started thinking if they loved me then, why can't they love me now?! I hope you guys can still love me regardless of what I believe in. This isn't meant to come off in any other way besides honest. I LOVE you ladies. always & forever.
INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHTS:
As I've been growing and learning, I've come to a couple of revolutions. I think they can apply to anyone regardless what they believe in:
1) we are not here to be alone (if we were we wouldn't have friends/sisters)
2)you only live once so....
make it count. do something that will leave ppl talking about how great u were as a person....no one is going to remember anything else about you. only the way u made them feel on a personal level.
3)make mistakes learn from them and grow...
4)let ppl be ppl and cont.to keep them in your thoughts
5)don't do something u don't want ppl finding out about
6)try giving & helping others...that reward is greater & more satisfying then satisfying urself. :) i promise
7)life is short, stop planning...planning didn't work out the way you wanted it to before...um it won't now either...just live.
8)wake up and look outside and smile the world awaits you!!
9) the supporting actress/actor is just as important as the lead
10) why gain the whole wide world, if you are just gonna lose your soul?!
I was in the ER Friday night, with chest pains & short of breath. HOURS HOURS HOURS later they found nothing wrong with me. I still have a hard time breathing. I went in Friday night at 8 got out at 6:50 sat. morning & guess what? I went to work. yep!! trying to stay focus and pay bills. I WAS EXHAUSTED.
I went to the Voice Specialist today,turns out my chords are swollen (which I knew) and I need voice therapy; I start in two wks. My ENT told me in as lie words as possible...quit your job it's going to ruin you vocals. So yeah, I gotta get on that!! It's just motivation to move on! THANK YOU GOD! gotta leave that place.
I am currently planning open mic at my church dec 3rd, I am sooo excited. I've been asking for something to validate my talents,not that they need to be validated but what better way to use my gifts!
As some of you know my bro is coming out of jail soon, Jojo got a car! She works for a doc's office and the doc had a leather interior, 2000-2002 mini van, keyless entry, automatic, vcr/tv how much you ask?? um $100.00 bucks! yeah you read that right!! it was def an awesome GIFT!!
well friends, I <3 you dearly. stay real...it's all we have left.
j-bo. <3
