They can’t handle your growth

During our life journey, the goal for many is to evolve. We are being more nurturing to ourselves and growing. Not everyone can handle our growth nor do they want to encourage it. Don’t fret though. It’s ok to have doubters, let that be the motivation that WE NEED to keep going!

Nourishment

Are we truly taking the time out to Breathe? Are we trying to create a Safe place for our hearts? Do we even know how our traumas from childhood affected us into our adulthood? Prayer, meditation, exercise, writing, reading… Do what it takes to bring some peace to your hearts and Souls. Then let the Growing Begin

Parents get to KNOW your kids

As a parent, we do our best to raise our kids to be decent individuals. Even though there are tons of books on parenting, it’s just a role that you have to learn once your in it.

Some of the biggest mistakes that parents make is set the idea of who their child is in their heads versus learning who their child really is. Parents can have the thought that their child will get high marks in school like they did or become that all-star athlete like they were and it’s not fair. Parents also raise their children to be a certain way, obtain certain values and when that child goes astray, we sit and wonder “why?”.

Please do not take this post as me saying that we can’t set rules and the tone for the upbringing of our children. My point is that a certain point in the adolescent/young adult stage, we need to communicate with our kids. We need to understand their voice, likes/dislikes, how they see the world and thoughts about love, etc. Once this happens, your son or daughter will present their true selves to you. It doesn’t mean we have to agree or even like it, but we do have to show Respect to them.

The easiest way to Learn..

Is by Listening.

We constantly want to talk or talk over people but rarely do many just sit back and listen.

When we listen, we learn and observe from the one speaking. Think about it.. in a class room you are able to receive the information if you are being quiet. In a relationship of any sort, you would only know a person’s view by listening to them. Even when we are doing some soul searching, we listen to that inner voice for peace.

Do you listen or only hear when someone talks? By listening, you can receive knowledge, opportunities for growth and much more.

I, too, am learning the importance of Learning through Listening and I hope you do the same.

Where is the Love Wednesday edition: A friend… then A Lover

How many of us really can say we took the time to let a friendship blossom before wanting the Romance with a significant other?

Take a moment to let that Sink in.

Significant other…. What makes them Significant? Best friend(s)… why are they the Best? We don’t take enough time in these categories, especially when it comes to romance. Don’t get me wrong, nothing is wrong with getting swept off your feet, or feeling it was love at first sight because for many that is their love story. Like anything in life, plant the seed, nurture it and watch the growth that takes place.

Has this been you? Have you been haste to enter a romantic relationship and then it failed abruptly? Were you friends? Let me know your thoughts friends!Thanks for reading!

Age is a state of mind baby


Hey great people,

Happy Monday to you! After having a conversation with the hubby, I’ve been really considering my position in life currently. Like you, I too, have many hopes and ambition. I catch myself saying “32 is around the corner”, constantly.  I’m also thinking, “age is a number” the value of knowledge to gain is more important. 

So, “age is a state of mind baby” will be my go to Motto. Lol. As long as we are given another chance at life, we have time to grow and improve. 

Take care peeps! Thanks for reading

Food for thought

No matter what it is. Faith practice, romantic relationships, friendships, or jobs etc. When it comes down to it, it’s only a title and titles can change. However, a relationship can develop and grow over time. Think about it. Have a blessed one friends
