Sometimes our days are like an eager exciting date. Just waiting for us to reach out... so that we can relate. Take a tango today and get inspired by someone near. First u have to reach out though.... which includes removing some of that fear. The more we relate... the less we hate. Love relating w people. People are the pulse baby. Get jumping! Your date ..orrr ahh... your day is waiting for that dance. Ask. Live. Love. Move. Inspire. Take a Chance. U goooo with your dancin' Happy feet. At that rate... u never knowwww who you MAY meet.

Things that make u go hmmmm. In the locker room yesterday this sweet wise woman cleaning the bathroom...pipes up and says..."people be all actin" like its their birthday. Coming in here talking bout want they want. Acting all crazy. It ain't about them. Not their birthday...now is it?" ... awww just wanted to hug her. U know i did. U knowww what time it is. celebrating what matters and more importantly whooo matters.
Isn't it wonderful to get to a place where we stop trying to "figure things out". When I reside THERE in the " not for me to understand" spot... I have such Peace and joy...butt... thennn... Sometimes I head out to visit "reasoning" and realizeeee that the traffic is heavy there anddd there is usually no where to park... lol... bc lots of us go to visit... there (the land of reasoning)... Soooo for today... I turn around and headddd back to "it is not for ME to KNOW" land and thereeee I find myself well and loving my space. May peace be with you where and when u travel today. FOR SOME things are just NOT for US to KNOW. Amen to that. Father KNOWS Best!
I LOVE ROCKS… No, Really… I have always LOVED ROCKS!!! WAYYY Back from my earliest childhood memory. I collected rocks, stacked rocks, and searched the woods, the parks, and the streets for unique rocks. Rocks have always given me a great sense of STABILITY. No matter WHAT was happening around me I had “Something” to hold onto IN THE ROCK... Even as a little girl I think the biblical connection of God BEING our rock “maybe” just clicked with me. So reallyyy I was searching for HIM AND clinging TO HIM WITHOUT even completely UNDERSTANDING the association. Too funny how that works. Fast forward to adulthood…. STILL LOVE MY ROCKS. Prayer rocks, Gratitude rocks, Little rocks, Big rocks. I am a rock person. CAN YOU TELL? If you are IN my life JUST KNOW... that at one time OR another YOU will get a rock. IT IS MY WAY Of TELLING YOU that ....YOU ROCK! YES, Rocks make GREAT GIFT too. They are inexpensive…. They don’t break. They last forever AND best of all THEY serve as GREAT reminders to LIVE with solidity. Rocks to me represent a Permanence, Strength, and Steadiness. Something to HOLD onto for a refuge of sorts from the day to day pressures. A reminder of WHO Is IN charge. ;) In closing I think of a rock like a pillar, a strong tower, a refuge so check this video out because I think it GOES w my whole message here about why I chooseee to … LIVE my life w a daily ROCK. I know rocks can’t speak but when I have one in my hand I feel something speaks softly to my soul. Security baby in THE ROCK. ;)- HEY – IF you are reading this PLEASE send me an email with YOUR mailing address to [email protected] AND I WILL mail YOU a rock. DO IT RIGHT NOW BEFORE YOU FORGET…. It will be a mystery AND FUN to see what scripture you end up with. So in my last blog the message I wanted to convey could be summarized like THIS….
“Don’t be afraid to be a “little” weird once in a while. YOUR friends may find it refreshing”… ME. I mean WHO wants to hang around a bunch of straight laced people? Welllll... Don’t answer that… laugh out loud… Me …. I surround myself with people who are different… who can intrigue me… who can bring out my weirdness AND challenge me. If you need a straight laced friend pleaseeeee don’t choose me. Reallyyy, I would let you down, b/c I don’t roll like that. Too uptight of a way of living for me. J In closing I challenge you THIS week to get out there and continue to be the TRUEST version of YOU… whatever THAT looks like. The closer we get to living as…US… the bigger mark we leave on this earth. IF you want people to remember YOU…. Well…. sometimes you have to just beeeee YOU… I know… I know…. The world wants you to BE …. THEM… or THIS … OR THAT….NO…No…No... No more posing... JUST BE YOU…. THIS WILL work in your advantage. People will remember YOU the closer you authentically GET… to BEING… YOU SHOW UP today and BE SEEN. WILL THE REAL YOU PLEASE STAND UP. |
