Love is one of those things that when you open yourself up you take a serious risk. You put it all on the line and in the end you may get screwed. The best thing to do is to just be honest and open with yourself and your feelings. If you love something and you have tried your best and it just won't give you anything in return then it is best to let it alone.
The most important love is Self love. It is the most important love that exists and you have to have that for yourself FIRST. If you continue loving something or someone that puts no deposit into your spirit and soul then you are losing and you are selling yourself short. In addition, you truly do not know your own worth.
We all are a work in progress and we all develop into our blossoming flowers in our own due time. Patience is Godly. We cannot look for things to happen for us when we want them to. We can not expect people to be the way we want them to and we can not rush the blessings that God has in store. They will come when they naturally are supposed to. Continue to trust in the ebb of the universe and the power of positive thinking. Have faith in the things and people that you truly love and allow life and time to prepare the fruit that is still ripening.
Maturity does not come with age. Some people aren't equipped to see the beauty that is in front of them. In addition, sometimes there are so many toxic influences and people in their ear who want what they have, that they can't discern what is the best thing for them.
God never puts more on us then we can bear. Sometimes the load can feel crippling but what I know for sure is you are NEVER alone. God is always in the midst and you will never fail if you keep that at the forefront. Never give up on the ones you believe in and never give up on yourself.
Live & Love on purpose!

MIRROR ME.
So many people who know me personally....know how PASSIONATE I can be about things that I love. Things that make me excited. Wheather it is food, a new scent, a program, a book etc. I can literally become a walking commercial if I am in love with it.
Rightfully so, I have been this way with the people in my life too. I have proclaimed and professed my love for my Nana time and time again, because she raised me and taught me so many valuable jewels. She instilled lessons in me by just DOING and BEING. She taught me to be a lady, to love unconditionally, to be excited about seeing those who we love and being confident. I love her and I will forever remain grateful for her existence.
Same rings true for my little girl. She is my light, my life. I am ready to mop the floor with ANYONE who tries to inflict harm, ridicule or fear in her. She is my purpose and God favored me when he brought her into my life.
There are many others who I love and speak on their importance in my world freely.
Recently it hit me that there is someone else who means a great deal to my life. Even though I have said it before and many know how passionate I have been about this person, He and I went through some pretty rough times over the past year, and GOD knew what was best for that time. He was ripening my mind and spirit for me to reach the epiphany that I have come to over the past few weeks. I am absolutely 100% sure that I am in love with the man who came into my life and helped me when no one else did.
This person was there for me during one of the most trying times and if it was not for his effort and thoughtfulness I may not have been able to sit in the seat I have today. It was his DEDICATION to "my" life, to my daughter and to my world that helped catapult me to where I am.
Nobody is perfect and he surely is not, but he has a good heart and he has always been GOOD to me and my daughter. He is a beautiful person inside and out and I am thankful for him. He is an amazing son, friend, father, lover, and DJ. He is truly everything I never knew I needed. He has proven and shown me how patient love really is. I will never second guess him or what we have.
It does not take a whole day to recognize sunshine...but for some of us it may take a season or two to fully feel the warmth of the sun radiating our insides...our hearts and our spirit. For some of us we don't know love because we had no formal training in how to love. We grew up watching situations and things that occur that were not of LOVE. We were not shown how to accept it when it was genuinely given. Our experiences can harden us and take the ripeness of the blessing away....but when you know yourself and you get to know GOD you will allow yourself to begin to feel Love and experience it on a different level.
You strip yourself of your ego, your pride and your inhibitions. You allow yourself to be free....to live.....Uninhibited! You are alive and you have purpose and you see the purpose of the ones around you. Life is for the taking and every experience, lesson and person is here to help teach you how to keep going. I am thankful for HIM.

Give it all to me....WHOLE & FULL
I came across this quote recently that stated " After all this time, the sun never says to the earth...you owe me. Just think what a love like that does". I read that and felt an immediate gush of tranquility. It made me feel alive, warm, and I felt love instantly.
I am a woman who needs love and affection like I need air. I know some women who all the gushy, fairytale, love is a "non-$!!#$ factor" as they say. Give them some Louie bags, some shoes and take them around the world and they will be fine. NOT ME! I need to feel love uninhibited. I need to feel it like I am the wind beneath the one I love wings. I need to feel the spirit of cupid himself embodying my inner core when I am with the one I love.
Love is life's vitamins. We need it. We crave it. It does not have to be all intimate either. We need to feel it from the ones we choose to spend our company with. Our friends, family, co-workers. It makes the days feel lighter. It gives you a extra pep in your step. It provides the flavor in the bite!
Recently I was having dinner with some of my girls and she mentioned something to me that made me feel sooo good and appreciated. She simply shared her sincere feelings about who I was to her. I was so touched to know that this woman appreciated me and saw me for who I truly was to her. That is what it's all about.
We all want that in some capacity. To know we are truly appreciated and loved for the intention we have for those around us. Key word INTENTION. We are only humans, and sometimes signals get switched, but if the intention is right it all makes sense later and the one you love will know that.
Don't hold back on expressing your true feelings in an effort to protect your feelings or ego. At the end of the day...it may be too late. Life is short and you deserve all there is for YOU!
Be of love if you want to attract it back to you. Whatever you are putting out will naturally come back your way ALWAYS. It is the way and ebb of the universe. Trust in it. Believe that you are worthy of only the best and you shall receive just that. Love never hurts.
"Love is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs". I Corinthians 13:5 If this is happening.....then you are not experiencing love and it NEEDS to be rectified for your own sake, and for the sake of what GOD intended for you.
