Speak it!

I think we as people should be more aware of what we speak, our words have power!  I like to speak more towards those who are chasing a dream or goal, those who are trying to better the circumstances of life, but this message is for all.  On a daily basis I hear and see many of my friends say "Fml (fu*k my life) or give a million and one reasons as to why they can not do something, or achieve something.  When we speak these diminishing words, it harms our inner being, therefore harming our outer universe, we begin to set ourselves up for failure before even trying.  Even if you as a person do not have the ability or credentials to achieve what you set out to achieve in life, all this can be practiced and obtained through consistent action, but we must begin to create the belief in our minds first, while setting out to complete the task. Therefore, instead of downplaying or saying you can't do something, begin to reassure yourself with positive affirmations on a daily basis, such as "I can" "I will" "I love myself" "I am..." and so on, I believe this will generate a feeling of gratitude and love within, and give you the power to take positive action.  Sometimes it is not what we are doing, but how we are doing it.  Ask yourself this, are you going after that vision with a positive attitude and mindset? If not, you are going after something that you yourself don't believe you can have, and if this is the case, how exactly do you expect to receive your blessing.  Speak life into your dreams and goals, speak life into your everyday activities, anything is possible, stay and speak positive! God bless.

Family.

Today I have been thinking about my goals, plans, and what I want to accomplish for myself and family one day.  Family to me is very important!  Family doesn't only include people from my immediate blood line, but also close friends that I have.  Throughout my journey in life I have seen many people come and go.  There have been people who have come into my life for a day bringing joy then pain in their absence, and others who have been in my life for many years, where the relationship has been inconsistent, up and down, love and hate, but the end result was always love, these people to me are family.  There have been many times while chasing this vision that I have been down and out, no idea of where to go, no clue of how I was going to manifest my next move or even meal, all I had was prayer & family.  That's why I want to give back to these people in some way for the help and guidance they have done for me in my lifetime, especially my parents & sisters, who have known me for the duration of my life, they have instilled certain teachings in me that have played a big part in the person I am today, and I am forever grateful.  Family is unity, family is loyal, family is not always clear, or positive, but family in the foundation of life, family is love.  We all have family, whether it be your immediate family, friends, or teammates.  My words of advice are to cherish these people, keep them close, but know your boundaries, continue to work and grow in order to help them grow, its a chain reaction.  Have a blessed week!! ;)

Recycling Pain

Have you ever wondered why certain things happen in this life we live, why we come across certain souls we connect with and keep, also souls we connect with and lose?  Have you ever wondered why things sometimes just do not turn out the way we expected or planned...?  Have you every wondered why we feel happiness and also pain..?
There are many different elements that make up our reality on this earth, many different emotions we experience time and time again, it is sort of like a cycle that we can not escape, but can adapt to.  To recycle something means to "convert waste into reusable material".  Therefore pain is something that we will feel at some points in life numerous times, but we have the control mentally to overcome that pain and turn it into something positive.  I have experienced many different things in life that have brought tremendous pain, and have broken me.  One day after prayer, I had an inner revelation that gave me the wisdom of turning pain into power, or recycling the waste of pain into something positive.  Do not let the pain of your day to day life determine your future, it will come to pass, use that hurt and transform it into positivity, positivity and love will alway conquer the illusion of pain.  Recycle, and overcome!
