Something New

I am 39 years old and sometimes I feel like I have missed so much. I have never been on a plane, I have never been on a train and I have never been on a beach. I think it is really sad that my list of things that I have done is so short. I used to be afraid to take chances. I used to be a little on the reserve side. I am at a point in my life where I'm ready to try new things and see new places. I am ready to take a chance on my dreams and the things I want to do. I am praying for clarity and direction. The bible says we have not because we ask not. I know God will give me the desires of my heart and I desire SOMETHING NEW!!!

Love

This week we celebrated what I would call, National Love Day!!! As Valentines Day approached I contemplated on what I would do for the one that I loved and I decided to do what I do daily and that was to continue to show my love and appreciation for them being a part of my life. I decided long ago, once I figured out what true and genuine love is and  was, I wouldn't wait for a calendar to tell me when to show my love. If you truly love someone one day out of the year is not enough to show them how much you love them! In my world it is the small things and the kind gestures that show love. It is the unconditional friendship that is shown that shows love. It is that listening ear, that gentle touch, that kind word and encouraging word that shows love. My question today is, Are you loving unconditionally without boundaries? What is your definition of LOVE???

balance

how do i begin to balance life and all that i have going on? i am working full time, i am a single mother and i am taking 3 online classes!!! i'm still trying to figure out how to balance it all. i'm trying to make sure all timelines are met and i'm trying not to lose my mind in the process. there are times i feel so overwhelmed but i have to stop and pray my way thru...i know i can do it all so i have to keep reminding myself as well as encouraging myself!!! 

my first blog

Is it me or does the teenagers of today think they are slick and have it all together?!!? I am a single parent with teenagers and they seem to have forgotten that I once was where they are now and the game hasn't changed but I have gotten wiser! The things they are trying to do I have either done it or I know someone that has. I am considering putting mine under surveillance. I feel like I need an extra pair of eyes, ears and hands!!!
