My Body

This is stepping waaaaaay out of my comfort zone ... But I want to make a point ... So here goes.....When I look into the mirror ... I see that I no longer have the body I once had ..Or the body that i wish I did .., I see the body that I do have .., it's the body that has carried three boys in it as well as a precious one that didn't make it ... It's the body of a woman that's 48 and that has carried the weight of the world on her shoulders ... The body that dealt with and escaped domestic violence ... It's the body of a woman going thru changes and it's MY BODY.. And while I work every day to improve it I have had to learn to accept it and love it because it's the only body I am given ... And it is mine~ 

 

Dont Let Life Pass You By

 

It sprinkled today... Nothing major just a small storm cloud passed over ... But it made me wonder how many people noticed it... Now a days it seems everyone is so busy with other things they don't notice life around them ... I hate when I go out and I see people with their faces in their phones ... While out eating .. Shopping... Driving.. Even their kids sporting events!! I'm not one of those people ... I want to talk to the ones I'm with ... I want to see my son play ball!! I don't want moments to pass me by and I miss it and I think more people should be this way ... The tweets... Snapchats ...Facebook and Instagram post can wait ... Take time to enjoy life and make sure the ones you are with know just how much they mean to you... Because we aren't promised tomorrow .... So be in this moment now~

PRAY FOR AMERICA

I do not know what it is like to be a black person,and to carry the daily worries and fears you carry on a daily basis....but I do know what it is like to be a mom...a daughter...a sister...and a friend. I know what it is like to cry over the violence I see happening every day on the news...My heart aches....We have to find a way to stop the HATE...we are all human beings...and ALL OF OUR LIVES MATTER!!! We need to stand together with love in our hearts and stop the hate and violence!! #PrayForAmerica #AllLivesMatter #StopTheHate #StopTheViolence #HealTheHateredDontCreateIt #KeepLoveInYourHeart

More Love...Less Hate

Im sure by now you have listened to and read the stories about the Orlando shooting at a night club. They keep calling it an act of terror.... Im not saying that it wasn't....since reports say he pledged his allegiance to ISIS...but I feel this should first and foremost be called an act of hatred!   Why in this day and age do we have so much hatred happening????  It makes no sense to me...why can we not just love one another....stop judging...stop being so critical of everyone...just LOVE one another...regardless if you believe in the same things...we are all human beings!!! 

When tragic things like this happen we automatically jump on the  we need "Gun Control " band wagon....Im not saying that things dont need to be changed...but I think the change comes in the form of things like get rid of automatic weapons....there is absolutely no reason why anyone needs to own one of these...I believe in the right for us to have guns to hunt with and guns to protect ourself with....but there is no reasonable excuse for anyone needing to own an assault rifle or any automatic weapon of any kind. 

Second, I feel that if for any reason a person is on the FBI watch list....they should not be able to pass a back ground check to purchase a gun. This makes no sense to me. There's a reason they questioned him more than once in the last few years. And whatever that reason was...should have been enough to keep him from being passing a back ground check. 

I also am tired of the "gunman" getting any kind of notoriety...I dont think we should give these people recognition. I dont think we should continually keep saying their name over and over again til its burned into our brains. We tend to remember them and forget the victims. Because we continually hear about the bad guy and not enough about the people who lost their life. So I plead to the media please stop doing this. 

As we once again find ourselves trying to over come another tragedy I pray that we can just join together...show these haters that LOVE always overcomes HATE....and as a nation we will stand together in LOVE!!!

 

Be Kind

We interact with people all day .. In real life and on social media ... But how well do you actually know them... I bet in most cases you don't know them all that well... You only know the parts that they choose to share with you...and the truth is almost everyone is battling something you know nothing about ... So be kind~ #bekind #positivevibes #goodvibes
