Reminiscing!
What if you read in a book begin with the end in mind, What would you think the meaning of that statement was? How about this if you begin thinking about what you would want people to say about you at the end of your life. Is the life you living right NOW on track? I am for ever thinking and reexamining myself on a daily. I want to be found guilty of SERVING and certainly not ignoring the compassion that goes along with it.
Thought for the day
With your words are you drawing people towards you or are you pushing them away. Think about it. Also keep in mind that not everyone will like you but to dread you is a problem you need to address within yourself.
With your attitude does it make people want to be around you because you are friendly or are you just a show to be with? In other words are you drawing the right people to you and can you be called a true friend?
NEW YEAR NEW ME 20172017 OVER VIEW FOR ME
On a much serious note this year so far is about me caring for me emotionally, physically, spiritually among other things. Mostly I have found that I have accepted many things that I really should have stood up and said something. I have noticed after doing a blast form my past that I had stop doing and being who I am to being a not so sure as to what is expected of me walking on eggshells kind of lifestyle.
All 2016 I took selfies of myself with and without smiles and noticed that I stopped doing my hair and stopped really caring about my facial expressions (mean looks and whatever stares). They revealed a person whom I did not know or even want to get to know.
Also found myself accepting things that were meant to be hurtful and harmful to me emotionally and block what hopes and dreams that I may have. People who are JUST in my life holding me back by NOT supporting me or being there when I need them, but I seem to be there for them. HEAR ME IT STOPS NOW!
2016 I have placed value in people who didn’t feel the same for me not mention the talking down as if I was a child they felt needed the a full explanation of what was being said. Even to at times one has felt the need to talk harshly as if to scold but yet hold a half thought turnabout of way conversation. Yes that is a thing, took out of a book I recently read. Noticed I have become a doormat for some a revolving door for others. I have accepted not being good or intelligent enough for others (pretended not to know).
Also over the years, allowed others to define me and point out MY every flaw.
So I serve notice to those who have never once mentioned among you have you been there for me you are done here. If you never said an encouraging word you are also done here. If you always had some type of negative or mean thing to say you are also done here. If you bring about stagnant or backbiting or even being a stumbling block, yes you are done here. If you are only here in my life because you feel the need to teach me, you are DISMISSED!
My goals and who I am has changed and will not go back to the way I used to be. I enjoy writing again, singing in the rain, praying, reading my word, learning new things, feeling the outdoors on my skin (wait here there are snakes, but with caution yes), enjoy walking and talking (yes that is a thing when going to and from classes), enjoy doing nails, making jewelry and repairing them as well. There is a whole new ME to explore THANK YOU JESUS! I accept this challenge of a second chance to really get to know and understand Evangelist Michele Richardson without all the bearers that was once before me.
