And all that jazz

funny how...

We hear people speak and boast of supporting, helping one another, and all that jazz.

When you ask questions,  try to grow,  or are assisting others grow and just need a bit of info...crickets. I have gotten,  I will get back,  I haven't forgotten,  I am on it, I know I owe you... countless reasons as to why I will never get paid or an answer. Some will provide answers that are so vague,  I should have just goggled it.

Since becoming an entrepreneur,  I have lost hundreds supporting other small business. Yes, lost... some never shipped packages, some right out have stolen from me,  some have taken funds allocated for other things and just kept it!

I say all of that to say,  I know how not to treat other entrepreneurs.  Small business remains small JUST because of the lack!  Lack of trust, lack of desire to share,  lack of truth, lack of overall willingness to grow others along your own growth path.  Trust me, on our journey it wont kill us to give a glass of water from our own bottomless supply.

I will always support other small businesses.  I want to grow!  I desire all that is for me from HIM. Keep your fists tightly clinched with the small blessings/gifts...its hard to grab more in that position.

I will continue to support small business

I speak LIFE

If you have nothing positive to say ... just hush ya mouth!
There are enough negative thoughts and energies in the world. I for one, refuse and rebuke that in MY circle! I will let you know, I will block you, I will blast you. If you are looking for a personal landfill to empty your dump truck of bad vibes, keep it moving. No one is perfect, no life is perfect...I get it! Trust me, I get it! If you know the year that I have had, you would wonder how I haven't lost it!
Here'...s how, there is but 1 step :
1.) Speak LIFE into everything that you do and encounter!!!
Love and
Implausible
Faith to
Everything
Again, If you are looking for a personal landfill to empty your dump truck of bad vibes, keep it moving.

Christians wishing ill will...?

As a Christian, we are taught to turn the other cheek. It is understood that we forgive others...7 times what...? That is Christianity. We are also flesh. It can be difficult to turn that cheek or want to be forgiving when others are not disrespectful, disrespecting, potentially damaging and disrupting seeds that you have so lovingly sown. 
It can be difficult to not "want something" to happen to those demon spawns who bring ill will to you. Sometimes they know, sometimes they don't...
I will continue to do the right thing. I will continue to turn the other cheek I am a Christian! I am also flesh...I can't promise I won't step out of myself to get with you for just a minute...I am flesh...

Pangs

The loss of someone who you love can be devastating! It has been known to decay relationships, cause family hostilities, and can even cause your demise. That loss can turn your world(s) upside down! The depression and stress that eats you up inside can and will eradicate you, if you allow it to. One of the most hollow feelings of loss is the loss of a loved one who is still here. 

When you have lost someone to addiction, the streets, your children to their friends, your spouse to darkness, your sister to gossip and lies, your cousin to hatred and misunderstanding…the list of what can be lost is endless! I don’t discount the pain of death, not by far! I am only stating the hard to swallow truth that the loss of someone that you can still physically see, is a pain that seems to have no end. In that moment, there are no words for those who have lost. Being sorry, doesn’t fix it, condolences don’t ease the pain, I’m praying for you doesn’t really help…in that moment. A loss is a loss…where do we go from here?

The pain of loss can seem agonizing at times. Remember that GOD doesn’t give us more than we can bear.

#justmyramblings #justmytakeonthematter #healingisontheway 

getting emptied

You may never know that the person you love, the one who always makes you laugh, there for you to lean on, picking up the phone, being there for you and so many others...may be battling depression! Why don't you try to pour into others who give you so much of them. Depression is a beast! So when you think about it, this kind and loving friend/sibling/coworker has , their problems, their children, their family, their careers, their losses, the issues of their circle...now your problems on them. They may never say it is overwhelming, because they may not realize until its too late that they were emptied and no one ever thought enough to simply pour a moment back into them...lets do better by those who are good to us...
#justmyramblings #justmytakeonthematter #whoisthisfor #stayblessedyall

Give

Sometimes, it is really ok to do something that you do not financially gain from! It really is! There are times where in order to walk in your purpose...you will need to...yall ready...? There are times where in order to walk in your purpose...you will need to...give...yep! I said it...give...

How in the world are you able to receive your blessings, when you are too busy holding back someone else?!?!?I am not saying to go and give all away and now you are unable to pay bills, lights get cut off…you in the streets! Don’t be foolish! GOD does give us that thing called free will for a reason. All I am saying it…you will not be blessed with a clinched fist. You cannot hold on to every little thing, being greedy, especially when it won’t hurt you to give and expect to see blessing come your way! People pray all day for things, we all do! Then there is that moment when “all of a sudden”…someone comes our way with the exact thing that we needed! Do you really think that is by chance? I don’t! I think my GOD hears my prayers and uses us to make it happen! We have to come out of our pride/greed/feelings long enough to be able to give…and receive! 

,not that you deserve it

Sometimes people are nice because that is who they are, not that you deserve it.
Sometimes people are respectful because that is who they are, not that you deserve it.
Sometimes people are faithful because that is who they are, not that you deserve it.
Sometimes people show common courtesy  because that is who they are, not that you deserve it.
Sometimes people are nice because that is who they are, not that you deserve it.
Sometimes people are pleasant because that is who they are, not that you deserve it.
Sometimes people are polite because that is who they are, not that you deserve it.
Please understand..just because I am all of these things does NOT mean that I know no other way. Some people make a conscious and that not so easy to take "high road" because that is who THEY are...not because you deserve any of it.
It isn't always easy to show the world your smile, when you have been wronged. Trust me...though they may be taking the high road, you have probably been punched in the face in their minds...now they have to go home and pray because they allowed you to take them to that dark place....

I will say it again

I have said it once or five times…I will say it again…The devil only messes with what he misses.

That lil devil must go to GOD to ask to even mess with you!

Sometimes life will hurt you! Sometimes life will make you want to…just give up!

You were not placed here to give up!

If things seem to be tough…life seems to suck…thank GOD!

Thank GOD simply because you are on the Righteous path!

The devil will reward you when you do his works…so, if you are “catchin hell”, it is only because you are no longer living in it!

Because you see smile

Just because you see smile, doesn't mean I know no trials
I am neighbors with alcoholism
I am cousins to drug addiction
I am friends with heart disease
I am siblings with cancer
I am kin to disability
I am associates with obesity
I am related to divorce
I am in social circles with abusers
I am family with pain
I am interrelated to death
I am interconnected with darkness
I am acquaintance with abhorrence
Just because you see me with all smiles, doesn't mean my life knows no trials
We all have a story, a past, a dark memory. We also all have a choice! We can choose to live life in darkness and despair or we can choose life! Smile...simply because you can!

Dont settle for "simUlar"

hey...I hear the word simUlar a lot! This is not a real word, however...since it is so popular I have decided to give it a definition! Yayyy!!! (lol)

This word is not to be confused with

similar : having a likeness or resemblance, especially in a general way they are very similar...with a slight difference...U

 

SimUlar : Not a match but close enough that it looks good

 

Some of us find ourselves in something simUlar to a relationship. This is fine, if it works for you.

Do what you want and what you will...but you know in your heart that "simUlar" is similar to psyching yourself out.

Get the real thing, go for the real thing, work for the real thing...because "simUlar" is far too much work for something that isnt real.

#justmyramblings #justmytakeonthematter #yallknowthistobetrue

It takes work

What it takes to get them...it takes at least to keep them! Please know this! Once the newness of the infatuation wears or the “we no longer have to sneak" to be together is there...what then? When the luster of lust wears…what then? When the shine of showing one another is gone…what then? When glint is beginning to dull…what then?

What happens when the children come? What happens when life sets in? When the monotony of life has taken sheen of the relationship to that worn and aged appearance…what then?!?!?!?

Please know that whatever you did to get that person…it will take AT LEAST that to keep them! We have to stay excited about the person that we want to love for the rest of our lives!

We come home, life is on auto pilot, that is fine to a certain extent! You want to come home and expect your mate to be happy that you are there? LMBO!!! No, that is not how it works! You cannot show up to your job and not work…trust me, you will not get that paycheck and you will eventually be replaced or downsized. No one in any relationship wants to feel as though they are insignificant…they can get that feeling at their 40gig…

You don’t have to necessarily wine and dine each night, but you HAVE to remind your mate of the reasons that you got together! You must remind them that they matter. You are obligated as the one who proposed or said yes to the proposal to be appreciative. We all need to feel valuable in our relationships! The loneliest one can be in when they are alone with a mate. Just remember that appreciation and consideration goes a long way.

Priceless Art

There are many priceless  works of art that are framed and protected in museums .

Yet some call the Mona Lisa the picture of the lady with no eyebrows.

The Scream can be defined by the screaming bald image on a wood bridge.

The Dora Maar with Cat has been called the witch with 2 faces.

The Starry Night has been described as the swirly picture by the guy who cut his ear off.

All of these paintings are priceless and have been called far less than they deserve. Much like people describe one another. It isn't important what others call you, that is not your business. Your reaction to their ignorance and lack of true knowledge is all that really matters.

 

You can call me out of my name, but I will remain priceless and never get out of the frame

#JustMyRamblings #JustMyTakeOnTheMatter

We never know

We never know what one is going through...

We may never know the full story or even part of the story of the one that you speak ill of. Just know that if you have not yet gone through yours, be patient...its coming. We all go through something. Some of it, we cause, others cause, or it is simply our time to be humbled. 

I am actually laughing. I love that I can be the face of grace while going through hell. 
#YouThinkYouKnow #LetGoLetGOD

Unsolicited

*Unsolicited : given or supplied without being requested or asked for
*opinion: a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty
*advice : an opinion or recommendation offered as a guide to action, conduct, etc.

Unsolicited opinion and advice...
Until you know with certainty what one is going through, it is best to keep the unsolicited opinions and advice to o...ne's self. I am not saying we should not be there for others. You can be there and not be obnoxiously vocal and opinioned on a life
that you have never lived.
We may not know what one has been "put through" but only the stories that we hear. We may not have seen the abuse, but only the scars. Without knowing the history behind the actions/scars...it is virtually impossible to know what we would do.
Unless we know their lives, where they were (spiritually) at that time, how they were being treated, the relationship and feelings behind that bond or lack thereof, the abuse they had to bear, the deceit they had to endure...just to name a few things that again, we are clueless to. Until we know with certainty all of this can we have some kind of sincere opinion as to what we may think they should do. Still, unless solicited...it is not a great idea to blurt our opinions or to try and "fix" anything.
Walking in others shoes can look so easy, until we actually try them on for size...

HE will allow him

HE will allow him to "mess" with us! You have free will...what will you do with it, when the tempter arrives? 
As Docta G Davis says "Lets Be Clear..."
A lot of times we oh Thank GOD...yes, give HIM thanks! Give HIM thanks through it all, for it all, to it all....Give thanks to HIM!!!! YESSSS!!!! On the flip side, you think that HE is causing the turmoil that you are going through? Lol...I think not. The devil has to get permission to "mess with you"...wake up...and as Millie Lee-SuccessCoach would say ..."Comone Sombody?!??!?!?"

I am a punk

To you, I may be a “punk”

To me…I am particular

I don’t particularly like quarrelling about things that can’t be changed

I don’t particularly like disagreeing about things that won’t change

I don’t particularly like being in opposition about plans changing

I don’t particularly like being in conflict when things don’t go my way

I don’t particularly like disputing about the trivial things

To you, I may be a punk. That is fine…I will take that.

This “punk” prays

This “punk” asked for discernment

This “punk” lives in peace

This “punk” lives a life unoccupied with drama

This “punk” is truly happy….

Does it ever strike you as odd...?

Does it ever strike you as odd that there are people who support you #100…when you give your product or services to them? 

Does it ever strike you odd that when you ask those same people to do something for you that only costs time, they won’t?

Does it ever strike you odd that when they need, you are there but when you need they aren't?

Does it ever strike you odd that when they say they will be there, they aren't but expect you to be there for them and early?

Does it ever strike you odd that people will offer just for the sake of offering, but when you accept they lessen the offer?

Does it ever strike you odd that when you treat them as they have treated you…they are upset by your actions?

Does it ever strike you odd that those people tend to make one feel as though “the first time I say no, it’s like I never said yes”?

Well then, this this people like you have but one question to people like those. Does it ever strike you odd that I get tired of being the odd one out?

Get people like that out of your life! Run fast and far! Leaches of life will suck the life out of you! Once you see that people are only in a relationship with you (of any kind) to use you…get out! I for one know that I was not placed on this earth to be the footstool for anyone! Once this is learned and embraced, better and wiser choices can be made

What an artist...

You have turned out to be quite the artist! I love the layers, hues, use of manipulation! The contrasts are remarkable! The way you place and use the mediums is astonishing! The structure and use of color…Oh, how it brings it all to life! The symmetry and lines used, creating such truth to the work! You are absolutely inconceivable! What a gift you have been given. I have never met an artist of your caliber. 

I can only imagine the greatness that is in you, should you apply this endowment to not being a con…artist

Your check is in the mail

For the "your check is in the mail" kind of people, like people...addresses change. It is unfortunate that for some things never do and never will. Changing your position and state of mind when people owe you is essential to living at peace. If you can't afford to lose it, don't loan it. For the borrower, if you know you won't be able to pay it back, simply ask to have it. In doing this, relationships are saved because honesty existed and the proper expectation was set. We can't continue to do wrong and expect great things to return us. I have said it before and will again, if you are "the check is in the mail" person in my life...I have written that off. There is no need in pretending. We are still cool, I don't hold things like that against people. Moving forward. .. I just know

This world of ours...?

The level of disrespect among people these days is intolerable! None of us are perfect and we all have done things that we may not be extremely proud of…I get that. What I don’t get is how people turn into monsters!

We live in a world where people just approach others on the streets and attack them.

We live in a world where people just beat children.

We live in a world where people just beat up the elder

We live in a world where our children cuss in front of our elders.

We live in a world where people no longer get up for our elders to be seated.

We live in a world where people take advantage of others because they can.

We live in a world where people just hate.

We live in a world where people just disrespect you because they are carrying a weapon.

We live in a world where people have weapons to terrorize not defend themselves.

We live in a world where people just don’t care!

We live in a world where we cannot truly live….

Still judging me?

Sometimes I wake with words on my brain and in my heart, so I put it on paper...

Still judging me for who I used to be?
I don't have the power to judge you
So, who are you to judge me?
We all have a past...No matter how checkered
The past is the past and called the past because it didn't last!
if I had no past woes, I would not have been able to grow
While you are busy judging me...
Who did you used to be?
*for that one finger you have pointing at me, there are three pointing back at you*

3 Points

I dreamed that I was invited to speak at a seminar on marriage and how we have lasted. Lets face it, today...21 years is a long time to be with someone, at our age! We haven't traveled without bumps, stumbling blocks, and  issues #TrustThat! We have also had a lot of celebrating, can testify, and may triumphs!
I spoke on 3 topics:
1) Never go to bed angry
2) Pick and choose your battles
3) Don't deny your partner the "pleasures of you"
Who knows what I may have in store for this life? I do know with certainty, those 3 points...are just the beginning!

Alone

Being alone isn't all so bad. We come into the world alone and will leave that same way. Being alone isn't a bad place to be. Solitude is where you can find out things about you! That is the time that you learn to focus on your actions and reactions. That is the only time that you can focus on your relationship with your creator without interruption. Being alone isn't all so bad....
When you are in a relationship and alone, that is lonely. We need to learn and understand the difference.

Hear to Listen

If you ask GOD for answers then find them using the devil's minions and tools, you did it wrong.
Be patient! GOD's timing is perfect and always on time! You won't hear GOD if you aren't paying attention. HE may be teaching you to how focus and  the patience that you asked for last week! You may not be ready for the real, raw, and uncut truth that you find! GOD may be protecting you, as HE does every moment of our lives!
Ask GOD then wait!

2nd Place...aint all that bad

2nd Place...aint all that bad
I am not the firs my man greets
He starts each day with another
Nor does he come to me first when there is a struggle
Dilemmas..? I get that second too
He comes to me with the small stuff, most of the time
Now that I understand my position, that is totally fine!
I don't get the initial thank yous
The sharing of the most intimate thoughts?!?!? Nope
The sharing of the dark times, he doesn't run to me
I get that "memo" eventually
I know that I will never be first, again that is fine with me
Honestly, I wouldn't want to be!
For those who find my feelings to be a lil odd
Read it again, I just described a Man of GOD

Kids Today...

Children do what we allow...we began to allow because the "system" allows the kids to call 911 and be in family business when there is no true need. Spankings are no longer considered spankings, but abuse. I for one will not go to jail for disciplining my child, just like I refuse to allow my child (who does not pay bills) to run our home. Our world is one in which the children are allowed to be the victim and the villain! We have become a society in which the parents have to almost fear disciplining our children. Remember there was a time where we all had that 1 or 2 people in our family who was "crazy"...well because there is a drug for it all, there are now more "crazy" than sane people in our families. ...just like everything else! There is a drug and a scientific name for it so we accept it. That does not fly in our home! If our children choose to be grown, they chose to move out. Our home is ruled by Our KING, my king, and I

Love your Fellow Entrepreneur

Question : Do we go into Macy's and ask for additional discounts or go to the register ready to pay?

Answer : Whip out the cash or card

Question : Do we go into a fabric store and ask for a "hook up"?

Answer : Whip out the cash or card

Question : Do we go to a therapist and request refunds and discounts?

Answer : Whip out the cash or card

Question : Do we go to the bakery and ask for free cakes?
Answer : Whip out the cash or card

There are so many other questions and scenarios, that we will not visit.

We all want discounts, the best price available, a great deal...yes we All do! Discounts are cool and fun!!! lol

Question : If it were your business...would those questions every single day...be fun?

Answer : You'd tell them to whip out the cash or card

"Drama GPS"

Don't fret when things and situations in your life remain the same, when you too aren't willing to grow and change. #lifeschoices.

At what point do we need to look at self? When is it not the fault of others that our lives are "messed up"? Be that change you want to see! Complaining...is NOT the new black and is not a good look.
It sometimes seems that there is a "Drama GPS" attached to us.
Make changes within and mess will have a harder time finding you.

Let's man up!

Let's just stop! Stop being selfish! Stop with the woe is me thought process and spirit!!!
You are not going through "your hell" for you. We all have issues, problems, burdens, no life is without stumbling blocks. We go through things for other people. Why don't we wake up, walk through our fire with grace and poise. Just because we may be going through "our hell" doesn't mean we have to look like it, treat people badly, get even, or fall victim to our current situation. Let us all put on our big kid pants, pray real hard 1 time!!! Once is all it takes! GOD hears us and knows what we want and need before we ask HIM for it...then just praise HIM through it. You are not the first devastated life and won't be the last.

Pay it forward

Random thought....you don't have to be a billionaire in order to do nice things or people or to in a sense "pay it forward". Who am I kidding...you don't have to be a millionaire or thousandaire either! lol!!! I know thousandaire is not a word...get ready for this one...HUNDREDAIRE!‪#‎BAM‬! It is not necessarily the dollar amount, but the thought and genuine heart in the act that truly matters! What is it going to hurt us to skip one fast food joint for lunch and bless someone with that money? We live in a world where me me me me me...is all we see! Let's not just see me...when there is we! If we all do 1 small gesture a day for someone else not only will we feel better, but we grow!!! Why don't we try to look beyond ourselves and help one another? ‪#‎ItTakesAVillage‬

The compass of you direction

The compass of you direction is within you

We all know what path and which direction to go in! We know because it is in us. We were all born with a “ethical compass”, instinctive beings, allow that perception direct you. Once you do, you will then need to follow your greatness; no one can do it for you! No one can walk for you in your greatness! It is yours!!! Reach for it, grab it, and be it!!!

You must also love yourself and embrace what you love. Without loving self, we are incapable of loving anyone or anything else. How dare we allow the words “I love you” to pass our lips when we refuse to truly love self (without conceit). When you can look in the mirror and truly love and embrace what is looking back at you without the “full of self” brashness, you can then truly embrace what you love, for now you know what love is
Then, live like no one is watching! You will and can have all the fun that you want and have worked so hard for, without hurting others…because it’s almost unmanageable to hurt others when you have done the above

Choice

Happiness and growth is a choice! You decide what kind of day that you will have. Only you can determine your mood. You are the one who will dictate how your day goes, what potential you will reach. You decide what you attract and what enters your space and life...you make your world happen with the choices that you make....

Choice simply translates to the acronym below:

Chaos
Hinders your
Overflow and
Increase, so
Cease the
Externalizing with your words


Wake up each day knowing that you are blessed to be...to exist...
Wake up each day with the expectation that something greater is coming!
Wake up each day and smile on purpose, even if you think you dont have a reason!

Gangrene

Gangrene serious and potentially life-threatening condition that arises when a considerable mass of body tissue dies/loses its blood supply. This may happen from injury, an infection, or other causes.
Some symptoms:
•Confusion
•Fever
•General ill feeling
•issues with blood pressure
•Persistent or severe pain
Some Treatment options:
•Amputating the body part that has gangrene
•An eme...rgency operation to find and remove dead tissue
•An operation to improve blood supply to the area
•Antibiotics
•Repeated operations to remove dead tissue (debridement)
•Treatment in the intensive care unit (for severely ill patients)

So, we refuse to hold on to a limb that is killing us, causing discomfort, and is dead...but we will hold on to relationships that are killing us, causing discomfort, and is dead...
The willingness to amputate your own body but not a relationship??!?!?!? oh, ok

Words Vs Actions

You want me to know that you are honest? Why don't you speak truth?
You want me to know that I can trust you? When was the last time that you were trustworthy?
You want to know why I don't trust your judgement? When was the last time you made a smart and successful move?

None of us are perfect, by far! However...for some it seems that they will go out of their way to go against the grain and to hurt others...then want to be a part of all the good that comes to the ones that they hurt?!?!?!? Your friend's opinions and actions, become your thoughts, become your words, become your actions. While we all need to be mindful of out words and actions...also be mindful of your surroundings and the company that you keep

I have spoken with people and I am finding that the lines between social media and life begin to blur when your life is social media. Have fun with it, that's what it is here for...networking and fun.
Remember though, when there are people in your real life...real world...who really are there for you...be more mindful of the things that are said and done.
Block me?
I don't want to sound bitter or salty
However, when you block me from your social media life, know that I take i...t personally
If you are going to block me...
Stop asking for me, emotionally
Stop asking for me, economically
Stop asking for me, spiritually
Stop asking for me, mentally
Just stop asking for me...YOU BLOCKED ME!
*side note* when blocking me
block me totally, so that I am able to let go respectably

Love is not…

Love is not…
Absolute
Brute and 
Unsavory
Soul spoilage and 
Exploitation of others
You don’t have to be getting hit to be in an abusive relationship….

Ladies and Gentlemen evaluate and maybe even reevaluate relationships. It isn't always necessarily your mate. Some will and have mastered the art of manipulation to the point that you don't see it. The people around you will! Listen to those who loved you and never steered you wrong prior to the situation that you are finding yourself in now. The thing is...abuse causes depression, anxiety, self doubt, self hate, and addictions just to name a few. Just pay attention to who and what you allow in your lives.

If you are the abuser....you can change

Yep, you are a great person

Yep, you are a great person

you are absentee
basking in your... self inflicted misery
always have a reason to scream...woe is me
loving conditionally
living in self pity
secretly wishing upon others antipathy
Yep, you are a great person
I will remain just being a good person...I don't have that kind of greatness in me

Secret to Women

HEY....I HAVE A SECRET FOR ANY WOMAN WHO WANTS TO KNOW!

Let Him be king of his domain! We should stay in a Queens place and role. This does not mean to just sit on a throne and look pretty. This means put in work. Also as women, we need to learn to better pick and choose our battles. If it doesn't negatively affect Our Kingdom...why are we concerning ourselves with it?!?!? We don't go to a party just because we are invited... approach a "fight" with your mate the same way. When we learn that...we also learn that he is wanting to give us more of him...we just have to act right! lol. Love letting a man be a man and watching him develop!

DISCLAIMER: This is for MEN...not boys, boo thangs, side guys, hopeful guy...none of that...this is only when it comes to Your Man....Your King...ok?

Change

Don’t be afraid of change…Your friends, surroundings, thought process, your reaction to things

Don’t be afraid of change…this is easier said than done! However faith and fear cannot coexist!

When we ask for patience, it seems like people come out of the woodworks “testing us”

When we ask for guidance, it seems we are lost and thoroughly confused for just a moment or two

When we ask for will power, it seems there is our vice at every turn

We cannot ask and expect change and better, if we aren’t willing to be tested and make different and better choices

Dare to be your different you! Step out…no leap out on faith! You won’t be sorry as long as it is FAITH and not Fear that is making you make moves!

Hearing?

We can't truly hear people... 
if we are listening with the intent of replying
if we are being defensive
if we are upset
if we don't care
if we are hurt
if we are selfish
if we...if we...if we...
Take the time out to just "hear" your loved ones.

Boss?

There are bosses and there are leaders!
It doesn't take much to boss someone around.
It doesn't take much to tell someone what to do.
It doesn't take much to sit up somewhere and point!
When your “boss” actually leads, they help you.
When your “boss” actually leads, they learn your duties.
When your “boss” actually leads, they can assist when you are having issues…because they know the job.
Just because you can point someone in the right direction, doesn't make you a leader. 
If you want to lead…lead by example! You want to be respected as a leader but you behave as a boss.
I choose put in work and to lead! 
There are enough clueless bosses. lol

We live in a world where the sense of entitlement is “the new black”

Please know that going through life believing that you are due something without doing anything will in fact leave you in a world of blackness….lost…a confused state, if you will. There is no way that you can have anything that is truly yours, if you have not truly worked for it. Even the things that we consider to be small and minute require work.

You want a clean kitchen, but won’t do dishes

You want respect, but don’t give it (or respect yourself)

You want to be loved, but spew hate

You want attention from your mate, but don’t focus on them

You want a job, but won’t stay sober (C~Mone somebody)

You want to lose weight, but won’t work out

You want “good kids”, but don’t communicate with them

You want a good life, but hang with negative people

You want to stop smoking, but your “dude” is the dope man

You want to DO a lot of things, but you never make moves

If you want what is truly DUE you…DO something!

For one to never work for anything but expect everything…is an unrealistic expectation

I tell our children all the time…In everything there are sacrifices that must be made. Do what you have to do, so you can do what you want to do

Ladies and Gentlemen...please read it again. Cute don't keep em! It doesn't! Yes...you are cute...yayyyy you! I am happy for you and wish you all the luck in your future endeavors. Just remember that in any and all relationships, to include the one that you are in with yourself...maintenance is needed. I hear a lot of people speaking on how they are cute and look at what I am. He has a dime piece! That is great...having a nicely wrapped gift and all, it really is. What is in the box though? Is there nice under the cute? Is there a worker under the cute? Is there faithfulness under that pretty packaging? Is there a communicator? Is there a friend? Cute gets you in the door, absolutely! My question is...when all of that beauty fades, whats left? It doesn't matter how pretty you wrap booboo...its still a piece of crap, right?

We just need to think about how we treat one another, is all. Just because you may be "cute" doesn't mean much if the inside is ugly or empty. #justmytakeonthematter
