Finding Gratitude in Stillness

Finding Gratitude in Stillness
Today is Day 14 in quarantine. As I shared before on March 20th, I was forced to stay home until this virus does it's course. Stillness. Quietness. Gratitude is something I vibrate each and every day. From big things to small things, I find something in each day that fills my being with the vibration of gratitude. Today as I was listening to this song called Songbird - it's an old song, it has been out since like 1998 but I hadn't heard it before. I was singing, dancing, and walking outside. Getting some sunshine. It was still. I could hear the birds chirping in between the start and ending of the song. 
As I was thinking of how grateful I am for I know everything works for my highest good. I felt an enormous heartfelt gratitude to God.  The thought came to me that this virus had been around for a while, some say it was around since November. And it hit me, I was like thank you God for allowing me to received an answered prayer. In December, I traveled to North Carolina and was at my only daughter's wedding. I was so grateful and lifted up my thoughts and words of gratitude to God. As I walked so many white butterflies kept flying around. I knew my angels were near. I knew they understood how grateful I was. 
There is always something to be grateful for in our lives. You must find those things in stillness. When you are still, you can tap into a deeper profound vibration of gratitude.  I share this because I wish to invite you to stop where you are and close your eyes and feel that loving energy of gratitude. Think of your love ones. Think of wonderful moments. That is finding gratitude in stillness. I am truly grateful. When I found out my daughter was engaged in 2019, my prayer was that I would be able to go to her wedding. God answer that prayer. I just needed to lift my prayer of gratitude up once again especially during this time. 
Wishing you a wonderful blessed weekend. 
T.G.I.F.
Be Blessed
Stay Safe

Let's examine what's coming out of our mouth?

Have you ever asked someone how they are doing? Have you ever asked someone how things were going? Have you ever stopped to really listen to what comes out of their mouth?  I know first hand that life can be hard. Things we go through can tear us up into pieces.  Have you ever examine what's coming out of your mouth? Do we complain about anything and everything. Just some food for thought....instead of complaining about the issue...be thankful that whatever it is your facing will make you stronger and wiser.  Remember whatever your going through....is nothing compare to what someone else might be going through.....replace complaining with a  brighter outlook on the situation . I know it can be hard. But remember God knows we can handle whatever it is your facing. And I know that if the complaining stops....you will  Change Your Life !  Why? Because complaining is just another form of being negative. Thinking negative. Therefore if we ...

Sunday Vibes

Sunday Vibes Day 2 of quarantine My sister and niece came over yesterday to see dad and spend the night. We laughed. We enjoyed time with each other. On Friday, I was officially sent home to self quarantine. The governor issued the order that all fitness centers had to closed state wide. I am going to welcome stillness. Only going out to get my dad's medicine. Yesterday my niece gave me a facial and massage.   My niece Vicky was in shock when she noticed that she had the same birthmark on her foot as I. My sister doesn't have this birthmark. We had to mark the moment with a picture. lol I told her she was special cuz she had titi's birthmark. lol Day 2 - today I filled the bird feeders, I definitely want to see my bird friends this week. As I sat here to write this blog. I had the doves come by and eat. And also the red cardinal. It's so beautiful outdoors.  Very tranquil. Best moment of the day was my sister, niece, and I did a TikTok...

Do you love yourself? Have you forgiven yourself?

In the last three years, I've had to learn how to forgive myself in order to truly love myself. Life throws us curve balls.  We all have experience current life events that were traumatic.  We've done things we didn't like.  We've been treated poorly. So many things could have happened.  I will share a little about what happened to me and how I was able to take the advice I am about to share with you and change my life around. I spend a majority of my life blaming others for my unhappiness.  First mistake, I made. I had to take responsibility for my own mistakes.  I was in an abusive relationship for 15 years. I blamed God for not changing my situation. I lived feeling that God must not love me. What happened to me was I developed a mindset that if God didn't love me why should I love myself. My reasoning to this thought was the fact I was mistreated, called names, put down for so many years.....God didn't hear my prayers. It wasn't until I chan...
