No such thing as perfect


 

I’m not perfect — and I don’t have to be.

I’ve made mistakes, I’ve messed up in relationships. I’ve had days where my emotions got the best of me, and I’ve said or done things I wish I hadn’t.

But here’s the thing: I don’t numb the pain. I don’t run from reality. I face it, I feel it, and I grow through it.

It isn’t about being perfect — it’s about showing up every day and making the choice not to go back to what once destroyed me. I'm growing every day and year. Learning that less is more and that my boundaries matter. I don't know why some people can't seem to get that. Next year some people are in for a rude awakening with my new out look of life. All I can say is buckle up and hold on. Thankful everyday I'm not where I use to be but I also know I'm not 100% where God want me to be either. So it's time I put a little more work into that. For now I'm just happy with the progress I have been making. If you want change nothing will stand in your way and if you don't you will have every excuse in the book. So figure out what do you want and go make it happen. Happy Friday and Be Blessed.

How appropriate my 48th post on my 48th birthday

Image
So today is my 48th birthday and my one goal was to have 50 blogs written and posted. It looks like I didn't achieve that goal as this is my 48th blog. I thought how appropriate to be writing my 48th on my 48th. Maybe I did reach my goal, if I can get two more posts in before midnight technically that would still count, right? Anyways you ask how does it feel to be almost a half a century year old? I don't feel any different and I really don't look any different other then maybe more tired. My day has one of many things and emotions. I have gotten text, FB messages, FB post to my wall and phone calls. Some of them are from people who I knew would wish me happy birthday but there are a few that really surprised me. I'm still holding on to the hope that a couple of people I thought would send me a birthday wish will still do it. I'm not going to make a big deal out of it but to say I'm not hurt would be a lie. Either way I can clearly see who I matter to and I...

Goodbye September, Hello October

Image
 How is it possible that today day is the last day of September? I will go to sleep and wake up to the first day of October. I can say I'm ready for the fall and colder months. Which is crazy to think 3 more of them and it's going to be a whole new year! Time needs to slow down or maybe it's me that needs to? I love this time of year as the evening's are cooler and I can sit out on the porch or lay in my hammock and enjoy the evening. The sounds of nature all around and seeing the beauty of God's creations. Plus it's Fall Festivals, Arts and Crafts shows, evening drives with the windows down, football on tv, I mean really there is lots to do in the fall. There is a few things I would like to do different or maybe have during this time of year but I have to have faith that God will eventually see to it. As I have gotten older and been through many hard situations I don't take this time lightly. I try and enjoy every day and moment I can. My heart does get sad...

4th of July 2025

Image
 One of my favorite holidays has come and gone for another year. Things were a little different this year as my peeps that I go with to watch the fireworks didn't come due to having almost 6 month old twins at home. So I helped the church give out hot dogs and then my child and one of her friends spent time at the beach. Later we went and sat up on the damn and watched the fireworks. This was the end of a tradition but the start of a new one. Next year it will be home in our pool with close friends. Cooking out and doing our own fireworks show. Hope everyone have a good day and God Bless America 🙏  #Happy 4th of July
