Writing the Wrongs

I believe many of you can relate to not being terribly concerned with people hurting you directly, but when your friends and family - your loved ones - are harmed, you take on a new kind of energy.

That's where I am. That's where I've been.

You see, people have taken liberties they were not granted. People have stolen time, confidence, money, and hope under the guise of love, friendship, faith, business, and a host of other falsehoods. And where I have the capacity to forgive the wrongs brought against me, I am limited in my ability to do the same where others are concerned.

But what I am consistently reminded is that I do not know more than God. I do not understand more than God. I do not feel more than God. I do not have more power to right these wrongs than God.

And often, after being reminded, I wonder what I can do to help. And what I am shown time and time again, is that I possess the ability to write these wrongs in a way in which others can digest them, using a medium by which others can gain alternative perspectives, and in a tone where others can find their voice.

Let's explore this gift together.

An unapologetic journey.

For the first time in a really long time, I don't feel like I'm wasting my time. I sincerely believe that I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. And this past year and a half has been incredibly challenging...for lack of a better phrase, in seemingly every area of my life. So I spent a great deal of time rewriting the vision and the journey brought about a rediscovery of self. And from this rediscovery of self, I have made conscious decisions about my life, the vision and my future...and for none am I apologetic.

The one thing that really stands out to me about this journey is that sometimes you have to walk away from poisonous relationships, regardless to whether they are friendships or partnerships. Sometimes, you have to remove angry and negative people from your every day life...even if they're family. Why? Because you are worth it! You are worthy of all good things and you deserve to have everything your heart desires!

Work hard, stay focused and if you believe in a higher power - trust in it. Understand that some people don't know how to be encouraging and/or supportive. And understand that ultimately, that isn't your problem. Live with purpose, set goals/milestones for yourself and keep moving forward. Life shouldn't be a race unless you want it to be. And progress is still progress no matter how slow it moves. So be beautiful, be bold, be encouraged, be inspired, be kind, be courageous, be encouraging, be supportive, be conscious and be well!

Love & Peace
