A positive self image...

Speaking of confidence, I visited my local walmart. Lol. Don't we all? I had on lace trim leggings and a lace back blouse which I guess are pretty popular right now. Just retro like back when Madonna was singing Cherish the Joy and wore those trendy lace gloves and pearls. Who I love by the way.  there was alot of admiration that day. I accept it humbly with grace.You know a little admiration never hurt anyone.

So I just want to say a few things. When you look in the mirror you should see a Goddess that's full of love, nurture, affection and beauty.You should flirt with your own natural rhythms just for the hell of it. Run your fingers through your hair and pose. Just play around sometimes with your postural femininity.What a woman thinks and feels is so important because it is LITERALLY what she will see and portray throughout her day. You will make choices based off of that mindset as well. As a woman be patient, unconditionally love yourself and just as you show compassion for others make sure not to forget about giving compassion to yourself.

When I feel and think good about myself it can even effect my shopping experience. Ever noticed how you buy more trendy,sexy,form fitting clothes when you feel good? It's true. Try going shopping on a day when you're feeling down then go again on a day when you're feeling happy. I need my own self love more than any other type of love in order to not limit empathy and affection upon myself. I don't know about anyone else.😊 So the next time you look at what you think to be an imperfection you smile at it the way others are. You accept it. Say this is me. This is who I am.Those who truly love you will love you just the way you are.

It's an amazing fact to know I was a part of nurturing the earth by bringing life into this world.  It's no small defeat no matter how long ago it happened. I've held blessings in my womb that grew into human beings. I've earned the tiger strips to prove it. I've been stretched out, loved on, given my time, my tears and my shoulder to cry for others. I've been hurt and grew to become stronger. Alot of times we allow others to dictate and control who we are and that in turn confirms what we think of ourselves. Even from childhood.  It's easy to get lost in the business of tending to others. Then there comes that point in life where you're figuring out your purpose and who you really are. You don't have to always let go but understand the growth and strength gained throughout your trials. You don't have an exact compass for the future. None of us do. Just make sure to be a part of your journey. Be present. Tomorrow is a new day. Know that you are beautiful. You must know that first and foremost that you are beautiful alone. The more full you are with unconditional love, understanding and compassion for yourself the more there will be for everyone else you care about to be fed. That way when you share yourself with the ones you love and care about there's plenty to go around.At my best I try to share the kind of light within me that draws people in and once they are within the glow give them peace and I want to experience the comfort of theirs. I've always preferred an honest approach. The kind that opens up a part of your soul to others.😉

Grudges. Just let go and Get Over it IF they tried! :)

A common mistake to make is not realizing when others make mistakes it's simply a reflection of what we all are HUMAN. I personally believe it's at the core of a loving relationship to FORGIVE. After many years GROWING a relationship with someone it just makes no sense to me how people can write another human being off for making a mistake and not one that necessarily damages the relationship. It's like you can either give in and allow that person to make you feel guilty for something you didn't do. Plead, beg, or sale your soul to just to prove you're worth forgiving. Being on the receiving end of someone else's GRUDGE can hurt. Sometimes the grudge doesn't seem fair and selfish. Almost fits the saying of "acting like your s*** don't stank." Umm Hmm.😏Not judging people who hold grudges. I'm just saying learn to love, compromise, accept and let go because I guarantee you that person you hold that GRUDGE against has already done the same for you MANY times. Ya'll have a good day out there! Texas style!😉
