Peace is always available to us in any circumstance or situation. 2 Thessalonians 3:16 #mythoughtsonathursday #ThoughtfulThursday #catchthatthought
If you don’t journal or haven’t tried it this is why you should! Take a listen! #mythoughtsonathursday #thoughtfulthursday
Every thought possible tried to keep me from posting this today. I did it anyway. Just do it! Whatever it is just do it regardless of how you feel or what you think. That’s the enemies way of casting doubt upon you. #resetyear #browngirlswhoblog #writer #iwrite #vision #goals #dreams #blog #huntsvilleblogger #huntsvillecontentcreators
It’s not so fun…….To budget and sacrifice the instant gratification but the reward of having savings and being debt free is freedom.To workout and eat healthier but to see and feel the improvement in your body and overall health is priceless. Plan and dedicate time to accomplish your goals and dreams when you just want to sit and watch a Netflix series or scroll your phone but to start living your dream and seeing your goals accomplished is living. “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on however it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.” ~Hebrews 12:11
It’s really difficult to walk in someone else’s shoes. They’re either too big or too small. Nothing fits you better than your own shoes that you’ve had a chance to “break-in” and have the shoes to stretch and conform to your foot.
When Coach Saban announced his retirement many people began to say the next person had big shoes to fill. I thought about when I received my first promotion at work, a lady congratulated me and I said “thank you, but I’m nervous….I’ve got big shoes to fill.” She gave me a sweet smile and said “No, you don’t try to fill someone else’s shoes, you fill your own.”
(Disclaimer: I am not a football fan like that nor am I comparing myself/job to Coach Nick Saban at all! Cause I know how y’all Alabama football fans are so don’t come for me lol).
It’s impossible to create your own path and be the best you can be if you’re constantly trying to “fill” someone else’s shoes. You’ve got to carve your own path and bring what you have to offer to the table.
Just a reminder to not only “fill” your own shoes but to walk in them confidently.

We are not called to everything or everyone…
It’s a constanuggle sometimes to let go of all that is so familiar to us. I’ve fought so long to hold on to the “me” before marriage and kids, that I’ve neglected the me I am growing to be. There’s things I miss about the old me and I wonder sometimes will I ever be the same but the truth is no. And I honestly I shouldn’t want to be. It’s not that anything was wrong with me but it’s okay to grow and become. The becoming is difficult for us but I think it’s also difficult for those around us to adjust because we are different. Becoming a mother changes EVERYTHING in you. You are never the same mentally, physically, or emotionally. It’s hard place to be in at times. But there is power in letting go of what was and embracing what is and opening yourself to what will be.I’m learning to be okay with me. I’m learning that we all change and evolve. I’m learning every season of life may require a different me and that life’s constant changes will produce change and growth in me regardless if I want it or not. I declared this year as the year of “Forty-Free” and I am giving myself permission to be free and present in the who I am now.
A win is a win! #ThoughtfulThursday
