Here’s to 2021

Season of Love

2020 I felt you. I’m still feeling you. Everything I felt was before the hashtags all about you.

We are here to journey in this life

We witness the changes to make things right all within a day and all in someone’s night. This is/was 2020 right?

Did I, you, or we just forget about all the changes learned about from the elders?

Did we forget the history before our life in this world? Now here we are another soul, another spirit with a chance to bring more love to the light.

I remember

2019 was my year! I was done with that brokenness, that breast cancer, and even learning to speak up about the kind of love I desired in my life. Still, I had something on my mind, a couple of signs, Oh Lord, you helped me through the made up madness in my mind.

I was signing things 2020 like it was here, and then it was. so I wrote and that’s when hindsight appeared.

2020 My Dear!

My driver’s license, the passport, professional certificate, lease to my home, relationship all expired in this year. I thought that thought, so I worked hard to get rid of that fear.

Pause, eat right, exercise, pray more, do right.

Pause, eat what I want, rest, spend more, but I like to save and give, so my budget had to be right. I kept thinking, kept trying, kept moving, kept smiling.

Go! I renewed everything! New license, certificate , passport, car, and new place. The life I live is my own the acceptance matches my grace. Oh how refreshing LoveSurvived finally closed that case. You say 2020 is a year to forget. I say God is in control, and he’s not done with us yet. As we love each day and plan for our new year, remember we cannot create Love when we are held hostage by fear.

That mask brought out a lot of a covered up hate and the illnesses didn’t just happen in isolation, it was near. We will be legendary, kind, uplifting in the 2021 . We will be loving , gentle creative, and fun. Our prayers must be followed with action that move us to cure the ills of what’s been done. Many continued prayers to the families, coping with the loss of love ones. Let’s lead prayers of strength for those whose ailments are unseen, but in need of healing in the all the days to come.

Dear 2020 you are a moment in time. I will share my love to all in 2021 with hopes for peace and love to come shining through . As I live, just like my ancestors knew, a day would come when all this is still known by a future generation trying to make sense of how we handled a situation that was won.

Today, I’ll wear my masks, and keep my hands clean. I’ll smile with my eyes and create a new dance to be seen.

Note:

So many years ago I lost my mother and that storm made me cry. There was no hashtag for that year, but my heart crumbled inside. So many things happened throughout each year, but each time I became closer to God, and it’s that happiness I look to every second, every hour, every day, every year. We are going to be alright . Love and take action. Justice is Love too, so continue to reach out if you know something isn’t right! Love Today. Tomorrow isn’t promised, but you can surely plan for it!

Much love and blessings to all in 2021!

In All Matters… Trust!

Surely, I look to God in all things. Surely, in all matters…

I trust in God

I understand things may not happen the way I envisioned, the way I would have liked, the way I expected, but God moves in His way.

Relax your Mind

I must always trust in His plans

I am growing in every aspect of my life. I am so very thankful for having the opportunity to create more of this life. I am so very thankful to be able to witness so much. I love this feeling of really feeling my life.

I will not let myself close up into a shell. The world outside is so beautiful. I love the trees and the rain. I especially love the water soaking into my skin.

I love the energy and the beauty of all creation. I love to feel the wind on my face. I really don’t like the cold, but it’s okay. It reminds me of my mom in a good way.

The Connection.

Those days were something.

I remember walking home with her. It’s was surely cold. We had gotten to the door, and she couldn’t find her keys. We stood there awhile as she laughed about finding her keys. She said she was going to clean her purse one day. She had to go to the bathroom so bad. I think we all did.

After what seemed like an eternity, she found her keys, but the next thing was going through all of the keys to open the door. Oh my!!! You know what? She always lost her keys in her purse. We pretty much went through that routine for a while. We had some good times.

I remember that house. I remember that door. I was only five or six .

Lil ole Me

Surely, I look to God in all matters

Thank you dear Lord, I love you.

Note:

Relax your mind.

Enjoy every single day

You are never alone

Your memory of love

Will show you!

You are doing just fine
