Once I get out of my funky-ness and pick my chin up off the ground I am my own best cheerleader. I have learned over the course of my life that whatever motivation I need it has to resonate from inside. I love stories from inspiring people. I love words to adopt as my mantras. At the end of the day I have to make the move to rise above
adversity...crisis...challenges...broken heart...sadness...lonliness...aloneness...anger...
Some days rising above is hard, near impossible. And then I realize I have all the tools I need to get up and shine! I have a faith that continues to deliver. GOD is with me, whom shall I fear? I am a mother, that alone makes me fearless. I have a tight circle of friends who remind me of who I am. I have myself, my heart, my mind, my desire to love. It is my desire to love that propels me forward. The love that I want isn't unattainable or out of reach. There are moments that I am distracted and lose sight of love all around. My weary blues are examples of taking my eyes off the prize and forgetting who's child I am. I am a child of God. Deserving of love unconditionally.
I need my circle of friends. I need the love of the people who fuel me daily. I am a woman made for love. That is my greatest motivation. I am cheering myself on this day. I summoning all my strength to face the winds of challenge and change.
Happy Birthday #54 to ME!

I see you know what to do. But it is difficult. Glad to see that you have what you need for now to face the challenge of dealing with the 'whatevers'.
Hello Big Mark 243!
All i got is all I need. I am making a choice to give up the weary blues. I love life to much to wallow too long in funky-ness. Oh trust me, there will be days when my life is too thick to see infront of myself. Not today. Today I am dusting myself off and getting abck in the game.
At least you have what you need right now! All we can worry about is what is going on right now. We can't focus on what has happened yesterday or what might happen tomorrow. All we can do is stay in the moment and live our life to the fullest today. At least that is how I am trying to do it.
shhhh.... listen.... can you hear it? me. CHEERING YOU ON!!!!
loneliness. alone-ness. funky-ness. feel it. but leave it. pick yourself up and get ta living and loving this life. your life. yours to design for yourself. how sweet!
smooches :)
it's very true that you have to find our own inner motivator. the reality is it still exists even when it's been abused, beat down, deserted, or tricked into thinking its host is weak. but always, w/ God's help, it can and will be revived!
Bless UP! SJ!
One.
