WaterColor Wednesday

“To make myself understood and to diminish the distance between us, I called out: “I am an evening cloud too.” They stopped still, evidently taking a good look at me. Then they stretched towards me their fine, transparent, rosy wings. That is how evening clouds greet each other. They had recognized me.”

― Rainer Maria Rilke, Stories of God: A New Translation

Food For Thought

A journaling topic that Kim Erickson suggests is as following, " Write some things that happened this week that got in the way of your having a joyful day." Well, honestly, I could sit down forever and talk about this topic. It's these kind of affirmations that have really gotten me through the day. I wish I had known about them when I was younger. Middle School and High school might have been a little easier. However, I never really had any bullies attack me then. At that time, the only real bully was my inner-self. I stayed positive and always tried to keep my mind on God and things that do not concern this world. Happy places, quiet places, and dreaming about far off worlds usually kept my mind busy. That is how it is today as well, but sometimes, having a reminder every now and then doesn't hurt. Not everyone is going to be your friend, and not every one is going to send positive vibes. Sometimes you have to do it yourself, you have to wake up thi

for Thursday

s I have been reviewing products for a while now. I usually try to pick items that I actually want to use on a day to day basis. Excitingly, this is one of the recent items I earned in exchange for an honest", unbiased", opinion. My opinion is that it is "awesome!" I will use this bag every time I go to the gym to workout. Of course, my definition of "working out," is not the same as everyone else's definition yet, but I am stepping higher each time. Having fancy gym attire is not required, but definitely very, very helpful. I am sure that people will eventually get tired of hearing about this bag, I am proud to own it. I would have paid the full amount for this bag. It has many, many pockets and a place for your water bottle as well. It not only can be used as a gym bag, but as a travel bag also. I love the length of the shoulder strap. The best part about the shoulder strap is the padding they added for extra support. Thi

Motivational Monday

Think of ten things that you don't believe you can accomplish. 1. Everyone else is achieving their goals right now.... 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Now, re script them and say how you can accomplish them. 1. Success doesn't come over night. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. You don't have to tell me.....I'm not going to tell you mine./ I have them though.....I did write one example. The thing is, everyone has goals that they would like to accomplish in life, but we won't be able to get to all of them. Nobody will. God still loves us just the same. He knows there will be things in life that we would enjoy doing, but He also knows that we won't be able to accomplish all which is why He gave us the verse Matthew 6:33 which reads as following, " Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you." I have had this verse memorized since high school. It's one of those verses that real
