Blank Pages of Life

  In life there are certain things that we all must face.  The pages must be written by ourselves alone because no one else can tell our stories.  It is kind of like staring at a blank page when you begin an essay or story.  There is nothing more scary than not knowing what is coming next in our lives.  God did not mean for us to walk alone but I believe that is most interesting part of the journey.
    A blank page just stares at us screaming out for something to be written on it.  There is nothing like having a problem and not knowing what it is.  If you can imagine with me for a minute.  Take a trip in your mind to a far off place in which you have never been.  Imagine that you are going through a dark tunnel and can not see around you.  The Devil wants to make us think we are alone but there is always light somewhere.
     A blank page to a write is sord of like being in a world by yourself not knowing what is going to happen.  You are always in perpetual motion trying to think of the following words to write down.  Somehow the words though, eventually come flowing through and onto paper just like it was never a problem.  It is funny to me how scary a blank page really can be.  Did you ever take a moment and think about your own blank pages?  There is so many stories to tell, but did you forget a page or two because you were not patient enough to wait on God?
     Blank pages are not really that scary when you think of all the wonderful topics that could be written down.  Life is so full of surprises, whether good or bad.  Just like a little kid at Christmas time, we are always wanting something more every day that we live.  Of course it is natural as humans to want more but let us take a few minutes to mediate fore a few minutes each day what we could write down on a blank page.  Do we really want more or can we embellish what we have and make it look better?
      It is too common to have blank spaces in our daily journals.  My question to you is do we really take time to make our stories more interesting to those who see us on a regular basis? Do we have a blank page just sitting there staring at us?  Blank pages are my friends.  I love to write little stories in order to help people feel better about themselves but sometimes that is not possible.  However it is up to us alone, to make sure all the pages in our book of life are embellished and pretty instead of filled with empty pages of boredom.  So take thought in what I am saying here, let us be willing to share our journey to encourage others. #22q  #beblessed

Review Time!

I love getting products like these in exchange for an honest review!!! I just got a new iphone6s and these cords work perfectly.  As you see, I received three lightning cables in the mail to charge my iPhone 6s. I am going to leave one in my car and one near my wall charger. I am going to give the other cable to my mom as she has an iPhone 6 Plus.  These cables are great and worth the money because there are not just one but three cords included in the package. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U0Q0IP6

Ten Ways I Stay Motivated

1.  Start the day with prayer or meditation. 2. Brew a good cup of coffee. 3.  Go over my list of goals. 4.  Set new goals ones the old ones are accomplished. 5.  Listen to motivational podcasts or youtube videos. 6.  Read biographies of people who have survived cancer or some amazing trauma.  This helps to remind me that no problem is too big for God. 7.  I try to look in the mirror and say affirmations every morning.  Some of these affirmations are the same ones and some are different.  8. Try to keep a good, constant routine. 9.  Write or draw in my journal. 10.  Reward myself for accomplishments.  After all, you deserve it. Hope you have a wonderful week !!  

Keeping a Positive Outlook

 There is nothing more depressing than a person who is always negative. It seems so hard to contain a positive outlook on life. Writing is a way for me to relax and reflect on Gods many mercies and wonderful things that He has in store for my future. I try to stay away from Negative Nancy" as they say and surround myself with people who have the same interests as I do.   If at all possible, I would like to encourage others along the way as well. Everyone has their hurdles to jump, no matter how tall they might seem.  Until you have walked in someone else's shoes, do not judge them.    Someone else's battles may seem small to someone from a far distance when in reality the certain difficulty might be a lot strenuous than it seems. That person just may know how to smile through their tears better than just rolling in them all day long.  I know some people that do not look handicap at all because the handicap is not visible to the naked eye but they need...
