The Quarter-Life Crisis
It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are a lot of things about yourself that you didn’t know and may or may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.
You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those...

“Acceptance of one’s life has nothing to do with resignation; it does not mean running away from the struggle. On the contrary, it means accepting it as it comes, with all the handicaps of heredity, of suffering, of psychological complexes and injustices.”
~ Dr. Paul Tournier
The lesson I should have learned YEARS ago is this: Just because I’ve gone through some things that are...

“Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor.”
~Benjamin Franklin
one of The GREATEST things I have learned and possibly will EVER learn is that life will shift…over and over and over. Sometimes it’s a good tide…sometimes not so much… but SO WHAT!! The only thing that determines whether you have a good life or not is how you react to those things!!
Whether good...

The most important lessons i've learned in 2011...
It is explained that all relationships require a little give and take. This is untrue. Any partnership demands that we give and give and give and at last, as we flop into our graves exhausted, we are told that we didn’t give enough.”
~Quentin Crisp
I must say that this is in the top 5 biggest lessons learned this year. For a very long time I’d end relationships out of fear of...

I appreciate all of my followers…you guys really do rock! I respect the different range of opinions, personalities, faith, etc. But one thing that will get you shut down real quick…is if you come at my relationship with MY God.

1. A time to discover God’s will for your life, grow into your own person, travel without abandon, flourish in self-confidence, and become the Proverbs 31 woman you were meant to be.
2. Not a time to wallow, become restless, get angry, or settle for anything less than the man who has been chosen for you. Most of all, this is a time that shouldn’t be taken for...
