Acknowledgement

Today its National Woman’s Day in South Africa, a day we as women get acknowledged by others for our strength, perseverance, forbearance, longsuffering and there a lot of qualities that I can write here. On this day there are marches taking place, some are doing a Big walk all uniting in the UBUNTU (I am because we are) as I am writing this a close friend of mine suggested  that I listen to a song by Barbra Streisand it’s called “Woman in Love” , in the song she describes herself as in giving much of herself and pouring her soul into her relationship. I was curious why he chose that song for me to listen to , and it is simple really because I can resonate, giving much of myself to others and today he took time to acknowledge that character quality of mine. I am much appreciative of that, afterall its woman’s day.

There are many like myself who gets acknowledgement from others very easily yet we long for the people that are in our immediate surroundings to do so on a regular  basis, we can get discouraged and have pity parties and even go as far as question why this is so however will it help us to mope? Will it make us feel better? I know when I mope and have a pity party I feel more depressed than free of it, kinda makes things worse. So how do I counter this? I appreciate others like myself and that is what I would like  to do today, right now for that matter…

I acknowledge you Women, for your strength to never give up, for your positive outlook on life, for your presence you bring into a room, I acknowledge you for your selfless giving and servanthood manner, I acknowledge you for pouring your heart and soul into your family, your friendships and all relationships you are involved in. I acknowledge that you are beautiful, gorgeous made in God’s image, for you are fearfully and wonderfully made. I acknowledge you for the hurt and pain you have gone through and through it all you still have a smile on your face, Women you are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within you. You are powerful beyond measure.

TODAY you can be proud of who you are, who you have become because you have overcome many things and you are still standing! I SALUTE YOU for your courage! Happy Woman’s Day

Don’t wait for someone to acknowledge you, acknowledge yourself and pay it forward to someone else, you will never know the impact that might have so don’t hold back…

Thought for the day...

When someone shares something with you in confidence don't go jumping on their issues' band wagon, don't make their issue yours, respect their issue in the way it is presented to you don't go making up your own stories because in the end the person who shared with you has made peace with it and you who has now made it your issue is just showing that you are not that "mature" to deal with the information given, examine your own heart and deal with your issue accordingly. We are all different and we deal with things differently and work through things differently so let us respect the differences, doesn't make my way right and your way wrong. It is what it is

I THANK YOU...

Today I have this IMMENSE gratitude towards people whom I have known for a season and whom have now either removed themselves from my life with ill intentions or whom has accepted my way of ending our season. I must say I never thought that some friendship doors that I had to close were laying so heavily on my heart and it was holding me back. I do feel FREE and I am moving forward at a pace that is surprising me, ALL GLORY TO GOD! I have such gratitude towards those people who have moved on for whatever reason and I am so filled with JOY this morning that my soul cannot contain it and I want to speak a blessing over each person whom I have had the honor of knowing but who has now moved on, I pray a blessing of GREAT things to come in your life and I PRAY THAT GOD WILL SHOW YOU MIGHTY THINGS AND THAT YOU WILL STAY CLOSE TO JESUS, IN JESUS NAME,MAY YOU LATTER BE GREATER THAN YOUR FORMER, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN! Just a small ENCOURAGEMENT for those out there who is still holding onto to...

No one is always busy...

Such truth in this picture. I saw this picture message on a page I follow on Facebook and it made me think and reflect and I shared it on my page but I didn't elaborate at the time because I was still filled with negative emotions. Then this morning a friend of mine shared it on her page and these are my thoughts about this and I am referring to friendships/relationships with family and just relationships in general. So please allow me to express myself.. What is most difficult to comprehend is that we allow people to have so much space in our lives and they give so little of their time to us...It hurts immensely when you know how committed you are to certain friendships/relationships and you get absolutely the bare minimum and that fact is what is making me walk away from many. Zainonesha had this to say about it " So true...then one has to settle with lame excuses as if our lives are depending on it. Be Honest I would say" Yes I understand that we are all in dif...
