Fear

Why is it that fear seems to be a reason that holds us back? Well, some people including me. Is it the fear of the unknown that makes us pause and put on hold what we really want to do? Is it the fear of rejection? The fear of taking risks. The fear of not being good enough?  Fear can bring a lot to a halt.

For me, it is the fear of the unknown. I tend to shut down because I don’t know what is to come. That is why it has been taking a while with my book. I know I am good at writing and have a creative imagination and good ideas. I question everything and think of the what if’s, what if it is not good enough, what if people don’t like what I put out. Questions swimming around in my head and sometimes the fear to continue the projects I have going. Fear to put my work out and fear to fully put myself out there and do what is necessary. The fear to take the risks to get out of my comfort zone. Anyone else had or have this problem? Though there is fear within me I am still trying to overcome it. I tell myself that I must change a lot and be willing to do different things that I normally don’t do. I do feel like it is fear that is holding me back. Writing for this blog sometimes comes easy and I just write and just do. I have two books that I am working on still been a year and need to get them done and published. Want to get over the fear of being rejected and the fear of the unknown. Also, get rid of the overthinking too. Want to get rid of my fear of publishing my books and my fear of driving. I know crazy that I love to write but am scared to put some of my work out in the world. SMH. I know I have to have faith and pray the fears away.

Fears make you stop and not want to do anything. Fear has a way of getting in the way of life. Some people stay living in fear and don’t know how to get out of it. Fear can tear you down if you can’t overcome it. Being afraid can ruin your life.

Again, it can hold some back. And I don’t like that I have a little fear, but it is my life and I own it and trying to change it.

What do you think? Ever feared something in life? Do you like to take risks? Is fear getting in the way of your life? What does fear mean to you?

Blessings and Love! Have Faith.

W.N.T-

My thoughts…..

Sometimes it’s best to sit alone and enjoy the quietness.

Alone with your inner self. Enjoy your being, your life, your dreams

Sometimes it’s best to be alone and sit and think about the future and your happiness and peace.

It’s best to have yourself a zen moment. A to myself moment!

Me, Myself and I

Blessings and Love!

Thank you.

Not the day.

So today I am trying to keep it all together I have been praying all night as well as this morning. I am in a mood this morning and trying to shake these feelings but man nothing is helping at the moment, I know it is morning, but I really want a few drinks just to feel a little numb. On my mom’s side of the family her dad, my grandpa is on life support, and I am feeling down and depressed about it. The last time I have seen him was around this time last year when I went with my mom to Kansas City, Missouri to see her family before she passed. I am at a loss right now and maybe feeling a little guilty for not talking to him or seeing him sooner. I feel bad and beating myself up about it. He is a good man and been good to his family.

Got that news yesterday as well as news of my uncle on my dad side, his big brother is not feeling well and might be going to hospice due to kidney failure which is what my mom dealt with and she died of kidney failure, which in two weeks it will be a year since she passed. She is always on my mind and often want her. So much is going on with me right now, just want to escape it all. Praying for all my family and hoping things get better. It just seems like it is always something especially when I am trying to overcome things of the past. Ugh, today is not a good one, hopefully, I can get over it all. This post is nothing new about my feelings its just I feel it is too much at one time and I feel hopeless, lost, and scared. So tired of losses Damn. Might have to take a trip to Kansas City, Missouri to see family and give my support to my family.

I am sad, hurt, emotions all over the place.

Just wanted to come and vent my heart is heavy all over again and still thinking about my mom so I’m just a lost cause today. Please pray for me. Thank you all for the support and reading my blog I know I tend to just ramble.

Praying for better days…..

Blessings and Love

Just Write IIII

It is a writing night. Ideas are flowing well, and I am feeling confident in my work, it has been a while since feeling this way. My kids are not home this weekend, (Yayyyy, LOL) so I plan to get a lot done with little to no excuses. I got my music going and I am in a zone I must say. Crazy how I was stuck for 2 months on one chapter. But I have it figured out and I am going with what I have and moving on. Hopefully, by Sunday night I have a few more chapters done.

It is a cool night for me. Just writing and chilling enjoying my time alone because I do not get that often, so I am trying to get some writing done and be at peace. Also, this weekend I will be finishing a book I started reading. A book by J.D. Mason called Crazy, Sexy, Revenge, it is a series The Gatewood Family, and I am on book three so cannot wait to finish it, books one and two were good and had me on edge. So that is my night and weekend plans. And of course, writing for my blog also. Again, and yes, I say it a lot but yes writing is my passion! Hope you all have a good one. Just write and be you!

How is yall Friday night? Any new goals this month? Are you writing, brainstorming, reading? Any fun plans?

Blessings and Love!

Unhealthy Habits.

When I think about my body and the bad habits that I have, I think about trying to make a change. I say try because I know that it will be hard and would be a process, especially if it is something that has been done for ten-plus years. I want to try to stop smoking cigarettes. Also, my drinking and smoking have picked up lately. Just doing too much. Need to stop it all. I know that it is not helping me, my mind, body, and soul. Add to that I do not eat healthy either, love junk food too much. Honestly do not know where to start. I have so many bad habits that need to be moderated or cut completely. Damn bad habits.

This is something that has been on my mind, especially the smoking/drinking thing need to get rid of it. Seems like it is getting very excessive, and I try to stop it. Damn bad habits….

Guess I have to check myself on this. Talk to my doctor and do some research and figure out what is best for me. Cut down on the foods that I eat too much of, cut the drinking, cut cigarettes and hopefully fully stop. I will figure this out and make the right decision. Sometimes in life, a change is needed and why not start with the bad, horrible habits that I have. Even on those tough days, I need to find a different and better solution. Damn unpleasant habits…

Most of us have them.

How is it going? Are there any unhealthy habits you would like to get rid of?

Do you wish to make changes soon? Any tips on healthy eating? Stop smoking? Help LOL!!

Blessings and Love!

Rest

Write Prompt Day 2

Rest

When I think of rest I think of a nice warm and comfy place. A place where rest comes easy. Relaxing my mind, my body, and soul, easing my thoughts, soothing my spirits, and trimming responsibilities for the moment. Taking the necessary time to rest and rejuvenate can be good for your well-being and also feel energized to be a mother, work, write, teach, learn, exercise, do anything, and be best at it. Take time for yourself and rest and enjoy it. Rest, Rest, Rest, and stress less. Relax, Ease, Soothe, Trim….

Slow

Write Prompt

Moving slowly and steadily to ensure what you are doing is getting done right. Slow is sometimes good when you want to take your time at things and not rush. It’s cool to slow down Sometimes I like to move slow and be in detail when I do things. Some slow mornings and some slow nights still all is alright. Sometimes moving slowly can be best. I am slowly rising.

Move at your own speed!

Blessings!

T.O.L-Dating

Date or No?

Questioning myself lately and asking am I ready to date? Thinking about relationships, love, and having someone by my side. Getting that lonely feeling. Just a little scared honestly of putting myself out there, letting my guard down. I also think that it is time to at least try to meet new people. I am a homebody and I need to get out of that. Want to live a little and be happy enjoying my life. My life consists of motherhood, working, writing all day every day. Do some different things. Just doing a little thinking well of course and it’s on my mind. Just don’t know when I would work up the courage to actually do it. Lol.

I am still a work in progress and still trying to learn to trust. Blah Blah Blah my life is boring…. Thinking out loud.

Blessings and love!
