My first love

Oooohhhhhhh how I remember you! You were the first one that gave me butterflies, made my heart flutter, and my mind race. You taught me the true meaning of passion. Before you, I couldn't fathom the REAL meaning. Nothing on this earth could keep me from loving you! You continue to bring a smile to my face! I admire you, because there aren't many that can make me "cheese" this hard from a mere thought.You're the one I daydream about. I often wish you were still a huge part of my life and not just a fading memory. I miss you sooo much! I thank God for you, you taught me sooo much. You taught me that it was ok to just be me! You taught me about confidence and that being "different" was considered "expressive" in your eyes! You made me feel like I could take over the world. You were dependable, I knew I could count on you to be there when I needed you most. You took me places I never thought I'd get to go. You showed me that my creativity was almost effortless. You showed me that no amount of training could surpass my God-giving talents. I feel like the sky was the limit for us and I let you down....and for that I'm sorry. I still get teary-eyed sometimes when I think back on how great we were together. I can imagine where we would be today, now that we're older and more mature, if only I would've hung on! Thank you for being you and bringing out the best in me! I'm forever grateful to you & humbled by you!

DANCE....as long as I live, you'll be my first love!

Just me & u!

Having moments of weakness does not mean that your without faith, it simply means your human. So often I become consumed in being strong, I start to believe the facade sometimes. Tears cleanse the soul and don't allude to weakness as much as it reminds us of the ability to connect with our emotions.

I can't lie, lately I've questioned myself...."are you doing something wrong?" I'm attempting to stay patient and faithful although it's hard being alone. Gotta remember there's a difference between alone & lonely! I know I wrote "don't allow your loneliness to consume you," but that's definitely easier said than done. It's f-'d up when you're forced into being solo, because the one you thought was for-ever wasn't even good enough for-now! One thing I won't do is settle....no need to!

All my dreams and aspirations for me and my fam (which includes a husband) are on the horizon. I'm so thankful that I came out of my past better and not bitter. Lord knows that couldve went the other way! My faitfulness is consistent and I will not withhold it because of my past. I understand that I was made this way for a reason & refuse to let ANYONE change me. I'm a great catch, so catch me if you can!:-)

Would've came back for you.....

Would've came back for you, I just needed time.....~Drake

One thing we all want more of is time. Over the years, I have grown to learn that EVERY moment is made to prepare you for what's next. You have to take advantage of this time, because you can never get it back! With faith, we believe that God doesn't make mistakes. In saying that, we are inadvertently saying that all things work together for the best (good or bad). With faith, comes the acknowledgement that you trust God. The trials & challenges of today are necessary for you to move into your purpose tomorrow. Your faithfulness amidst these challenges are what counts. We all acknowledge our faith in God, yet we will (in the same breath), discount our faith because we are attempting to understand things we can not.

Faith is - a strong belief in a supernatural power or powers that control human destiny. With faith, we have to give God the glory over all situations. For time spent (it can not be a waste), & for those that have wronged us(we must forgive). We must measure our lives not by the time spent but by our actions, growth and success!
