What Is Your Monday Song?

Here was my song for Monday.

I was speaking to someone yesterday about relationships and I told her that one can not just feel that the world does not go on without the other person, because, it does and so can you.

Relationships are not easy, but that is different from having someone in your life that does not feel the same as you or who has no interest in commitment.  The right person is out there, where, who knows, they could be in another state or country unknowingly making their way to you.

Men of Honor

Hello Family & Friends,

Men, as the holiday season rushes in, I know that the pressures of the holidays, bills etc. may weigh upon you, but remember to not move in haste and just pray.  The holiday is a very intense time for many families, especially those that are struggling, but family is a blessing and is really  what matters, spending time together, giving thanks for one another, giving hugs and saying "I love you."  Just to be able to see family members another year, is the biggest gift.  So, don't let the commercial side of the holidays stress you o.k.:)  Just my two cents.

What Is Your Monday Song?

Hello Everyone,

I have been quite under the weather and needed rest.  I tried to keep up, but ...... My take away from this is, as I am still in the process of getting better, I can not do it all, I am not wonder woman and I have to pace myself.  I have so many things that I am working on and want to do, but the fact remains, I am one person.   So, everyone, you are only one person, do not try to conquer the mountain, take one thing at a time.

With that said, here is the Monday Song.

Break The Chain of Negativity

Strong Men & Women,

Negativity is toxic and we have to practice daily to be positive.  Some people just have a good disposition and see the glass as half full, but, not everyone is wired that way, maybe the environment in which they grew up was not too happy, this plays out in one's life.  However, it is vital to purposefully seek to be positive, to think and talk positive.  It is also vital to clear out the mind and get rid of old and new thoughts that are poisonous to you.

Prayer is so important in the process of the renewing of the mind.  If you are use to negative thoughts then it certainly is a process to change and maintain the change.  One may change for a day, but the key is not to revert back to that which is toxic.  Something that is toxic does not always have a sudden effect, but overtime it can take a toll on the mind, body and soul.  So, it takes prayer, faith and effort to rid yourself of negativity.  It is good to ask yourself, "what and possibly who is toxic to me and what steps do I need to take to capture all that is positive, so that I may be positive?"  At times this is in spite of, because, there are certain people that you may have to be around who are not necessarily positive, but you can not change that, however, you can pray for them and make sure not to take on any of their negative ways or let it affect your process to be positive.  How do you do this?  Well, first, make up in your mind that you are actively pursuing happiness and peace of mind. Although, you may be inside of a negative environment, you are going to think of the best way to not be of it and maintain your process.  This may mean if a negative comment is made in your presence you tell yourself that you have no comment and that you will not engage in one, you may have to remove yourself from the environment for awhile and leave negative to its own space, you may have to begin to discover how to simply do things that bring you joy, you may need to consider having a talk with that person if they are significant in your life and give them a gentle notification that you are not about being negative and not to expect any conversations that are not positive from you.

Negativity brings on stress and frankly is irritating to one's ability to just be.  Constant negativity is no good and you have to work on replacing it with positive thoughts, people, things, reminders.  Keep a scripture in mind or even written on paper and placed in your pocket, but keep a reminder of where your head needs to stay.  Keep combating the negative, it seems to have its own energy to thrive so you have to have energy to thrive too, but with a positive attitude.  Free yourself from negativity and plan to move your life to letting others keep their negative ways, not taking on negative conversations, and understanding that negativity is toxic.

Start today to make strides to really put positivity in front of you.  Do not share in negativity, just do not take it on.  Everyday, be productive to working on positive, and you will draw positive things and people your way.

What Is Your Monday Song?

Hello Family & Friends,

Here is my Monday song.  As always, I hope that it touches someone.   We must believe that in the storm, we will get through and that in the storm we are strong and shall give praises in and out of the storm.  The storm is for but one moment in our lives, but God's refuge and strength are infinite.  May the song give you assurance.
