Some days we are really reminded what is important in life. No matter what form it comes in, LOVE is what makes the world a better place. When bad things happen, when your life is tossed upside down, when it seems like there is no sunshine in your universe, the people who LOVE US show up and help us find that reason to keep going and the reason to keep smiling.

Good Evening All!
HOPE Find what gives you hope and hold onto it. I have a daily battle sometimes to find Hope, but I have been incredibly blessed with AMAZING people in my life who help me find that hope, when I struggle at times. Do your best not to lose hope, and fight for your Hope because everyone deserves to have HOPE in their life.
HOPE is like a wildfire, once it catches on, it is nearly impossible to stop! Happy Tuesday! Share with me what gives you hope! Happy November Everyone! Most people do this lovely tradition in November where they say something they are thankful for everyday for 30 days. We are going to do a variation of that with this blog, we are going to do 30 Days of Blessings! They can often times be the same as things we are thankful for, because we should always be thankful for our blessings . I am a day behind, and I apologize so I am going to cover Day 1 & 2 together, and then do DAILY postings through the month. Day 1: My greatest Blessing is my KIDS. For several reasons, I am so thankful to be blessed with these two amazing little men, and I am so proud daily to be their mom and guide through this life. They have taught me what is the true meaning of unconditional love, and how to show it daily. They love me even when I am being tough or tell them no, and I am so grateful to be able to love them and teach them how to love and how to be loved. I am forever elated to be BLESSED with such amazing, exhausting, never stopping boys. Day 2: My blessing today is my HEALTH. It hasn't always been an easy, but I am on a happy plateau in my life where I am fairly healthy and I am able to exercise, and keep up with my active incredible boys. I have been blessed with people in my life who support my new journey, and they will get their own days of blessings, but they are apart of my current health upswing and I want them to know I appreciate their love and support.
Remember to Count your Blessings DAILY!! And don't forget that sometimes the simplest things in life are truly our greatest blessings!! Please share with me YOUR blessings! Happy Monday All!! How often do you genuinely count your blessings? Do you find that you only count them when things are good? Odds are when you need to realize them most, you are not able to see how blessed we really are.
Most people's blessings are obvious, family, friends, children, job. However, there are times in our lives when we think of these blessings as not so wonderful. After a really long day at work, we think "Why do I continue to go to that place?" instead, try thinking, "At least I have a job to go to and take care of myself and my family". When we have a really rough day with the kids, trust me I have a lot of these, we often find ourselves thinking "OH I need a break, just some time to recover and time to myself" but we need to try to remember that there are families out there who would give anything under the sun to have that overwhelmed feeling because they are unable to have kids. I have been through a lot of hard times and a lot of loss in my life, but something I have to constantly remind myself is that I was blessed to have that person in my life to begin with, or blessed to have that experience. I hope this all makes sense, keep in mind I am a single mom and sometimes my thoughts get jumbled. HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!! |
