"Just Being Me"

I never understood why we do this, and I am as guilty as the next person, People show us who they are the first time around, But we don't want to believe that's who they are, We ignore all the signs and make up the fantasy of who we want them to be, and then you have the ones that pretend to be something else. We must be careful what we pretend to be, because we are what we pretending to be..When one is pretending the entire body revolts..Almost every man wastes part of his life in attempts to display qualities which he does not possess, and to gain applause which he cannot keep..People will make you think that the grass is much greener on their side, but coming from where I'm from..just a little fertilizer might make mine look a little better,because we know no man can climb out beyond the limitations of his own character..Lets get out of the habit of trying to change people, especially if you don't even know them..I never truly believe what people say, I have to list...

Are we really alone when we have family and friends we spend the holidays with? or Is that statement talking about a mate? because surely if you're lonely when you're alone, you're in bad company.I love it when I get together with my family, We have fun talking about the good ol days. Or just joking around and eating..We have a fish fry Christmas Eve..and Christmas Breakfast..Christmas is about being joyful, thankful that you are alive and in good health,The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree is  the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other “Everyone is lonely, we have to remember that life is to be lived one day at a time. You cannot worry about the past or future. Happiness is in the now, and truth be told Being alone and being lonely are two different things..Isn't it funny that at Christmas something in you gets so lonely for - I don't know what exactly, but it's something that you don't mind so much not having at other times.....

What am I thankful for this This Year as Thanksgiving rolls around once again, You know time waits on no one, I am thankful that I am still alive, My daughter just gave birth to a 6lb 14oz baby girl..Brielle Akira, Yes I am Nana number 5..I wear it well I must say, I thank God for another blessing. I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new.  Its not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgivings,..I am thankful for my family, I may not see my families as I wish but when I do, its always a celebration. For the last 11 months people have come in our lives and gone, We knew some was here for a reason or season. but whatever it was they taught us something I am sure..but if you didn't learn anything, its sure to repeat itself.. I am thankful for my children, all different personalities keep me on my toes. A parents love is whole n...

I often wonder why people have to do what other people do, Can't use their own mind to Judge and person for what they think they are, but have to rely on others to make up their minds for them..Wow..If you like somebody and want to be friends, don't let your other friends influence you. I see this all the time. at work, on f/book. At work if you and your co worker are not getting along, wut does that have to do with me if I am getting along with them? I'm not going to change how i feel about anybody because that's not your favorite person..I have a mind of my own thank you!!I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod; my shadow does that much better..and face book...If you don't want to be somebody friend you delete them, but don't try to get others to do the same because you have a problem with them, Judge for yourself..Don't be a cripple friend..“If you befriend a cripple, you will learn to limp,Think wrongly, if you please...

Have you ever tried to squeeze blood from a stone? It is just not possible.Negativity and criticism may help to develop a thicker skin, but pressed too hard, the skin become stone. Negativity is poison and in all things we reap what we sow. when you are negative without tempering such actions or attitudes with kindness, you create an environment ripe for the breeding of resentment and animosity, hurt feelings are the natural outcome. Some people are so miserable that they want everybody to feel as they do.If you haven't sown anything good. you reap nothing good.You have to sow before you can reap. You have to give before you can get.. Watch how you treat people.Being Hurt and angry doesn't give you the right to get revenge, Vengeance is mine said the Lord..Half of us don't know anything about Our God, You go to Church a few Sundays and you may mutter a nice little prayer, Who I call "Bible Christian" Where all the Christianity stays in the bible and none of it get...
