Accept Yourself

Good morning, learning to accept yourself can be one of the hardest things we go through in life. We are encouraged by others to gain their acceptance to gain a high self-esteem when the real key to a high self-esteem is not gaining anyone else’s acceptance but your own. The people we attempt to mimic that we think have high self-esteem at least from the outside are the people that usually have some sort of low self-esteem inside. Modest appearances are the self-esteem images that we should be looking to gain. They are not insecure or envious of their fellow man for they are comfortable within and can stand without a hand. A monstrous hand of shame that is envious and vain to humiliate all in its path will bring down anyone who shows seniority. Our perceptions have been overcast with a black cloud of people we allow to gain a pedestal view over us. King, Queen, President, Commissioner or Director, they are all the same. A human being just like the skin we possess. They should not make us feel any less about ourselves just because of their title. We have the right to secure a self-esteem that is beyond this world but humble ourselves to acknowledge their existence and utilize their power to display our own talents. Never give someone that much power over you that you deny your own existence.

Image Created

Good afternoon, we create images of ourselves for others to see but when the mirror is held up for us to see the image we have created we do not like what we have produced. Truth becomes negativity in only our light because we believe in what we created as if it were gold. Not realizing the image we created for others to reflect upon is negative. There are dangerous lines crossed in a single step when not giving forth a great perception for one to believe in. When what you have created reflects a negative image, you cannot cast a stone at the one holding the mirror but the one in the mirror. Change is always possible but to give hope in its existence there has to be a ripple in your reflection. Encourage that you can be trusted to reflect a new image through actions of great will. The negative image you reflect now is by choice and by choice your actions will show the change you are trying to make. Giving false hope off your intent will only lessen your trust with others and support a more powerful negative reflection. Actual change does start from within but is reflected on the outside. The images we are scripted to see as negative are the ones that leave the most positive impressions on society. “Keep hope alive” didn’t really die in 1999 when Mandela left office but reincarnated through time to relive through Obama in 2009. Have you produced a likable mirror image for one to reflect upon or have you allowed a script to let you think that within your reputable smile there’s a positive reflection ultimately showcasing negativity? Everyone has positive attributes, we all need to hone in on them to bring out the true image we want reflected.

Emotional Guard

Good morning, we are all emotional creatures, now whether we allow ourselves to feel or get in touch with these emotions is a different story. We all love to feel wanted and pleased in some shape or form. We follow a path of blocking all entrances to emotional attachment and feeling. We do not want to be bogged down with the responsibility that comes with it. In the long run we long for what we have denied ourselves for so long. At times when we’ve gotten to that point life has really passed us by and we are now in search for something that we could have had the whole time. Contrary to what you may think that closeness is what helps encourage us to be a better person. Gaining a best friend or embracing the sister or brother you may already have gives you the empowerment you need to foresee your goals in life. We are moved by the graces of others that are fighting with the same compassion to reach their ambitions. Your aspirations may not be the exact same but your drive to reach them will stand the test of time together. You should have seen who was really by your side or just along for the ride during this season. So now you have some idea of who you can instill your true emotional feelings. Remember your guard is to protect you but it can also hinder you if not let down at some point.

Season of Giving

Good morning, sometimes we chose the wrong path and encounter hazardous people. We are not aware of how hazardous they are until we miss the ones we lost to them. Holiday times bring out the best and worst in people. You will see who really cares and who’s just along for the ride. In this season of giving how much is really returned to ones that have given all year. Undeniable gratitude is shown in many different ways sometimes words are not enough to feel the appreciation of ones heart. Open your souls to see the true being before you. Take notice of the devious love to recognize the envious love that is shared with you. Make yourself vulnerable for a moment and share what’s inside with someone close by. We all deserve to feel what is given to us from the one we least expect. Open your hearts this season to show unconditional feeling of hope to someone who truly deserves to see they are loved and appreciated just as much as you. Warm hearts on cold nights bring joy in every light. May the heavens above bless you for blessing someone else.

Ignorant Learning

Good morning, don’t close your mind no matter how much you think you know there’s always more to learn. No matter how much we fight the learning process it never ends. Subconsciously we grow until we can grasp those concepts in our conscious mind. Ever wonder how the light bulb clicks on, well there’s your answer. You see there are many things that we are aware of and store until we can put 2 and 2 together and make 4. The only question there is how 2 and 2 made 4. Don’t ever take something just for what has been told or what you may think you see. Sometimes looking beyond the human eye can under a true mystery. Dig deep and learn wise. Never close the adventurous mind. Stop ignoring and fighting erudition in life. A closed mind is ignorant to the world around them but an open mind is less ignorant to the coming world.

Skill Ranking

Good afternoon, we want to be experts to later be able to teach someone else. But there is a ladder of skill that must be climbed to reach that goal. We all start as beginners, novice as we say, learning to grasp the fundamentals. Now to apply what we have learned we climb another step into becoming experienced but to become experienced it takes practice but you need more than just experience to become an expert. An expert, we believe to be the highest ranking, is a specialized with knowledge to grasp and reciprocate. If no one starts as an expert, who mentored the first novice? Guess that’s just like the question, “who came first the chicken or the egg?” The thing is the chicken has to lay the egg for the egg to exist but the chicken had to hatch out the egg to exist. So where’s the beginning? That’s one question we’ll never have the answer to but there’s always a new beginning and that starts with you. You ladder of skill is right before you which ranking are you? Novice, experienced or expert, and even in between we all have something to learn from everyone no matter which ranking. There’s a light that can be seen at different angles, even as a novice.

Human Nature

Good morning, as the saying goes, “we’re only human.” But what does that really mean? Is that our way of making excuses for our wrongs and feeling better about ourselves? The man-made definition only establishes an existence of people. There is no where in the definition that states human is a flaw and that we as humans are excused from making mistakes since we are only human, right? Wrong, we find excuses for our flaws in any way we can. There is no excuse for flaws but that’s not to say we all don’t have them. Flaws are our way of learning who we are. They help make us individuals to the cause of humanity. You will find a flaw in every human but being human is not a flaw. Lessen the excuse and learn from the flaw. We are only creatures of habit if we stay content within the man-made creation. We could not create ourselves so existence is beyond us and so is our definition.

Milestone of Success

Good morning, society’s structure of milestones and charts we place ourselves on to create some sort of status. How can we base our development in life on a bunch of clinical words that we don’t really understand? Who is to say that because you do not catch on to something as fast as a peer that you are slow or retarded? The labels we place upon society to dictate who we are and where we are going should be erased. Individually you can be successful without money, cars, jewelry, and a degree. These things don’t make you or break you unless you feed into the feculence that is fed to us each day. There are many words of wisdom but by your own interpretation. Your guide can be in the same book but leading to a different path. The big books of life don’t all follow the same rules. Each of us has our own light to follow and there are no clinical words to describe the stages of that path of success. We develop at our own pace with no charts to climb. Keep in mind we are all special and our status here on earth means nothing to the heavens above. Judgment day will come at the same price to all. Your money, cars and degree cannot buy you a way in they have no value. Remember that when you are bragging about what you have accomplished and how much success you really have. Look within to find your milestone of success.

Talk Is Cheap Success

Good morning, we hate upon each other but only behind closed doors. We cannot face each other with the words so cautiously spoken because we have no real leg to stand on. We find it entertaining to meddle with envious inhabitants. Accepting there are things out of our control that will be unorthodox to what we know and have been taught. So we resent what we are not familiar with becoming the judgmental bigot that we all have fought at one point in our lives. A candid voice amongst the deceitful mockery is always deterred to save face. Not realizing that there is no dignity in childish ridicule. Self-esteem is low even in the biggest ego you can find that cannot face thy enemy and continue to whisper jealous thoughts that have no relevance but to entertain the fanatics of humiliation. They say misery loves company, so to create a sense of value some have to diminish the value of another to empower themselves. The fascination of an eccentric lifestyle has entertained us through travesty but has become successful with our own charades. Talk may be cheap but not if you flip it and make it a fortune. As long as there’s talk there’s impact. Let’s give them something to talk about.

Transform Negative into Positive

Good morning, negative has become a strong word in our vocabulary that has created a great stigma in life. Utilizing this word in any way brings a condescending demeanor to the environment. One wrong button can be pushed with its effect. The term is constantly used out of context when we are unaware or afraid of something. We push negativity when we believe that we are right and everything else is wrong. Just because it’s a different avenue doesn’t make it negative. Truth becomes negative when we do not want to face it. Discouraged by the end results we place blame and shout negativity. Fear not the negative but become open to a different side of positivity. Realistic facts that are estrange to us become negative thoughts that race through our heads. To become real with ourselves we must become vulnerable to the light that opens the pathways to findings that beyond belief. There are many sides to a story as well as to us. We must connect with each side of ourselves to see what levels of positivity we can endure. There are possibilities that we are not capable of being open and honest with ourselves to bring on something so powerful. At times it can be overpowering and out of our control. Don’t let the “status quo” negativity ruin the positive outcome to enjoy the natural satisfaction we run from every day. It is possible to find positive in what we believe or have been taught to believe is negative. You just have to be willing to open yourself to that light.

Consistentcy Game Plan

Good morning, we tend to play this strategic game when it comes to consistency. We believe that if we lay out the ground work first we should be on a great path from then on. But we didn’t prepare for the game plans that were in effect that intervened with our plan. Then we veer off course becoming unstable and not knowing where to go. Building a solid opening and preparing for the unexpected will keep us on a consistent path that cannot be intruded upon. Stand behind what you believe to be right and what you see as a great plan. Never let something throw your equilibrium off and stir you into an unruly situation where you cannot handle things being thrown at you. Solid foundation gives you a sturdy plot to build upon. Stay consistent with your heart and follow your mind. You will balance your own decisions without distractions.

Value of a Coward

Good morning, we lose valuable aspects of our lives each day. We may not realize until it’s too late that it’s true worth but our coward acts overpower the truth. Truth may hurt at times but it’s worth it. We believe we are different than the next man but are we truly? We think we know but do we really? What do we know that makes us so different? We make take different steps but we end up on the same path at one point and time as the ones we don’t want to be compared to. Comparisons may be hard to bear when we struggled to be so different and then to see we are only the same. In reality we are scared of being too different. We like feeling apart of something so to stray too far away is just not the sensible thing to do. We lose respect fitting in and become typical. When we can find our own leg to stand on and have the courage to not be apart we will gain respect. Then maybe we can find a way to hold on to those precious pieces we lost. Lose the fear and gain courage to show what has true value.

Life's Movie Cast

Good morning, we all play different roles in life. Each role is uniquely defined by our own upbringing. We may share the same titles but don’t play the role the same way. Each person possess different skills and at different magnitudes. Some can learn from one another and some can learn from what they did not see. There are many ways to enhance each role when played by different characters. Just because some roles share some of the same responsibilities doesn’t make them the same. Some roles may take precedence over others but that doesn’t mean that the other role is less valuable. Your value is not determined by what someone else thinks of you but what you think of yourself and how you treat others around you. This is playing your role and being good at it. Each role has boundaries that have been placed for good reason. Crossing these boundaries leaves you in dangerous territory and now you are liable for all repercussions. Own up to it, man or woman, take your place and state your claim. Next time you’ll know to stay within your perimeter. This should not limit you on exercising your role to its fullest but it should let you know you cannot take on someone else’s role if they’re already there. We are all important but we are all human. Appreciate your role and respect others. You wouldn’t want someone to take over your role. Every role needs another. Play your part to make the perfect picture.
