I chose to leave behind several unhealthy relationships with men in my past. I was always hopeful and giving to them. I’d never taken the time to really learn me. I was strong in my profession and weak at understanding the true essence of love. I needed to know my strengths, likes and dislikes, and my light. Instead in these relationships, I often settled and in the end everything would fall apart. So I begin to talk to God and ask for His help. As much as I would like to believe another human being would have the answer but we all know that’s not always true. You see most people are like you and me going through similar situations with unresolved issues. We can’t help each other unless we decide to get right with ourselves. We are undone in many ways than most of us care to admit to ourselves. We have been conditioned to think such flaws are noted as an embarrassment kind of like wearing a scarlet letter in public. However, one day you will be the one deciding your eternal fate not your public. I hope that your one day will be sooner than later in life. I know it’s not an easy task to do and it’s not supposed to be. I decided to forgive myself by working on improving who I am everyday. I continuously pray for my purpose in life because that’s where self joy, peace, and happiness lives. I now understand that a person is not defined by his past actions but by his character. This is often said and never done. I want to apologize to the people I’ve misjudged over my life because I never took the time to know me. I am work in progress and it looks good from here.
Keep Shining Yall!
