Stefanny... Founder and Owner of Juice Rox

I want to bring u all to the attention of Juice Rox Jewelry line. But Before we go into what Juice Rox is about, allow me to introduce my dear friend Stefanny AKA Juice.

      I met Juice about six years ago. She was standing on the side of the stage getting ready to practice a couple of songs with us. We both attended the same church and were in the same choir. Even though she seemed lost and very much shy, she stood out like a spark of light against the ocean waves.
      Lost I thought she was but quickly showed me she wasn't. Her smile was a well welcomed sight and her laughter...well, U just have to experience it. LOL! Her hugs are always pure and genuine and her support to listen and to advice are always clear and comforting.
      Our friendship grew from just a few mins. of us sharing choir practice. And through the years we always managed to stay in contact. I see her as a little sister. A person who can teach me as much as I can teach her. When at the most anguish times in my life, Juice always managed to appear. She brings the sun to my clouds and changes my moment of sadness into happiness.

      "I HONOR YOUR SPIRIT OF LIFE, FAITH, TRUST AND FRIENDSHIP. I THANK U!"

      Stefanny started making jewelry at the age of 12. She developed a passion that only increase as time proceeded. As time past, this passion grew into something she wanted to share with others.
      With this hope to make beautiful pieces she started her own Jewelry line called "Juice Rox." Her line is completely unique because she doesn't remake her pieces and makes one of each.

In her own words "I feel that as individuals its very important for us to have pieces of jewelry that represent us for who we are. I often make custom pieces using specific color patterns from certain beads. All the beads I use are Natural Semi-Precious stones, along with Seeds and various nature made products."

 I wanted to share with U all the passion in becoming an entrepreneur and dreaming a bigger dream. She decided to go ahead and follow her heart. She made this dream a reality. Not just for her but for all of us who are being told "it's not possible"
Yes... it's possible to take your passion into your own hands and make it real!

      Not only is Stefanny(Juice) being blessed by creating this line but she is paying it forward by creating pieces that speak to us.
In her own words once again: "Fell free to contact me if there is a piece you would like to see in person, considering that's the best way to truly appreciate my hard work ;)"

Thank U all for giving me time to share my friends life with U!

RETURNING BACK TO MY INNER THOUGHTS!

Sam Cooke
 
 
HE WROTE THIS FOR US ALL!
 
I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die
Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother
And I say brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees
Ohhhhhhhhh.....

There been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will.
 
 
MY LAST POST WAS FIVE MONTHS AGO. I THOUGHT, WHAT CAN I POST TO BRING BACK MY INNER THOUGHTS TO U ALL. MY DECISION WAS SAM COOKE!

Desert Rhythms: Learning 2 Do out of your Being. FOR THE FAITHFUL HEARTS!

If you don't take care of your being, your doing is affected. Everybody is AFFECTED! 


You need to find your Center, your Grown, or your Anchor!!!


FIND YOUR DESERT RHYTHMS


ASKED THESE ?'s and SEE if you can find your Center, Grown, or Anchor in them.


1. U avoid silence, and when u do, your mind constantly races.
2. U skip or skim on Sabbath.
3. U hurry a lot.
4. U position urself so that others think well of u.
5. U say "Yes" when U would rather say "No".
6. U are resentful and tired because u regularly "try to do it all".
7. U rarely taste ur food as a gift of God.
8. U have little mindfulness of delighting in Christ's love during the Day.
9. U are often unaware when ur body is full of tension.
10. U have little or no awareness when u are having an overreaction.
11. U check ur social networks 15 or more times a day and it's the last thing u do before u go to bed.


IF U HAVE AGREED WITH 3 OR LESS, U ARE A LITTLE OUT OF BALANCE / IF U AGREE WITH 4 TO 7 THEN SOME SERIOUS ADJUSTMENTS NEED TO BE MADE. / 8 OR MORE THEN U NEED A MAKEOVER FROM INSIDE OUT!


I have checked all thy above I am doing right now. I have No Desert Rhythms because I've made other things more important.


To have DESERT RHYTHMS means------>"Daily" taking time to meditate, writing in ur journal, reflecting in ur day before it begins, really listening to calm music, reading a good book but understanding what you're reading. etc. etc. etc.


WORKING ON YOURSELF... PERIOD!


REMEMBER FAITHFUL HEART: When you're triggered by somebody and you're over reacting, that will tell u something about u and not them.


Mark 1:21-39

A Blessing!

A GOD-MOMMY(parent) is a spiritual light of grace and wisdom. It's the ability to welcome a free soul to rest under your wings. It's a chance to love unconditionally a child of God. To embrace, to celebrate, and to be at one with the teachings of his/her parents. It's a bond that is unbreakable. A chance to share stories of your upbringings and pass them on to him/her.
 
*IT'S TO INSURE THE FOUNDATION IS TWICE AS STRONG, BEFORE THE BUILDING BEGINS TO BE BUILT.

IT'S WALKING IN FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT.*


I seat in silence thinking how beautiful this moment is for me. Thinking how humble my Lord is to have picked me to be this precious little boy's God-mommy. 

When his daddy placed him in his grandmother's arms, I took a breath because it represented unconditional love from the past to the present. 

When his daddy then took him and placed him in my arms, my heart became full. It was that moment God touched me and said, "U are and will be a great God-mommy and this is why I picked U."

I kissed his forehead as he slept in my arms and I promised God that I will do what He ask of me to do for Kaleb. 

I looked at his mommy and she smiled knowing I would keep my Promise. 

It's great to have Faith because Faith will fill your walk of life better then a blast of sight!

Madrina(AkA-->GodMommy) Loves U Kaleb...

GO GET UR MoJo BACK------>>> Motivation & Joy

We walk around this earth (we call home) thinking "what now, where do we go from here, how can it be different, why us and what is the purpose?" Questions we asked everyday on many occasions during our daily living.

We watch others and we watch their lives as if it's better then ours. They don't have problems and they live so much better then us... thoughts we feed our hearts. "If only my life could be so much better" We say this to ourselves over and over again.

This is how we think. This has become our way of living. This is our train of thoughts!!!

WHY? WHY? WHY?  WE THINK THIS WAY BECAUSE THINKING NEGATIVE IS EASIER THEN WORKING ON THINKING POSITIVE. 

Our family members have done so for many years and they raised us to be selfish and think negative. It's a broken cycle that they never had reference to break free from.

YOU CAN'T ALWAYS BE NEGATIVE AND EXPECT PEOPLE TO BE POSITIVE ABOUT YOU!

The battlefield for the believer is the mind... GET UR MOJO BACK!
WHEN WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO CHANGE A SITUATION, WE ARE CHALLENGED TO CHANGE OURSELVES.
1ST CHANGE YOUR SYSTEM OF BELIEF(YOUR MIND)

WE MUST TRY TO SEE BEYOND OUR TEARS... HAVE FAITH!!!
EVEN THOUGH WE LIVE IN A WORLD FULL OF SORROW WE MUST UNDERSTAND THAT IT DOESN'T LIVE IN US.

A CHANGE MUST TAKE PLACE... LETS START WITH U... THE READER!

As the writer, I started to change my system of belief by practicing what my Faith is.
FAITH---->>>> CONFIDENCE, BELIEF THAT IS NOT BASED ON SIGHT. BELIEF OF A HIGHER POWER OF SALVATION, ORDER AND CHANGE.

WILL U ALLOW YOUR FAITH TO RETURN YOUR MOJO BACK WHEN TIMES ARE OF NEGATIVE FEELINGS AND HOPES ARE OF LOW ENERGY.


GO GET UR MOJO BACK... DON'T ALLOW NOTHING TO TAKE IT AWAY!

John 14 (Read the Message Translation) U NOW HAVE REFERENCE TO DO SO!

WHY?

Why are signs ignored cause WE "love" someone.... 
Why do we ignore the GOOD ones for the BAD ones? 
Why do we block the truth out to accept lies? 
Why? 
Why do we hold on when we know we should let go? 
Why do we make excuses? 
Why do we procrastinate and expect results? 
And why do we complain when we can get out? 
Why? 
Why do we feel we can't get better? 
Why do we doubt ourselves? 
Why is it so easy to hate instead of love?
Why is it so hard to forgive? 
Why is it easier to believe a lie than the truth? 
Or is it that we want to believe the hatred and gossip? 
Why?

WHAT DO U KNOW FOR SURE??

As I step into another stage in my life, of growth, of loyalty, of teachings and learning's; I've asked myself "WHAT DO U KNOW FOR SURE?"

I know for sure my heart will always go on to stand with strong beats in someone's life. I know for sure my hope will out last someone's doubts. I know for sure the gift to keep giving others will overwhelm the questionable minds. I know for sure I will forever stay humble and honest; to love with passion and sensitivity. I know now for sure that when I NOW cry, they are tears of joy. TEARS OF FINALLY UNDERSTANDING AND FINALLY KNOWING WHY!

I know for sure when I write it's because I want to write and it comes from my soul. I know for sure I use passion in my words. I know for sure when to pick the time, day and moment. I know for sure that I am POWERFUL!

Today I was faced with many early obstacles and for a moment I felt powerless, out of control and even less then. 


I quickly took control of that moment, asked myself ""Are u going to allow these obstacles to take the best from u?"    
"NOPE, HELL NO AND I BELIEVE NOT!!!"

So I handled it with respect for me and with respect towards the situation and obstacles. I excepted the Karma that I once dismissed and took responsibility for my past mis-conduct. 

IT FELT SOO GOOD AND SOO FREE! I felt like a happy person who has it all. Health, Love, Freedom, Money, and Power. 

I'm learning that as a person U can have all this when U learn to see it for what it is. When U reach into your foundation and U can see a solid ground and U can feel it; It's when U know U can start to built and understand.

So... I ask U one more time:

WHAT DO U KNOW FOR SURE??

A Dear Cheddy Letter/ I share with U all

Dearest Cheddy

I'm full of emotions as I think of what to write to u. Watching U today, dealing with wanting to be present and dealing with your emotions, touched my heart. I'm so proud of the person u have become. U went from spinning out of control to pulling the parachute right on time.

I'm honored to have shared time with u, to have followed your tears and even stumbled into your laughter's. Through it all, u managed to pick yourself up, brush your shoulders and u went forward. I know that in life u have your falling out and u might have to face obstacles but I'm so confident that u will deliver each time with your head healed up high.

You're such a great spirit. U are a caring person, a loving person and a spiritual person. U have been in the mist of many storms and have walked away with some pain. But now; now u walked away completely UN-harm. I don't know where u get the strength from but I do know where your hope comes from.

I know u are battling with your last email u wrote and I know it will take time for u to completely let it just be. But for u to understand that it is just emotions expressed on paper... well... that's great of u. It takes a big person with great beauty to have compassion. I know u have just that!

It has taken me 37 years to write to u and just thank u for being the person u are. I know the passion u carry inside, to just love and be loved. And I truly know that special person will step into your arms and will not want to be let go.

I wish u so much love and hope. U have the Grace of God and the Presence of Mercy.

I remember one blue day u asked me... "what is my purpose in my life?"
"what am I living for?" and I just listened to u but I had no answer.

But now... I want to repeat what I heard u say to me not to long ago.


You said... "my purpose in life is my voice,spirit and humility. I am to show others what hope is. To share my knowledge with others and to be present." "I live for me and for my faith and for my Godson. To teach him to be a great person. I want to live a journey of hope and salvation"

When I listened and stayed present in your view, I instantly cried and lived. U might be living again for many others but I personally feel u are finally alive for U.

Thank u for showing me what greatness looks like and thank u for telling me that Hope really does Float.

I love u soo much and may God keep blessing U!
Cheddy

Validate Yourself Now not Later!

"I am completely present when I say what I say..."

FEELINGS WE ALL NEED TO REMEMBER TO USE IN OUR DAY TO DAY. BE HONEST WITH U FIRST! 

I'm sharing this information with u all because it was shared with me. My therapist has worked with me to learn to appreciate myself and to put myself first on the list. I have been working on Me and I want U to work on U! 


STARTING POINTS FOR YOUR SOUL HEALING!


If U are invited somewhere or asked to do something but you're not comfortable and that person expects for U to explain WHY; U can simply say "that doesn't work for me"

Remember: U don't have to give drawn out explanations or be sorry for your decisions, u can just say...


It's not about U, it's not a problem, you are not a bad person but that doesn't work for me.
U have to teach people to respect U when U put U first.
Remember: they are use to U putting them First, so be kind and patient and allow them to understand your growth and faith in U.
If they suggest something different and U feel at ease, calm and peace then U can say...
Now... "this does work for me" 

In order for U to be respected and put first U have to change your way of action. 
BECOME KIND AND STAY IN THE PRESENT! DON'T DISCONNECT FROM THE MOMENT.

ASK THEM: Family, Friends, Associates, anyone u interact with...
  • Is this a good time? Maybe to meet, greet and or speak.
  • Work on being present in the moment and if U can repeat word for word what has been told to u... Do So! 
  • I would like a Do Over! if u said something wrong or hurtful, ask for a Do Over.
Teach People to change the way they treat U. Be sharp in your actions, show and give love and compassion and be your own leader. 


U must be validated by others because U validate yourself. 

Above all... Have Faith in Your Higher Power!!!

DEEP THOUGHTS I HAD TODAY!

Hello U all... welcome to my inner thoughts of today. 

I had a lovely conversation with a dear person today. My reasons for living more now then ever has been made clear to her. She understands my today's and she understands my yesterday's.


I'm present in everything I do today. When I'm in a conversation with people, I'm present. When I'm writing, I'm present. And when I'm speaking, I'm present.


How many of you all have been in a deep conversation, and mentally have drifted away somewhere far; Have returned back to that moment hearing the person you are conversating with ask you "where the hell did u go?" "it seems u just daydreamed."

Guess what... You just disconnected briefly from that moment. Whatever the conversation was, you needed to disengage. 

For a large part of my life, up to a few months ago, I was doing just that. It's easy to leave the moment mentally and go some where safe mentally. I call it my safe zone. At least for me, it was my SAFE ZONE. The pain was less. Emotionally I just didn't want to deal with the present bullshit. And while the conversation accured or the gatherings with family and friends took place, I would disconnect, protect myself and be in my safe zone.

You Ask: WHY ARE YOU INFORMING US "THE READERS" OF THIS? 

Because I want you to see my heart of Gold and understand that as bruised and beat up as my heart has been, I managed to survive and live again.

I have stumbled and have falling hard. Not able to even get up. Not wanting to keep going. Just giving up on many things. And this was when I started to laugh and giggle and smile and shine.
When the tough was too hard, My heart beat stronger and my soul became powerful. 

Five and half years ago, I admitted being an alcoholic. I cried like never before. I seeked help and got clean. Two years and five months ago today I relapse, cried and seeked help again.

When you attend AA meetings, the first thing they teach you besides your name being attached to your problem, was... how to truly have Faith in a Higher Power.

Because without that Faith in your Higher Power... AA Meetings means shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup I said... AA Meetings will mean shit if you don't have Faith in a Higher Power. So when I sought help the very first time, I cried and asked God to forgive me and help me. EVERYTHING ELSE FELL INTO PLACE. 

But don't forget, we will keep falling and stumbling and sometimes crashing but we MUST rise to the beat of your Higher Power's drum! We must not give in, except, ask for forgiveness, and reach for your Faith!

The punch line to all this. The message I'm trying to teach u is, No matter what U go through, at the end of it all, Your Faith is your saving Grace. Without it, You will be just a shell!

WELCOME TO MY INNER THOUGHTS OF TODAY.

ANY QUESTIONS??????????????????????

THE BEAT IN MY HEART

I laugh when I feel my thoughts are happy and when my spirit screams of Joy, I scream too.

I want to thank my Higher Power(God)for giving me Faith and Grace. I can't make it in this world of darkness without my Faith. 

My therapist once asked me "Do U have Hope today?" what was it that I replied? I just don't remember! She knows... and if for any reason she reads this today... she smiles because her memory reminds her of what it was that I said to that question.

But today I stand strong saying Yes... Hope Floats! oh it has because I have seen it and it does because I have felt it. 
My life is Hope and it Floats. I'm so blessed for the grace upon me that I have a need... a must... to pass it forward. I breath the need to want to share it loud and clear now.

I have learned finally after all the readings and writings I have done these past six years; I have learned to shower myself with God's blessed water. I'm putting grace, patients, and love in the water that I have cleaned and I add comfort and trust. Then I take it and I pour the water on my soul.

I then wait for the growth in me to take it's place and as it takes place, I become more and more beautiful each day. 

I am soo special and soo blessed. I am a soul of joy and  laughter, of understanding and commitment, of beauty and elegance. I am Me... a survivor of many obstacles.

All of this U read, I have giving to the universe and all of this U read, the universe has politely given back to me. And for this... I am thankful and grateful.

ASK, BELIEVE, RECEIVE

My Therapist(yes, my wonderful therapist)(hahaha :-) I actually teamed up with my doc so that I may learn to heal) told me about a year and a half ago to purchase this book. She was reading it and she thought it would help me understand my moment then and my moments NOW.

I READ THE BOOK. LOVED IT. READ IT AGAIN. LOVED IT. RECENTLY TOOK MYSELF TO THE MOVIES TO WATCH IT AND STARTED READING THE BOOK FOR THE THIRD TIME AGAIN.

Juice has the book now, she is reading it. this pic is courtesy of PRO-JUICE... thanks for the pic Juice!

I have some random special thoughts to share with u all. Don't stop reading... take this moment to check this out and maybe apply to your life. 

WHAT U THINK IS WHAT U GET!!!
3 things to remember: 
thoughts
become
famous
IMAGINE WHAT U REALLY WANT!!!

FAITH IN WHO U ARE WILL CHANGE WHAT U THINK!!!
3 things to work on:
ASK---> what u want
BELIEVE---> what u want
RECEIVE---> taste the fruits of your faith

Place your order into this Universe and rest it all in the hands of your faithful teacher. For most its God or a Higher Power. Allow it to be nurtured by Visualizing it as if it's now and not later. 

Feed your Universe positive power. and It will return to you positive outcomes. 

VISUALIZE TO MATERIALIZE. I CAN, I HAVE, I WILL AND IT'S NOW!!!  

  • WEALTH IS A MINDSET!
  • FEEL THE POSITIVE FAITH IN CHANGE!
  • IF U GO IN THE MIND U WILL GO IN THE BODY!
DON'T SECOND GUESS !

Control your feelings.
Remember: your thoughts cause your feelings; So if your thoughts are all Bad Vibes then your feelings will be overwhelmed and controlled by those Bad Vibes.

If you Celebrate good feelings then your thoughts will simply be controlled by great feelings. 

AGAIN:REMEMBER TO
CONTROL YOUR FEELINGS!

Share with me your thoughts... place your comments. I would love to know what u all think of this.

I SHUT DOWN TODAY? REFLECTION MODE *__*

I shut down today. I just couldn't get it together. I started to feel very emotional this morning. Maybe because it was 4:30am and I was up looking at my walls; Thinking about my Sat and Sunday Path. Sat. was great, full of laughs and shared moments with others. Sunday was dreadful moments with my family.
I came home Sunday night and was drained. Not wanting to deal with much. Took a shower and seat in the living room wondering. Consumed with tiredness around 3am I headed to sleep, ready to face my Monday.

Then 4:30 am came around and in my zone of trying to sleep again and fight with heavy thoughts, I was up. around 7:30 am I finally got sleepy again and closed my eyes but I woke up around 9:30am and started to cry. My heart weighed very heavy and my spirit couldn't grab a grip of what was going on.


Shattered with emotions and body pain, I knew I didn't feel safe to travel today. I made a decision that bettered me at the moment. I sent my therapist an email note saying I wasn't going to make it today. No sorry no explanation no nothing. Just that I wasn't making it to session today.

I needed to "be still my heart" and dealing with changes of transportation today and the back and forth was not going to be what I needed to do today.

The more I look at my surroundings, the more I'm learning about "who I am." The more I lean towards what my heart and spirit doesn't desire the more "I suffer." 

I might be somewhat complicated right now and emotional to the max. But I'm going to embrace it all and really put thought into it.

I don't want to always do things by the book. I'm not perfect. 

  • Maya Angelou said "I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it." 
Today is just one of those days for me.....have u ever been in reflection mode? Where u just analyze why certain people are in your life?

ALL WOMEN SHOULD READ THIS…..AND MEN

THIS IS A POWERFUL STORY…..
 
As a woman in this day and age, I am in a position to ask a man what he can do for me that I cant do for myself.
Clearly he thought that she was referring to money.
 
She quickly corrected his thought and stated,
 
“I am not referring to money. ” I need something more. I need a man who is striving for perfection in every aspect of life.”
 
He sat back in his chair, folded his arms, and asked her to explain.
 
She said “I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection mentally because I need conversation and mental stimulation. I don’t need a simple minded man.
 
I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection spiritually because I don’t need someone unequally yoked….believers mixed with non-believers is a recipe for disaster. And even if he is a believer, he needs to believe as I do.
 
I need a man who is striving for perfection financially because I don’t need a financial burden.
 
I am looking for someone who is sensitive enough to understand what I go through as a woman, and strong enough to keep me grounded when I do go through changes. I don’t need a man who is going to purposely bring me grief.
 
I am looking for someone who I can respect. In order to be submissive, I must respect him and he must respect me.
 
I cannot be submissive to a man who isn’t taking care of his business or who is “messy” in his personal affairs. I have no problem being submissive..but he has to be worthy.
 
God made woman to be a help mate for man. I can’t help a man if he can’t help himself.
If he can’t help himself then he definitely can’t help me.
 
When she finished her spiel, she looked at him.
 
He sat there with a puzzled look on his face.
 
He said, “You are asking for a lot”.
 
“She replied, “I’M WORTH  A LOT.”

I'M IN LOVE WITH MY GODSON. HE HAS BECOME MY HOPE THAT FLOAT!

It's soo special to watch my baby grow into his own person. I love U Kaleb. When I'm around him my hope floats!

He gives me reasons to want to speak and live and just smile again. this is him @ seven months just sitting up watching and remembering all that is around him. 







This moment I had to smile because watching him, looking into his eyes lights my soul. His hands and little feet, his button nose and puffy cheeks. The way he watches me and glares at me when he thinks I'm not watching. His baby scent and the innocence of his soul.

I will always keep u in my heart and in my soul until my last breath. I love U my Kaleb. Madrina luvs U!



U inspire me to keep dreaming and living and loving and sharing. U are my heart of Gold and U will forever be my # 1 GodSon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT I LIKE AND LOVE... inner person... ME

I love Converses. I started wearing them back when I was about 17(high school yrs). I became so in love of Converses that I owned just about every color there was in that time.
I even had a pair of Polo Converses and Benetton  Converses.

@ that time the kids in school and in the streets use to say "there go that girl with the cheap sneakers" "what's wrong, ur moms can't offered to buy u a pair of Nikes?"

I had Nikes and Addidas and all kinds but when I put a pair of Converse on... I was comfortable with ME.

I love them soo much that I went and got a pair of Red Converses for my Godson...hahahaha. He is seven months but his God mommy already got him his first pair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Converses I love to wear and I love to own.

I am also a realistic person who can put on a gown and a pair of stilettos shoes, put my conditioned hair up and wear some pearls. I can socialize with greatness and never look like a woman who loves Converses.

I like to be able to put on lipstick and blush, some eyeliner and mascara; To walk out of my home and into the eyes of others... as they gasp from the beauty before them, I flirt with my eyes and simply take in the night.

I'm soo much then just flesh. I'm soul, beauty, strength, passion, I'm wisdom, educated, sweetheart. I'm ME!

I'm the shoulder many need to lean on, I'm the eyes of the beholder, I'm that wind beneath many wings, and I'm Cheddy, who is willing to put her heart out there and make a difference in ones life.

And even though that night might be over, the dress will be taking off, the heels will be back in its box, the makeup will be removed, the shell will be filled with a t-shirt, jeans, and Converses... I WILL STILL BE CHEDDY

Maxwell - Fistful Of Tears

Vision Board

  • I watched a show this past weekend and a light bulb went on in my head. It was a moment where all stood still and only that part of the show continue. 
  • A Vision Board she(the young lady in the show)spoke of. Where your dreams and goals and ambitions are placed. Alive in 3D for you to view every time you come in and out of your room.
  • Amazed I was... "A vision board" 
  • I have two boards in my room, one has appointments and menus and crap and the other has pics of family and friends. Neither represent ME.
HOW MANY OF US HAVE THESE BOARDS IN THE HOME AND IT DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT US BUT IT TELLS ALL ABOUT OUR STRUGGLES; FAMILY AND FRIENDS?
  • I'm about to take control of one thing I have allowed many to control... "ME"
  • My ambitions, dreams and goals will continue to live inside of me. So now I will place them all on a vision board so that I may work on them and not work around them.
  • Each board will consist of realistic goals,dreams and ambitions.
THE CHANGE WILL BE FOR ME TO HELP MY INNER VOICE ! 

TELL ME IF U WILL CREATE, HAVE CREATED, OR WANT IDEAS TO CREATE A VISION BOARD.
