stubborn....always- yet it worked out for the best

 





Life right now is moving into a lifestyle that

will bring out the best me that I can be.

For years I harboured the idea that everyone in the world

knew what they were about but I struggled.

I struggled because I listened to people who actually

had no clue be very confident in their choices.

They were hardly *right* about everything.

They just had more gall and I was taught to be humble .

Many many years later I decided to stop looking at others,

stop judging myself after their lives and words.

And that is where most of my growth has occurred .

I now install wise voices into my life wherever I can

to remind me of truth... my truth that can get drowned out by

the incessant squalkings of the world.

On this lovely sunny Sunday morning I will post some that

resonate with me right now.

Maybe they will resonate with you as well.












I am starting to realise that those who get upset over delicate

subjects are either dishonest with themselves or unable to have healthy relationships.

The world is filled with them but they are not the majority.

Most people can have hard conversations and still be civil & have class without

demonising others. It is s true sign of emotional maturity.

I am grateful that most people in my life who can not have these hard convos have

ushered themselves out all on their own.

I know.... the people who run our politics, media and large companies

feel like they can divide and dictate how

we comport ourselves with one another, but a person truly rooted in

truth, kindness and grace has no problems rejecting that narrative.


Talk about the hard things people....

Like how in Nova Scotia they are fining folks 28k for walking in their own woods.



Do I have opinions on that?

Yep.

Do I feel like there is more to this story than meets they eye?

Yep.

But you will not find many people who will care, because it is a mindset

that people are in to not only push back on draconian measures but

to gang up on others who use common sense to reason out the silliness.

Later on.... you will see that things like this subject get proven wrong

to have been implemented yet no apology, no accountability.


I am tired of sitting back and having others think that I am 

the same. I am not. I am stubborn. I am likely to not do something out of spite

and that I blame on my being a hard & fast Taurus.

I do not, nor did I ever go along with the crowd.

I just shut up and did whatever I wanted.

In the end I have to listen to my own self before my own God

justify why I did what I knew was stupid.

That I caved instead of follow my heart, mind or beliefs.




In my mind, I do not care if you drill white privilege down my throat or any

other catch words that people use to try and demean others because they 

follow the crowds. 

I could care less what you $$ situation is or how you worked your way

through life to get where you are.

It is how you treat others that matters.

Not your skin color or where you grew up.

Not your homer your job.

Not your religion or your good works.

I am always happy to see people live out their dreams.

For some people to have to interject their hatred just

tells me that they are emotionally lazy & stuck.

They are just bullies who want to force you into a box or a label that

makes them feel less uncomfortable about their own life choices.

It is about their mental health.

I am not responsible for them.

I do me.

I am trying to be the best me that I can be today.

With Gods' help I will try and make my tiny part of the world

a better place.

I am not here to fit in.

Never was.

In the end, this is my blog.

I can say whatever I wish.

This is my life.

I shall do whatever I wish.

I'd love to hear how you all feel too .

You matter to me.

Would you like this space to be one that is a healthy place to land

as far as delving into the hard in a not so hard way?


I do believe it is time.

I have been waiting for this for a while now.

Talk about the hard things.

Push back.

Do not let an unhealthy narrative be the only voice out there.




Also......

I just pre-ordered this sweater.



I can not think of anything that would say Fall than this adorable thing.

If you'd like to know where I pre-ordered it, just message me.



Thank God for the foundation of faith I inherited from my mother

and for the lessons I have endured to get me here.

I am so blessed.


Have a lovely Sunday friends.

xoxo

Raven.
