Transparency

I used to believe people who only shared their successes instead of their failures were frauds. I now realize that is not necessarily the case. There’s a time, place and audience for everything. Knowing when, where and what to share is vital, even when it comes to sharing successes. Yes, I am finally realizing that good news isn’t always acceptable for some.

I Love You

This is just a friendly reminder that life is truly short and those we love are only here for a brief moment. Spend time with those you can. Acknowledge the ones you cannot physically spend time with. You do not have to have a full blown conversation with them. A simple “Hello! Have a great day.” “Thinking of you.”, “I miss you.”, “I love you.” or any combination of them all will suffice. Listen, just drop a heart or a smiley face. Anything! People just want to know that someone is thinking of them and that they are loved. You don’t have to do it daily. However, every once in a while, let those you love know you love them before you can no longer let them know.

I love you! I may not know you, but I do. Be Blessed!♥️

Willing to Eat Alone

As soon as I got to my dad’s and hugged everyone, my sister waited until we were alone to ask if I had found a “boo” yet. Laughing as I think about it because that’s like the first thing everyone asks me. I’m so happy my dad has finally stopped asking. His thought now is that I’m too mean. Now, why would he think that? Laughing. I just don’t have time for nonsense.

With all that being said, I know I have written about being ready to love again, and at times I feel it more than others. However, I am actually good with where I am. No longer in a hurry, especially since it didn’t happen before 50. Yeah… 50 was my deadline for finding love. Now I’m like it happens when it happens.

Back to my conversation with my sister. So she tells me that my ex is in a relationship (she saw it on Facebook). Even though I don’t follow him on Facebook, I know he’s been in a relationship for a few years now. Didn’t think it was worth discussing. That’s his business. Anyhoo, she goes on to say that I can’t let him outdo me. That I need to find me a boo too. Hilarious! Baby, this is not a competition. Shaking my head laughing.

Just saw this quote a few minutes ago. Basically, it sums up how I feel about being in a relationship.

More than willing to eat alone until then.

Listen, I don’t have to settle for any old table just to keep up with someone else, nor do I have to rush a thing. Just because I am ready to love again doesn’t mean I am desperate. I’m kind of glad God didn’t do things on my timetable because I probably would have settled. He really does know what’s best.

Grateful♥️
