Dreams
Just woke up from my second or third weird dream. The first dream felt so real that I woke up as if it was happening at that very moment. I could see it so clearly. I could also feel it. I wrote as much as I could remember in my journal. The dream was very straightforward, nothing to interpret. However, I kept hearing, “You woke up too soon.” Hmmm
Now that I have written about it, perhaps the dream shouldn’t be my concern but the message I received afterward. I woke up too soon. Was there more to see? Guess I will never know because I did not stick around to find out.
The dreams that followed were not related or quite as interesting. But that first one had me a bit shook. Most of my dreams are just dreams; however, some are pretty real. Since childhood, I have witnessed some version of my dreams happen. I even dreamed my mom would suffer from paraplegia only months before it happened (it’s journaled). So, I don’t take my dreams lightly, especially not the ones that wake me up like this one did. The crazy part about this one and the message I received after I woke up is I actually forced myself to wake up. I did not want to see any more.
Well, this is how my week has started. I pray your week is pretty normal. I am going to tuck that dream away and focus on something else, which goes so well with this Facebook memory from a year ago. Was going to save it for my second blog but I’ll find something else to share.

Ask! It’s That Simple
That was the post I shared last year—November 19, 2022. The segment below is what I also shared that day when I reposted a picture of me meeting Senator Cory Booker at a political event on November 19, 2018. Not going to share that picture (laughing) because I was cheesing so hard that gum was hanging out the corner of my mouth. Y’all I was so happy about that meeting and here’s why.
Facebook Memory: November 19, 2022
I’m going to share this memory EVERY time it pops up because it’s a reminder for me that God does listen and answer. Sometimes I find myself focusing so much on the big things I’ve asked for and received that I forget about the smaller things in between.
About a week or so before this picture was taken, I casually mentioned to a friend that I wanted to meet Cory Booker. The next thing I knew, he was making a quick stop in Hattiesburg. I needed this memory, this reminder that no request is too big for God to fill.
Y’all, God hears us and He does answer. We don’t have to beg for what we want, just ask and leave it alone. We don’t have to find ways to help Him make it happen. Just ask and leave it alone. If it’s meant to be, it’ll happen.
That meeting was pretty cool because it showed me the power of a simple ask, as well as the love, kindness and grace of God. Y’all, I just love the way He loves me. His gifts are always tailored just for me. They make me feel like a child opening gifts on Christmas morning—I be so giddy.
A year earlier, I wanted to meet someone else and a few weeks later I met them—in Hattiesburg. I didn’t even have to leave town. God sent both of them to me. How wonderful was that!
Anyhoo…I am so grateful for that memory and reminder that nothing is impossible. All I have to do is ask. That’s love.
Okay…now I’m crying.
My prayer for you is that you experience God’s love as well. Those were examples of pretty big gifts; however, every day I receive gifts. Every single day. And I attempt to acknowledge all of them such as being alive, safe, loved, and healthy. My kids are safe and healthy. These are amazing gifts! I am truly blessed.
That’s all I have right now. Wishing you a wonderful Sunday and blessed week.
Love you!♥️

Be Inspired
This week I have been seeing and hearing “Be inspired!” everywhere. Little did I know I would see it again this morning. Life is so very interesting. Can’t help but love it. Smiling
Facebook Memory: November 18, 2022
Today’s a new day! Be inspired to do, create, build or try something new. I love y’all!♥️
Last year, when I shared this message on my other Facebook page, I added the following:
Be inspired to do that thing you’ve been wanting to do but been too afraid to do.😘
Hmmm…
Well, that’s it. That’s the message. I pray you have an amazing weekend!
Love you!♥️

Something Wonderful is About to Happen
Shared this message several years in a row and decided to switch it up this morning. Well, since I cannot think of anything else to share for my second post I may as well stick with the routine.

Expect the unexpected! Something wonderful is about to happen.♥️
