I Have the Guts To Be Who I Really Am, Do You?

Every Thursday I randomly select a post to re-blog that deals with real issues. This week we join Martha as she speaks about who she really is. Please show her some love by visiting her blog, read and comment. Thank you as usual for your support.

Seriously, do you?  Do you really?  You don’t have to answer out loud.  Most people won’t.  I know.  I’ve spent most of my life being looked at strangely.  Why?  Because I don’t cavein.  Most people who have put me down made caving in and doing what others expected into an art form.

 I don’t much care if you think I’m ugly.  I don’t think I am.  I sure do not care if you think working hard is for fools.  Shoot, if that’s the definition of a fool, I’m proud of it.  As a kid, there were plenty of people my age running away from home.  I never even considered it.  I loved my family.  I had friends who were fun to be with.  Know what?  They loved my family as well.  They loved to be at my house.

Acceptance

Love—the ability
to accept another

A ccept differences

C herish all our Creator has made
Each one needs and deserves our love

Now And When

Real Talk-Ungrateful People

Chatterboxes, hypocrites, ungrateful people, conniving people, backbiters, deceivers, ( and the list goes on) are some very dangerous people to be around and they should be avoided. The ungrateful ones however, are the most dangerous ones from the experiences I have had with them.

What I love most about them is the pretentious amnesic syndrome that they love to display. Oh boy, these people are such users and will do anything to get what they want.

They will come to you with tear-stained faces, brokenhearted and helpless, and you put out your best and even go out of your way just so you can assist them but at the end of the day…they forget! They forget and pretend as though they did it all on their own. And their forgetfulness hurts; especially if it’s being handed down by a family member or a very close friend.

6 Stop Signs You Should Obey

#1.  STOP worrying about tomorrow

The truth is, you have no control over tomorrow. You cannot predict what will happen, so live in the moment that you have.

#2.  STOP blaming external forces for what is happening around you

The truth is, you are the creator of your own miseries, and you have the power to solve them. Nothing external can control your thoughts.

#3.  STOP saying you can’t

The truth is, you can! You can do anything you set your mind to do.
