The SW30: Day 9 ~ Your Favorite Weird/Funny Single Behavior

It took me a minute to think of an answer to this but I believe I have it! Haha- this is a mess!

Let me just say that I am so grateful for the progress that has been made in the world of technology. We're able to pause and rewind television shows. . . Record them and watch other shows at the same time because of amazing things such as the DVR.

I like to record a variety of programs- a couple of reality shows, some dramatic series, music specials and so on. However, the one category that blesses my soul HAS to be animated movies! LOL!

I don't know what it is. Maybe they remind me of being in daycare. We would watch movies like Cinderella and The Aristocats right before we all took a nap. Whatever the reason is. . . I like to call these movies my personal lullaby.

If I'm having trouble sleeping or just want to go to sleep faster, all I have to do is put on a movie (usually Despicable Me or the Princess and the Frog) and I'm guaranteed to be knocked out within 10 minutes- unless I really make an effort to stay awake and pay attention!

(Almost There from The Princess and the Frog)

What's truly sad is that there have been multiple times that I've started a movie and all I remember seeing was the title! (Who does that?!)

The other thing that I love to do is listen to Afro-Cuban music. . . especially when I'm cleaning or working on a project. I think I actually/ secretly wished that I had some Latin roots ;-).

Going back to the blessing that is technology. . . Sirius XM Radio has a wonderful station that I love! LUNA is what I listen to when I need a change in pace or an extra bit of motivation. I'm listening to the song below as I type this:

Guachi Guara (Soul Sauce) by Jam Miami All Stars

Needless to say. . . I guess I do have a couple weird/funny behaviors but they are part of what makes me- ME. I think they keep me light-hearted :-p.

Do you have any weird or funny traits??? Wanna share? Leave a comment below!

The Unexpected Temptation

I know. . . It's been time for me to write something new.🙈 However, coming across this video from Jackie Hill Perry to prompted me to actually get this post out. One line pierced my heart. "When you have a gift that involves words, one of the ways the enemy will tempt you is to be silent." Wow! I hone stly think silence is one of the last things that comes to mind when people think of temptation. According to Oxford Languages, the definition of temptation is the desire to do something, especially something wrong or unwise. I can hear someone asking, "How can silence be wrong or unwise?" Oh. . . Hold on for just a minute and it will come together. There are times when our obedience [to speak] may be the key to someone else's blessing . Your words and actions could essentially provide healing for your brother or sister in Christ! In the book of Revelation, we read, "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.....

Let It Go {One Year of Freedom}

"...let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us." - Hebrews 12:1 (KJV) **If you don't get anything else out of this post, I pray that you realize. . . you really can do all things through Christ - especially when your desire is to please Him! He will strengthen you to walk uprightly before Him.** ---------- Believe me when I say. . . Knowing what you need to do is very different from actually doing it. Sometimes it is difficult to do what we know is right. That's where I found myself, in November and December of 2022. Let me take you back. . . As a single woman (just in case anybody needs clarification 😉), I was opening myself up to meeting guys and getting to know them when I crossed paths with Royal . Initially, we seemed to have quite a few things in common: faith, a desire to serve our communities, a strong love for our families, and. . . a way with words. (*insert face...

7 Revelations for 37

I really was trying to get through this birthday- well- get away with not writing anything specific, but all of a sudden, ideas started flowing. So. . . Here are 7 Revelations that I am trying to be mindful of as I go through Year 37. 1. Proverbs 4:23 is a command (not a suggestion). It reads, "Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life (AMP)." Other translations say to keep or guard your heart. . . In other words, be selective and protect it. Watch what you allow to enter your heart. Seeds may be planted by various circumstances, people with whom you interact, etc. but you do not need to allow everything to take root. Things like bitterness, frustration, and envy will try to find a home within you. Beware: Whatever you allow to take root in your heart will be reflected through your actions! 2. This goes right with Point #1. Be willing to have uncomfortable conversations. Clearing the air can also help to keep your heart [and spirit] c...
