Let it Go and Focus!!

I have been caught up between two places; the bitter past and a glorious future! So I am here to encourage people who might be in the same place I was in.

There are some things in the past that might have stopped you from being able to do what you always wanted to do or be. It can be failure, lack, momentary situations that hindered you. But many of us have dreams that keep us going, the idea of being able to achieve those things, get to those places keeps you going in life. For some people its their kids, parents or situations they want to turn around because they want to make changes in the lives of those people, turn situations around and better things for their kids. What ever that you had that you wanted to do and couldn't for whatever reason, its not dead, if its dead and you know its important to you, resurrect it. Its time to let go of the past failure and look into the future with possibilities.

This is for a mother who had to sacrifice her dream to take care of her kids that she had earlier than expected. Now that you did it and they are grown, let it go, focus on that dream. Its for that child who was brought up in a poor family and longed to be successful, poverty is not a body part you can't get rid off, let it go, dare to be successful and different from your family. For that boy who was told by his step father that he can never be anything in life and held on to those words, let it go; you can be anything you want be, just focus and get it going.

Jeremiah 29:11  For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. God wants us to trust in Him, this is like a green light at the traffic light, its a go sign. Trust the Lord, His intentions for you are God and not evil. We do go through situations but they are never meant to hold us hostage. They are there to strengthen us and ready us for the future. Many times we take our situations as the last bus stop. No, you had and maybe still have that dream for a reason, explore it, trust in the Lord, commit your ways to Him and see what comes off it. Failure defines nobody just those who want it to define them. Break down that strong hold, let it go and get focused on what matters to you. Your dreams are waiting for you;  a more determined you, the you  who knows how it is to be held back from doing what they love, who has for so long been dictated to by fear, failure, negativity and past experiences. Break dawn with a new mindset, the past is in the past, put it behind you and focus on what you want, what you desire... Romans 8:31 what, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? Its over, move on!

We fall down and we get up.

Listen to this song and let go. We fall down but the most important thing is getting up. Remember Its in the past,

Let it go, it shouldn't hold you back any more!

Stay blessed!

Pretty lil' Updates

Hello guys. It is just me or this year is on some Fast and Furious Tip? 2014 has just started and we are already midway done with the year. Where has the time gone? I have a tendency of measuring time with progress, things that I have done and those I intend to do. Looking back at the past 5 months, and checking progress, the year has been good so far.

 One of the things I have in my ‘To try out’ list for 2014 is to grow my hair naturally. I have had it natural from August 2013 and I don’t intend to relax it. I have been feeling a little frustrated with the growth progress though, there isn't much length growth, at-least I don’t see much of it. Natural hair comes with challenges such as hairstyling, manageability and generally keeping it healthy, I am learning. Here are a few shots of the hair. I will get there, I just have to keep pressing on.

I had just removed the weave I had on from the last post. The hair is just combed out.

Getting ready to wash my hair, at the hair salon.

Kinky, nappy afro.. I am learning patience through this hair journey, an important fruit of the spirit. 

22-23 But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.

Galatians 5:22-23

and a little baked delights... Cinnamon rolls!

Stay Blessed.

A winter Look

Hey guys, howdy? So its winter in Botswana right now and the temperatures are dropping every day. I find myself longing for those summer outfits of cute little dresses. But its so cold and I was looking for ways to wear my dresses without torturing myself, so I decided to wear the dresses with tights. Here is one look.

I wore these short lace up boots with the outfit. 

The jacket is a nice touch to the outfit as well, its warm but not bulky or heavy. 

Do you separate your winter wardrobe from the summer one or do you combine the them? How?

Stay Blessed.
