Simply put

I have been asked to clarify one of the comments I made in my post on January 25th. I wrote being fearless is.."I simply love you".

The response was, "people say I love you all the time". And that is true. However, in my innocence I use to think that love had no outside challenges. Who would challenge love right. Where they doing that at? But I realized that people will go to great lengths to keep love apart and that's only one aspect. How about what it takes to be great and strong all while still being able to be intimate and soft. I've learned it's not always easy, neither is it encouraged. And so it takes being fearless to love when everything is against having love and being in love.

Look at this video. Being good at what you do and the ability to be vulnerable when you are taught to be strong.

With this example you see great pain, risk and loss that comes with being vulnerable. However, many who have felt like this women have never verbalized it. No, they carry it with them for years resting on their spirits, the wound re-opened every time something like it happens again. Or better yet, they just don’t go there they are strong. So to me being fearlessly individual is just as much about being strong and powerful as it is expressing great love, hurt, pain even when at times cultural confinements don’t want to liberate you to do so; people make it hard. You are damned if you do or if you don’t, but you know that to be vulnerable and intimate is apart of being fearless. Please know that I mean this in the most respectable way. But being able to make a difference in the world, dream, create, and be happy, pray to my God, go home run my husbands bath, feed him , and cry when he’s not there. That’s the fearless in love I’m talking about.

The Day After Christmas

Christmas day was great. I didn't go to bed until the wee hours again and needless to say I was wrapping gifts at 4:30 that morning as the children rose ready to open their presents. It probably would be useless to most to continue wrapping when everyone would open them minutes after but I did so anyway. I like to do it and wrapping gifts is as much a part of the Christmas festivities as decorating the tree. And just as Christmas day was fun so was the day after.  We followed up Christmas dinner with a fish fry and a game of spades. It was great and me and my partner won the game. We had  great time laughing and kidding with each other. We listened to music and sang along. Nothing like those oldies but goodies. We all took part from the oldest to the youngest adding our voices to the music. To outsiders it may have seemed like no big deal but to me it was as much a part of loving each others as was the gift giving. I sat back and thought that's what ...

After Christmas Practical Suggestion

I'm really not an expert in this area but, after going over a few records for a family member, I quickly understand the importance of not just tossing your bank statements around and not viewing them. I saw where they were paying for subscriptions almost three times the normal amount. Having said that, many of you will get those bank statements detailing all the great gifts you have given. But you may want to double check them.  Make sure you haven't been billed twice for the same thing or billed for something you didn't purchase at all. With theft at an all time high, it's not unlikely for this to happen. Remember to keep tabs of your records. Lately I've been taking note of information regarding fraud and identity theft and it seems that the holiday season is a peak time for these unfortunate situations to take place. And familiarizing yourself with what steps to take (hopefully this won't happen) can ease the burden of a  di...

Thoughts for today

Whatever you endeavor to do, let it be yours. Never let anyone try and project their thoughts as yours, their feelings, or their motives. No, let every man reason for himself seeking God to find their perspective. We should never try to attach our needs to someone else except we commune together. And never ask a man, especially a woman to carry the burden for anothers errors lest they be in agreement. This is why I find the precision of these words to be exact. Actions not words are the true criterion for the attachment of friends~George Washington
