Strawberries

Hello beautiful souls đź’–

I was thinking about a meme that I saw on Instagram some time ago. It said something to the degree of ‘you could be the juiciest, sweetest strawberry in the world. There’s still gonna be some people that don’t like strawberries. And it hit me.

Again.

This is information that I already knew, but at the time I needed to be reminded. Sometimes self depreciating thoughts and ego creep in and try to cause me to revert back to my old ways.

I’m still relatively new to this stage in my life where I speak and think freely without fear of rejection or repercussions. The stage where the best isn’t yet to come; the best is here and now because I create it with my mind. I am here. In this beautiful stage where I dare to be my happiest and most authentic. I dare to be who I am- unabashed.

And this stage has become a permanent place.

I am grateful to have reached this place in my life where I finally realize that I can be myself. I live in a liberating state where I don’t feel the need to explain how and why strawberries are awesome. I find joy and solace in who I am. I love my uniqueness. And the dislike or disapproval of others does not change that.

I am a sweet, juicy strawberry. Not everyone likes strawberries.

And that’s okay.

To all my other strawberries out there; stay sweet!

Until next time beautiful souls đź’–

I am/Gratitude Merger

Hi!

Some time ago, a thought occurred to me while doing my affirmations. I don’t know if this is something that you’re already doing: if so, great! But I thought that I’d go ahead and share it because I feel that it’s a more powerful way to affirm and manifest your desires.

I learned while reading; that “I am” affirmations are more powerful as it is also a direct reference to God and the God inside of us.

And then I read The Science of Getting Rich and learned that gratitude brings us into closer relationship with Source (God).

So I thought to myself…🤔

What if I paired the two together? Wouldn’t that make a powerful affirmation even more powerful?!

Yes. Yes; I believe it would! For example: instead of saying “I am wealthy.” Try saying; “I am grateful to be wealthy.” Not only are you affirming wealth, but you’re expressing gratitude as well.

So, I began to blend affirmations with gratitude and sincerely; they resonated with me on a different level!

So much so, that I believe it caused me to manifest a nicer car for myself. I went from “I have a better car.” To “I am grateful for a better car.” (I wasn’t very specific; I just wanted a better car than the one I had.) And guess what?!

I went from this car (with over 250,000 miles on it. It used to be a cab.)

My girl Marie

To this car! (With under 100,000 miles on it.)

My baby Mariah

And while I’m grateful for Marie and always will be; I’m really grateful to have Mariah.

I didn’t tell him that I wanted a new car. I just gratefully affirmed and allowed it to come to me. And he surprised me with this lovely vehicle last night.

So I decided to share with you. I hope that your greatest of dreams come true. Until next time…

Much love. Be blessed. And be free. đź’ś
