I like the challenge


Why is it that we like the bad boys? You know what I'm talking about. That guy that seems to ignore you yet give you just enough attention to hook you. He is condescending and sarcastic. He tells you that he is not looking for anything serious but you find yourself wanting him. In your mind this is a challenge. You want to be the one to have him. Maybe he will change for you. Yet you find yourself answering that text he sent in the middle of the night after he had a few drinks.  Or answering that random call after a few weeks of being MIA. He knows you'll still let him come over.  You are convincing yourself that he actually cares. You think he really wants you. You think he really wants to spend time with you. After all, he took the time to reach out. You ignore the fact that it's 3am...that he only reaches out on some weekends. So what if the last time you spoke was a week ago. 

Listen here! Open your eyes! NEWS FLASH.... You were just an after thought. An easy target. An easy catch! Don't you believe that you deserve to be the first thought in his mind? To get a hello everyday? To be invited out to dinner?  To be treated with respect? 

That challenge is not worth your valuable time. Your body is a temple. You are worth more than rubies.  A man that really wants you will show you by being interested in you and your mind at all times. Drop that challenge and pick up your self worth! Hold your head up high and be patient. God will provide!

Get up and dust yourself off

I often wonder why a person has the need to judge and criticize another person over and over again. It angers me at times. Part of me wants to retaliate by hurting that person's feelings. Letting them feel worse than how they've made me feel. But I must find peace in knowing that God will handle my enemies. He has favor over me. He will set a table for me in front of them. I must hold on to faith and use my anger wisely. I will get up, dust myself off and move on.

Four years later

Today I started thinking that I really need to figure out what my purpose in life is.  A voice whispered in my thoughts to help motivate women in bad relationships, those having a hard time dating and women who find it hard to love themselves first. I thought I could start a blog. To my surprise, I found this blog that I had started over four years ago. Reading my profile and my first two blogs back in 2010 brought me to tears. It was like if I was reading another person's hurt, yet it was my own.  I just cant believe I went through all those years of pain.  And here I am four years later with the love of my life.... remarried and happy! I cant wait to help my sisters out there find what I found.
