The Edmond Express

Not so long ago, my faith wavered and I stopped waiting for my "Joy" to come in the morning, because it seemed it never would. So I took my own "Joy" at night. Let me tell ya, it felt good and looked good on the outside, but on the inside, maaaaan. You never know who's praying for ya or who's looking up to ya. Stay the course and trust the process. Quit being so impatient as I was. 

We all go through the battles that our creator knows we can handle. Something small to you may be big to another and vice versa. So never diminish the value of your victory because someone has convinced you that their battle was far worse.  #storm #rain #sunshine #pain #black #guilt #innocense #love #hate #noweapon #victory

Understand the difference between being destroyed and being disrupted. Things of no value are destroyed, not disrupted. If it were to be destroyed, it would have been done. Disruptions keep people from coming together and uniting. Disruptions force varied agendas which lead to destruction internally (within individual groups), not externally. It's sad to see people so lost in disruption that the only way to deal with them is by destruction. 

When people testify about their trying experiences, that doesn't mean they've overcome the trials. It's just a part of the process to heal. Pray harder for them (if you pray), call them more, check on em, be in their business just a little bit more. Sometimes the acknowledgement of an issue, after opening your mind to begin to heal, is when things really get real.  We can't do everything on our own, trust me, I know. Be a real family, a real friend, etc. It's not prying when someone is falling and you're their to catch them BEFORE they hit the ground. It's sad to hear of the passing of a YOUNG  Michael K  Williams and some of the details surrounding it. Noone has the answers to everything and a magic potion to save everyone. I will tell you this, tears mean nothing if you didn't sweat to save someone that you said you cared about and loved. This sh*t is getting tiring. As always, if ya need to talk or just need someone to sit in silence with ya, I got ya

Those of you that are single today, maybe you should give of yourself more freely and quit holding your goodies hostage. The right person is never coming, so enjoy a few minutes of your lives with the wrong person. We see you at the restaurant and bar all by yourself, painfully eating and drinking yourselves into a stupor. Break the mold and give away a little cookie on Valentine's Day.

Charlotte's Web: I never saw the connection between this movie/book and how destiny works. Charlotte was as perfect of a being as possible, Wilbur was the young naïve and vulnerable being in need, and out of all of the animals, they utilized Templeton, the rat, who had the worst characteristics of all to bring the word. And that word is what kept Wilbur alive. That word kept the story going, kept the family growing, kept everyone, that word kept...... WOOOOO. Let me say that again....they used Templeton, the rat, the worst of everything good, to bring the word...... ‪#‎ yallbetterstopmenow‬   ‪#‎ wonthedoit‬
