Follow Your Heart

I'm sure you've all heard the saying ,"follow your heart" from time to time again. Its one that I have recently taken to heart myself. Being the strictly realistic person I am, I used to change it around and say to follow your heart but listen to your mind. Basically if what my heart wanted wasn't realistic then I'd shut it down. Recently I've learned a very important lesson, which is to fully follow your heart. Your mind will change and it will grow with your life, but your heart, that stays constant. No matter how complicated or unrealistic it might be, follow the path of your heart. I know I learned the hard way on that. You see when you neglect your heart, then its like theirs this hole that nothing seems to fill, nothing except what your heart want in the first place. The versatility of this lesson honestly amazes me, it could be a relationship, a job, or any goal you have. Follow your heart and trust yourself, push and work hard towards whatever it may be in order to accomplish it, and don't give up, by following through you will have no regrets but instead only accomplishment and joy in the end. No matter what your goal or circumstance may be for this lesson and time of evaluation, let me say one more thing. Whatever you do, do it whole heatedly because if you don't feel something for what your doing or if its a relationship, then who your with, then theirs no point. Strive for what or who fills your heart and set your heart free on this journey of life, no longer caged by realistic properties or complications. See then how your outlook on life may change.

Love Yo Selfie

Often times when you think about "love", where does your mind go? For some of us it might be the love shared between a couple or a family, friends etc. Rarely however do we think about ourselves. The world can feel like its spinning a million miles an hour, I know mine is. We spend so much time making sure everyone else is okay that we often times neglect ourselves. We love everyone and try to make sure they know that, but what about making sure we know we love ourselves? That were happy with who we are? You may be thinking I've gone crazy right now trying to tell you to love yourself lol. I'm serious though, we are our biggest critics and I feel like we spend so much time critiquing ourselves that we forget to be happy with who we are. We tend to excuse mistakes of ones we care  about, as we should but then we dwell on our own mistakes and let them tear us apart. We need to show ourselves the compassion we show others and we need to be comfortable with who we are as ...

Stillness

As someone accustomed to being constantly on the go and busy, I've always found the concept of stillness almost nerving.  When someone tells you to spend time being still in God's presence, I don't know about you but I always pictured literally sitting still with nothing to occupy myself. To say the least due to this perception stillness is something I'd avoid. As I've began seeking God as a new mother, he's hit me with a new perspective that I'd like to share in the hopes it can aid and encourage others to embrace being still.  Stillness is different for everyone, perhaps for some it is sitting and doing absolutely nothing, meditating on God's word, for others maybe it's prayer or being alone and singing worship music. Being still with God is eliminating distractions of this world and focusing fully on him. What helps your mind go quiet? What helps you tune into God's voice and block out the world? Personally I've found its worship music and...

Defining Life Through Choices

 Life is a crazy thing, what's crazier is how we each define the course we take through it. Often times we categorize our lives by the bigger more obvious choices, for instance taking a job, going back to school, getting married, having children etc. If we created a road map of our lives on paper it would likely consist of big landmark choices. Is it truly those big choices however that sum up our lives? Is it really those land mark sized choices that got us where we are today and propel us further into the future? I'd like to argue that they are not. Every day, every moment we are faced with choices, big and small choices. Perhaps the most seemingly miniscule choices are in fact the most monumental. When you start your day, what thoughts do you allow into your head? How do you nurture your mind, body and soul when you rise and when you begin to settle down for the day? How do you choose to interact with those around you, how do you speak to them? How do you speak to yourself, ...
