"When we GROW up"!?!



It seems like, as soon as we hit puberty  or maybe before, we "know the world". I mean no one can tell us anything, not even whats good for us. Then when we hit a certain age we realize that we didn't know much of anything and we were lucky we made as far as we did .  When we are growing into ourselves it is very difficult to tell if we are doing the right things because we don't yet know who we are. 
It took me as long as my third child to really grow up(10 yrs)(0_0). As sad as it sounds its pretty REAL. These days its hard to judge because you really never know what a person has gone through or what has happened to them that caused them to stagnate. A person has to go through things to develop. The things that we endure end up molding us into who we are. Today , I am a down to earth , moderately social young lady. However, I enjoy staying to myself because I'm less exhausted mentally. LOL.... strange but hey I have always been WEIRD. In any case, I still have a long way to go but I have come very far with growing into who I am and walking "high" in my own shoes. Its funny, when you meet that person who has not fully matured yet and you may be having a conversation of some sort when you realize that they are only trying to sound like they know what they are talking about. ....Yea, I always say to myself "be humble" Since I know what it is to look silly because of my BIG mouth. With saying all of that, I just realized that I have truly experienced what it is to be a mother after having three children.I was too young to know what being a "mother" meant when my first was born. At the time, I really had to much to work on. Learning how to be a mother and needing to be one is difficult when your still a child yourself(19). But like I said I am who I am now because of these trial and error. Trust me I am grateful. I have an abundance of things to be grateful for. I'm employed, earning a degree.....living and loving my life. Now its not easy but at least I have the opportunity.
Right?

....till Next time

Tough Love

Sometimes we think our children need to be coddled, nursed, or even protected when they don't . As parents we must understand that parenting is not all about keeping our children happy. So when we don't face issues head on that we have with our children, those same issues can grow into life challenges for them. Tough love...not abuse...lol, is very important and is a needed discipline that helps to correct behavior issues and allow our children to become independent people. So sugar coating and making excuses for why our children do things that they should not, facilitates the problem and helps it to persist longer. We don't have to do everything for our children!!! Let them develop their own strengths and weaknesses, not ones that we create by doing everything for them. Stop that cycle now, before its too late! And you have reached the level of stress that brings you to your knees.. !! Seriously, love lots p...

5 ways to getting the most out of life!

First, let me start by saying that I am not a licensed therapist or a doctor with a mental medical degree. I am an expert on my life and I would like to share with you all how I was able to  get an understanding of self fulfillment and a life of happiness! 1.   Realize that you can control your own happiness! If all that existed in the worl d as we know it should perish, what would save you, what would keep you thriving?! 2.  Take advice as friendly suggestions, not an outline on how to live your life! When we have close friends and family we look to them for advice about many things. But there is nothing worse then screwing up all the time, because we cannot make our OWN decisions! 3.  Choose your battles wisely! I have never seen a person who picked and picked and kicked and screamed, get anything but a pacifier and diaper change!  A person who realizes their peac...

Letting Go

 Ending a relationship that is not good for you sounds easy but can be difficult. There is one real thing that you have to do to finally walk away. Make up your mind PERIOD! Seriously sit down and in your mind ask your self these questions: Can I be my best self with this person? Is this relationship beneficial to them more than me? Are you happy to see yourself with this person in the future with out a doubt? When you come to terms with those things and just basically make a conscious decision to do what you need to do for you, everything else falls into place. A lot of people sabotage themselves by staying years in a bad relationship because they don't want to look like "the bad guy" or they don't want to be "uncomfortable". Maybe other aspects of the relationship work for them but they generally are miserable. Perhaps the spouse's family is really nice but the days at home are dreadful.  When you drag this process on it results in a...
