Art has definitely been a therapy for me. Whenever no one is there, or no one understands, throw it down in your art. Get it out. Sing, dance, paint, write. Do whatever you gotta do to let it out. Every frustration, tear, and smile. Create work that will uplift you. Create work that only you can understand , something that only you can enjoy in the specialist of ways; As a creator.
I love you, and I can’t wait to see what you create
“This, too, I carefully explored: Even though the actions of godly and wise people are in God’s hands, no one knows whether God will show them favor. The same destiny ultimately awaits everyone, whether righteous or wicked, good or bad, ceremonially clean or unclean, religious or irreligious. Good people receive the same treatment as sinners, and people who make promises to God are treated like people who don’t. It seems so wrong that everyone under the sun suffers the same fate. Already twisted by evil, people choose their own mad course, for they have no hope. There is nothing ahead but death anyway. There is hope only for the living. As they say, “It’s better to be a live dog than a dead lion!” The living at least know they will die, but the dead know nothing. They have no further reward, nor are they remembered. Whatever they did in their lifetime—loving, hating, envying—is all long gone. They no longer play a part in anything here on earth. So go ahead. Eat your food with joy, and drink your wine with a happy heart, for God approves of this! Wear fine clothes, with a splash of cologne! Live happily with the woman you love through all the meaningless days of life that God has given you under the sun. The wife God gives you is your reward for all your earthly toil. Whatever you do, do well. For when you go to the grave, there will be no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom. I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner doesn’t always win the race, and the strongest warrior doesn’t always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy. And those who are educated don’t always lead successful lives. It is all decided by chance, by being in the right place at the right time. People can never predict when hard times might come. Like fish in a net or birds in a trap, people are caught by sudden tragedy.”
Ecclesiastes 9 NLT
If this is what God calls today
I can’t wait to see tomorrow
Some of us stay with people because we don’t want to abandon them at a low point.
Some of us stay with people because we were with them through such low points and now that their doing better we feel like we earned the prize of their growth that came at the end.
Sometimes when we are the depressed and someone sticks with us we feel like we can’t leave because that person was with you when you were your worst.
But we have to evaluate.
If your growth means you have outgrown the relationship, then it’s okay to leave.
If that person was with you at your lowest but you don’t think they can help you reach your highest then it’s okay to bounce.
Part of growth is being able to recognize what you need, and then taking steps to obtain it.
If a person has reached the end of a relationship , then it’s okay to move on.
Don’t worry about being polite.
Worry about what’s best.
If the new you isn’t 100% here then it’s because the new you should be somewhere else.
If you are trying to think of ways to make something work then your ignoring the ease that will come with the right thing in your near future.
Look at the tortoise and the hare.
That bunny got too comfortable , he held himself back. He kept stopping to look at the flowers, take naps, and do eveything but move forward.
And the tortoise!
He may not have gotten there fast but he made it to his destination right on time.he got their right when he was suppose to. He knew where he needed to go and he didn’t let anyone or thing stop him from moving forward.
Now this could be your partner, your job, your friends, your family, your location, your strongholds.
Whatever is holding you back, leave it.
When you see what you could be
When you see where you could be
Once you know that your potential is endless
Don’t stop
Take yourself to the end.
The world will keep moving forward with or without you. But where do you wanna be ? Still holding onto something at the starting line, or jumping through the valleys of freedom and possibilities at the finish?
Let go
What is meant to be will be.
