The New Side Chick Part II: But I Can’t Leave Him…

Awesome Read..Great Advice

Miss T. N. king

In my opinion, love is the greatest gift a person can give and receive. People spend a lifetime seeking, chasing, crying, and fighting for love. But what happens when that sweet love turns sour? Your sunny skies turn gray, and the one person you loved the most has given you the biggest heartache.  I want to discuss how to let go of toxic relationships and gain the strength to move forward. Since I’ve published “The ‘New’ Side Chick: I was Her”, a lot of men and women have contacted me sharing their similar experiences and have asked me how to move on from someone you love. I too have faced the same challenge, and through the grace of God, I’ve made it.

Growing up, I’ve always vowed to never give my heart away. I liked, but wouldn’t dare to love. However, all of that changed once…

Because I’m Happy!!

The secret to being happy in life is accepting where you are in life and making the most out of everyday!

Nothing is promised to us, not our jobs, our spouse, loyalty, love, money…nothing. Learning to see things and people for who they really are and dealing with them in that moment is the only guarantee we really have.

Nobody will go to bat for you harder than you will go for yourself. Always remember that nobody owes you anything but YOU owe yourself happiness.

Start by eliminating any and everything that does not bring you joy. Whatever causes you to frown or question it, let it go, dismiss it from your life. Negative people , exhausting situations, stress, disloyal friends…show them all the exit door out of your life.

You have to let people go. Everyone whose in your life were meant to to be in YOUR journey, but not ALL of them are meant to stay til the end!

What Is Beautiful?

 

What is beauty? What determines beauty and why is it so important in our lives?

As the old adage goes “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” I’m reminded of all the emphasis that is placed on beauty in today’s society. Physical beauty, at its best, is boxed in and defined as anybody that mimics whatever the standards of Hollywood are at this very moment. No longer is your beauty defined by the qualities that you possess but are now determined by the size of your waist, the shape of your eyes, the pucker in your lips, the length of your hair or the roundness of you rump shaker. It’s sad that your personality and other great attributes that you have to offer are now  seen as “lackluster” because reality TV and other ridiculousness dictates the standards of beauty. 

Beauty, in its simplest form, creates a feeling. It personifies the smell of roses, the chime of wind in the air, the ripple in the ocean or the dew of the morning rain. Beauty has the power to create energy, soothe fears, expose emotions and subside anger. Beauty can sometimes be indescribable. It can cause one to gravitate towards it or create an urge to go out and seek it.

 

What is your beauty? Does it define you or does it compliment you? Seek it in everything you do. Listen for it in the music you play. Cherish it, Recognize it, embrace it but most importantly share it with those you love and care about.

 

Life is Beautiful, share all that it has to offer you.

Approach to Love

So Jaieku Cafe

What is your Approach to Love?

How do you approach love? Do you sneak up on it? Do you let it happen naturally? Do you sabotage love on purpose? Do you avoid it altogether?
Let’s establish one thing- there are no guarantees in Love- you don’t get a receipt, you can’t return it to the store because it didn’t fit or it wasn’t the same when you got home. Love is at best a gamble. There are risks involved and sometimes one of those risks include the possibility of getting hurt or rejected. Are you up for the challenge?
If so, ask yourself do I want real love or the artificial nutra-sweet version of the real thing?
Do I deserve to be treated like a queen when clearly I don’t treat my honey like he’s a king? What do I bring to the table other than MY bills and My hopes that if he’s a…

Dating: Are We Giving Too Much Too Soon?

A Really good read and point of View on Dating,love and relationships!

These are Our Twenties

I can’t get past it; people are constantly thinking, talking, or writing about relationships. There are so many blogs, books, songs, and movies dedicated to that wonderful thing called love.

Love. That all-consuming, end all, be all. That, I love everything horrible about you kind of love that leaves us shaken, stirred, and all that other crap. Yet love, real love, isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be; it’s work. I say this because I am an observer, and what I have observed in this short life is that unconditional love is something that can be extremely rare. Any person lucky enough to experience it in their lifetime is extremely blessed, but it is still work, and it takes time to grow and flourish.

As I have been watching, I have seen so many of my friends do some crazy things in search of this so-called love, but it…
