In life they say our experiences can make us who we are today by either molding us or they can introduce the spirit to fear.  no one wakes up one day deciding to have a fear of trusting others and no one is immune to the effects of being hurt and neglected by someone we trust dearly. My question is do you believe it is possible to walk in `your purpose with an open mind and present enough to be aware of what really is. The key is to pray and hope for the best but expect the worse in any situation, the problem is most people are only open to one. On one end you have the people that eat, breathe, and think of all the negative possibilities, so much that they have closed the doors on many good opportunities. The reality is you can never be too careful, and you do not ever want to be too carefree, the energy and time we invest into people is a risk, so it is our responsibility to be on point with a method to protect your energy and space without losing integrity with yourself and purpose.

Ultimately everything that we experience in life are all important ingredients for what we are cooking, the past does not predict or change your future. What if I told you we were all assigned a great task from the day we were born? and that no matter how straight, or crooked of a path you take along the journey it does not change what God has already placed in us.  What if we all believe and get present to this fact, the way we internalize or process these things is important and does have major impact on how we navigate through life. there are many steps and guides available for us all, but some people want change more than others, and there are some with ego’s as big as a globe that prevents them from first acknowledging that they have a problem and taking the next step in getting help. Life does not come with a manual all we have is learned behaviors taught to us by our parents which they learned from their parents who did the best with what they had. The belief system we are comfortable with is what dictates how we process the pain from past experiences and creates this false reality that being fearful and guarded is the right way to survive.

Our goal in life should be focused on thriving   and trusting that all things can and will work itself out the way it is meant to, but most importantly being mindful of the energy you are putting out there we do reap what we sow. The older we get we become more responsible for how we flow through life how we communicate, who we are being to ourselves and others, and the thoughts we have. If you ever must choose between your pride and being open to change choose to put your ego to the side because we cannot grow by standing in our own way God can only bless our authentic self. The state of our mental health is just as important as our physical, emotional, and spiritual health self-healing is a choice just as happiness is our choice.  I encourage everyone today reading to first acknowledge the areas we struggle in, secondly taking the steps to heal, and finally learning how to connect with God. Invest more time in becoming present and available For God to guide and protect you, to trust but be available in your spirit to hear his message. The time we spend guarding our hearts and denying our weaknesses let us put more energy into trusting, being present, and trust that the universe is working with you not against you.  Set your intentions on purity and love, today I will allow God to be my guard as I allow myself to love, be kind and open to all possibilities and experiences weather good or bad there is something to be learned either way.
