Don't Sabotage Your Destiny


Pain causes deeply rooted trauma. I wonder if many of us have taken the time to assess our lives and the painful experiences we have had over time.

I am not shy in speaking my truth about a lifetime of pain that utterly rendered me numb to moving forward in my life. I am typically speaking of heartbreaks, toxic relationships, unforgiveness and deeply rooted resentment that  have been buried and carried over my lifetime which left a distinctive residue and marked me significantly.

I would have thought that I had a sign on me that says, pain resides here. I just could not duck heart break, toxic reactions and strained relationships. It just seemed that I was attracted to pain.

The hardest thing I ever had to do is push past pain, push past betrayal, lies, manipulation,  rejection, fear of the unknown and a past that was riddled with so much shame and guilt. 

No-one talks about the shame and guilt from past experiences and voluntary bad decisions that cripples one with fear, self doubt and a feeling of unworthiness...no-one wants to tell their truth and shame the devil because of a cruel judgmental world.

So we cover our pain and bury our truth...

Healing can only take place when we uncover our painful truths.

Yet, healing is an ongoing process for me, because I have certain triggers that  come up from time to time that I realize that I need to put in more work

I need quite a bit more work in my self healing regimen so as to be able to freely grow and advance as a healed rejuvenated soul.

One of the things that I have done constantly after every traumatic hurtful experience is build a memorial to my pain.  

What do I mean?

I constantly remind myself of my hurts or my past traumas when anything good comes to my life.

This preempts my possibilities of a lasting promises of a future.

I sabotage my destiny because I cannot release myself from the painful experiences of my past.

I hold on too tight to offenses. I relive the injustices and betrayal repeatedly which keeps me immobolized.

Some of us allow pain to live in our hearts and our very being too long that it damages our soul.

This is what I allowed to happen for so many years of my life until I was fully ready to let go.

Newsflash: You cannot move on or successfully forward with baggage. 

You cannot move on replaying painful moments of your past

You cannot move on without giving yourself a chance to embrace goodness that comes into your life.

You cannot move on without forgiving yourself and others.

You cannot move on without accepting who you are. 

When ever you are ready... I mean fully ready to release the baggage or weights from your past.

Your destiny awaits you...

    Well said my friend. I couldn't have said it better. You have unveiled the bare truth that many thousands are trapped in. Especially our women.

Mean It!

  Hello, is this thing on?🎤 Well, it has been a while since I have released a blog post. The reason is that I have not been inspired to write much of anything lately. When I tell you the season I was in, from a personal perspective was a dry season. it was a period of being off the grid and staying in the shadows. It was the season of my detox. It required me to be poured into rather than pouring out myself.  Lately, I found myself searching and in desperate need of something different. I needed more!   Now, I want to qualify my statement, by simply stating that I needed more than the norm. More for my life! My professional life, my spiritual life, and my personal life required me to seek beyond my normal. I was... no I am intentional about my next season being way different than before. I cannot get away with a mediocre outlook on life because I want more of what life has to offer.  I want to be more. I want to experience more. I am not speaking from the materialistic or influential

Unspoken Words...I Broke Down Today!!!

So how's this for a reel...real talk, real truth and real emotions... I Broke Down Today!!! Some would say, I had a meltdown while others would say I lost total control of my emotions. I would have been deemed emotional and yet I was unashamed... I baled, I balled, I cried out in desperation because of hurt, pain, mishandling and misinformation. You see days before I was walking tall, proud that I was keeping it all together. For what though, for a world that is growing colder and callous every day. Now has me wondering, do people truly care about people. The world today is not the world that I dreamt about...a world of peace, love, unity, equality, equity and family togetherness...just the sound of it seems farfetched now. But yet I still have a dream... that one day tings gonna get better...like the good Bishop says. I broke down today because family is not the same anymore, so much  division, so much strife, no unity and I am asking where is the love that once was had. I broke d

Live Free: Getting Rid of Toxic Connections

I hate to admit the obvious, but I am still learning how life, love and all things in between work. I must confess that I will forever be a life-long learner until the day I die. One thing I've recently discovered for certain is that we are responsible for what we bring into our lives. We are responsible for the types of relationships we have and the people we are associated with. I am aware of how toxic people can be and how we must truly guard our peace at all costs. The older you get, the more baggage you carry. Unfortunately, if the weight is not offloaded, it becomes heavier and heavier. You can then unload on an unwitting victim. On this blog, I've often mentioned introspection and doing the work on yourself before you can help anyone else. However, for clarity and emphasis, you must prioritize your personal development and healing. This comes with the understanding and knowledge that some people are not your assignment and you are not required to help them improve. Geesh
