Moments in life........

We all have days that we want this day to end. Whether your heart is breaking, your depressed, sad, hurt...frustrated or overwhelmed....believe me, I understand.

I am human. I am real. I cry. I get sad....I want you to know I go through all the things you do and you are going through!

Last night I definitely washed my heart with tears.  And as I cried, I could feel my heart trying to mend itself....and as more tears fell...and my nose got stuffed up....I felt all of me melt.

Sometimes things in our lives feel so far from perfect. So imperfect, that our hearts long for things to be so right. We may feel like our lives are far away from the “perfect lives” we see on tv or in movies. We may be unhappy with our looks. With decisions we made and wish we could take back. Whatever the case may be.

I’m here to to say: It’s ok, we are real, our feelings are real. That’s what makes us beautiful. Real is beautiful.

I want you to know that if tears have been running down your face....”tears are rain for your heart that just bring out rainbows and flowers in your soul”...Even though you may have tears at night, you can dance and sing in the morning with a new day, filled with new hope....new smiles....new songs of happiness!

It's healthy to cry, argue, scream, and vent. It gets your feelings out and sometimes you just need it to feel release and relief.
When you have a moment:

love yourself- be kind, and tell yourself it’s ok....
rest- sleep restores and refreshes our mind to deal with all the “problems” in our lives
give yourself permission to be imperfect- some of the most amazing people I’ve ever known were ones that had lives that were FAR from perfect
if tears are falling- let them fall, let your mascara get all messed up (ha ha ha)...release all that your heart is full with...
“talk in a can”- talk with can’s....”I can be happy”, “I can get through this”, I can be happy happy no matter how imperfect my life is”. “I can do it!!!!”

I have been in many moments that I thought I couldn’t take much more of...and in all those moments I said, “these things may seem too BIG for me, TOO much to handle, I can’t take anymore!”...
STOP....take a deep breath...say, “I’m ok....I am much stronger than I think. I can go through anything...and just like that broken shattered mirror that shines are sparkled more and more because of all it’s brokeness... we will shine and sparkle more!”

Look and remember who you love and care about. Find things to be grateful for dears. Don't think you are the only one with issues or fight or scream! We all have those moments!! It is nothing to be ashamed of my darlings.
I will be that expert sailor, with all kinds of stories of awful storms I’ve been through...but you know what...just like an old wise sailor....I will be able to go through any storm and steer my little “life” boat though anything because I’ve navigated through some serious “troubled storms in my life!”

So the next time you are feeling down.....know that it’s ok...I’ve been there with you....I was just there last night!  ha ha ha ha

And as my gramma says: “Any day your above ground is a good day!”

Huge love my precious hearts.....I hope you can feel the hug I’m sending to your heart right now!
I feel down a lot at times because of things, but I look around and remember the loved ones I have right now.
How lucky I am to have a husband, a beautiful step-daughter, and friends and fans who support me through all.

I'm sleepy.......
huge love....again
