Things I know to be true pt.2 (A love letter to myself)

 I have come to a place in my life where I have fallen into a pit that made me confront the harsh realization that I need some self love and self care. I have not been the main character in my life and I need to take the precautions to get back into the place where I can start feeling like myself again. The good news is, I have not been in this position for a long time; so it is easy to reverse. It should be pretty easy for me to be the center of attention in my own life (note: I want to be the center of attention in MY life, not everyone else's life). The problem is that I need to act fast to get me into the "self-love" mindset soon, this feeling could get very dark very soon. For the sake of the enemy not touching me this upcoming week, I need to think of the light and be with the light (the Lord). The enemy is not where the light is, and the Lord is not where the dark is. This week I have not been myself whatsoever. I have felt insecure, and became full of self-doubt. I want to be a woman who can think very highly of herself and that is almost ALWAYS sure of herself. As a start to that mentality-sift transition, here is another list of the things I know to be true. This is for you Soph, I love you 🤍

1) I love looking/ feeling pretty

2) I know the new puppy we got at home is driving me nuts, but he is the cutest thing and I still love him

3) Maggie is getting fat which i LOVE because she is just too cute and chubby. BUT that means she needs to go on more walks so that is good news for my physical and mental health (more hours soaking in the sun).

4) Pollen hasn't affected me at all so far. 

5) my dad's birthday is coming up and I'm so excited to celebrate him

6) My best friend's birthday is tomorrow and I can't wait to celebrate her and make her feel loved

7) I love a good fart that makes my stomach ache go away. 

8) I love taking showers (evening or morning, I'll take it any time) If I could shower twice a day, I would

9) I love it when class is let out early (so much so that it annoys me when we actually end class on time lol)

10) I love getting drinks with my parents

11) I love the opportunity to choreograph

12) I love finding a new song obsession (especially when I can listen to it at the gym and imagine myself choreographing it)

13) I love teachers that actually love their job

14) I love anyone that loves their job and are GOOD AT IT- it is so inspirational

15) i love people that give off very genuine energy (just really authentic)- those people are rare to come by

16) I love it when I drink more than 16 oz of water in one day

17) I love it when I like the hairstyle I have on

18) I love it when it's sunny outside

19) I love it when the coffee I ordered tastes really good

20) I love that the Lord is there for me anytime- what did I do to deserve that

21) I love a good yard sale 

22) I love it when Luka and I get along and love on each other 

23) I love eating a meal that is both really good tasting and healthy

24) i LOVEEEE going to the gym - it makes my body feel good 

25) I love my laugh, I love it when people make me genuinely laugh and I don't have to fake it 

That is pretty much all that i can think of from the top of my head. Take care of you Soph🤍

What Do You Dream Of?

 This was a question we were asked to write down the answer to. I believe it is the start to a unit of poetry. To this, I wrote the answer " today, I dream of being a good dancer". I wrote that mostly because that is what I had been dreaming of this week. So through this, I felt inspired to write all of the things that I actually dream of being  1) I dream to connect with victims of human trafficking with the strength and tenderness from the Lord  2) I actually do dream of being a good dancer  3) I dream of being really well off financially and being really good with money 4) I dream of knowing how to invest money in a good way (enough to cushion my dreams and my husband's) 5) I dream of understanding how to do taxes and be well versed in how to get deductions  6) I dream of owning a dance studio where I can take all the free dance classes I want  7) I dream of being surrounded with a really good community all my life 8) I dream of having a really healthy a...

Dear Sophia, This is the answer

 Dear Sophia,  I love you so much that I don't want you to go through ANYTHING but unfortunately, we have to from time to time to really prune us to who we will be in the future. Just remember, confusion is from the enemy and not from the Lord. If anything that comes to your mind strikes fear, it is not from the Lord. Fear does not come from the lord, respect does. So if you ever find yourself spiraling into lots of questions, take it to the Lord in prayer. Write it down. Eventually, you will understand- you don't need to know everything because God knows. So put your faith in that He has it all together so that you don't have to. But i highly encourage you to bring everything to Him. Seek Him more than you ever have, because there is always breakthrough in the breaking. Some, more than others, but rant to HIM. Don't stay stuck because that will frustrate you. You are not a woman of negativity, you are so wonderful in so many ways. If you feel like you are losing yourse...
