Positive. . .

Feeling sure, feeling clear, feeling positive
Feeling free and complete from the love you give
No, You won't ever leave me, I'm positive
Positive, yeah I'm positive 
Feeling sure, feeling clear, feeling positive
Feeling free and complete from the love you give
No, you won't ever leave me, I'm positive
I'm positive, yeah I'm positive

One thing I know for sure when I'm in a positive frame of mind, everything just flows, everything finds their way and nothing is blocked. Are you currently lacking the clarity to do what you need to do? Are you feeling unsure and feeling negative? Heck, that is me on most days. Most of the time when I do post or write blog posts like this, it is usually as a note to self, to remind myself about what I need to do, how I need to reframe and revisit the thoughts in my head and how I choose to be in the world. If you hadn't figured that out already, what have you been reading lol. There is no greater love than that of God, Sometimes I forget that in my life because I allow my pride and ego to sustain me when I should be doing the complete opposite.

I know who I am and I know who I'm not
I know the difference between the two and it tells me a lot
I know who's on the throne, on the throne of my life
He tells me all the wrong lefts and when to go right
He's the King, He's the God, He's the biggest,
He's the truth, He's the light, He's a realist
When He tells me He loves me I feel it
Ain't nobody on the earth that can steal it
So I'm 

I used to think that I knew who I was and what I am not. But I find that everyday I question this and it's not because I'm trying to pin myself down in any sense of the word, but it is more to do with me being able to figure who I am and who I am not. The thing that makes me laugh is that even if I was to tell everyone who I am and who I am not - people would just choose to believe whatever they wanted to about me or believed what they life. The thing is, right now, I am far more positive about who I am because God is with me. When I have chosen to install him on the throne of my life, it's definitely been a rollercoaster of a ride! I mean, those are the best times to learn lessons right? 


Gonna focus on the good, let Him handle the rest
I try to fix my bad, I keep making the mess
So I made up my mind, smile more stress less
Gave it all to God and He gave me a bless
Feeling sure, feeling clear, feeling positive
Feeling free and complete from the love you give
No, You won't ever leave me, I'm positive
Positive, yeah I'm positive 

Focusing on God's gifts and talents, His mercies and grace over my life, continues to sustain me. When I have leaned on my own understanding and tried to fix everything myself, it has never turned out right. When things don't go to plan, God has always revealed in due course that those opportunities were never meant for me, and that those people did not have their best interests at heart for me. You would be so surprised to know how simple a small smile can go towards helping you relieve stress. Surround yourself with people who make you smile on a daily basis. Minimise stress by staying away from situations that do not have any benefit for your mental health and well-being.

You think I'm about to fail, naw
A fail is just an obstacle, I'm 'bout to scale, y'all
A testament I got to tell, faith
I'm about to flex on 'em, study for the test on 'em
I'm positive my God can do the rest
Feeling sure, feeling clear, feeling positive
Feeling free and complete from the love you give
No, You won't ever leave me, I'm positive
Positive, yeah I'm positive 

I am continuing to learn the value of all my failures in life. The successes that people see that I wear and represent are only things on the surface. They do not speak volumes about the countless hours of sacrifice beneath the surface. Being a role model doesn't mean you enjoy wearing the mantle of responsibility. It means that you are well aware of what your divine mission is and what you need to accomplish in the time that you have been given. The testimony of your life should be one that you will not be able to deny and not be ashamed to share. As long as you keep the faith and keep God on the throne of your life, you will always be positive. . .

God provides. . .

There's no more need to fight. . .  God provides, so why do I worry about my life When you come to my rescue a thousand times Every other voice it is a lie God provides It is easy to worry about your life.  It's what humans are built to do. We worry about so many things.  What people think of us.  How we act towards said people.  We worry about things that we cannot control, things we cannot hold.  We spend far too much time worrying about things that we shouldn't be worrying about.  When we think that nothing can come from anything, that's when God provides, above all else.  How many times have you been rescued?  Did you ask to be rescued?  Did you ask to be placed in those situations that required God to step in and save you?  Maybe yes.  Maybe no.  But one thing that I've come to know is that God has never lead me to a place that I couldn't get through, that I couldn't understand why I was lead there, that I di...

Closer. . .

I was cruising down the street with my head in the sky Going nowhere fast trying to stay high oh, oh Windows down my arms are waving Oh Lord I can't feel ma face no no, no no, aye, Sister please won't you sing for me Sing a song to set us free, free Brother please won't you sing for me Sing a song to set us free, free The original version of this song is upbeat. I prefer this acoustic version as it resonates more with me, something about it going deep down in my soul (or it could just be the piano accompaniment). We might think we are heading nowhere fast because we keep comparing ourselves to our peers, our contemporaries and the timeline that we set for ourselves to complete all of our dreams and goals. We forget that life happens and things outside of our control, start to take control - and this is where the real work begins within ourselves - whether we have the right support systems of brothers and sisters to sing us songs of freedom - what can we collectively do toge...

I smile. . .

You look so much better when you. . .  I dedicate this song to recession Depression and unemployment This song's for you When you think about songs that have dedications at the beginning during the introduction, how does it contribute to the song?  I often think about how those dedications speak to my own situation.  We may all be going through some trials at the moment and nobody around us is none the wiser.  I've often spoken about it to friends when we do that usual - how are you?  The expected answer is - I'm good. But really we're not.  Why do we do that to ourselves?  We don't want to burden others with our problems or issues. Sometimes the flip side might be true and you have friends who dump their problems and issues onto you, but don't reciprocate.  I hope people get to know you and what you're about.  They need to see that they might be potentially ruining the friendship or connection by doing that. Today's a new day but th...
