Helloo Everyone!!!
I’m back! And I’m glad to be back. These JOBS(just over broke) will get you into them, and out of yourself. When you know your passion, it’s what you always come back too, and writing is mine. So I’m back with more stories, more laughs, and more of The Real Mommie Teresa! I’ll do some catch ups with Teresa blogs also, but today I want to talk about my topic….”Flowers can’t bloom in dead soil.”
I was listening to Periscope yesterday, yes Periscope, I’m on it..@teresacrawford, just in case you want to follow me. I’ll be doing more of those soon too. 🙂 Well
Ms. LaToyia Jones,(Check her out) was on, and she talked about don’t quit before you start. Another great topic, but during her discussion, she made a reference that no flower will bloom if the soil is dead. That took me to so many different places in life. It was like I could just see the dead flower limping, and wondering what it would take to bring it back to life. Then I hear it.. “new soil”.
To the point, when something has expired in your life, then the time is up. That can be a job, a lover, a husband, a wife, a car, a house, a friendship, or whatever. When you’ve done all you can do to make something work, and it’s not working, then maybe the soil is dead. When the soil is dead, water doesn’t work, fertilizer doesn’t work, nothing works. The only thing that will work, is to dump that soil, and replace it with new soil. So what am I saying? You already know. Get rid of what’s keeping your flower from blooming. When a beautiful flower is dead, it limps over, the colors fade, the leaves fall off, and the total appearance of the flower has changed. That means, you look sad, you feel bad, you feel depressed, you’re angry, you don’t want to do anything productive, your spirit is dead. Is anyone experiencing that? If you are, then you need to dump that dead soil, and replace it with new, fresh soil! With new fresh soil, you get revitalized, you get refreshed, your color comes back, you start feeling good about yourself, and you start to bloom!! Once you start blooming, then you start growing, and you get stronger and more beautiful That soil that was killing you, is gone, and the new soil has brought you back to life.
That’s life.. don’t let what is not for you keep holding you down. The only way you will flourish, is to not be afraid to make changes in your life. That decision is NOT easy, but it has to happen. If you keep doing what you are doing, you’ll keep getting what you are getting. The only way you will get something different, is to do something different. If you keep doing the same thing and expect different results, you’ll just see that flower slowing starting to limp and die So today, replant that flower in some new and improves soil! Help that flower bloom and blossom!! Now is your season!!! God will reap your blessing as long as you sow.
A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprung up, since they had no depth of soil, but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away. Other seeds fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked them. Other seeds fell on good soil, and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. He who has ears, let him hear. Matthew 13:3-9
That message just reiterates what I’m saying. Be careful where you put your soil..the ground also needs to be ready for the soil.
As Always..
Love & Kisses,
The Real Mommie Teresa
I’m sitting here on the bike after all this cardio and listening to MC Hammer in my ears. And I look at my screen and it says “cool down”. Well I start laughing because I always see more than what the words actually say. I have so many life stories that I could relate this too, but I’ll just be general with info. When I see cool down, it’s something that we all should take heed to. People are so trifling and will do some things to make you lose your cool. And once you lose your cool, it’s over! The adrenaline is pumped, you’re pissed, and your thoughts have become mangled. And do you care what you do or say? Heck no!!! Lol!! So that’s when we all need to program a cool down period in our lives. I’ve gotten so much better than I used to be!! I still may snap on occasions, but when I snap things are normally ok. It’s the silence that means there is a problem! So during this holiday season, when things don’t work out like you want them to, take a cool down break!! Cooling down slows the thought process. It gives you time to analyze a situation and foresee the outcome. Lots of friendships and possibly lives can be saved with a cool down period. Life is too short to be unhappy and steesses over something you CAN control. Keep having Faith in God and He will give you all the joys of your heart!!
