WELCOME TO MY BLOG WHERE I WILL SHARE WHAT LIFE HAS taught ME so far.
YOU ARE MY CREATION. Years ago I created you in your mother's wound and knew the exact day, time and year that you would enter this world even before your parents did. You are my elevation, as i know the plans I have for you from you achieving the smallest of goals you set to the biggest dreams that you are meant to achieve. Because you see, I already knew which path you would take, the friends you would make, the ones that were meant to be there for a season and for a reason as well as the ones that are meant to walk beside you through your whole life path. I know the opportunities you will have and the significant others you were destined to have in your life, whether it was for a moment in time to teach you a lesson or if it is the one you are destined to be with. You are my knowledge, as i created you with knowledge full of passion, gifts, talents, and a heart full of compassion. Its up to you to develop and exercise those talents and passions to see the greater attraction at work from my will. You are my purpose, as you were born on purpose for my purpose: perfectly calculated and cultivated to discover your purpose and once you do, your life will soar to higher heights that not only you will see but others around you will inspire to be. You are my disciple. You might not know it yet, but i have called each and everyone of you to follow me, seek me, hear me, be inspired and uplifted by me to encourage one another and change the world through each and every one of you one by one in my own perfect timing. You are my light, as i am the light to follow and i have instilled the shine within you that will move, change and captivate everyone with small acts of kindness, elevating, inspiring and aiding others to embrace their own light to shine endlessly. You are my creation, understand that i have and will continue to open doors for you to your unique path to embrace and navigate until you reach your desired destination. Keep in constant prayer with me and i will show you the meaning of the wonderful wonders of life in store for you and the meaning of why i call YOU MY CREATION! ~JESUS~ To the person who is reading my blog post: Thank-you for stopping by, i appreciate it!! For anyone that knows me, knows that writing is part of me, I've loved doing it since i was 8 years old. This message was inspired by OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST as i truly believe he is simply using me as his vessel to share his love for all of us. Sometimes i look at the things i write with awe not even believing i wrote them. I'm not saying this because i claim to be a good writer; I honestly think i have tons of improving to do. The reason why i get shocked at my own writing is because i feel a sense of closeness with the words myself Sometimes (not always). Most of the time when i can't relate to the things i write, that's when i'm most compelled to share it because maybe someone else can relate to it. I just thank god everyday for his word of knowledge through reading the scriptures and just my own personal walk and relationship with him. He never ceases to surprise and amaze me especially when i need it the most . So if you need to hear this, just know, it doesn't matter what life circumstances you might be presented with right now; whether you're at a crossroads, conflicted, angry, sad, thoughtful or even joyful(because God needs praise in Good times and bad times). You can have people come in and out your life, but just know God is the same as he was yesterday as he is today for his love, grace, support and compassion endures with you forever. Lean on to him and know that his love never fails. Be graceful, Be grateful, Stay blessed!

If you ask me what the definition of Love is, I would tell you that Love is a beautiful intense/sincere emotion that you feel for God, family, friends/coworkers or a significant other. The contrast between these loves is that they all are manifested in different ways. Godly love is a super-natural need to reach out to God in times of need or in happy times to ask for aide or to thank him. When we pray, go to church, read the bible and read God's word it builds a bond and bind with God that truly can't be broken. It not only increases the love we have for him but it increases the closeness God will have with us. For family, the love you have for them is unconditional as you want to protect, help and guide them throughout their lives. For a friend, depending on how close you are : you might even have the same love as you have for your family for them. Generally, friendship love is" I'm here for you when you need me sort of thing. "And sometimes a friend is so close to you that you can tell he/she everything and they become like family. As for a partner love: With this love, depending on how deep your love is for your partner, it can become unconditional love as well wanting to make this person happy in all ways and just want to uplift and nurture that person. I would also like to a think, a significant other would bring the best out in you. JESUS SAID, " LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF". Mark 12:31(NIV) Love is everything I just wrote and more. Love is spreading humility, kindness, respect and same consideration to everyone you encounter. No matter what age, nationality, race, ethnicity, religion and social rank status or country one is from. Love is smiling and saying hello to a stranger. Love is volunteering at a homeless shelter and/ or passing out food/ donating, whatever we can . Because anything small or big goes a long way. Love is giving a meal to a homeless person on the street. Love is feeding God's creatures that roam around your neighborhoods. Love is POSSITIVELY DEFENDING an unjust situation by praying, using your voice to spread messages and becoming an advocate. Love is hugging someone and praying for them when they are having a hard time in their life. Love is what propelled leaders like Toussaint Louverture and Martin Luther King to have a Dream and take steps towards it to change the wrong things around the world. Love is what makes the World Go round: It always prevails: Love is what pushed everyone around the world to take action during the 2010 Earthquake in Haiti. It was amazing to see how people everywhere donated their time, money, food and clothes and came together to offer assistance to find the families that were missing under rumble and help those who were injured, and lost everything. What is amazing is how that continued during several other natural disaster incidents in other countries. Lately it has been heart-breaking to see all the hurt, pain, hate, blaming and despair that has been going on around the world, All this is nothing more than evil at its force. But the force of the image and the likeliness of God within us is bigger, stronger and better to stop all of this day by day. Please take time to think: What would Jesus do: before you say cruel words, instigate or go out and hurt someone. Sometimes a simple thing as a misunderstanding of rumors or heightening of things(nowadays it is worse with social media) or a bad judgement call can push someone to do something bad but in reality this is not the true person's character. I think if people thought of different reasons as to why someone does something bad no matter how bad it is: there would truly be less division, hate and confusion and more comfort, unity and love. If we thought of more positive ways to help that person see what they did was wrong: this would be a better approach. Being a voice to speak up about different ways to change what is wrong and being an advocate/advisor for that person to change: is the key that will open doors to peace, joy and love for eternity. We have to have faith and want change and set forth different ways to implement and continuously apply these ideas for a movement. So if we can have such strong unconditional love for family and friends and we are able to feel empathy and help others: Why don't we show that continuous love to a neighbor? To everyone? Think of the last time you helped someone through community service or in general. Remember how you changed that person's situation or life for the better. When you stopped yourself from getting mad and thought of a cooler way to stay amicable with that person, Didn't it make you feel good about yourself? So imagine if all of us did this everyday how beautiful this world would be! We All can do this. As we can all do things through Christ that strengthens us: Philippians 4:13.(NIV) If you really think about it: doesn't it take more effort and distress to your mind and body to go against your good being than to spread love. Plus it doesn't take a lot to pass Love on. Lets continue to AMPLIFY the love that we all know we have within us to change humanity. With this, ONLY LOVE WILL CONQUER ALL. Darkness cannot drive Darkness, Only LOVE can do that. Hate cannot drive out Hate ONLY LOVE CAN DO THAT. (Martin Luther King) Since I was young I have witnessed some cruel things done to my friends such as people calling them fat, four eyes, weak, dumb, ugly etc. And sometimes it was so consistent, that I had to stand up for them. I always told the people making fun of my friends: "Hey its wrong what you’re doing everyone is beautiful and smart just the way they are." To fit in, children want to follow the crowd and take a simple thing like glasses someone wears to read better and call them "Four eyes”. The thing is during teenage years, the child could already be critical of themselves and have self- esteem problems and still trying to find himself and their place in the world. Having added pressure, teasing, hate, or any form of prejudice or discrimination is only going to emotionally drain these children out. Bullies come in all shapes and sizes and this is why there are several reasons why someone could bully. It could be temperament, size, peer-pressure, self-esteem, the child themselves experienced bullying or a child going through a serious problem at home. There are several types of bullying. One example is physical bullying and that is when the bully uses their strength to kick, hit, slap, or shove someone to get them to do their h/w for them or give them their lunch money. The second is Verbal bullying which is teasing or name calling to gain power and control over the victim. The bully chooses someone who is in-defensive and most often kids with special needs are the target and it is always done when there is no adult around so it’s always one person’s word against the other and then it’s hard to identify. Prejudicial bullying is when teens have prejudices towards people of a different race, religion or sexual orientation. They then seek out to verbally, emotionally or physically hurt them. This kind can cause hate crimes and should always be reported. Emotional and Cyber-bullying are similar because when both of them are done; the bully can harass, threaten, embarrass and spread rumors to seek to hurt their peers and sabotage their social standing. Lastly, sexual bullying is when crude comments are said about a girl’s appearance, attractiveness and sexual development so that her reputation is ruined. This might even invite a guy to think that she is eagerly ready or easy when in reality that is not true and then want to engage in sexual activity and/ or may lead to sexual assault. An example of this is a girl bully. She can like a guy but her admirer likes another girl that is smart and pretty. And since, the bully has self-esteem issues on her physical development and is jealous or intimidated by the other girl, she seeks to discredit her: To take away attention from her target, she spreads a rumor about how she dates a lot of men, drinks a lot and is easy so this shines the light on her so she can get attention from the guy she likes. In 2013, researchers followed a population-based sample of 1,420 children aged 9, 11 and 13 from 11 counties in western North Carolina who were enrolled in the Great Smoky Mountain Study. The research revealed that 26%(421 subjects) said that they were bullied. Both boys and girls reported similar rates of bullying. 200 kids (9.5% of the group admitted that they bullied someone. Out of 112, 86% were bullies themselves. So as you can see bullying is a serious issue and it has only gotten worse over the years. They also found that those who have been bullied were at a higher risk of developing a psychiatric disorder than those who have not been bullied. In particular, those who had only been bullied had higher levels of depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, panic disorders and agoraphobia. Back when I was in middle school, I remember having these puffy braids that my mom had me wear. And I remember thinking. Why? Why is she doing this to me? Boy I hated those braids! Because everyone had permed or naturally straight and long hair and I just wanted to “FIT IN” Instead I got made fun of. I defended myself every time and acted as if it didn’t bother me but deep inside, I just wanted to cry. When I got my perm before I went to high school, my hair was longer and luscious. It was then, I realized that my mom only had me wear those braids along with moisturizers and other products to help it grow. I now thank my mother for doing that. Nowadays, I not only have thick skin but also don’t really pay any mind to what people think or say about me. I always think: “Oh this person must have an issue going on” and I shrug it off and keep it moving. But I still remember those emotions I felt when someone made fun of me repeatedly. Now if that’s the only thing that I went through in middle school and it affected me that bad: JUST IMAGINE what systematic constant bullying can do to a person. The article/video linked below shows 5 boys ganging up on a teen. This video is shocking and sad to me. I think about what kind of emotional and serious physical pain that this boy went through but also what the bully must be going through as well and what parents can do to help the child stop bullying on the aggressor and victim’s side. No parent wants to find out that their child is a bully because you wouldn’t like to think that your child would do such a thing. And this is why, a parent should not refer the child as a bully but instead find out the reason why he/she is doing the act. If your child is doing it because they themselves got bullied, talk to them about the incident(s) and teach them retaliation against others is not the key because another child is not to blame of what happened and encourage them not to do it again. If they have a lot of hurt build up their self-esteem. If it is because of peer pressure, tell them that its ok to stand up to peer pressure and say No and that no one can tell what to do and that bullying is a choice and the choice to make friends than hurt someone is better. If the problem escalades and your child is threatened to bully others, speak to your child’s teacher and try to find a peaceful solution between you, your child, the child’s parents and the child itself. If your child is bullying to try and fit it, teach them the importance of choosing their friends wisely and that the friends they make, have a big influence on the person they will become in the future. If your teacher has taken action and given your child the consequences for bullying, support the teacher and fully support the decision instead of taking your child’s side because tough love can teach the child that bullying is wrong and that there are consequences to their actions. If needed be, one on one therapy or family counseling can help the child have an outside perspective and can help them change their ways. If the child is being bullied, teach your child non-violent ways to deal with bullies like walking away, talking to friends or talking it out. God said “LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS I LOVED YOU.” (John 13:34:(NIV) There is nothing more beautiful than showing gentleness and kindness to a person and that will not only cheer up the person but it will also make you feel good inside for expressing love. Please STOP BULLYING and choose LOVE. Love is the force that can crush war, crime, and pain. It breaks barriers between those that hate each other. Build peace and unity between all of God’s children all across the world and elevate his kingdom with endless love for eternity! Let us STOP BULLYING and spread LOVE. :) Link to video of teenage boy physically bullied: http://bit.ly/1VPMA7S |
