In the last two postings to my blog I explained my why I had not posted since last October and I hope you understand and accept my sincere apology for the inconsistent post. Prayerfully now I can get back on track with filling you in on this journey.
In fact it seems like so much in my life slowed down, almost stopped during this process of healing. When just about every step you take is painful you tend to move only when necessary and that’s a downer. My motivation and creativity seemed to hide on a shelf that was very difficult for me to reach, even on my tippy toes. Don’t worry, I didn’t get hooked on pain pills, even though they are readily available. To me they only dull your brain and not the pain.
Moving forward, and remember that’s what we always want to do. No going back!
In the post
that proceeded my hiatus, “It’s in Your Power” I talked about your power in GOD
to see beyond your situation and the power of your credit score! But today we
going to take it in a different direction. Believe me if you don’t know your
power, give it away or are unable to control it, well then you are a slave to
whatever and whoever. You’ll find yourself blaming others, situations and
things for you mistakes or lack. Many of us are giving our power away freely
these days as if it’s nothing important. Today I want to talk about the power
of the neck, woman.
Woman, the
neck that turns the head! There’s another expression, “Behind every great man
there’s a great woman”! When women talk men listen, that’s it in the nutshell. Look
what happened to Adam, Samson, and even Solomon, supposedly the wisest man.
They all listened to women and it changed the course of history, our very lives.
Now we can debate this if you’d like, but this is my opinion with truth and facts
woven into its being.
I’m going to
tell you now my female readers this may hurt, in many cases the truth does. While assessing what’s going on in society
today I see where we as women have dropped the ball. Yep, I said it and will stand
by it. Especially when I look at how so many so called men behave these days. As
a community and individually we complain about the males with their pants
hanging down, men not working while sitting at home playing video games and so
forth and so on. We also complain how men view women as objects and how disrespectful
some can be. Yet so many women accepted the term “baby’s momma”, while being demoted
from the mother of my child. Now which one has a more significant sound, baby
mama or the mother of my child? When I first heard the expression I just knew
it would be a fly by night saying and yet here in 2015 it’s become a mainstream
term.
Ladies, we’ve
got to tighten up! If we didn’t allow our sons to wear their pants down or
bring men into our homes with their pants down trust me they’d pull them up. In
my thinking, if you require more you’ll get more, but it seems these days so
many females are playing limbo, how low can you go. Not I’m far from perfect
and have made some mistakes, but like I said earlier we should always move
forward and not backward.
Even when I
did dirt I didn’t do it in front of my kids when they were around. I didn’t
want them to pick up my unfruitful ways so I’d put my best foot forward. Now nothings
hidden, the cursing, frequently changing partners, just any form of vulgarity is
done in front of and to children, and yet we expect them excel. That’s like
telling someone to drive the car while their sitting on a tricycle.
I’m not
looking down on anyone because I know it can be rough, but we’re the only ones
that can smooth out the roughness. No one is coming to the rescue. It’s not “their”
problem and nobody can fix us as individuals but GOD and we ourselves. If we
want change it’s us ladies that have to bring it about. We’ve got to learn to close our legs and open
my minds. Close our doors to drama and pick up a helpful book. Raise our children
instead of raising hell. Accept and acknowledge this is on us, pull up the big
girls panties and nurture ourselves, families and communities.
