For Better or Worse: Are You Happy Wit Yourself Right Now?

Hi, I'm so excited about my Blog because it is a way for us to communicate with each other and I pray you take some time and get to know yourself and others since life is so short.

Right now, I want to know, at this moment, right now in time, not yesterday, not tomorrow or a couple of years from now, Are You Happy Wit Yourself Right Now?

The saying I used to motivate MYSELF, let's be serious, we have to motivate ourselves sometimes because we aren't always going to receive positive feedback or a pat on the back from others, let alone their time and wisdom, is the following:

For better or worse there is always going to be a tomorrow, the questions is will you be in it? And if so, WHO ARE YOU?


Now ask yourself if you live to see another tomorrow, would you have reached all of your goals or at least some of them.

In your past, what did you manage to build or destroy?

In your today, tell me at least three things you have accomplished?
In your tomorrow, tell me at least three things you would like to accomplish?

What was your CHILDHOOD DREAM?
Are you living your dream or somebody else's dream like, here it goes, your Mother, Father, Grandparent? You know some of our dreams are molded, shaped, and almost painted by others! That's not always bad, but you need your imput!


Let us continue...
Have you reached the dream?
If yes, how did you do it?
If no, what is taking you so long? Meaning is it YOU/FEAR, your spouse/significant other, children, career, etc.?


Always remember, we work, we take care of our family, but we have to take time out for our dreams and yes, your career and family are part of your dreams. However, there is a part of you that belongs only to you and you have to nurture yourself.

Give me some feedback and let me know all that pertains to YOU RIGHT NOW!

If you don't find it, add it and ask me a couple of questions in geneeral, advice, about my books, etc...I'm here for you and we are here for each other! and I'm not afraid to admit that...

YOU RIGHT NOW.....

I’m happy? I’m happy & sometimes sad? I’m half and half? I’m fine and dandy? I might need some improvements? I’ve made mistakes? No matter how old I get I’m still going to make mistakes? I’m not perfect? I don’t make mistakes? I am perfect? I’m glad I’m single? I need a mate? I’m glad I have a mate? I’ll never marry again? I love being married? I love having my kids? I don’t want any kids? I love my career? I need to change jobs? You know what no one is perfect, I’m happy, and I love my life, and yes I need to make some changes but otherthanthat I’m good. With any of the above, U R U! and U R Love!

Hello right now I am happy with myself. I have a great family, employed, my health is good. I am not currently in a relationship but I am dating(that's fun). I read your first book and was at your signing in VA(Borders). Can I ask you the same question you are asking us are you happy with yourself right now? Thanks for creating a website like this that cool.

HI Loveuj, yes I am happy right now, I think we all have a different definition of what happiness means to us, in looking at why you are happy, those are really good reasons. I too have a great family, I am in good health, and I do have a good job. The most important thing in life, to me, is God and family, if I have these two things, nothing else is impossible. Thanks for coming to my book signing, I hope to have more in the future. Keep reading the blogs and thanks for sharing a part of yourself with me.

Hi.This is the first time I have ever written in a blog. I am very happy that u have given something to me as a woman that I can express how I feel without any judgement.Besides my Children and a few very close family members and health, I am not happy with myself or the direction my life is going into or shall I say has become. I feel my man or to better put it the love of my life might be cheating on me and that alone does not make me happy. I dont have proof, but just the way I feel sometimes and yes as a woman in love that feeling of the one you love not being faithful could make u very unhappy.I read your first book Married, Single , Sexless and Childless(sorry if the title is not in the right order). The book really made me see my life much different than the way it was and also made me reflect and fix some of my faults. I Thank God and U and whoever else played a part in you writing your first book and also setting up this web site. And now that I see you have another book out I will make sure that I buy a copy. Thank You

Hi Love4all, thank for taking the time to view my website and sharing a part of yourself with me and believe me there is safety here, I know there are times our lives when we wonder what in the world am I doing with and have done with my life. Believe me, I have been there, but in all sincerity, we have to accept that if no one else loves us the way we desire them to or the way we feel we should be loved, we have to love ourselves no matter what, now does loving yourself cure the loneliness you may feel from your relationship and ease your suspicions, no way in hell or on this earth for that matter, but it will take you further than you may think you can go or want to go, in having your children, you owe it to yourself to be happy and you owe it to your children to be happy so they can be happy in the truth that you choose to live, the truth is hard, oh yes it is, but living with no blinders on will help you live a better life, freer life, clearer life, and you can breathe without holding your breath for someone else who may have decided to go his separate way, now i am in no way making light on what you are saying, but please don't get stuck in his life and his choices because when you deal with his truth, it will cause you to see, well yeah this didn't work out like I'd hoped or expected, but for it isn't the last chapter of my life, you have children hello, well do me a favor and purpose in your life to be happy no matter where you are at in life 'cause when you look yourself in the mirror and look into the faces of your children each morning, that is a reason to be happy 'cause in all honesty, neither of you had to wake up, and lastly please don't give your power, strength, and emotions to a man who may no longer desire to be a part of yours, your life is precious, and yes we all walk down roads that are so much in love and some so stupid, i have and sometimes i still do, why, we are human, and in our cases, we are women, balls of fire, balls of emotions, yet cannons of power, strenth, love, never ending sacrifice, knowledge, and you name it, we pretty much have it covered, we have to learn how to forgive ourselves for walking down those so maybe wrong streets, remember that we are not bad women, we simply at times make bad choices, and for me even in my wrong I still look towards God, for only he really knows how to get me out of the webs of life. Please continue to view the website, i have another blog coming out today that i think you should read, i pray you stir up the strength that is already in you, and try to never allow the feelings of man not loving you cause you not to be happy, never lose your power, God didnt give it to you to give away to someone else, and never allow yourself to wake up into someone else's brand new day with an attitude and baggage from years ago and even now (especially your children), and don't allow someone else to do it to you or them. If you need to talk personally give me a call,
