I am losing weight now. I can see it in my face, in my hands, even in my shoes. LOL. My stomach is coming down. With every lb. I feel freer. I feel free. Thank God. I am feeling free.
I used to live with an obligation mind set. I am obligated to because…. NOPE. I am not obligated to because. I do because it is right to do so. I care because I am not made of stone. This is freeing.
I pledged long time ago to give to my community without hesitation, tirelessly, to the point of exhaustion. I now understand due to reading other sights that this is not really a smart move on my part. So from now on, I won’t. It is just tiring and this Strong Black Woman decided about 3 years ago to put that mantle down. NOPE. I am gonna pray and leave it in God’s hands. He handles my life so well, I am sure that it is not neccessary for me to try to solve everything anymore.
This has been so freeing but so mentally exhausting to, this thinking free and doing what is needed to do to get where you want to go. So much of my thinking process is being challenged. And that is OK. It really is.
I am so thankful for the new life I am getting, the new lease on life I am experiencing. Thank God for all of it. Thank God.
