~~ BEEN A LONG TIME COMIN' ~~


~~A FRIEND REFERRED A FRIEND~~


I haven't had alot of possitive inspiration as of late, so it's been awhile since my last blog entry.. please forgive a growing old soul.                                       


but i wanted to share with you this kinda crazy week of enlightment.

 i was feelin' kinda down and  i was singin' blues to my friend Tina when she said " you need to talk to my friend "Ray".  so we did the phone etiquette thing and i called Ray..

She is a  very very loving soul.

 She helped with a little lesson. that the more i talk to myself the more i grow emotionaly. i have to literally say encouraging things in my mind to allow myself to grow in the spirit. 

 I am learning that this actual process is difficult...

I am very surprised. I have always counted myself as a person with focused thoughts... but i have begun to realize that my focused thoughts are all about others not about me.  intern, i have found myself longing for something that i have been expecting someone, some person to fill. something i can touch. something tangable for years. 

So i pose the questions to my own mind.....is it wrong to think of one's self first ? is thinking of one's self first selfish?  if i always think of others before myself is this selfsacrafice?

as you and i can tell this staying focused on self is difficult for me.....

and this lesson continues.....

Dear Ms Cherry:
I have missed seeing your blog and Mama's quotes.  I am glad you are back and I must say that I can relate to what you are saying for being a "giver" in life and letting your own needs wait has been my way also.  I have subsequently learned that if I don't take time for myself even if in a small way those I want to help lose also.  So we are here to learn to love...and we must start learning to love ourselves before we can love others completely I believe.  I am sending you energy to surround you and pray your journey will bring you joy.

Rosie
