My Bitter Lemonade

The old saying goes " when life gives you lemons .... Make lemonade". My life seems to give me a plethora of ish that I can't combine to make anything good out of. It is like going to the pantry and having peanut butter and not bread ... Or having milk and no cereal .
Everyday is an ongoing struggle for me to press on and accept the fact that HEY this is what being an adult is all about. I just had my life spared from what could have been a near fatal crash (pictures below) to come to find out that my finances are not straight that my plans I had have to take an immediate detour and I'm just stuck like a duck in the mud.
I did something today that I need to be forgiven for... And that is to be ungrateful to God for his mercy and grace he has placed on my life ... He spared me which he did not have to do and here I am 2 days later letting all the pressures of my life weighing me down stating I should have just died on Saturday....... PAUSE ... Did I really just say that?
The burdens in life are there for a reason ... I know alll too well about dealing with the burdens and trials and tribulations of road blocks on the way to u life fulfillment... But just like in countless stories in the Bible where God had to test his people to build them up and make them strong and also to see how worthy they were to receive the blessings He had for them.... They NEVER complained ...
So its almost like I spoke curses onto God for blessing me with another day to live and breath and make right alllllll the wrongs... I take that back because that was not what I feel in my heart... What I do know is I have a greater purpose in life then I could ever imagine but God knows it and He is building me up and strengthening me for what is to come... For my destiny. So I hope that God will not forsake me or count my slip of the tongue during my emotional state against me.. For He knows my heart and yours too.. Confess with your tongue and it shall be.... LOVE LIVE LAUGH

Blessed to Be Here.... without a car!

Life is crazy ... Saturday August 14 was supposed to be a great day... I had just spent the whole day with my best friends family. They are awesome, my best friends family, we all spent Friday celebrating her mothers accomplishment of graduating from Graduate School. We were to get up on Saturday and get on the road to Memphis, 3 hours away to go see Trey Songz live in concert at the Orpheum.
Now let me be the one to say I LOVVVVVEEEEEE TREY SONGZ, I had beencountdown all month for the 15th to come. We spent a nice lil penny onthe tickets too but it didn't matter because Trey Songz is fine and Ilove his music.
But on the way from nashville to memphis it began to rain and my carhydroplaned and veered into traffic... We crashed into a railing on the highway and then we were hit by a car and then hit again by an 18 wheeler. My best friend and I were able to walk out of the car with just a few scratches, bumps and bruises. WE ARE TRULY BLESSED. Wesurvived a crash that many people would not have survived.. My car is TOTALED ... My first car GONE... But I'm counting my blessings becauseI was able to walk out of my car and look at it and see how bad it could have been... I SURVIVED... And I know now that God has a greater plan for my life and that I have not fulfilled my destiny on this here Earth... I am overjoyed and truly blessed to have what I like to think as a second chance in life to get going back down the right path....So count your blessings yall life is too short reach out and tell someone you love them help a friend in need.... Set some goals and work diligently to achieve them everyday... MAKE A DIFFERENCE ... LOVE LIVE LAUGH
