What is it Good fpr?!?!

War, what is it good for?  Well the lyrics to the song say, "absolutely nothing", I don't believe in that personally.  Well, actually it depends on what you are going to war for.  Are you going to war to bring justice to a person that has been wronged?  This is a good reason.  Think about it, there are children in our country who are suffering because the big juggernaut of a medical field will not help ease the child's pain or give them medical attention if their parent is unfortunate enough as not to have any medical insurance.

Another example of going to war would be the reason the President of the United States of America went to war over 10 years ago, for the control over another country's natural resources.  That for me is not a good reason to go to war.  This for me doesn't need any further explanation.  I can think of many other types of war but, I am actually wanting to talk about.  First let me give the definition of war that I am working with.

War--A struggle; a conflict.  So life is not going to be smooth sailing all of the time.  There will be ups and there will be downs.  There will  be trials and tribulations and everyone has a struggle.  In fact, most people have several struggles.  This brings me to war and getting into the conflict. 

I may have written this before I am not sure but the only way to overcome a struggle is to go through it.  That means you have to go to war with whatever has come against you.  You have to put on your battle gear and fight until you have gotten to the other side.  If you don't get into the war then you can't be a winner or a loser.  Because I believe that in God, all things work for the good it may be that you thought you loss the war but you really didn't the win looks differently than you thought it would.
The bottom line is, You have to be in the war in order to get the victory.

Whitney already told you

 Today I just knew that I needed to write a post.  Sometimes I know what I am going to write before I start, and then other times, I'm just winging it. There are plenty of things on my mind and I still don't know what my topic of the day will be. That is until I know what it is going to be. I look at the people in my life every day.  No, not physically but logically and some of the time emotionally. I come to the same realization every time.  First off, there is no such thing as coincidence, in my opinion. I believe that the family you are born into is based on many things, but it is never a mistake.  When you meet your friends, lovers and others, it is for a divine reason.  All things work for the good.  Not some of the time; all of the time. Now let me be clear, two things can and are usually true at the same time.  You can have a happy life and feel joy while still feeling sad over certain situations. The reverse can also be true where in you f...

Cafe Bustelo with a little cream

 I don't even think there is a phrase that describes the feeling that I currently have about my life.  It has been approximately, a year and a half since I have last shared.  The truth is that I have barely even written anything beyond a text message in that time.  For a while I called it writer's block but now, I know that is not a true assessment. The truth is more emotion and far-reaching than that would connote. When last we spoke I believe I was legally ending the worse chapters of my life.  Now, this is not to say that some good times were not had in that more than decade of my life, but the bad times definitely outweighed the good ones.  The lessons were a multitude with nary a time to rest really.  I am good with the knowledge of this at this point.  There has to be bad in order to enjoy the good; the night must fall in order for the sun to rise; there would be no way to turn left if you didn't have the option of turning right.  You g...

True Confession!

I have a confession to make. It's funny because telling a secret or making a confession is a very hard thing yet once it's done that weight has been lifted and you feel a little lighter. That being said confession is just good for the soul. I know that the devil is trying his best to keep me from obtaining my destiny and this confession is getting ready to shame him because he is a liar and he will not kill or destroy me. I am taking back the power I gave him in this situation. I just had a birthday and I turned 36. I love when my birthday comes around. This year was no difference. Actually, it was a lot better than it has been in years. Partially because I spent my day getting to know a new person in my life but mostly because I have been getting to know myself. This is my real-life confession. I didn't begin to feel good about myself until I was in my 30's--I was around 32 actually. I had the most negative self-talk a person could have. My self-esteem and self-imag...
