Here are Part 1 and Part 2

Part 3:Relationships

Most times the term 'relationship' is associated with dating; (layman terms 'going out') not that its not part of the definition.- A sexual or romantic involvement.
Relationship can mean being related by blood or a way in which two or more people behave and are involved with each other.

I guess my focus on this post is friendship (which can lead to romantic involvement, how many people aren't 'friends' and are 'dating?'. My opinion is that the starting point is friendship. I believe that relationships which start out with friendships are the best and actually last longer. (not some mediocre type of friendship oh biko. lol)

Some people are in very toxic relationships; Tyrese type of situation 'every time I try to leave something keeps pulling me back' hehe
Proverbs 4:23 according to the Message says "keep vigilant watch over your heart; that's where life starts" simply says don't just let anyone mess with your emotions; be they platonic or romantic

Some have actually tried to get out, and like Nathaniel sang 'its not by power or by might'. Some of them might even be under a spell and not even know. 

I remember some time ago I was "heart broken" lol, I was very sad, I even think that was my Gothic/emo phase *covers face*. Anyways I remember praying one afternoon, (like I was talking to my friend) and I said "I'm tired of feeling this way, please just take away my hurt Lord Jesus", to be honest I would be lying if I said immediately I felt lighter lol, it took a while (probably like 3 weeks). Like the saying "time heals" I added "Jesus heals" = Jesus and Time Heals. 

If you are honest with yourself, you'll know when you are in a toxic relationship. Just take that relationship to God. Whether its a good or toxic relationship He's interested.
God bless you.

With love, theInspiredCutiee 

See you next Tuesday for the final part.

Short story type of day

By
I wrote this while I was in church (please don't judge me , it just popped in my mind and I began to write) She felt something slowly tickle her face, she ignored it the first and second time, then it began to move more rapidly than before. She woke up in a startle, disoriented and wondered what could have been causing this, it felt like it was on her face, she touched her face and it was wet, 'what's this?' she asked herself because it was dark. She quickly jumped up and flicked the switch on.. She screamed when she saw it was blood! The small dark spot on her pillow and on her nightie (when she sat up) were both evidence that she was bleeding from her nose. 'No, no not again' she cried. 'This can't be happening again' she said! Then she quickly remembered she was to tilt her head up whenever her nose began to bleed, she tilted her head and waited a couple of minutes but it didn't stop. She began to panic because she was loosin...

The Halo Effect

By
Are you exhibiting the halo effect? Do you buy products because of the celebrity representing it? Or stay in a relationship that is wrong because of one good quality? We are all attracted to people all the time. What attracts us to others? And what attracts you? When you meet someone for the first time you draw a conclusion about them, subconsciously you decide whether you like them or not. BUT is it possible that one trait or aspect of one's character can influence your perception about them? Honestly, I judge a person's character based on their physical appearance, its a quick judgment that is very likely inaccurate. The good thing is that once I begin to have a conversation, I realize there's more to the person than just physical looks. (Well that's for those that are actually more than their looks). The halo effect can cloud our judgment even when we know about it. When one good quality spills its appeal unto other elements of a per...
