Part 3

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.

List

As we countdown hours to the end of the year, in every corner there seem to be lists of things that happened this year; they maybe favorite or worsts, or top experiences or things that made history, sha lists. (you get my drift right?). I don't think I have sat down to draw up a 'list' well expect when I was applying for a job and they specifically said give 10 reasons why we should hire you. Yeah that happened. Lol. So I have been thinking, really thinking. A whole lot can happen in a year, emphasis on  'whole lot'. Except you write every detail of what happens daily and not miss a day (I wonder if there are people that are this deep) you are bound to forget some things. The movie 'INSIDE OUT' depicted how our mind works. (If you've seen it; you have an idea of what I'm talking about, if you've not I don't know what you are waiting for) There are too many things that have happened this year for me as an individual, in fact as a...

Sunday Special

FEAR Where can I hide from this scary beast I'm so tired of attending these feasts I have been held bound by your lies  You told me I can't go beyond where I am My whole life I had dreams that would transform the world I saw myself sitting with Kings Dinning with Princes But In reality,all that was on my plate was hate I looked around and saw regret You made me feel comfortable, here on this dinning table Feeding me with stories of how I can't, How I wouldn't be able to! You told me they would laugh at me the moment I opened my mouth to speak That explains why everyone thinks I'm weak I got letters of Invitation from greatness You tore them right before my eyes You took me out once in a while to see your friends,mediocrity, status quo and Impossibility They seemed cool at the time Till I met faith Then I realised my whole life has been a deception All this while I was at the wrong reception Faith took me on a walk and showed me all the things I ...

The SS 4

If you’ve been following these series, you know they started off as a rant, but I decided to be inspiring, (as usual, hehe). If you haven’t (where have you been!) – you can read the Kick Off , Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 . I concluded part 3 saying watch out for myth 3… (still watch out!) ‘I thrive on purpose’, ‘I exist because of purpose’, so what then are the things I should be conscious of during this phase? Literally what lessons should I gather from my singleness? This requires a critical look at Genesis 2: 8-17: 1.       Place: God has a purpose for every place He puts me, He wants me to see, learn something before He can show me the next step. For example; He placed me in my family for a reason. Ironically many (myself inclusive) place ourselves and source for a person or people to validate this place we’ve placed ourselves. Even more sadly, many (myself inclusive) fight the place God has placed us. 2.      Pu...
