Waking up slowly, she blinked herself to consciousness. Laura, while still on her bed had vivid flashes on her life rushing through her mind. She slowly pulled her self off the bed. " I've been through so much, she thought to herself. I don't know what else to do. nobody seems to understand ." As she knelt down to say her prayers, all she found her self saying was, " God please help me, I don't know what else to do. Have mercy on me and give me the grace to make it through". When we are burdened with the weight of uncertainty and the feeling of being lost because things are not just working out, it becomes more difficult to remain at peace and be focused.

Road to Self Discovery [Part 2]

If you haven't read the part 1 of this post,Here it is  Part 1  . I will just jump right into it. After seeing the number of page views on the Part 1 of this post, it got me excited. We are all very similar ( whether we like to admit it or not); we are seeking for answers, solutions, a way out...

To this I say, " Thank you God for Jesus ", (For those of us who are Christians). I confidently urge you to seek God and surrender without any doubts or reservations to his will. This is your first step to greatness! Here is what I mean...

Work, Life Balance tips

                                            After 2 months of being married, the one thing that i have not had enough of is ' TIME . I find myself still having A LOT to do even after the day is over.  Being a young married woman with dreams, goals and ambition and planning to start a family, it seems impossible to achieve all this and still be sane...Talk about multitasking on overdrive.  Balancing your personal life with work is not the easiest thing to do and it requires more than just 'Luck and Strength' we need HELP, lots of it.

To dive right into why I started this blog. I want to Motivate, encourage and Inspire myself and others based on the word of God. I feel like, that by writing down my journey,  challenges and victories and a few lessons learned, It will be useful to someone else and a constant reminder to me that everything works together for our good. This blog is my way of sharing ideas, revelations and inspiration and hopefully help someone, anyone out there who just needs some kind of support with understanding or a reminder that they are not alone in their struggles and as a result live a content and happy life. I’m not saying I have all the answers, I really just want people with similar struggles or just knowledge seekers to have where they can go for some REAL, HONEST, OPEN talk. There are no rules, no judgments just LOVE!
