Singing

I was talking to a really good friend yesterday and he asked me if I ever had to hit the reset button. Of course I have and many of you have also. My way of hitting the button is taking a walk; just getting up from my desk and taking a walk maybe even engaging in some mindless conversation and then I return ready to finish my task. Some of you may take a smoke break, a potty break, or just sit and day dream. What ever you do make the most out of your reset and put a Thank you Jesus on the end of it.

I woke up this morning ready to sing. I can’t sing but wow am I ready to take center stage and give a show. My momma says that only happy people sing and she is right. The last few days have been hard but today I am singing. I can sing because I was able to get some things off my mind and chest and now I can rest. If you stand up for yourself you will fall for nothing. I had to have both of my parents give a “you a champ” speech to make me realize that I was not raised to walk with my tail between my legs and surrender defeat. I am a strong person by blood-line so act like it. Yes, my mom and dad gave me the same advice so I had to take it because that doesn’t happen often. I was walking around with self-doubt not recognizing my worth but today I am singing and right now Mary J. Blige’s “Be Happy” is number one on my play list.
