New Year's Resolutions

Image
Good morning Coffee Lovers, Did you miss me? Today is the day. New Year's Eve! Are you ready? I am pretty sure most of the world made their New Year's Resolutions. I must admit I only did it once but I don’t believe in making resolutions. Why you ask? Well, I just feel it's too overwhelming to keep these promises. What if what you wanted to happen, does not go your way? Then we get sad or even depressed and feel like we failed ourselves. I believe we are not promised tomorrow so we do what we can and not feel as though it was a job and more like an award for even doing the little things in life. Some people don’t have the luxury to even think about having a new resolution. Now let me tell you that if you have one and you are strong enough and ready enough to make it happen for the new year please do so. I am rooting for you 100%. Just know if for some reason it does not happen as you wish it's ok. Be happy that you are alive and made it through the night and...

"I'm fine"

Hello Coffee Lovers, Have you ever answered a person when they ask "Are you OK?". If you are anything like me your answer is the same "I'm fine." It's our go-to when you don't want people to know or just not ready to talk about it yet. The big thing is that you don't want anyone else to worry about your problems, but we do want them to care. Sometimes our "LITTLE" problems feel unnecessary to talk about to others because many people have bigger issues. Most humans repress feelings into a little box in the back of our minds. Let me just tell you it can happen to adults but more and more children are doing the same. Is it from learning off their parents on how they act or is it a gene from the bloodline? I'm not sure. We all have something that really takes us down emotionally and physically. Some more than others. knowing depression runs fast and hard. You just want to crawl in your bed and cry and not eat or even avoid p...

Do you know who you are?

Hello, my Coffee Lovers, Today I wanted to talk about what our minds and heart says against what we really do. Here is some stuff about me that many don't know but I am good at many things. Yet I only want to be a writer. I can bake pretty well too. I can Cook, I guess I got that from my father and I can hold some notes in singing depending on the song I am what they call an alto. My coworker asked me why am I working where I am working that I am good at singing even though he can tell I'm nervous at singing. I guess what I wonder who I am as a person, who I ever wanted to be was a writer. It happened when I was young, believe it or not even as a kid I was shy and well not as well-spoken as I am today. My teacher told me "I get it you don't want to talk to me or talk to these other students but here is a piece of paper and a pen, talk to that." Ever since then I knew my calling. I will admit that being able to be good at so much feels good but I know wh...

The struggling Mom

Image
Good evening my coffee Lovers, The last two days I have been dealing with my son and his tooth issue that should have been fixed along time ago but no Dentist wanted to touch him. It is because he is very scared of pain and the dentist. I have been to an ER last night and today went to my dentist and they couldn't help him. I also called three different dentists and they said no because of insurance. My son's teeth had to be fixed like a year ago. I feel so overwhelmed and emotional because as a mom all I want to do is make sure my boy is fine. He is finally eight years old and he has a bit more encouragement then he did before so I am trying to make sure he gets over many roller coasters and this one is a big one. As a parent,we have too many struggles whether its money, discipline even bullying. I have been through that allot with my older boy. That was a big struggle that will be for another day. I know many parents have their own struggles and it is so hard to ...

Expectations

Good Morning my coffee Lovers, I want to take this day to talk about expectations. We all have them but can we be taking our expectations a little to far these days? I know for sure I am somewhat the same when it comes to expectations. I am here drinking a coffee from home expecting it to taste like ones in Starbucks or Dunkin and when it does not turn out that way I get discouraged. We all expect the best and feel as we deserve the best. Am I saying its a bad thing course, of course not but can this world be taking it just a tad to far? I saw a person who went food shopping and yet she had a cart full of groceries expected the clerk not only to take out her grocery out of the cart while she talked on the phone but also expected her to put in her bank card which it was on her side where she stood. It's bad enough she had to also bag her groceries up. That's where I feel expectations get the best of us. Did we forget how to be human beings? I am pretty sure we showe...
