You know what would have been really nice to have growing up? Having a confidant I could talk to whom 'I' knew but was a complete stranger to everyone that 'I' knew. Someone who couldn't be influenced by any of my connections; someone who could tell me like it is (with thoughtful delivery) without sugarcoating; someone who could offer a different perspective to my limiting beliefs. Someone who would accept me as I come because they know nothing else. Someone who could see me through conversation; see the things I pride myself of; see my love language; see the kinds of things I'm grateful for; someone who might be able to see me without envy, jealousy, or judgement.

As a matter of fact, I could have used someone like that up until I met my husband. I was once like many - looking for a little grace.

But now, I'm doing A-ok and I want you to be A-ok too. ... How 'are' you doing? Tell me, I'm listening.

Sometimes, what prevents you from getting past things is simply acceptance. Accepting a truth; accepting that sometimes there are limits, accepting your responsibility in something, and the act of forgiveness; not forgiveness that others command, or others can see or hear as proof, but forgiveness that means something to 'you' be it in action or in your mind or heart for your own sanity. Don't ever feel forced to prove forgiveness. Just forgive in your own way and then let it be. Keep the peace. That doesn't hurt 'anyone'.

A cage... Any cage is meant to keep you; to hold you back. A cage can be anything. It can be a thought, a group, a person, family, a job, an addiction, mindset, a tradition, a belief... If the cage is keeping you; holding you back; not allowing you to spread your wings and grow into a better you, when will you ever touch that beautiful sky?

I taught myself how to invest in the stock market in the early 2000's; a long and very complicated learning experience that takes rigorous and creative study but I did it nonetheless.

Truthfully, I was hyper independent, a bit prideful, and (grateful) but really exhausted of receiving support from my daughters grandparents on her fathers side (along with judgement and criticism), and my daughters biological father was absolutely no help. I'd barely call him a father rather he was a visitor in her life if even that (when he wasn't physically or mentally abusing me or terrorizing me), and every time there was a Family Court hearing, he'd make some excuse about how he couldn't pay, so each visit lowered the child support payment more and more from the original amount, then even $20.00 all the way down to $2.00/month. NOT. WORTH. IT.

Anyhow, I got tired of struggling and thought investing would be a positive step and help me get through my struggle. A little win here. A little win there. I couldn't complain. My goal was to keep us afloat but mostly keep my daughter clean, physically healthy, and especially mentally healthy. That's all that mattered to me; rather MATTERS to me.

Have you ever been a momma in hardship trying to make it through the struggle to maintain your home, your babies, and their care? How did you do it? Let's talk about it.

My daughter turned 10 years old this year. If you have a daughter, you know that navigating a young ladies life has a lot of twists and turns, a lot of emotions and discovery, but especially a lot of needs and wants. Luckily, she's quite a bit more mature than the average young lady (considering her early years she was raised by myself, a single mom, doing my best to provide and to teach her the most so that she can help me help her have all the things she needed - spiritually and mentally). She is a big girl now. A big girl in the double digits, and she has so much family now that loves her, protects her, but also wants her to grow up. (I cannot thank God enough for the family we have 'now' who love her to no end.)

This year after outgrowing her tablet, her newfound school friendships, and an ever growing distance between myself and the other side of her family, my husband and I discussed and collaborated, and finally allowed her to have a phone. Yes, at 10 years old. No, not without MANY restrictions.
* Parent assigned password
* Parent permitted contacts
* Parent permitted applications
* Parent monitored texts
** Complete Parental Control

Here's the thing, (don't tell her I said this...)
Maybe she does not clean her room regularly. Maybe she's not up to par on chores and responsibilities, and maybe she's only 10 years old, but for a long time it was her who was keeping me together. For a long time, she was kissing my boo-boos and giving me hugs, love and kisses, and telling me that she loves me and that it would be alright. Though it was I who instilled that in her, it confirms that all this time she had been watching, listening, paying attention, and filling voids that she did not create. That's a maturity that only comes from a little more on the shoulders; a slightly faster growth, and a hyper independent parent.

Now, to get her to do some dishes and throw some trash. We're working on that.

Were you the 1st one to connect your baby(s) to the rest of the world? How did you do that and how did you feel about it? It's quite a big step. Or could that be something you are going through now? Let's talk about it?

I ADORE my husband. I spent so many years trying to find someone solid to build with. I'm not talking superficially. I'm not talking about building a home, or a pool, or a bank account. I'm talking about someone to build a life with. Someone to create family with, someone I could invest in who would also invest in me. Again, I'm not talking about money or things. Someone who would invest their trust in me. Someone who would invest their knowledge and wisdom in me. Someone who would invest their love in me. Here's the thing, most people who know me really don't know me at all.

The person they meet outside of my home is tough but tolerable, a good conversationalist, a hospitable host, but the person I really am is intuitive, protective, and analytical. I am always open to different perspectives. I am by no means closed minded. I have my character flaws as we all do, but I don't let those flaws stop me from being a kind person.

Can you pinpoint something of value that you have spent much time trying to find or accomplish in your personal experience that maybe you have achieved or are working on and need support with? Let's talk about it.

People have bullied me, gossiped about me, brought up my adulthood adventures, my less than favorable childhood styles, and any other thing that they felt necessary to make themselves seem better in some way or another. I'm not immune to people being sarcastic at my expense or people trying to make themselves look funny, or cute, or better than me for whatever reason. If someone wants to make themselves look foolish, I just don't care about it. I constantly disconnect from people who cross a line with me. Why should I be connected to someone who doesn't value me? It doesn't matter if they are family or extended family or friends or best friends. There are some things that should just not be done, and that includes devaluing someone who loves you - who you otherwise love for a moment of power.

Have you been a subject of someone else's insecurity? Someone else's jealousy? Someone else's envy (a very real thing)? How did you get through it? Let's talk about it. I'm listening.

I remember all the times that I told God that if he was going to send me a partner, for him to send me someone that was WAY stronger than me. I mean, s-t-r-o-n-g. There are so many characteristics of mine that someone who is much stronger than me can actually handle.
- Grew up in a very low income home
- Raised in strict environment
- Super hyper independent
- Used to living in survival mode
- Sometimes Insecure
- Sometimes needy
- Sometimes and overthinker
- **I can go on...
It wasn't until my husband found me and truly loved me and made a safe space for me that I started to let go, to trust, to receive... He deals with all of my faults and broke down all of my walls and still loves me. In all of my love, in all of my independence, after all of my deepest, darkest, survival phases he has been my one constant cup of love and refuge from the world. He did not just take in a single mom with a daughter but he also took in everything that's ever happened to us including family drama. I honor my husband. He probably has the hardest job of all - Me.

What do you think of when you think of the best partner for you? Are they in your life already? Are you looking for them right now? Tell me about.
