Deuces to the Decade! Cheers to 2020 & beyond! #ItsMyTime!

We all have it....that extra pocket just below our button that is resembling a tire. I call that my BellyBag. It's my spare bag of negative emotions and I've carried it around for almost 6 years. Pre-whitedress situation - my bag was smaller, lighter. Post-whitedress situation - well let's just say this puppy is heavy. In 2020, maybe a bit before, I'm tossing it out. I'm saying goodbye to my anger, betrayal, hurt, untrusting, negative behavior. I'm throwing my #Bellybag in the trash. Join me!

Anger, hurt, rejection, animosity, bitterness, sadness...these are all natural poisons affecting our bodies and minds. Every time we cling to the poisons, we allow our personal trashcan to fill up. This weakens the soul. It's time to take out your trash!

Nothing in life is free. A quick poetic moment for ya.

#DomesticViolence IS your business. FACT: every year, over 10 Million people (women AND men) are subjected to domestic violence. It's an #epidemic affecting ALL of us. FACT: 85% of domestic violence victims are female, and 15% are male. FACT: Roughly 5 million children are exposed to domestic violence every year.

There's no such thing as an ex-addict/alcoholic...all it takes is one bad day...

Acronymese: the new language to decipher.

People will tell you that "you can't because historically" or "because tests say", or because "you're not supposed to"...

For individuals to grow through life, we must shed the holds and bindings that restrict us - be they experiences, people, or memories.

Setbacks uncover true persons in the end.
