D-Xirable Moments!!! (1.6.2021)

 Hello loves,

I really just organized my room a bit and worked today.

I just have a few items of self-care today.

Affirmation #1 from the “I Am” App

Affirmation #2 from the “I Am” App

I started the day with some positive affirmations with the “I Am” app. These two are my favorites so far. I will choose to focus on the positive today and I will not let anxiety defeat me. 

Daily Gratitude from the “Calm” App

Another item of self-care today. Things I’m grateful for using the @calm App - God, Family, and Music.

Self-Care Quote from Katie Reed

This quote is one of the reasons why I think that self-care is so important. I’m trying to work on me so that I can give my best to others, in particularly my family. 

Every moment of self-care allows me to better focus on the things that are important to me.

Hope you enjoyed the post!

With love,

LaTasha B.

Day 72: Do What You Feel in Your Heart to Be Right Art...

Day 32: My Situation Does Not Define Who I Am

If I don't like the situation, change it. 

If I can't change it, then it's beyond my control.

God give me the wisdom to know the difference...
All together, my situation does not define who I am.

Day 27: Six Things to Tell Yourself Today

Day 26: Be Alert and Aware of How You Present Yourself

Another one I have to remember: To be alert and aware of how I present myself.

This is one that I have to work on...

Day 25: Better World = Different People + Wider Lense

A reminder for myself: Better world = different people + wider lense.

Day 22: You Are Stronger Than You Think

Another quote that I have to remember. We are stronger than we think we are. We just have to allow ourselves to believe that we are.

Day 21: Your Past Does Not Define You

It sounds simple enough but it's not. Your past does not define you. Be who you are today. Live in the present. I have to remind myself of this one...

Day 20: New Mantra - Moving Forwards, Not Backwards and Trying to Let Go of the Past

Another new mantra: It's time to move forwards. I'm trying not to look backwards and I'm trying to let go of the past. This is a hard one...

Day 17: Love is Louder than the Pressure to Be Perfect

"Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect."

I love this quote. It reminds me that love is so much more important than the need to be perfect. If someone truly loves you, they will accept you just the way you are. But they will also inspire you to be better and to do better.

Day 16: It's About the Journey and Not the Destination

Again, I've always been in a rush to get to the finish line in life. I've never actually appreciated the journey to get there. It really isn't about the destination at all. Sometimes, you end up in places that you never thought you would be but its all about learning and growing from it. Sometimes breakdowns are actually breakthroughs...

Day 15: New Mantra - One Day at A Time...

I've been adopting the mantra: One day at a time in my life. I've always been looking forwards or looking back. Now, I'm learning to take it one day at a time...

Day 7: Art - Goal of A Butterfly is Transformation

"Goal of a butterfly is transformation."

Day 4: Windows Are Bridges Art!

"Windows are bridges to different realities.

Windows = endless possibilities."

~LB

Day 3: The Human Mind and Flower Art!

"The human mind is much like a flower -- beautiful and fragile.

But still strong.

It can only withstand so much darkness. It needs light and love in order to grow."

D-Xirable Insight and Quote While Being MIA

Sorry my loves for being MIA so long. All my blog entries have been pretty much fluff... until now.

I was MIA for two reasons. One, I had a virus on my computer and two, I needed time to think.

My computer had a virus and even though the virus is gone, the virus has damaged my hard drive. I'm no longer able to upload new pictures. :( Because of this, I've decided to upload an older pic of me and the latest recent pic of me. Also, this will make it harder for me to do blog updates since I like to post pics!

During my break, I had time to think about a lot of things...

The most important thing that I learned though, is that it's important to know who you are and who your real friends are when you go "missing" for a while (the ones that reach out to you while you are gone or as soon as you get back). With that said, I've cleared out unnecessary friends, and I've decided to focus on the ones that matter. I no longer need the "extras", I just need the ones that always have and always will be there for me when I need them. I only need the ones that love me no matter what! :) It's important to have them around, especially when you are transitioning into a new stage of your life! Expectations are hard, even for an "over achiever" college graduate like me. And as long as I have a choice in the matter, I don't want or need unnecessary friends around to watch me if I fail. Life is scary and hard enough on its own, especially when there's no guide or path given to you. But hey,

"Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it." -Harvey MacKay

                                  (An older pic of me)                             (Recent pic of me)

As for now, I'm trying to focus on me and to figure out what to do next with my life. I have an idea of where I want to be in the end, I just need to figure out how to get there! :)

By the way, thanks a TON to all of those that continued to be my "D-Xirables" (followers/readers) while I took my break. It's nice to see who will still be around when you get back! :)

Love always,

LaTasha B.
