You Really Should...?! The Season of walking alone with God... Only "He Knows"  "You Really Should...?!" Who Do We Allow to Speak into our Life? Have we considered...what there life represents?! No One Has all the Answers...even here I share a Perspective from the Journey that I'm Walking. "Not Answers" ...A Perspective You Really Should...?! You, I, We... Really Should Consider, who speaks into our life, we should consider what we "allow" to resonate, to reside into our hearts... My Perspective, I don't know or have all the answers, I live "Exercising" my Truth, "An Exercise" drawing from, living on My Truth, on my Faith...to Simplify...Living on "What I'm Willing to Die On" that determines my truth. What Truth are we Willing to Die On... I live on what I've experienced "first-hand" not just what I've read, or what "they", or "he" or "she" said on what "I'm Willing to Die On" You Really Should... My Journey is so much more than me...the subject of "ME" is extremely boring, extremely limited, my heart is filled with...that someone who can't see there way out of a dark room...to know someone gets it..to consider...there can be more, there can be someone "who lives in" someone who can understand the gravity, the weight of pain...that "exercises" walking through, not mastered, walking through...that is "fulfilling" for me. You Really Should... My Resume is pointless... Who really cares, I'm walking in...taking what tried to steal my joy, my son's lives and generations to follow, pain that tried to take our focus, our hope, our future Taking "All of it" every single moment and making "The Pain Pay Dividends..." Pain Owes Me Not because I don't understand Loss Because it tried to 'Rob" my sons...that makes it personal So How Can it Pay... When my Eagle Call is Answered When Lives are Changed My Name in "parenthesis" is not needed You Really Should... Live Full Live in Your Truth Live in What You're Willing To Die On You Really Should... We should be respectful of who speaks into our lives, of who has something to say In the Name of Love and With Good Intent Then You, I, We have to decide what is an asset We have to decide to keep our Focus We have to decide what to take from the buffet table set before us We Really Should... Thank You for being Here Thank You for Sharing Thank You for Caring Thank You for Wearing, Sharing, Surrounding Your Life with this Eagle Call You Really Should  We have to walk some of this Journey "Alone" "Choosing" to live each day on What we're Willing to Die On... Victim is Not My Name My Name is Donyale #MakingGratitudeContagious is always my intent

 Keep Your Focus Emotions Don't Determine the Distance Photos and Posts Don't Defined the Truth There is Always a Story Behind a Smile  Keep Your Focus Embrace "Your" Journey Don't Get Distracted by What is on the Right or On the Left  Keep Your Focus "MGC"
#MakingGratitudeContagious is Always the Intent  Love these words... "We Can't Direct the Wind, but We Can Adjust the Sails" From that thoughts flow and reflecting on... "As a Man Thinketh in his heart, so is he" Proverbs 23:7 "...but be transformed by the renewing of your mind..." Romans 12:2 It takes the same energy to address challenges, distractions, pursuits etc and the change, the effort is not determined by how "we feel" emotions are very unstable. When you can "feed your perspective", when your work is within. Like a seed what is inside will grow and it is not limited, it can expand and become stronger and no matter the winds, the storm, the disruptions, the thoughts that battle your peace, "living inside out" is the muscle and it can outrun external things around you. How?! Not an answer, a perspective for you to consider, to mode to your own journey Consider, if a rock is blocking your way, your perspective, your focus goes beyond the rock, it will even consider what can be learned about the rock and the focus will see the areas around the rock and even more what can be done with the rock on your present day journey and even shared with others traveling with you or coming up behind. It is not the Wind It is not the Storm It is not the Distractions Is is not the Thoughts that come to weigh you down, to whisper defeat It is the Adjusting of the Sails It is feeding, overeating on the words, the media that empowers your perspective In those places you find solutions IN those places even without having an answer...You Have Peace Peace allows us to hear, to see, to know, to find Solutions To take what is in our hand and to see the Value of that To Recognize what is priceless "We Can't Direct the Wind but We Can Adjust the Sails"  #MakingGratitudeContagious is always the intent
 Making Gratitude Contagious is always the intent   In An Instant Blueprints are torn up, plans are changed, in fact, the route, the journey, the path is not only unknown, but it is also no longer familiar. The view has changed… In An Instant What was stable, secure, known is now a question mark. The work is necessary for all areas and for me, that included my core, my center, my faith, my Creator For me, Faith has been my anchor, not by what I read, or heard about, but by Firsthand Experience. My Creator, God is a Father, a relationship and I’ve always known there are Hills and Valleys along life’s journey, I’ve walked my share of both. With all I’ve known and know, I didn’t know…This Gravity of a Storm was allowed… Trust becomes a question... In An Instant When Life is Disrupted The door is kicked in Things are thrown around You find your “core” you find out the strength of your muscles physically, mentally and spiritually...not because you were looking to find out….not an option the moment chooses you In An Instant This is on the heels of a “Tragic” loss of Kobe Bryant and his daughter and all the family members...my family knows firsthand the “Ripple” effect. My Heart, my Thoughts and Prayers go out to these families. In An Instant My family is more than my household, it runs 7 levels deep and wide...A Ripple effect that present-day continues to travel in numerous households, numerous families and friends In An Instant So much more than what you “possess” it is a connection that is “ripped” from your life In An instant I often share my Heart is Tattooed forever, true statement, life continues the same as it should with scars, heart tattoos but it is the cycle of life. Tattooed hearts, tears in celebration. Thank God for Faith, hope beyond a Grave. ”In An Instant” The subtitle of every page written along my journey is “No One Promise Me Tomorrow Will Look the Same As Today” it doesn’t mean I’m not attached to emotions, to thoughts, it means that the Wisdom of That, is that I live with Intent in moments Standing on my Truth, continuing to seek Wisdom from my Creator In An Instant That Truth…  “No One Promised Us that Tomorrow will look the Same as Today” allows the decisions in a moment, determines the Words Spoken, determines the actions, it determines the Decision in the Moment. In An Instant Why does sharing fulfill me because I experienced “Choice”, I experience choosing to Love, to share Laughter, to give Space when needed and Yes, Life was Altered in an Instant which tattooed my heart but I lived full, I lived Gratitude and because of that I robbed the thief named Regret…and that is the Gift I want to share, the power that, robbing the Thief, making Pain Pay Dividends, Soaring "daily work and exercise" above the storm. A gift That I want many to experience I want “us” to live accountable, not pointing fingers I want us to Love I want us to Confront issues "we" all have in our lives, personal work I want us to Know our Truth I want us to Speak our Heart I want us to Live with and operating with others with Gratitude So When Life “Shifts” not If, but when we will fill the gravity of the Chair Removed Space no longer occupied But We In An Instant Will Add a Tattoo to our Heart Not a Weight Not a Regret In An Instant We will walk into the Next Chapter Looking around and asking...How Can I be of Service on the pages to be written in our lives How Can I take “In An Instant” And fill it with Being the Change Our Life being used as a Seed into the lives of many Not the Same for all of us Not a Platform Not a Stage A Seed Planted everywhere our daily travel takes us In An Instant Shake Awake, participate in moments, participate in making others smile, deliver Peace in the room that you enter… The Work is within Within spills out into what surrounds you That is the Priceless Commodity In An Instant Decide To Live Inside Out #MakingGratitudeContagious is always the Intent Thank you for being here Thank you for sharing Thank you for Traveling this Unfamiliar  |
