PURPOSED FOR DESTINY:KEEP PUSHING FORWARD

There is a constant fight everyday from the moment you wake you to the moment you lay back down again. The fight you tend to have is coming from all directions of your life; However, the greatest of that fight is from within.

You must fight to see the positive, to stay positive, to make a negative situation into an opportunity of growth. This is a world that's full of negativity and there may be a handful who have much positivity to produce in your life.

You must fight to stay afloat to keep the oppressions of words from weighing you down, but more so, the thoughts that are coming from within that screams in your head to give up and quit. These thoughts tell you that what you have is not what they want. You must fight continuously beyond the words that invade your thoughts of you fooling yourself.

It's not easy trying to keep pushing forward through the pains of the pressures of life. It is not easy trying to make sense out of what seemed to look like continue fails. It is definitely not easy when you have more naysayers and without a strong support system.

I can even understand how you may feel as though you may be losing your mind or sense of reality because of the passion within you that has consumed every part of your being is pushing you to an end you cannot see. Therefore, it has to come forward  because you need to know what it will look like. Will it look like the success of what you are feeling on the inside? It has to manifest because you know how much time, energy, sweat, tears, prayers, hopes, and especially sacrifices into that which is bringing you life from within.

That drive that pushes you to look like you have lost your for ever loving mind to your naysayers but yet your passion speaks to you upon rising from bed throughout your day, into laying back down again into the next. This is an ongoing drive of passionate cause that will not let you rest, it eats at your conscious and it speaks to you to let it live.

I understand the magnitude of the hunger from within, and yes it would be all too sweet if the lines of support and genuine friendship was there. Maybe it will make sense once it does manifest but only God knows.

I write this to encourage you from all angles to stay your course, even when you stumble and fall. Even when the distractions come, please do not compromise your purpose out of its position. If you do repent and keep it moving. Don't live in the guilt or condemnation. Keep moving forward. Get back up, wipe yourself and keep moving forward, don't let your baby die. Who else is going to feed it that it may live and manifest?

WEIGHT LOSS: WHAT ARE YOU REALLY LOSING?

People have different reasons why they lose weight. Some people become tired of being overweight and simply make the changes necessary to accomplish their goal of weight loss. Others lose weight because there is either a significant health issue/s attached and losing weight is imperative or they are tired of looking at themselves in the mirror. 

There are various reasons why people lose weight. Another reason why people may lose weight is to become comfortable within their own skin per se. Some people have become so overweight they have problems breathing, sleeping problems, skin problems, moving from one place to another, or simply uncomfortable in their way of living.

 Unfortunately, you have those who lose weight outside their means of control; for example due to cancer (cancer family) or some form of thyroid problem, stress can cause a person to lose a significant amount of weight. The issue with thyroid can also cause you to gain weight. Let’s go back to your child hood moment of having dinner cooked and its not to say your parents way of cooking was wrong, but the discipline of in-taking foods then and now are primary reasons why there are huge weight issues.

 However, what if there was another reason why it is imperative for people to lose weight? A reason that has never been discussed other than weight loss will make you ‘feel’ better. But what if losing weight is correlated with losing a lot of emotional baggage that a person has carried for years. These emotional baggages have caused people to become weighed down in the oppression of depression and deep hurts. 

The weight that has been carried by different individuals is a greater issue emotionally because there may be times where you eat from the drive of an unknown subconscious underlying issue. What if the significance of losing this weight plays an extreme role of truly fulfilling your desired happiness that lies within your control?

 What if the weight that you carry is due from all the hurt and pain, the rejection, the fears, the craving of wanting to be with someone but morally as well as ethically you know you cannot because it’s wrong and now you resort to eating? You don't eat because you are hungry, but for self-satisfaction; often times you become your own sweet little white lie you tell yourself that you are okay but are driven by the pain to eat. 

You tell yourself you are okay but are driven by the hurts to eat. You say you’re okay, however, whatever is going on subconsciously is driving you to take in what isn’t good for you at that moment. Driven to soothe the pain and hurt in some form or another. Driven to soothe the loneliness and aches of not having someone truly there for you. 

There are many people who are driven to drink alcohol, smoke and use drugs mostly because there is an underlying issue of a developed hurt that begun somewhere. You oftentimes have reasons to suppress these underlying issues and for the most part try to suffocate the ‘feeling’ of what was done and how it was done, but it’s never to any avail because it’s rooted and grounded. 

The psyche tells you that you're okay as long as you make these sweet confessions every day, but how often do people stop and really ask themselves, “Why do you drink? Why are you so angry? Why are you really eating? Why do you need to feel that intimacy? Why do you get high? Why do you really justify behaviors that only bring you harm? Why do you justify behaviors that compromise who you are?" 

In closing; losing weight isn’t just a matter of inches turned into pounds. Losing weight is a matter of losing all the emotional baggage, heartaches/abuse (emotional, physical & psychological), seasonal relationships/divorce, negative words that were spoken to your soul; this is accumulated weight gain that need to be addressed and lost. This is the significant weight loss that is necessary to keep you from dying and the opportunity to drive you to use as leverage; to press into the pain and move forward. 

Press into those disappointments and move forward. Press into the negative words and move forward. This weight does not have to weigh upon your present but it can be leverage to catapult you into your future. Let’s lose the weight and build from there a healthier outlook for yourselves. Lose the naysayers and just do it.
