Who Detached Us
I talk A LOT. I talk to strangers, my friends, my friend’s friends. I enjoy human contact and exchanging ideas. I’m private but an Opyn Book at the same time. If my experience can help you, I’m sharing it. I tell a lot of my business, but I keep EVERYONE else’s business to myself. I barely repeat their secrets to them. An ex actually assumed I was sneaky because when I tell a story I don’t include names. Lol, I simply be minding my business and it is one of my healthiest traits might I add. Plus my people trusted me with their information and I respect that. I love these people and I’m overly protective of everything and everybody I love. I am not letting anyone that doesn’t love them examine their situation.
People will form their own opinions based only on their life experiences and their capacity without all the details and that doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. What else is starting not to make sense is why am I so protective over my loved ones but not my own business?
In a perfect world you could share your joy and spread it around like glitter. It would stick, sparkle, and make everyone smile. Thing is some people don’t like glitter. You know how people say don’t speak on things before it’s finished, people will pray on your downfall? I’ve always been quick to say I know a man named Jesus so what is for me can’t be taken away or some similar proclamation about not hiding and sharing is caring. Although all of that is true it’s time to be more selective. As I am digging into my relationship with God and stepping out on faith, I noticed people have their own ideas and limits. Faith looks different to everyone and stepping out on it is easier said than done. But why??? Who detached us from greatness???
As children we have zero fears, we try everything, ask for everything, and believe we will get it and conquer it all. Where the heck did our kid faith disappear to!?! I think as adults we focus on the wrong things. As children, we know everything is provided to us, our parents protect us and keep us safe so we’re fearless. Surprise y’all, same goes for us as adults. Our father protects us and provides for us therefore there is nothing to fear when we stay focused on Him.
The definition of faith is confidence in a person or thing. Similar to our self-confidence, the environment we live in can affect our faith level in a person or thing. Think about that. If you share your vision with someone and they tell you all the reasons it won’t work, even if you don’t agree, their contradicting ideas have been deposited onto you. It’s like an objection in court, yeah the judge sustains it and the jury should disregard the information they heard but they’ve already digested it. Or like an insult, an apology is cool but not insulting me feels way better, lol. Our subconscious is a vivid place. The same way inspiration floats around discouragement and doubt can too. I told someone a few days ago I didn’t want an opinion, then shared a move I was making because I was so excited about it, and they said I know what you said but I think you should wait. Lol, NO!
I just shared a move EYE am making; zero questions were posed therefore I’m not receiving that but here I am talking about it days later. That’s no bueno! I feel like if I’m not getting hurt let me live, you know. The thing is some people simply cannot. It’s not even their job; protecting my ear gates, my life, is all entirely up to me. It’s MY life therefore to correct a thing I can only change MYSELF; so now I’m talking way less and writing way more. It’s my responsibility to keep my faith in the things I KNOW God is doing. How silly to be more protective of others than myself.
We cannot welcome doubt and pretend it doesn’t affect us. We must feed our faith. We must reattach to knowing that all things are possible. We cannot digest fearful thinking. That limits us and puts our focus on the how instead of the why. How is not our job. We only need to take steps. One step at a time, placing one foot in front of the other, and not turn back. We got this and God has us! #SincerelyJamara💋
