Women especially mothers, have it tough. We have for centuries done what most have deemed impossible. But through it all we have overcome and overthrown, we have made it through the fire in so many different ways. As a working mom, I find it hard to keep it all together, being pulled in so many different directions, at times it can be very overwhelming. The mistake that I usually always make is that I never take time to pour into myself. Would you like to know what helped me start to pour into me, I’ll tell you the power of NO! Yes you read it right NO, I can’t make it today, NO! I wont stop doing what I’m doing because you didn’t remember you had something to do. I am no longer the mom to drop everything for my kids It's one of the most unhealthiest things you can do, not only for you but, you are doing your child a disservice in the future. I need that me time that relaxing moment to bask in the sun and collect my thoughts or not even think at all. In the past I felt guilty about taking a second to do anything for myself, especially if it meant taking away from others who needed me. I had to realize that I need a moment for me. I had to realize that I’m so much more than the titles that I carry, mother, daughter, wife, friend, sister, aunt. I am ME! first. I need to be me before all of those other titles. I have to be Me! I am a garden of so many different flowers, and each flower has to be watered to continue to flourish and grow. In honor of all women this month and every month,
I want to encourage you to take time and pour into yourself, pour into your dreams, pour into your life, pour into your goals and most importantly pour into yourself. Let it overflow with happiness, peace, self love, forgiveness, and everything your heart desires.
Miracles & Blessings, My Beautiful Souls.
MAY IS MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH.
