Celebrate Abundance...



 As the year comes to an end, I find time to reflect on the people I have met, places I've gone, messaged and experiences learned.

 A few weeks back, I was in the hair salon late which is cool because it gives me a chance to mingle with the clients that I miss during my weekly visit/pop-ins. We have a new shampoo guy that is awesome!! I promise you, men know how to wash a woman's head ~~WHEW.... Anyhoo, focused!!! lol

Once we get towards the end of the night, we start sharing inner most fears and secrets. Celso( his name) began to share and this is what he shared( in his Virgin Island accent)" You know, I was out of work for years. You could come to me, tell me you're looking for a job, I help you to re-write your resume and you'd get the job. Still while I had nothing".. I helped friends get all types of jobs and never did I once get mad about me not finding a job. I questioned God but was never mad. Then it hit me one day, I was looking better now than I did when I was working. My bills never went unpaid, I stayed looking nice, I always had a roof over my head and food to eat. " I was blessed"!!

For some reason, that stuck with me.

Yesterday, I was sitting in my bathroom aka: Study, Office, Quiet Space, Hideout and I happen to look above my towel rack. And there was this decorative wall piece I purchased when I first moved to Atl 3 years ago. It simply states" Celebrate Abundance".. I pondered on it ALL day.. Even in my moments where I feel like the world is against me, I have Abundance.  I have people who pray for ME instead of against ME: Abundance
My children are blessed, they never go without : Abundance
My business has been blessed 10times over: Abundance

May not have the money I want or the life I'm building towards YET but I have the life I have now and I Celebrate it because I'm Blessed!!

I challenge my readers on today, to find reasons that call for you to Celebrate Abundance!!

Signed,
I'm On MY way; Abundantly Blessed

  1. I totally agree, sis!! I may not have everything I WANT but God supplies everything I need!! During my daily (sometimes hourly) prayer, I constantly say "Lord, I thank you!" Great piece...
