Oh, the wonders of God's work...

Hello ladies and gents. I know I went M.I.A. again, but I haven't left the building just yet. LOL.



So much has happened for me and to me, and I would like to share with my blogger fam. *Wrote a song about it, like to hear it, here it go*



This past weekend of course was Labor Day, and my boys and I went to my dad's and spent the weekend with them to go to The L.A. County Fair, which was absolutely fun. Yes, it was hot as the dickens outside, but all the fam had a blast. But the night before, I got a call from the one man that I was so disgusted with it was ridiculous. He called to talk to the baby, but he and I had spoken and it was a decent conversation. Anyway, he and I had briefly discussed all events that took place between us a few months ago that led to hurt feelings and what not. It was cool. During the course of the weekend, there were some things that were challenging my conscience and finally it brought me to forgiving him. That's right y'all, I FORGAVE.



But let me make something real clear: I didn't forgive for him, I forgave for me. I was so weighed down with anger and resentment to a point where I was on my own job taking calls everyday and in tears at the same time. That's how emotionally bad off I was. I finally did this to get this weight off my shoulders. And when I did, I felt so much better.

Ladies and gents, I think God answered the one prayer I was hoping would be answered. Sure enough he and I would never be together again like we were before, but all that matters to me is the fact he admitted he was wrong, showed remorse and apologized. That was all I ever wanted from him, so that way I could pick up my poor li'l crushed feelings and still keep my dignity in tact (although I felt like the dog doo-doo someone stepped on and smeared on the sidewalk to get off their shoes). All in all, it's better to forgive, but certainly never forget the wrong that has been done to you by someone you regarded most. Don't let stress and foolishness kill you, it's not a good look. There comes a time where you gotta swallow pride and put all b.s. aside and pray to God to help make the tough times alright. I know I did.

Until then,
Peace & Blessings,
