The Month of LOVE

This month is sponsored by LOVE! Valentine’s Day is approaching and love is definitely in the air! Most think this month should be focused on loving someone else solely.  Truth is, focus on loving yourself and showing yourself that you are worthy.  Everyone is unique in their own way.  The world is not made up of black and white, but very diverse.  Just think how boring the world would be if all we seen were the same things.  God created us all different for a reason.  We all have a purpose in life to fulfill.  If everyone was doing the same thing nothing would get accomplished right?  Being yourself is exactly what God intended for you to be.  Give your self enough credit and validation to believe that being you is normal and perfectly fine.  Being you consist of the containing the full capacity of having your own mind.

Having your own mind means that you are not easily persuaded or influenced.  People are going to do different things, some things you may not agree with and have the freedom not to conform to those things.  Just because you see people doing the same things, does not scream for you to do those things as well.  Don’t be afraid to be different even if that means being the “odd” ball in the bunch, whatever that means!  People are pressured into thinking they have to mold or conform to the ways of society, when that is not true at all.  When you “fall out of line” people are going to think you are weird, strange, funny-acting, however they want to put it, but none of that matters.  At the end of the day you have to trust in yourself enough to know that their opinions don’t matter and you will have your own respect for yourself.  When you love yourself, you make room and open the door of being able to love someone else.  Show love in everything that you do.  Love is what makes the world go ’round!  This is the shortest month of the year, so make it your best by showing all the love possible!
