  "Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!"  ~ Dr. Seuss Growing up, playing dress up was always fun. However, as you a woman, wife, mother, you are still playing dress. You go to The Masquerade Ball. The mask is used to cover up who we are.

The K.I.S.S. ~ What is the "One Thing" you are masking? You may have multiple "things"; however you are focusing on the "one thing".

You are beautiful being the truer than true, who is you-er than you! Come to The Celebration Ball.  Your Best Selfie Meal Plan Would love to hear what you are working on.

"Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated." ~ Confucius What does your love reflect? Are you filling your love with "stuff" like the clutter and chaos that gather in your kitchen?  It's so easy to fill our life thinking we are acting in love with activities, clubs, work, bills, grocery shopping, gifts, hoursehold duties, dance, sports league, PTO, reading club, etc.). We think we are loving with all this busy "stuff" giving them what they want, yet it's all with strings attached. It's almost as if we are afraid to have a void. An empty space means we are not loved. I'm not busy enough. Again, what does your love reflect? Look at your life. Look at your kitchen. Look at your love. What does it reflect? Do you give expecting something in return? Do you gaive expecting nothing? This is sacrificial love, unconditional love. Giving because you can. The K.I.S.S. ~ Be Intentional with Sacrificial Love! When you love, who are you serving? When you love, how are you giving? When you love, what

Are you struggling with chaos? Too much clutter; so much to do. Not enough time to do it all? Are you wishing for the "day off" so you can do nothing? What is it that makes us think we have to do everything. And if we aren't exhausted by 5 o'clock, we aren't living! How CRAZY!!! Are you living that life? It is SO easy to get trapped in "doing" and not "being". Being present. Being incredible. Being the one God created you to be. The trap fall into the habits we create. Where are you today? Are you trapped on the roller coaster of life wanting to get off but afraid of the consequences and where it will take you? The K.I.S.S. ~ Lead with Quiet! Start your day with meditation, devotion, prayer. (even if for 3-5 minutes) Lead with quiet. When life gets chaotic, take a potty break! Go to quiet. When you're hurried at night - BREATHE.

This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life,when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat,I could see only one set of footprints. So I said to the Lord,"You promised me Lord, that if I followed You, You would walk with me always.But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life,there have only been one set of footprints in the sand.Why, when I needed You most, You have not been there for me?" The Lord replied,"The times when you ahve seen only one set of footprints, is when I carried you." Are you tired? Overwhelmed? Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders? You can't go on.

Rest in the comfort of My Presence, remembering that nothing is impossible with Me." by Sarah Young, Jesus Calling, February 15. There are so many different guidelines out. What you should or shouldn't eat. How can you figure out what works for YOU?
