Can you wait for your rainbow?
I know how it feels to not know what is going to happen next. Honestly, I’ve given up a few times in the past. But guess what?
I grew up loving one of the most popular tunes by New Edition. As Johnny belted out that smooth flowing “naaaaaaaayooooooh”, til this day, I’m unable to ignore the urge to join in. As a child, I’d dance around singing “sunnnnnnny days, everybody loves them….” swaying along to the beat, not completely understanding what the song was implying.
“But tell me baby, can you stand the rain?”
What is that rain they were speaking of? As a child I honestly thought they were talking about standing in the rain. As I grew older, I learned it was those difficult times that we are going to face along life’s journey; that’s what! This statement is not just relatable to romantic relationships, but our personal love story within ourselves. There are going to be many days when we are happy beyond measure, but what about the days that seem to not go our way?
Do we just give up?
Honestly, the easy answer is oftentimes a long and hard YES. We get tired. I totally understand that! Mostly, because I know how it feels to be so crushed that I am unable to keep my head up. I know how it feels to not know what is going to happen next. Honestly, I’ve given up a few times in the past. But guess what? I’ve regretted it as well.
Stay the course…
When the sky begins to get dark and the clouds overshadow the lightness of your backyard, stay the course. Take the rain and allow it to nurture and grow your roots of self, so you can be prepared for the day the sun returns with a rainbow to remind you of the strength you possess.

On those days is when I find my power...
On those days is when I find my power….
In the middle of the night, I found my power again.
I have always wondered why my body loved to wake up at 3am almost everyday. No matter what time I fall asleep, I wake up between 3-3:30am like clockwork. Some days I am beyond tired and refuse to get up. On others, I’m faced with troubling hot flashes that force me to wake up. On the rest of the days? I choose to not fight the natural instinct inside me, so I get up. On those days is when I find my power.
This life reality honestly rings true in other areas of our lives as well….
There are so many talents that have naturally been placed inside each of us, but we are not all walking in those truths. It is easy to fight it and put it off to another day. When in reality, another day is never promised. Some days we blatantly ignore what we should be doing, simply because we don’t feel like it. We also have those days when we are FORCED to do something, because we have no other option. Unfortunately, we can’t be our best selves until we CHOOSE to get up and move, without fear.
We are not promised another chance encounter like this moment, so live in it and take advantage.
