Basic vs. Progressive

 Good Morning Bloggers,

So it's official, another year has passed and yesterday my mom celebrated her 73rd birthday in heaven with her mom, sisters, daughter, son, and now her baby daddy. It's weird, just a few weeks ago I felt immensely lonely and even expressed the different levels of loss and death. And although sometimes I do feel incedibly lonely, I now know (and have always known) that I have my tribe. That tribe consists of people whom I love and love me the way I need to be loved. Although it's not an intimate love, which I desire, it's a genuine love that is palpable and available to me in my darkest hours. It's expressed through words, actions and emotions that are recognized between those who I really care for and those who genuinely care for me. And as I close out this year with the first year of grad school under my belt with straight A"s and a 4.0 GPA, I give thanks to all of those who had faith in my potential and always reminded me of who I am and what I am capable of. A big shout out to all my kids, who are now amazing productive adults within society, and my close and dear friends who are always in my ear, in my heart and on my mind constantly cheering me on! 

As for the title for this entry, it has come to my attention that I have never been basic and seek progressive individuals to inspire my potential to go anywhere I want to go. And although I have found myself in some stagnant situations, I always mangage to free myself of those entanglements and move forward with learned lessons and added self love. I'm actually falling completely in love with myself and I have managed to turn my flaws into assets. My self awareness and worth has multiplied over time and the more I spend time by myself I learn that I can walk away from situations that don't benefit my well being: physically, mentally, emotionally, and financially. For that matter, anything that's not beneficial to my soul or my energy is being eliminated, but that elimination is a process and through that process I am learning very valuable life lessons.

Now keep in mind that basic and progressive are very subjective, what's basic/ progressive to me might not fit your definition of basic/progressive. With that being said, basic for me is someone who is ok with the current status of their life and who doesn't challenge themself to a better version of who they can be. Progressive, to me, is self-evolution, (what I like to call it) with that self-evolution comes the courage to not only face their fears but to overcome them and aspire to bigger and better things within their life. Those acheivements can come mentally, emotionally, intellectually, financially and of course soulfully. This type of growth allows a person to break generational curses and open up your lineage for the best possible timeline within your generation! Having enough courage to expose yourself to new and challenging situations/things enhances life, and I always like to say: don't knock it til you try it! Being confident and courageous enough to exposure and exploration of course with safety in mind, opens up your life to new experiences and adventures. I guess that's what makes me unique, @ my age I'm still an adrenaline junky and still aspire to be the best version of myself!

I've accomplished so much in my 50 years of living and anticipate to achieve so much more in my next 50 years (would be nice to have a partner, to share)!
