Sisterfriends,

During a guided conversation with someone really special to me, I found myself having to tell myself, YOU NEED TO TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE or in all actuality, listen to the spiritual guidance your giving: MAKE THE DECISION.

Healthy, Happy and Whole, my ultimate goal. Most may think it is the ultimate destination, but it’s not. In order to consistently achieve this goal, it can no longer be a wish. It must be backed up with ACTION. I am beginning to understand that it is a daily decision, sometimes down to the hour, minutes and seconds of life. Making healthy choices to eat more vegetables, proteins and good fats. Drinking water and allowing myself a half a cup of my favorite sweet ice tea followed up with more water. Walking. Intentionally developing healthy relationships and communication skills. Deciding to face the fears and do it anyway. Purposefully reading and applying words. The word of God, that gives me life, literally resuscitating me from decisions that I made or would have that weren’t in my best interest.

Happiness has been making a regular appearance when I have found myself acknowledging everything that I am grateful and thankful for. A decision in itself. I’m so much happier when I am helping someone else. I can tell you that is so far away from past selfish thoughts and motivations. It feels right, another good decision, another step towards the goal.

Wholeness is exactly what it sounds like. Nothing missing. Complete. I believe the more decisions I make to pursue health and happiness, another empty space, crack and crevice in my soul fills in.

Sis, the choice will always be yours, MAKE THE DECISION.
