I am a believer
I have lived part of my life afraid, afraid of so much, and now, I am living to learn, love, laugh, enjoy all that is presented before me. I am able to be me, and enjoy whom I am, and not compromise what I believe in. Be whom you are, not what anyone believes that you should be. Live your life completely and wholly, for yourself, for your family, friends, and as God would have it be.

Compromise
How do you know when the right moment is that you give up a piece of your pride and compromise with someone that is just dragging you down? How do you know when it is the right time to stop the communication, the dealing with them other than the minimum amount that you have to communicate with this person?
How do you make it right with them feeling that you may be sacrificing some of what you believe in? Can you really do that?
Somedays, we are faced with a lot of trials in our lives, that leave us wondering what we should be doing. We have to look deep inside, look at what our beliefs, our faith is telling us to do. We have to reach deep inside and pull out that imbedded wisdom that is sometimes put away so deep, that we forget that we have it. Stop and breathe, listen, feel it, hold it, smell it and taste the purity that it offers us, and use that for the guidance that we need to deal with the complications that life throws at us.
Sometimes, we do have to turn the other cheek, more than less, in order to make sense and to bring some kind of peace and harmony into our lives as well as the lives of others around us. We don't necessarily have to give up our beliefs or our morals, but work it into the situation in such a way that it is not condescending in any way, but presented and left as an option or even an idea that the other person may see as something that they conjured up.
We don't have to be right all the time, we have to learn to compromise for the bigger more harmonious picture. We don't have to give up our beliefs, but we need to learn to teach in such a way that it brings people in closer to us, and hungry for that peace that we have.
Hope, faith, love and patience
