Frustrated to the Upmost!

Hello to my few bloggers! I hope everyone has been doing well. I know... I know...  I kinda suck at keeping my blog up to date! I have a little bit more time on my hands now, so I will try to come and express more often.

Well what a difference a day will make....literally!! So much has been going on in my life for the past month that I can't begin to explain it all. I'm grateful for God's hand being in my life, because some of the events should have broken me down...YET I'm still standing!

Now, on to my topic....FRUSTRATION!!!

Have you ever had so many thoughts on your mind until you become totally frustrated?!?! Well if not, let me explain. You're thinking about projects at work, paying this bill, going to this appointment, going to a party next, the dress you need for the party, whether or not you can fit the dress, maybe going to gym so I can fit the dress, needing to go to the grocery store, being hungry, wondering what I'm going to eat, wondering am I settling at work, do I really like my career, can I do better, and oh, doing all this thinking while you're driving....lol! Just a realisitic expample of how my thoughts drive my to being frustrated. 

I actually had to go look for the definition of frustration to make sure this was the correct adjective to use. Well I'm sure there are others, but we'll stick with this one for today! Frustration simply put is the feeling of defeat or discouragement. Now you may ask why are you frustrated by the trends of everyday life? Well these trends become frustrating when you desire more and can't seem to get more. It's like being on a merry-go-round and not being able to stop it to get off!

The same ole flow basically frustrates me! I have so many creative thoughts and moments when I see myself doing unique and extraordinary things, YET...it's like being at a museum and not being able to touch them!!! SUPER FRUSTRATING! I think to myself all the time, "you're way too creative to being doing ____ for a living!" Then I become  "urrrghh" when others confirm my creativity. So how do I solve this feeling of defeat...discourage...frustration?

I pray! Did you think I was going to say something like run down the stair, turn around two times, and drink a Sprite?!?! LOL

I pray, I meditate, I put God's Word in my Heart, and I trust HIM!

How do you handle feelings of defeat or frustration?



Please Comment...I'm listening!



Life Lately

Hello blogger friends! I know it has been a while but things have been so busy for me! I've started a new school year, teaching a new grade, and at a new school. So all those new things mean major adjustments for me (a.k.a. stress level on 10!). I am grateful for the opportunity to teach and hopefully make a difference in my students' lives. I know I sound old when I say this....but, children nowadays are completely different breed. Some of the issues and experiences they have as young as fourth or sixth grade are shamefully amazing (not sure if those words work together but oh well!). Drugs, sex, weapons, violence, etc. these children are exposed to just make me want to become a better to try mold their minds against the negative. Well in a nut shell, pray for all of our children!!! The world is not the same and it's my job to teach, shape, and mold the minds that will be taking care of all of us in the next 20 or so years!!!

Well I don't think I got on here to talk about my job, but it's the topic I woke up with this morning!

On another note, today I'm going to the fall edition of the World Natural Hair Show in Atlanta, GA! I attended the spring show and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's my hope to see and experience more this time around, because last time I had buyers remorse extremely  bad! I hope to not have it this time around! Well I'm off to get ready and I will be returning with pictures and maybe even some product reviews!

Creatively Yours,

Ms Cnille

Mental Overload?!?!

Mental Overload....really...is that possible?~?~ Well lately I've been feeling like I'm on mental overload. So many thoughts are consuming me that it's hard for me to focus on what's important! To me, they all seem important...the what ifs, what about, when will, etc.

I am person who mentally has a plan, but putting the into action(or writing) happens very slowly. I've found myself doing this several times before and each time I always say I will not procrastinate, but end up waiting until the last minute every time. Could it be that I just function best under pressure?!?!? That's what I've alway said but maybe..just maybe I'm getting to mature (old, lol) for all the last minute stress. I wonder how I would feel if I just created a plan, made small goals, and completed them?

So, it is my prayer to God that I start write my plans down. You know..Habakkuk 2:2 "... Write the vision, make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it." Have a great day and remember to plan properly!

Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. I've had several thoughts to start a blog but never took the time to sit down and develop one. Well, it's summer and school is out, so I have some time on my hands. I thought this would be an awesome way to express my creative thoughts. I hope to tickle all you're emotions as I express life through my eyes! God bless and I look forward to reading your comments!
