It may seem crazy how no one has a safety net for you when you are falling, but you always seem to be there to catch and protect whoever needs you. Truth is you can’t expect your way of showing love to be someone else’s behavior. The people that you’re here for today may never return the favor or offer you their helping hand. That is why it is extremely important that you keep Allah in your heart as your one and only friend. Because whose there for you no matter what? Who come through for you no matter what? Who loves you and challenges you to be better no matter what?... Stay focused.  ~JB

Lets talk about procrastination.

Procrastination has always been a problem in my life. I do it often and I always regret it soon after. I am usually overwhelmed and sluggish when I have the need to procra stinate but that does not mean I am lazy, in fact it is the total opp osite.   This week I had the op portunity to have a conv ersation with my professor about procra stination and why we do it.

You want them to know what they have done to you because in your normal mind they should care and feel remorse and give you the closure you need but they do not share your normal feelings and will never feel sorry for what they have done or give you a peace of mind. Be done and move on!

Self improvement

No one is responsible for our emotional intelligence. We cannot live in a state of mind broken over who has hurt us or why they did so. We have to work on fixing ourselves from the trauma and leave the ones who got us here behind. ~JB 

Healing no hurting!

No matter how hard they have tried to break you or how bad they have made you feel,  returning the same hurt to them won't help you heal or make you happy.   ~JB
