Black girls like new beginnings.
A fresh start is the best treatment for any failure - personal or professional.
As women, we can get caught in a cycle, an unhealthy cycle, that allows the same wound to be reopened right as it has finally crusted over with a scab.
I know gross imagery but sometimes we need to hear the truth.
A few examples:
- You're in an on again/off again relationship for ten years. The man calls you up and says it's over, I am in love. You decide to visit home. He calls you up and says, "Just kidding. I love you!" You sleep with him - it starts all over again.
- The same family member(s) that has (have) betrayed you time and time again once again lets you down. You are hurt and injured and they are on their merry way.
- You start a diet and workout regimen and are losing weight steadily. One weekend you fall of track. Instead of getting back on track, you wallow in self-pity and gravy.
I am being a tad facetious but you get my drift.
It's time to heal. It's time to prosper. The one way you can start today is by making a new beginning.
My prayer lately has been, Lord help me to take one day at a time.
