Lies

When they say you don’t exist but they can’t keep their tongue off your back 24/7, around the clock, no days off- to anyone they speak to.

This is called obsession. People who have obsessive personalities are quick to “cut people out of their lives”- I use quotes because that’s the perspective they administer (to all) while incredibly, simultaneously, continue tearing you down vehemently- nonstop- for YEARS, year after year.

If he or she truly cut said person out of their life, they would be silent as the grave when it comes to you.

These are the telltale signs of an obsessive personality; the individual becomes consumed with the person they profess to cut out of their lives.

They say one thing with their mouths, yet their very words tell the true tale.

What is this type of obsession?

It is hatred. Control. Revenge. Obsession.

If you are dealing with someone who is hatefully obsessed with you, the best thing you can do (for your own health and sanity) is to completely ignore them. They’re truly not worthy of taking up space in your head, so don’t do them any favours.

Hope this helps some of you out there! It surely has helped me, as I’ve dealt with two individuals who are collectively obsessed with me- consumed with me- simply cannot stop talking about me, and probably never will. Yet, I have tremendous peace and joy in my life because I choose to focus my personal lenses on peace, not chaos.

If you too are in a similar situation, know that you’re worth that peace, joy, and love, and that you’re not defined by their words or thoughts, nor are you defined by your past.

You get to decide who you are. Not them.

God is AWESOME

I cannot even begin to explain how God is blessing me in my life right now! Especially recently. I just stay in a constant state of joy and exuberance. Only God can do that.

So I graduated from Aspen University almost 3 years ago with my Master’s degree in Psychology and Addiction Counseling. I’ve never doubted that in God’s time, He would open the door and prepare my way to begin working on my clinical hours so that I can become a licensed Mental Health Counselor. I’m already a mental health counselor- specializing in addiction, I’m just not licensed in the state of Indiana.

I was just given the number to the state licensure organization and I called and spoke with them, which led me to the Career Services Department at Indiana University (the college by which I received my Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology). Because I’m an alumni of Indiana University East, I have access to their Career Services, allowing me to take advantage of their directing me in how to go about obtaining my clinical hours. GOD. HAS. OPENED. THE. DOOR!

I’m really going to be starting my clinical hours very soon! This is a huge moment in my life. 🤗 I’m ECSTATIC.

I legit can’t keep up with all of the blessings God’s sharing with me and my Mom- in tandem. It’s incredible. We’ve been rejoicing at the great things God is doing in our lives.

I didn’t see any of this coming. It’s when we let go of the reigns- those ridiculous reigns that we think help us but are really driving us into the ground- and let God, as the saying goes, that we’re freed. When we truly let go, we have peace.

Peace, and true happiness.

And that’s the only way to experience God’s joy, truly.

Thanks to Him, I live in His joy. 🙂 24/7.

He. Is. Awesome. 🤗✝️🤗

Secrets

Happiness: That thing that eludes most everyone. We have money, homes, cars, friends, pets, food, love, etc. but are we truly happy? What about joy?

The difference between happiness and joy is: Joy comes from the Lord; happiness is rather a self-fulfilling prophecy.

When we feel actual joy, God is slicing off a piece of Himself and sharing It with us.

Happiness?

How do you obtain true happiness?
