Who is ready for an all new blog episode for today? I know that I am but 1st, blog recap from Monday! On Monday, I talked about what caused me pain so far this year?

Be there for people when they are in trouble!! Want to know more about this blog? You can check it out right here: →What caused me pain so far this year? Please, go give this blog episode a read! Please! Thank you so much! I love y'all! For today's blog episode, I will be talking about what gave me strength this year so far? This blog is dedicated to anyone who felt close to people who might of given them the strength throughout the year! This blog is for y'all! In this blog episode, I will be talking about if I could pick 3 things that gave me strength so far this year, what would those things be? Why would I pick those 3 things that brought me strength this year so far? Out of those things, which one brings me the most strength? Why did that thing bring me the most strength this year so far? Now, let's get our thinking caps on and get this blog episode started! Shall we? We shall!! 

My definition of strength! Why would I give that as my definition of strength? 

If I could give my definition of strength, what would that be? If I could give my definition of strength, that would be someone who stays strong for everyone else while that person is struggling themselves!! Sometimes, when a person is trying to stay strong for other people, maybe because that person doesn't want other people to struggle either!! You always want to stay strong for other people but it can be a challenge at times!! Why would I give that as my definition of strength? The reason why I would give that as my definition of strength is because it is hard to stay strong for others when you are feeling weak yourself but you hide that from others and that can be a challenge at times!! Don't hide your weakness from others because people could pick up on it!! I know my fiancé could pick up when I am not fine!!! I could tell him that I am fine but deep down, he knows that I am not fine!! He is good!! 

3 things that give strength so far this year? 

If I could pick 3 things that gave me strength so far this year, what would those 3 things be? If I had to pick 3 things that gave me strength so far this year, the 1st thing that gave me strength is having people supportive!! When I think about that, it makes me realize how blessed I am to have people who is willing to support me and be there for me through difficult times!! It makes me realize that without those people, I don't know if I would be this strong!! The 2nd thing that gave me strength is people being there! Having people there for me when I need them the most gives me some strength! When I need someone, I know there are a lot of people who will be there for me and that gives me a lot of comfort!! Knowing that I have people who will be there for me and supporting me, it gives me a lot of strength!! The 3rd and final thing that gave me strength this year so far is feeling loved by others!! To have that feeling of feeling loved by others is the most amazing feeling in the world! Nothing gives me more comfort than knowing that I am loved by others!! To me, I know that I am loved and cared for and I know people love me a lot!! I feel loved by others who shows me the love that I need!! 

Why?

Why would I pick those 3 things that brought me strength this year so far? The 1st reason why I would pick having people supportive as the 1st thing that gave me strength this year so far is because when you have people in your corner who understands what you are going through and knows that they will do anything to support you, it makes you realize how blessed you are and for me, I fee very blessed! Ever since me and my fiancé got engaged, we had so much support from his family, his church family, and so much more and I can't thank God for that!! The 2nd reason why I would pick people being there as the 2nd thing that gave me strength this year so far is because to know that I have people who is willing to drop anything just to be there for me is the most amazing feeling in the world!! To know that people will help me through anything that I am going through or willing to listen to me when I need someone to talk to is an amazing feeling and I can't thank God for the people who will listen to me and be there for me!! The 3rd and final reason why I would pick feeling loved by others as the 3rd thing that gave me strength this year so far is because to know that you have people who love you is the best feeling in the world! To know that people who love you just the way you are and you don't have to change for them is the most amazing feeling in the world!! I feel blessed that I have people who love me the way I am and they accept me the way I am!! It is a blessing!! 

Most strength!! 

Out of those things, which one brings me the most strength? If I had to pick the one thing that brings me the most strength, it would have to be feeling loved by others as the one that give me the most strength!! When I think about feeling loved by others, to know that I am loved especially loved by my fiancé, it makes safe and secure!! All of my life, all I wanted to feel safe and secure and I have finally come to a place where I do feel safe and secure and I am so blessed to have a few people who do make me safe and secure and one of those people is my fiancé!! When I stayed with him and his older sister, I felt safe and secure by them! In my head, I knew that they wouldn't have anything bad happened to me and I know that they would do anything to keep me safe and I love them for that!! Having a lot of people who love me whether it is my family or even my fiancé's family or even his church family, I feel so blessed to have them!! 

Why? 

Why did that thing bring me the most strength this year so far? The reason why I chose feeling loved by others as the that give me the most strength this year so far is because throughout my life, I never found people who would love me for me or I was afraid to be who I am around others but now, I don't care about being afraid to be who I am and the reason why I am not afraid anymore is because those people love me for who I am, not the pretend version!! The love the real version of me and to know people love the real version is amazing!! I love having people in my life who love me for me, not a pretend version of me!! They love the person who struggles, the one who is going through a lot, and the one who is happy and has God in her life!! I am blessed to have people who truly love me!!! I am blessed!! 

In closing/ Reminder of the day! 

In closing, this year has brought me some days where people hurt me or I had people being there for me and to those people who have been there for me, thank you for being there for me! I love y'all! This year gave me a lot of strength as well!! To have people who are supportive, to people being there, to feeling loved by others is the most amazing feeling in the world! To the ones who have been supportive, I want to thank you for not giving up on me because your support means everything to me! I feel loved by the amount of support! Thank you!! I feel so blessed to have people who love me for me! People love the real me and to know that, it feels wonderful and amazing!! I have never felt safe and secure until the few people I have in my life and I am so blessed!! I have so much strength because of the people who make me feel loved!! I am so thankful for the people who love me!! Here is my reminder of the day: My reminder of the day is find people who will love the real authentic you! Don't pretend to be someone else to have people love you!! If the people in your life don't love the real and authentic you, then you don't need those people in your life anymore! Don't pretend to be someone else!! I love y'all!!

Having people who will be there for you and supporting you through everything, it means a lot!! You want people who is willing to drop everything just being there for you!! I love those people!!

Today's Bible Verse of the day! I love this Bible Verse of the day so much because we can't forget the benefits that Lord has given us and he wants us to trust him and he wants us to give thanks!! 

"Surround 
yourself with 
supportive 
people". 
-The inspiring Lifestyle. I couldn't agree with this quote more because once you surround yourself with supportive people, you never want to lose those people who are supportive! Having people who are supportive is the best feeling in the world!! 

"There are rare people, 
who will show up at the right time, 
help you through the hard times and 
stay into your best times. 
Those are the keepers". 
-Thoughts. I love this quote a lot because people are rare when they drop everything to show up the right time, help you through hard times, and stay by your side at your best times! Those people are keepers!! Those people will help you get through a hard time and they will show up at the right time and stay by your side when you are having best times in your life!! Keep those people!! 

"It's about those who 
have good hearts, 
are full of love, 
living their life with
honest and beautiful 
intentions, and treating 
others with respect". 
-Prettypaper. I love this so much because there are people who have good hearts and have the right intentions to be there for people who needs love and care!! There are people who also treating them respect as well! Find people who will treat you with respect!! 

I love y'all so much! Please, be safe out there and let's share how amazing God's love is and how cool Jesus is today!! I love y'all and does Jesus! This Blogger Queen is out!! Peace! ✌❤
