Pardon Me As I Dream

Is Walt Disney World the only place where dreams come true? I think not. So if you don't mind, pardon me as I dream and I'm dreaming with my eyes wide open. *clears throat* Yes, I have it all outlined.

Someone asked me, why did I name my organization "Makeva Harold Foundation, Inc."

TRUST and whatever else

I hope you're not in a rush because this is going to be a long one. If you are, please visit my site when you really have time to sit, read and think. I want to hear from you so please leave your comments after you read. Ya'll knew I would eventually touch on this. I have to take a few steps back in order for you to understand what's going on now.

In 2006, I started dating this guy that I was "with" for about three years. At the third year, we continued to talk but it wasn't like it was prior to that. I was sooo in love with him. No one could've ever told me he wasn't going to be my husband. Someone should've continued to tell me that he wasn't going to be my husband because he always put so many other women before me. And I mean really, what would you expect a man to do when you allow him to do all those things to you. Note to Women: Men will do unto you whatever you allow them to do so know your worth and don't settle for anything less than you deserve. I finally cut all ties with him a few days ago. Okay, so we never made it official that we were a couple and I loved him so much. I knew he loved me too but his love came a few years after mine. I have never been jealous of anyone. Why?

Show Me My Opponent...Team Makeva

Show me my opponent! Ooops, my opponent doesn't exist. I fear no one but God and of course, he's on my offense. He's my Quarterback and I'm the Wide Receiver. He throws the passes and I do nothing better than...catch them. Once I catch them, I decide if I want to run with the ball or if I want to be tackled. No tackles, no fumbles or interceptions for me. I'm going for the TOUCHDOWN! Once I make it to the end zone, the world will know. I'm ready to do my touchdown dance. :)

Team Makeva is defined as those who are FOR me and WITH me during this entire game. Those that aren't giving up when they feel we are losing. Those that remain faithful and not sign with another team. Those that practice with me any time of the hour. Those who call the time-outs and give me all the pep talks I need. Those who check me when I have read the play wrong. This is the make-up of Team Makeva. Are you in or not?!?!

Faith

Having faith takes a lot of courage. You really have to believe and trust in God that he will make a way when others (including you) believe that there is no way. I define faith as doing the impossible but believing God and knowing he will make it possible. If I have to say this everyday to make it through, I will say it: "Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things unseen" Hebrews 11:1



I received this in an email today and it really touched my heart. "You should look at yourself as a pioneer. Things that you do today, will influence the lives of our future tomorrow!!! You are struggling now to give some kid 10 or 20 years from now the courage to." I sometimes need to hear encouraging words as well. I have days where I work so hard then other days I feel as though I'm not working hard enough. God is able to do all things so I will continue to believe and trust in him. I love the Lord with all my heart and soul. That is all!

Where's My Husband?

I pray and ask God to send me a great husband who he knows is right for me. A perfect man does not exist but there is a man that's perfect for me.

He should be taller than I am, handsome, intelligent, respectful, hardworking, independent, trustworthy, family oriented, and spiritual. He will make me happy aside from me making myself happy, he will make me laugh (sense of humor) and will also accept my daughter as his own.

Is that too much to ask for? I don't think so. I know my worth. This is what I want and this is what I will get!
