Happy Christmas Eve everyone!! I am so excited for Christmas! Tomorrow; besides spending quality time with family, eating too much and opening presents, our family is volunteering at an elderly home. There are plenty of seniors in need this holiday season that would love your company and it is not too late to sign up to volunteer. There are so many elderly people that do not have family to visit them or spend time with them. “Adopt” an elderly person today, spend some time sharing stories, getting to know one another, making them feel like part of the family and Live Inspired Now!

“A what?”, you might ask. I use this term to describe people, like myself, who donate or give to others without going through an organized system or charity. In other words, you might give money, goods, food or offer services directly to people in need rather than giving it to a known charity. Charities are great and I support many, but I also very much love giving to people that I know are in need. Not to mention, many people who are in need will not seek any type of charity or help.
There are so many ways to help people directly. You can send gift cards in the mail, drop off food, toys, wood or other heating sources, give a salon day for a single mom, bring warm clothes to the school, drop off blankets or coats to a homeless person… the list is infinite.
Today, I am going out with 2 friends and we are dropping off a full Christmas dinner to a family in need. I can’t tell you how much fun it is and how much satisfaction you will get by helping someone in need. It doesn’t have to be anything huge… every gift from the heart is priceless. So today, try it for yourself, be a bad-ass vigilante philanthropist, do it anonymously, if you can, and Live Inspired Now!

People live in fear every day, most are not afraid of big things like the world ending or zombie apocalypse rather they are afraid to change. Many people stay in abusive relationships because they are afraid to be alone or they are afraid of the unknown, the “not knowing where to go or what to do.” It never ceases to amaze me how people (and I have done it too) will prolong suffering because of fear. Fear causes us to find ways to control that which we have no control over and it is has been Fucking Even Awesome Relationships since the beginning of time.
Some people will try to control their partners and manipulate them to try to subside their fear but that will not create a healthy relationship. If you partner is going to lie or cheat, you can’t manipulate them into not doing it… and why would you want to? Wouldn’t it be better to be with someone you can trust rather than trying to “catch” bad behavior? Wouldn’t it be better to be alone and have the opportunity to find a positive, healthy relationship that you can love rather than continue to live in fear of getting hurt? Nobody deserves abuse but we have to take responsibility for what we put up with and what we stay with.
Parents, please teach your young ladies and gentlemen that they deserve a healthy relationship that is not based in fear and that being alone and taking the time to find a quality relationship is far better than settling for abuse. Also, set a good example for your kids, they will have a relationship similar to yours. Ask yourself… would I be OK if my son/daughter had the type of relationship that I have now?
Don’t live in fear, you can always make a change. Yes it is scary but yes you can do it. Never settle for abuse, don’t live in fear of things you have no control over, seek help or support if you need it and Live Inspired Now!
