Peak and Valleys

In  our life we all go through peaks

and valleys.  How we handle them

is the key.  Our experience can help 

others with there's.  

We need to realize when the peaks

happen as much as the valleys.

The valleys happen when we are 

going through something negative 

or stressful. The peaks are when 

things are going the best we know.

Hopefully we live life more in the

middle most of the time. In can

be extremely hard if we go from

the peak to the valley very fast.

We have to learn when it does and

slow down the process. We could

spend a lot of time in the valley

if we aren't careful at all. It could 

affect our health too.  This is

where to help others going through

the valley..

Wednesday after my time at the gym

 I went to the grocery store. I saw a

women in late thirties who works 

there as a bookkeeper. For many 

years she was a cashier. I first

new her as an older teenager. 

She said that her daughter is now

in 10th grade. This year she allowed 

her back to public school. In middle

school her daughter was bullied by

some other girls so home schooled

until she was ready to go back to

school. I would call that a very heavy

valley for sure.  I think bulling has 

gone to a higher level than when I 

was that age.  It is very tough for 

sure. This is when parents and others

have to work together.

May you do well wherever you are at

right now. The valley can make us

stronger in the long run.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

to the 

Go After People

People are not possessions though 

we are meant to meet them where 

they are at.

After my morning walk Tuesday 

I met a man around my age at 

one of the local coffee shop which 

people here do alot of. 

He was sitting in a chair across 

from me and my usual thing I 

said hello.

He was fascinated when I told

him that I wrote blogs. He said

that I was the first one who he

had ever met that wrote one.

We talked a for a while almost

an hour.  Our conversation was 

on several subjects including

what I write about.

He told me that as a child he

followed sports like many boys

did our age. When he went  off

to college he stopped doing so.

He was disillusioned by the 

whole thing.  

In our conversation he heard 

some things like you would

reading about the news. He

has friends who follow sports

still would talk about.  He

said they were still big fans

and be upset with the team 

they follow.

We talked about college sports

that are not like back in the day.

Those who play are professional 

now instead of ametuer.  When

they are finished they can go

play in the real professional 

leagues.

We talked about sports like baseball

and American football when we were

children. His dad took him to minor

league baseball games near by. 

When we were done and went out

ways. He said thank you. This is

the best time and conversation 

he has had in a while and he will

be thinking about it for a while.

I thanked him for his time tohers 

This is truly how our life purpose 

should look like in whatever way

we present it. Leaving others in a 

better place afterwards. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Be a Light

Our purpose from the very beginning of

life is to be a light to  others. In return 

they will be for us.

Thinking about it when we get old

enough to interact with others it

maybstsrt that way but things happen 

where it goes the other way.

I am sure we all remember those who 

acted harsh and negative somewhere 

when we were in school.  We might 

have been the harsh and negative one

to. It could have been for how we felt

and responded back.

Now our purpose should be the light

that was intended. We live in a dark

world. We can spread the light though

it might be just a sparkle.  We can make

a dent. 

May your day be well and the light

penatraight the darkness.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being A Poet

I believe those who are a very good poet

is a good gift to have.  Like any gift

it is unique for the one who has it.

My cousin Jennifer is a very good poet.

She wrote a novel several years too. 

Some will write with ryme while others 

have a different style of their own. 

Readers can get a lot from a poet.

Having a journal is a bgood place to 

write poetry as well as any other thoughts.

A woman from Toronto who I view

her posts on X about gratitude has

shown some of her poetry there too.

Another I have viewed on her Instagram 

page from her book of poetry. Both

are so encouraging.

Enjoy different poets you can find.

Those from the past to those of

today. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Every Day We Should Be Gentle

Everyone will be looking up to us if

we are gentle in the way we act.

It goes with love, encouragement 

and gratitude. 

There are times we have to be bold 

and speak truth with tough love.

A lot better with gentleness and

all fruit we get from our gifts if 

people see this and a great attitude. 

If we get rejected which is possible 

we know that we have done our best.

Rejection is part of the package.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Reversing Any Curses

It came to my mind when I woke up

that since we live in Natural World 

that we are accustomed to there is

a spiritual world to which I have

mentioned too before. 

There are those who are more aware 

of the spiritual world than others. Our

negative thinking or what we receive 

from others come from the spiritual 

world though we hear it in the natural.

There is a battle over us in the spiritual

world. God sees our strengths, weaknesses 

and sins here in the natural world but it

crossed over from the spiritual world. God

sees our potential to and when we die we

may move into our spiritual bodies if we 

believe and accept Jesus Christ. 

I believe to that God still sees us as we 

were born. He loved us even before the

first day of life and has since even if we

mess it up on our own. The evil side which

controlled by Satan and his helpers tries

go bring us down every second of everyday.

Now onto curses. Whether you will realize 

or not any negative words that anyone says

 to you about you is a curse. The same goes 

for anything we say about ourselves so we 

have to forgive them and us. We have to 

renounce those curses as though they never 

existed in the first place. 

We are both flesh and spirit so anytime we

should come again them. We don't have to

them that they cursed us but we can tell them

we don't accept what they said to us. Now I 

pray in the morning about any curse that 

may come on me will fall away. I renounce 

them when I am aware and do so before I 

go to bed. Amen.

May you be blessed today and have a positive 

day. Everything negative falls away. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Others Knowing Your Purpose

At times there maybe someone who 

knows or verifies your purpose without 

know it.  

On Wednesday I went into  a pharmacy 

to buy a couple of items. The woman

at the counter asked me if I like a flu 

shot it isn't busy right now. I said sure. 

After the shot the nurse said she thought

I have a beautiful name. I said thank you.

Next she said that my name sounds like

someone who is an author. Quite amazing 

don't you think. 

How many people look at you then see

your name and believe what your purpose 

is just by the name.   ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being An Overcomer

As we know life isn't always good. When we

have a good stretch of having good times

at some point things will come along to

ruin it.

Whether we believe it or not we are in a

spiritual battle. We can see that whether

we are experiencing it right now or not.

Being human we might might have questions 

on what is going on. As a young child I went

through a lot whether my fault or not. I am sort

of used to it by now. 

We have to have faith that we learned or

believed that it will turn out right in the

end whether it does or not.  I have had 

desires that have not come true even now.

I hope they do and the faith even if I don't 

see the end of the tunnel. I wonder why 

life hasn't turned out the I would like.

I have to believe the story is still not over.

I hope this helps someone. 

I know the battle will continue even when I 

get the desires I like. That is life. My purpose 

is to help others out whether  it is giving 

encouragement or knowing that I am with

everyone. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

 

Freedom and Independence

Here in the United States freedom and

independence is so dear to us.  I wish

everyone in the world would have the

same. 

What makes it difficult is we can take

it foregranted.  Also at times some 

speak that they are entitled.  The

truth is a true gift from God. 

There are those within the country who

are trying to take away some of our 

freedoms. I don't understand those 

who speak politically think we should 

be more socialist. 

Those who live  elsewhere may say well 

you  have social security. That isn't really 

correct use if social since everyone who 

works pays a portion and the employer 

does equally until we retire or we are at 

least 62 years old.  Those who take it 

at 62 don't get as much monthly than

those who are 70. It is based on the person 

living to 82 years old.  Of course some

live longer than that and others do not.

We have do have some social programs 

for those in need whether their health 

or income. This doesn't mean we should 

be a socialist country.

Growing  up I was independent where 

I could go many places of my choosing.

My parents had very few rules. They 

knew I was at all times though. The

danger in the world today more rules

need to apply. Also  the influence by

peers and adults is not always good.

May you have a good day and may you

have freedoms at least in your thoughts 

and may danger not be around you.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

 

Quality of Life

It is so important for us all to have

a good quality of life.

This is true whether we are rich or

poor. In some countries like United

States most of the poor people 

have better quality of life than in

many countries. 

We do have children in my area

that go to school who are hungry.

They do receive a meal or two

at school where it is the only food 

they may have.  

We do have programs where people 

can get free food however some

do not take advantage of it. They

qualify on what their income is. 

Also there are programs to where

clothing can be given and children 

can receive toys as well.

Our purpose should help others

in these areas as well as their 

spiritual life.  Everything that 

others feel special and have

the quality of life.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Reaching Out

A lot comes to the person with their life

purpose and giftings  to reach out.

There are those you are interacting with 

already many  and your time is precious to

you as well.  

There are those who are in your community 

and outside you may not know at all that

you are expected to reach. 

This doesn't mean you have to spend a

lot of time to speak to them. I speak

to some only for a moment.  Whatever 

your gifting is they will remember.

They may have something for you

too.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Walking The Right Path

I know all of us swerve now in and then

when walking the path of life. It is 

important to walk straight most of 

the time. 

For some in living this life purpose is

to help those who are off the road so

to speak get back to where they should 

be. 

Some people are difficult since they

have had a lifestyle for sometime

that isn't healthy. Still important 

to mentor them or be a counselor 

if that is your profession. 

For some it will be difficult since they

get off the path so easily or haven't 

gotten back on as they should.  If you

are a mentor than you walk hand to

hand with them.  Hardest is when 

they have gotten deep once a again.

You might have to leave them alone

but they will need to know you are

willing when they want to try again. 

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The Use of AI

Now AI is becoming very big now. 

You may like using it or not. It

does have merit. 

I use AI to ask questions. I know

some use it for writing. I won't 

here at all. A couple times I 

used it on my website herbnightingale.com

Even in writing asking the right 

question and topic is important.

If you are still searching for your 

life purpose  AI can help you out. 

There is even tests where you can 

enter your interests and hobbies.

I asked finding my life purpose.  The

first thing AI said it is an ongoing 

process.  I may mention some of 

what AI has said. 

The exciting thing our life purpose 

gets more exciting day. The main

reason the people we meet and 

what we find out more about us.

Whether you speak with AI or not

may your purpose be better today.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
