Pondering

How do you instill things in your children that will help them grow and learn?

How do you get your children to understand how to be obedient and listen without overwhelming yourself?

I don’t want to keep using the same methods that didn’t get me anywhere with my older son with my younger children, so I tried to talk more and be more patient versus how I was with my older son and just discipline him every chance I got..

As I get older and my children grow older, it seems like talking to them at times feels like a lot like nobody is comprehending or understanding what it is that I’m trying to instill in them or teach them.

I grew up with several different ways of being disciplined and the ways that I chose to utilize what I was taught was not always good with my oldest child so I’m trying to be different with my other children…

What are some ways that you feel you can teach your children how to listen and understand what you’re teaching them without huge confusion or confrontation??

I genuinely would like an answer as to how you parent your children and what were the results of your parenting techniques that you use on your children?

SOMETHING TO CONSIDER

Why is it that when you want things done a certain way it doesn’t happen like that why is it that when somebody else wants things done a certain way we can go out of our way sometimes to do with someone else wants but don’t give the same energy to ourselves it’s not easy to even do things for others but we will make sure we get it done.

We don’t give ourselves the same time in the same energy that we do others and sometimes it makes us feel good when we go out of our way for other people but we need to begin to make ourselves feel good and go out of our way for ourselves I think that one of the things that help is helped me over the years begin to do things for myself more often than usual it should just stop and take in what’s going on around me

I’m learning that it seems to be easier to go out of our way for others than it is ourselves and in order for me personally to make time for me I decide that I’m going to turn my phone off play my music and justice enjoy peace and quiet if I don’t want to hear any music

I’m realizing that it’s easier said than done but it’s something that has to be consistent and it’s something that has to happen because if it doesn’t happen then I’m left to wonder why I’m going through so much confusion and why I feel overwhelmed and why I feel like I’m not getting anywhere so when it comes to these things and when I feel this way I have to shut the world out because I cannot continue to do for others and pour into others if I can’t pour into myself the same way I think you should give it a try it definitely makes the difference

Escaping Through Words: A Personal Reflection

March 4, 2025March 4, 2025 loveli7659Leave a comment

I begin to find myself through the escaping pen

all I wanted was freedom and didn’t know where to start or where it would end

I decided to escape through the keyboard and digital paper to write a means to my end

and once I started typing, I didn’t know where my lines would end

so I just made sure to express myself the way I truly wanted because if you really knew me, then you wouldn’t want to hear about it

hear about my day to day or even the one that got away,

Now, I’m glad you decided to tune in and see what journey I choose to write about with my digital pen. I like it this way because it has the trail that will stay; even a physical copy is something that will fade away

I want to see how far it will go

I want to see where it will land

I want to see how much I can do

I wasn’t sure where I would land

I didn’t know where to start

I was always set apart from others and writing was my escape plan

Thanks to my sisters, I can start again

and so

and soo

and soooo

I begin again……
