Step Away From The Noise;

by Susan L. Kee

My Morning Cup of Coffee – It all started when I stumbled upon an inspirational post on Instagram. While reading it, I decided to Google a thought that crossed my mind. Researching on Google led me to search for a book by the author referenced in the article on Amazon. As I was browsing, I remembered something I needed to buy. Suddenly, I wondered how I ended up in this rabbit hole, just like Debra Cox sings in her song, How Did We Get Here?

We live in a world where it’s hard to escape the noise. With everything being digital, we can find anything we want in seconds. This post is for anyone who’s trying to step away from the noise. There’s an old song called “Release Your Mind” by Envogue, and the lyrics couldn’t be more accurate. It’s up to us to control our thoughts and where our fingers wander. So, let’s take a moment to disconnect from the world and gather our thoughts before it’s too late. Funkadelic said it first another way, but I digress.

I May Be Slow, But I’m Sure!

by Susan L. Kee

My Morning Cup of Coffee – Years ago, I had an undergarment that said, “I may be slow, but I’m sure.” In that, it was all it said, and it was an undergarment; what I was slow at and sure about was whatever I imagined. Even as I start my morning cup of coffee with this topic, you are wondering for yourself. Using this analogy was to get your attention; I am talking about consistency this morning. Do not belittle the idea of a slow start and small successions. In our minds, fast is sure. But like the tortoise life, experiences have taught me that while being slow to start may cause you to lose out on things, there is one thing that always happens no matter what, you get there. Being sure means being confident. Do not berate yourself for slow or small beginnings. If you are consistent in whatever you do, you can say, “I MAY BE SLOW, BUT I’M SURE.”

The Show Must Go On!

by Susan L. Kee

My Morning Cup of Coffee – If you are a performer, radio talk host, actor or television personality, or any artist, you are familiar with the words the show must go on. Faced with the prognosis of what could be my diagnosis, I begin considering what if. Allowing myself to be shaken, I began to adjust my thinking. The thoughts begin to bombard my mind. Then just as I have always encouraged you to surround yourself with like-minded people, the phone rings, and the text messages come. The phone rings again, and the tumors are benign, but a complete thyroidectomy is required. The battle of your mind is always there, but in His presence, you persevere. What are you persevering through?

Maintain While You Gain!

by Susan L. Kee

This title speaks of holding on to one thing while acquiring something else. And, while this may be true, today I am speaking specifically concerning love. Iyanla Vanzant writes in her book “In the Meantime,” that the highest expression of love is more of who you are, more of what you are, what you do, and what you have. Love can bring all of YOU together. Love, she writes, is the experience of oneness.” Since we are all unique and each relationship is different, we gain more knowledge of who we are with every relationship. The more you love you the more you can love. Stop reducing you to gain love. Maintain while you gain and then gain some more. We all have the capacity to fully love ourselves while loving someone else. #Loveforthought Have you ever found yourself loving yourself less to love someone else?
