Elisabeth O’Veal Minor
Today, I have been on this earth for 44 years, that I know of. .lol.
I’ve done a lot of reflecting today and I’ve decided that I’m tired of reflecting, looking in the rearview mirror, thinking of the past! My past hurt like hell so why do I stay there? Ion even know chile, but what I do know is, I can’t keep letting my past trauma hold me down cause its too much weight on me! God always said he wouldn’t put no more on me that I could bear and guess what, he didn’t! Most of this shit I put on me and its time to unpack!
Time to unpack the jealousy, envy, hate, negative thoughts or whatever else I may have stored inside of me. I’m NO VICTIM but a VICTOR!
I’ve been taking care of people so long that I forgot to take care of me, I forgot to check in on me, I forgot to be gentle with me, I forgot to tell me I was beautiful, I forgot to tell me I loved me! I forgot to set boundaries for myself, I forgot about the STAR player…….. ME!
As mothers and wives we forget about US! Hell we ask the family if they are hungry or what they want to eat meanwhile, our STOMACHS have to tell us we are HUNGRY!
Whos checking on MAMA, whos checking in on the WIFE? We have to choose us!
All my children are grown and nobody need mama, (I did GOOD)
Now I have to take care of ME and this is by far the hardest job I’ve EVER had to do. I’ve been a mom since 16. My eldest, 27, 24, 22. 20(twins) i had ALL them and raised them ALONE and working on myself is way harder. I breast fed the twins and working on myself has nothing on that! I wish I would had known I was this fucked up …lol So now.. I Introduce Lizz to Elisabeth! any who, I’m tired of writing! yal subscribe! i did the website myself and i know its messed up lol I did the best I knew how! maybe somebody will give me the gift of fixing my site! I luv yal! Happy birth day to me
Forgive them, then forgive you! Find real #love

Today’s Adah: The Woman Who Carried a Vow She Never Made
Authors Note: This essay is personal. When I became an Eastern Star, I believed I was entering a space of sisterhood and shared values. During one meeting, we were told we needed to fundraise for a grand session, provide food, help decorate, and then also pay to attend. When they asked if anyone had questions,…
