This is not for likes, sympathy or am I shading anyone (if it hits that’s on you). But simply something I need to get off my chest!! I have raised my 3 children all alone, while raising myself. I worked, educated myself, maintained my house and kept my children active academically, spiritually and structured. I never once criticized their fathers or family members or anyone else for being absent (as I always encouraged relationships). I did what I had to. Birthdays, Christmases, road trips, graduations, sicknesses, game days, picture day, school meeting I SHOWED UP prepared and ready! There were good times and bad times. I never looked for handouts or made excuses. I used all my resources until they were exhausted. Not saying I was perfect, but I hustled! My sacrifices are sufficient, and I will not apologize for doing what I had to do!!! I never choice one because there’s always been 3!
What ever it takes!

I created Green-Pastures by Her in 2017, after surviving Domestic Abuse, I was physically and mentally broken. Every day was a struggle, but every day was also an opportunity to show up for myself. Using affirmations and scripture by way of sticky notes and journaling helped me regulate my thoughts, emotions and my behavior. Reclaiming my life after trauma gave me the strength and power to be healed and restored. I stopped focusing on the people and things that broke me and I begin creating an environment of joy and peace. I grew closer to God and Spiritually searched for Greener Pastures. I prayed and I cried, I spoke life and not death. I became Fearless, Bold and Strong acknowledging “No weapons formed against, shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17) because “If God be before me who can stand against me (Romans 8:31) “and reciting “The Lord is my light and my salvation whom shall I fear (Psalm 27:1) I TRUSTED IN THE PROCESS OF THE LORD for my healing, I embraced my intentions for living and turned my problems into my purpose.
