Brave At Heart

The Brave Heart.

You know the type.

Maybe it’s you.

Take everyone problems and heartache, then turn into yours.

What I have learned in life is that you can’t be brave with your heart.

I can’t fight your battles for you.

But what I can do is continue to fight my battles.

Fight them with courage, faith and persistence.

Through that, I hope it can inspire you to push through yours.

To know you’ll make it.

To know that you are enough and all the endeavors you face are merely a challenge for you to grow.

To grow emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

It’s okay to be there for people.

To speak life and love into them.

But what you cannot do.

Be brave with your heart for their battles.

To love is to let go.

Sometimes you have to love them from a distance.

Isolation turns into elevation.

Continue to love them through their battles.

You have to let them be brave with their heart.

Fight to make it stronger. So that they can love stronger.

Allow them to go through the motions. So that their love has endurance.

Hurt, hurt so that they can understand pain and never want you to feel it.

Become at peace with who they are. By knowing oneself it allows a different level of love.

“Love yourself first and everything else falls into line.” – Lucille Ball

If someone can love them self, that allows for them to know how to be loved. To know how to love.

These type of people will never ask you to put your heart on the line for them.

Sincerely,

♥The BraveHeart♥

You water me…

You water me.

I water you.

We water one another.

We all our seeds.

Already planted.

Our soil is already set.

But we need our water to grow.

The things you pour in that soil, on the leafs, into the roots of the plant, it makes the flower grow.

In any relationship, friendship, business partnership or any “ship” you have to be able to pour into one another.

In order to vulnerable, I need you to pour into me.

To give me something to trust.

To make me feel like I could bloom in us.

To show me you have something worth while.

To brighten my day when the sun isn’t shining.

To help me stay rooted in my values, my principles when days I feel weak.

On days when I lean, when I don’t feel as strong, I can lean on you to get my self back right.

When I shed a pedal or two, you still tell me how beautiful I am.

Just waterme.

But let me water you.

Sincerely,

Jarrett M. 

It goes on…

The sun always rise. 

The sun always set. 
No matter what you go(grow) though.

Life keeps moving. 

You can’t get behind it because you’ll never be able to catch up. 

The most unstoppable flow. 

It needs no rest. 

It has no feelings. 

Life has one job and does it beyond a expert lever. 

Do you know life’s job? 

Sincerely, Jarrett M. 

Your love should…

Your love should give wings not weights.

Your love should ignite fires.

Your love should…♥♥

Your love should free minds, bodies and help free spirits.

Your love shouldn’t have boundaries, yet break every barrier or bar from the cell of what you’ve been trapped in for the time that you’ve thought you’ve been in love.

Your love should uplift.

Your love should be strong.

Your love shouldn’t be questioned.

Your love should be intentional.

Your love should reach internationally.

Your love should have purpose.

You should love on purpose.

You should love…

Good Night

But I close my eyes to take me back to the night. That’s where I hear your voice, see your face. In the light you seem to find a way to blur with the way of the world. Your voice is distorted by the sounds of life. In the night you give me so much light. To feel like myself, it’s just you and I, no body else. A everlasting dream that I chase every night. When I close my eyes I pray that I go back to that place every night, but as soon as I find you the sun start working its way back to shine bright… 

I wish it was 4 am forever. So I could have you to myself forever. 

Sincerely, 

The morning 🌅 

1 or 1

Day 1 or 1 day

It’s all about 1.

It all comes down to one.

1 choice.

1 decision.

1 opportunity.

You have to start with 1.

The beauty of life is that we have the ability every day that you’re blessed to wake up, you have the power to create a new beginning. It’s ok to start over. We fear beginnings and look forward to the end. The beginning is all.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Not at the end.

The joy of a new morning.

A new child birth.

A fresh start.

New car smell.

It’s all about that 1, without it, there’s no 2 or 3.

We celebrate being number 1.

Make your 1’s count.

Until you decide to make today Day 1 vs 1 day. You’ll stay put.

In all languages and cultures around the world. The numbers with value start with 1.

Perspectives of 1 day is that 1+1 always adds up, and as you know with numbers, they don’t end. You’ll start to look back and the 1 days you said, are just now days wasted. A ZERO

We’ve all heard the phrase “make today count or count the days.” It’s pretty much that simple.

If you get your 1, then you can get the 2,3 etc…

Let’s work on making today Day 1.

Day 1 to live in your purpose.

To be happy.

To be free.

To live.

Not to worry.

Not to fear.

It’s that day. That day is 1.

one.

I’m Just…

I’m just a man that wants to be loved.

I’m just a man who wants to love whole heartedly.

I’m just a man who wants to make all my love ones proud.

I’m just a man who thrives to one day be a great father and beyond legendary husband.

I’m just a man like the other 3,477,829,638 men on this planet.

I’m just a man like the 12 men that has landed on the moon.

I’m just a man who at one time was a boy, just a young child with dreams.

Dreams to change the world.

To make people smile.

To make people heal from pain.

I’m just a man who sometimes can be found up shits creek without a paddle.

I’m just…

I’m just sometimes lost in my mind and use my words to create a light in the darkness of my mind.

I’m just a man who… A man who gives it my all.

Even if it’s not perfect, I know that the man that I just am gave it my all.

I’m just a man who learned patience.

Learned to hear God voice through silence.

Learned that the more I sacrifice for the great good the more blessings He would bring to my life.

I’m just a man.

But more so than that.

I’m still that boy.

A fearless dreamer.

A fealess lover.

 

The Marathon

 

Slow down.

 

As a kid, many of us heard the story of the tortoise and the rabbit. We all know the outcome.

We hear phrases such as “the human race”. What’s the race? Where is the finish line?

So let’s look at life as a race. In a race, it’s not about how you start, but how you finish. You find numerous stories and highlights of world-class runners who start the race great, but don’t finish and/or finish in a low place. The fastest man ever is Usain Bolt. In countless interviews I’ve had the pleasure of watching of him, he explains his method of starting slow actually. He does not give full effort until about the 30th meter of a 100 meter sprint. He know’s he’ll burn out if he gave max effort the whole 100 or 200 meter race. He understands when he needs to be at his peak speed versus coming out the line the fastest.

Back to life. We all are in a rush to get no where fast. Remember in elementary school, it was a good thing to be the first person done with your work, then the teacher always ask “did you double-check your work?”. Meaning, just because you did it the fastest, is it the work right?  In traffic you always see the person who’s weaving in and out of lanes darting to get stopped at a red light, and even though they were there first, you some how seem to pull up next to them at that light. lol No where fast. Speed kills, in sports, however in life, it can kill. Kill dreams, hope, confidence and self-esteem.

Life is a marathon.

There’s no sprinting involved.

The big thing about marathons is finding your pace.

Understanding the impact of every stride.

Know that every stride you take toward your goals has a meaning.

When you try to go to fast, you lose steps. Your body can’t keep up.

Just like in life.

You may see someone who you may consider a head of you in the race.

But that may be their peak speed.

And all of us have different times in life where we peak.

You can’t keep up with life.

Life will always pass you by. In fact, life will lap you time and time and time again.

How many times do you want to see life pass you by?

Find your stride.

Know your steps.

Marathon runners can’t see the finish line.

They know how much time it takes to get the distance accomplished.

In life, there are no finish lines. So where are we going so fast? To the same point that every else who’s breathing has a chance to get? To run the race like the rabbit? To get comfortable being ahead? When you’re never ahead in life. The clock doesn’t stop and the race of life never ends. Let’s slow down. Make every stride matter. Find your pace and dominate it.

His & Hers Perspective | The Notorious Deal Breakers When Dating Someone New Featuring Jarrett Mines

Hi, Blog Friends!!!! Site Moved to: RockYourLuv.Com

Welcome back beautiful people to RockYourLuv.com; where self-love is the priority and no topics are off-limits. This week is very special for me. As you may can tell from the title I will not be writing this article alone. From Cleveland, Ohio I have super producer/writer/blogger Jarrett Mines from Edukated Dropout. Jarrett accolades include producing for rapper Machine Gun Kelly on his former hit single “Wild Boy” which made its debut in 2012. When you are finished reading this article please click his link and indulge in his blog. There he talks about love from the perspective of a man and his untold stories from his younger life.

In a generation where most millennials are pursuing careers, traveling the world, and becoming their own bosses; dating increasingly feels impossible. Deal Breakers are clear factors that lead  to crucial decisions to depart yourself from a relationship.

Here are ten deal breakers from each perspective:

Color Me Bad..

It’s just the surface.

A brush of paint (melanin).

Underneath we’re all the same.

A deep vision from the greatest creator ever.

A lot of love, pain and joy with confusions of this flesh.

With the same color running through our veins yet we still don’t understand we’re just the same.

The greatest joy, a mom and dad welcoming into the world there sweetest joy,

A baby girl or boy.

Praying for health.

No matter the wealth.

Rich or poor, the love is strong.

Just trying to keep their piece of art warm in a world that can be cold as negative 53.

But see you; all you see is the color of the brush.

The time we live cares nothing about surface, but how you break ice at the top of the iceberg to get below the surface.

From gunshot wounds to scrapes from falling of bikes with no brakes it’s something we all just can’t escape.

That’s you.

Who you are.

The make-up can highlight your cheeks and the dentist can whiten your teeth, but it’s up to you to show what lies beneath.

A beautiful soul from most of us who have the greatest story never told like Ali, from stories of cooking with granny, fear of flying or getting stung by a bee.

Life is the same.

It’s time to put the hues up, stop worrying about who’s what and take the minutes, hours, days to show the world who’s us.
