Love Notes From Adriane

In December of 2017 I faced the one of biggest challenges of my life. I completely cut myself off from group chats, certain “friends”, and environments I have been apart of for years. I needed space and solitude.  I couldn’t face those people without faking the funk. Without faking happiness and smiles. I needed that time to reflect and cry out to God. I needed to take a step back and see my own faults and make some clear decisions without the opinion of others.

Transparent moment – Sometimes I vent to family/friends and never say a word to God about it. Yes, praying to God is the first thing we should do, but I found that I never isolated myself enough to make a full decision without any other opinion or influences.

After going through that valley, I found myself making sure, I felt comfortable. I’m loved. I’m okay. I’m happy. I’m confident. I’m accountable and most of all, I’ve grown. See its nothing like facing something hard to allow us to see the what things and people are best for us. We have to stop allowing ourselves to be in the company of those who do not genuinely care about our positive well being. We also have to move away from people who aren’t like minded. So I temporarily cut myself off from all person, places and things.

Sometimes we have to go into seclusion. Not just secluding ourselves to hear from God, but to hear from ourselves. You allowing “nouns” to influence your life?
