Don’t let anyone put their opinion of others on you. Sometimes it can be your downfall not to take their advice, but try to get to know the individual for yourself. Someone is probably always putting them in a box for what they’ve done in the past so there is no chance for change. When you really think about it which one of us is perfect? ” He who go without sin, cast the first stone”. Sometimes my husband describes me as a kid that shouldn’t talk to strangers and with that comes disappointment because let’s face it everyone doesn’t always have your best interest at heart. When someone ends up disappointing me, I pray to God not to let that person make me bitter or change who I am within.
Helping others doesn’t always mean it has to be with money, you can help someone with a kind gesture or smile, your time or a listening ear. I’m constantly saying to myself, “why aren’t things in life that should be normal so abnormal.” When did being nice become a surprise?
Tip of the day: Find the joy in your trials.
Didn’t intend on stopping traffic.

So very true. But righr now im going through something where i feel me being so nice is getting taken advantage of. So i kind of push myself away from those people
oh but you look very beautiful and free spirited I need to get to that state in life. love you sis
agreed! it seems like people are really surprised when they see someone doing something nice. It's no longer the norm. Everyone want to be mean and vicious. It take more energy for the latter and they don't understand that. I don't promote any type of hate from anyone and when I see someone doing it i try to stop it but there is just so much that you can do to help.
on the other hand I love how you styled those shoes! LOVE IT! =)
I am so glad that you take the time out to get to know people for yourself. I got into a heated discussion with one of my best friends about something similar this weekend. I am one of those people who believe 100% in the power of change. There is nothing worse than having a negative trait and doing nothing about it. God is still molding me into the vessel he intended and it takes a special person to realize the potential and good a person possesses. As you know, your husband is only trying to protect you and guard you. It’s only natural for him to want to shield you from the malicious people of this world.
I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Your hair looks absolutely amazing. I did not have the chance to try something new this weekend, so I will keep you posted when I do.
God bless,
Grace
Hot Dress I'm feeling that!!
Beautiful Tanya!!! This is so true – thanks for sharing. I can't wait to get to L.A. so we can hang out you & I and Sabrina. Keep the blogs coming.
This is so true. I have learned to do this for myself. I have missed out on wonderful relationships because I prejudged someone based on another person's opinion. I also have learned to give people more than one chance. I used to judge people using only my first impression, but everyone has bad days. My perception of a few people has changed after really getting to know them. Love the shoes, BTW.
Stunning look, darling!
Love this dress on you ~ not surprising that you stopped traffic!
And your advice is always lovely – thanks!

WOHOOOOO HOT MAMA… I WANT THOSE SHOES…..
Love the mix of highs and lows! How awesome are those heels and that clutch! 🙂 Love !
I think there is so much distrust and cheating that people have become cynical of anyone who is nice. It is a rare commodity. Sad but the truth. But then one needs to have the intuition and gut feeling to know whom to trust and whom not to trust!
My new quote is " Everyone deserves a second chance. However, you are not obligated to be the one to give it to them". The bible emphasizes love and loving others. But it also mentions guarding your heart. We often forget that "hurt people, hurt people" (other people). Its like a vicious cycle. We must be conscious not to be so consumed in trying to be loving to everyone else that we in turn neglect loving ourselves by accepting bad treatment. We must simple know when to say "when"!
Soo true….. Everytime I come to your blog I totally get something from all of your entrys. Your dress is soo cute. So much style. Get um girl… You always Rock!!!!!!!!!! Love ya
I promise God always finds the right message for me at the right moment every time…and it's been through you lately. I've been saying this for a while now…thank you for reaffirming it for me. God bless. XX
oh, and shoes…YES!!!!!!
geez those heels are fierce!
Love it! And you keep being you! Sweet and kind! 🙂
You're always just so fab and your shoe game is ridiculous. Love that dress.
Such a cute combo…I like the tribal pattern on the dress and I love that blazer with the little design. The shoes are on fire!!!! Yes you are very right a kind gesture does not always have to be something material it could be the simplest thing as asking someone if they need help with something, opening the door for and elder person, saying hi to someone with special needs and telling them you like something about them….. I could go on and on! 😉 My comment is a little off edge lol but you will see the relation.
As women we have remember that little girls look up to us…they watch when we dont know they are watching…if you have a daughter you know. Lets just be kind to eachother and live life to the fullest..When people dont love self, they cant be loved by others nor will they give love.
Luv it! All of it!
I Love it. Dress, jacket, shoes and cluth. You look so Savvy! You're such a show stopper! Smooches
