Honestly featuring Avery Sunshine by Boney James

Honestly I don’t need any promises, I just need you. That’s what she sings in this beautiful jazz ballad. I love anything by Avery Sunshine but this song touched my heart because of the simplicity of the meaning.

A Letter to My Heart

Dear Heart,

How are you? I know I keep you at a distance but I feel you often. You know it’s difficult for me to open that door. It only stays open but a short moment at a time. That’s about all I can handle. My Heart was not built to withstand the vulnerabilities of love. At least that’s what they kept trying to tell me. You know the advisors that are always whispering into your ear. Trying to convince you that your Heart is misleading you and it can’t be trusted.

Yes, that is what they have said. But I don’t believe them anymore. See I have watched you over the past year and I see something different inside you. You are moving a little quicker, pumping just a little harder, working very hard to build momentum. You are loving again! It looks good on you. Your color has changed and you smile more.

But heart my dear, I don’t want to be rescued because it indicates that I am weak, a victim needing assistance. I would much rather be redeemed. Being redeemed indicates that he is investing in my worth. But how will she be redeemed when she doesn’t know her worth? When she settles for far less than her father ever sought for his princess.

Yes dear, I learned that you must love self-first, good or indifferent. You must love yourself. You should be able to look at yourself in the mirror and love all of you. Say to yourself in your current state. “I love you despite what you have done, you are worthy of so much more!”

Love who you are as you strive to live on purpose. Love the journey and grow, alone first. You must know yourself intimately before you allow another to know you that way. My dear heart this is how you guard yourself. Stay focused on your destiny and keep growing. Keep loving openly and honestly it will make you thrive. Love yourself dear heart, on purpose!

Fedora loves you.

Peace

Until the Pain is Gone by Daley ft. Jill Scott

Oh ooh oh
Oh ooh oh

Try to see this through my eyes
Cause you’re not the only one confused
In this world where love is prone to lose
Still I’m ready to give this thing a try
But how do I give to someone
Who wants what they can’t have

So if you need love, say it
I know that you feel it but I can’t
Keep holding on and on and on
I need to be the only one
Yeah, cause I know that you get lonely

So show me the things you’re scared to show me
And we can go on and on and on
‘Til the pain is gone

I don’t even know if I believe in love
But in it with you I’d like to be
I’ve just been so cynical baby
So can you convince me change my mind?
We can leave all those demon days behind
Cause, didn’t I mention
I have nothing but good intentions for you

So if you need love, say it
I know that you feel it but, I can’t
Keep holding on and on and on
I need to know that I’m the one
Yeah cause I know that you get lonely

So show me the things you’re scared to show me
We can go on and on and on
‘Til the pain is gone
(‘Til the pain is gone)

The pain that you knew before (The pain that you knew before)
It don’t matter any more

So if you need
So if you need love, say it
I know that you feel it but, I can’t
Keep holding on and on and on (Can’t keep holding one)
I need to know that I’m the one
Yeah cause I know that you get lonely
So show me the things you’re scared to show me
We can go on and on and on
Until the pain is gone, pain is gone

Facing Fears

Lovers,

I almost crashed and burned but I survived. That’s how the fear feels when you are bombarded with anxious thoughts. It’s no secret lovers that I am afraid of love. There I said it. Was is that bad? No, but it was liberating. So, for once instead of running away from my heart, I decided to run towards him. Still scared yes, but more scared of not experiencing our love.

So, facing my fears has forced me to crush the pain in my heart from old wounds. Allowing new love to burst its way into my being once again. It’s scary, its beautiful, its life and I love it!

It starts today! Make your declaration!

Hear their words in the song:

So sick of trying
So tired of lying
Past the point of dying
No compromising
And that fire we had girl just couldn’t survive the rain
Heard the weather man telling us that it was gonna shower some pain[Hook:]
Sometimes we want to work so bad we stay too long
Then too long turns to too much
Cuz too much’s how two hearts crushSometimes it gets too much
A lot of everything but no love
Just too much
That’s how two hearts crush

Arguing about everything
And having sex just to make me happy
Our folks think we got everything
But they don’t know that we so unhappy
Every time I hear a love song on the radio
I think of what we used to have but ain’t got no more
Like that fire we had girl just couldn’t survive the rain
Heard the weather man telling us that it was gonna shower some pain

[Hook:]
Sometimes we want to work so bad we stay too long
Then too long turns to too much
Cuz too much is how two hearts crush

Sometimes it gets too much
A lot of everything but no love
Just too much
That’s how two hearts crush

[x2]
I swear it feel like pain got a thang for me
It’s like love want me to be in pain and want me to leave
I swear it feel like pain got a thang for me
It’s like love want me to be in pain and want me to leave

He goes so deep
Especially
When he’s trying
To keep

To his heart
To love

Her Body
Her Mind
Her Soul
Her Spirit

His Beloved

She will
Be

Lovers,

I am in a great space right now. Peace has found her way into my heart, she pours out to as many who will receive her. Yes. I am at peace within myself and content. Have you ever taken a vow to love?

Why would we need such a vow? We should love freely but sometimes we want more in return. This can sometimes cause ripples in your peace. But they’re necessary at times. The ripples keep us in reality, in our truth. I love naturally but it has cost me over the years. I learned to be more discerning rather than to cut my heart off.

Being mad all the time takes too much energy. I don’t know any angry people who are happy and peaceful. So I choose to love instead of being angry. Yes love is a choice.

This may sound simple but it’s not. I have a few people close to me who I could rightfully be angry with but I chose not to. That doesn’t mean that I allow them to use me or anything. I just choose to focus my energy on positive emotions and not negative outcomes.

I have taken a vow to love all those God allows me to reach. So that is what I will continue to do Lovers!

More to come….

Fedora Loves you. Peace
