Zion Brew's Blog: Zion's Jewels - Posts Tagged "love"

Good afternoon lovely jewels.
There was a meme in my inbox today. It was sent to me from someone I rarely communicate with. I have not seen this person since my UNF days, but they know my experience. They check up on me sometimes too❤❤.
All in all, you never know who is rooting for you. Sometimes the negative noise can drown out the positive cheers, but you must ignore the negativity and keep moving forward. The meme simply said "SEND THIS TO EVERYONE YOU WANT TO SEE WIN", and it brought a smile to my face. The small things always makes me smile the biggest🤎. If you are cheering for somone or people, share this message with them. You never knw what a little encouragement can do. Enjoy ur day too.

This is a day that we set aside to celebrate our moms. To show and give them even more appreciation for raising us. As we celebrate it, it is important to remember that, mother, is more than a noun. It is also a verb. A title that involves continous action.
Today, I will spotlight my mom. She is a wonderful woman who has a dellighful and caring soul. She birth me. She nurtured me. She raised and prepared me for the world. She enjoyed every minute of it too.
As I begin to journey in the world, a huge obstacle stood in my way. While living out my 'dorm days', I was diagnosed witb a medical condition.
My whole world was stopped in one moment. Flipped upside down. Everything I planned for my life was now destroyed.
I had two things though, the Lord and my momma. My mom was and still with me in this journey. She does not complain or anything. She is an amazing woman and I thank the Lord for giving me her. I pray that I am being the best daughter to her as possible.
I love you momma and happy mother's day. Happy mother's to all the mothers readIng this as well.

Love and Forgiveness

Jewels of my Heart is a story about love and forgiveness. It's sequal, Forever My Jewels, shows the strength and endurance those two emotions possess.
Love is not only spoken, it is shown in everything we do. It is a Spiritual fruit that comes easy to most. Their journey is not full of sunshine, but their roots are strong and keeps their love alive.
Life is not perfect. Storms brew. Sometimes, they pass by your home and other times your home takes a direct hit. You do not fight the storm, but prepare for it.
When it is unexpected, you endure it. You protect yourself at all costs. When you love someone you will do the same. You will endure the storm.
Understanding and forgiveness are keys to this. Enduring storms and forgiving one another does not mean you should be foolish.
It means you understand mistakes happen in life. Repeated behavior is not a mistake. Manipulation is not a mistake. Disresprect is not a mistake and so on.
My characters, Tony and Jewels, understand this. Life is not perfect for them, but their love "endureth". Their root is strong and their happiness continues to blossom.
"...Baby, I vow to continue to love you the way Christ loved the church..." -Tony,

Father's Day

Over the years, I have realized that society has a tendency to overlook Father's Day when compared to Mother's Day. Fathers are pretty much overlooked overall.
We highlight good mothers while ignoring the bad ones. We highlight bad dads while ignoring the good ones.
Even on a day set aside for them, I see people wishing them a Happy Father's Day, but adding things like, "to the real ones", "to the ones in their children's lives", etc.
On Mother's Day, people only say, Happy Mother's Day. Bad parents exist in both sexes. Fathers are important as well and should be recognized the same.
Today, I want to say Happy Father's Day. Enjoy your day dads! It is well deserved. 💛💛💛

The Good, The Bad,
The Ugly
🤎
Rejoicing, Rejuvenation,
Revelations


It has been one year since my first born was published, #jewelsofmyheart. It has been a wonderful experience. The good, the bad, and the ugly have been wonderful.
Even my battle with Amazon was wonderful. I believe everything happens for a reason and that battle taught me new things. This year has been an eye opening and learning experience for me as well. I loved it!
Things/people were removed and things/people were added. I was able to have deep and thought provoking conversations. Weights were lifted that I had no clue I was carrying and a new burst of joy flowed through me.
Some of you know about my health battles. It hit me fast. I had to withdraw from school, talk to my professors, talk with my scholarship advisor, move out of my dorm, etc, all in one week. At the same time, I was preparing myself for an emergency surgery.
I had no clue what was next. Now, I am celebraring one year of my first published baby. Promoting my second one, #forevermyjewels and a journal, #loveandforgiveness. There is another one in the works as well.
My author journey has been wonderful! I know my Father will keep it that way. He has yet to take my smile and joy from me and I thank Him.
