SINGLE AND CELEBRATING VALENTINE’S DAY

RELATIONSHIPS· SINGLE

14 Feb

I wanted to celebrate Valentine’s Day with my husband but I’m single for the 4th year. Instead of wallowing in self-pity decided Valentine’s Day is a day to celebrate LOVE!!! Single people before you cancel Valentine’s Day think again!!

Here’s some things have done over the years as a single woman:

  • iPhone photoshoot. Dress up in theme red and pink colors, put on make up, and wear high heels.
  • Brought flowers with cute vase and balloons.
  • Romantic bubble bath. Lit candles and played love music. After bath moisturized with my favorite bath and body works aromatherapy lavender chamomile sleep lotion.
  • First year single spent time with my heart who loves me unconditionally. Grandma V! Ordered delicious meal and decorated table with holiday décor. Love day is about spending time with people you love!!
  • Admired my body by kissing my body, sprayed perfume, and wore lingerie. Then posed in the mirror just to say baby your body is so hot and I love you.
  • Reflected on when I owned femininity, self love, high esteem, and positive body image by looking at my boudoir photos and video.
  • Watched love movies. Favorite love movies are love and basketball and brown sugar.
  • Brought myself a gift. Have list of gifts want to buy on standby at anytime lol
  • Wrote love letter to myself. Moment to honor and appreciate woman have become. Found my worth, wholeness, healed from past, and spiritually grounded. Kissed letter wearing red lipstick. Plan to save flowers and letter place in shadow box or picture frame for future walk in closet/glam room.
  • Had Galentine’s day with friends and church members (did that for 2nd, 3rd, and plan to this year).
  • Self – care day! Did my hair, facial, polished nails and toes! Feel my best when polished and pampered!!
  • Attend Single’s event. This year plan to check off bucket list item speed dating. FYI Churches have speed dating can mix and mingle.

SINGLES STRUGGLING WITH NOT HAVING A LOVE LIFE. LET ME ENCOURAGE YOU!

  1. Takes a strong person to refuse to settle especially if you’re over 30. I know the pressure by society, world, family, friends, and yourself to get married because you’re not getting any younger and biological clock is ticking. Be aware of friends and family members who advise you to settle because “your standards are too high” or because your “ biological clock is ticking”. Stand strong and let them know you walk by faith and God is the author of time. You don’t depend on man or world ideologies only God who performs supernatural miracles and through him all things are possible on his timing! Age ain’t nothing but a number! Honestly, family and friends who advise you to settle are not in a personal relationship with God and probably settled for their spouse or ex spouse. Not to throw shade but be careful who you take advice from including family and friends. Keep your standards high just make sure you can match your own standards.
  2. Kudos to you because didn’t settle for mediocre or ordinary love when you know deep down inside you’re extraordinary and special worthy of God’s best. Takes extraordinary person to not settle for man that cheats on you. Takes extraordinary person to not settle for person who actions don’t align with their words. Takes extraordinary person to know it’s time to let go of dead- end relationship although you still love him/her.
  3. Newly singles who are really struggling with heartbreak. Things will get better! Your heart will heal. Don’t skip the grieving process. Know it’s okay to cry and vent. Work on mistakes you made in previous relationships. Don’t rebound date allow yourself to heal and work on yourself.
  4. Cheers to you for not being bitter, jealous, or hating on others who are in love and happily married because nobody got time for that. We celebrate love with joy, smiles, and hope because love is a beautiful thing. Everyone deserves to be loved properly with Gods infinite everlasting love. Remember singleness is a gift as well as marriage.
  5. Loneliness is something you need to deal with before marriage. If you are lonely single you will be lonely married. There is a difference between ALONE and LONELY. Be honest about your loneliness. Only Jesus can satisfy you’re longing for love, completion, and wholeness. Tap into God.
  6. Live your best life! Enjoy each season of your life! Create a bucket list! Do things that rejuvenate and make your soul happy. Think about all the hard work you do and find reasons to celebrate and treat yourself. Don’t wait for anyone or perfect moment. Be all you can be. Enjoy the freedom and luxury of  doing what you want when you want. Now is the perfect time to do things you always dreamed of.
  7. Power of self – love. Learn how God loves you! Then love yourself. Must learn to love yourself first to teach people. Set standards on how people should treat you. Know you are worthy and deserving of the same love you freely give to people.
  8. Know you are not alone there is a tribe of singles waiting although I like to say preparing for God’s best. Some day soon will enjoy Valentine’s Day with your spouse and he/she will be worth it and you will thank God you didn’t settle.

DECLARE WITH ME: Singles Self – Love affirmation:

I celebrate love have in my life with family and friends instead of focusing on love life don’t have at this present moment. I love thy self first and love will always flow freely in my life. I am worthy of a love life so GRAND can’t fathom. We don’t embrace singleness. We enjoy singleness. Every season of my life is a gift to be fully enjoyed. I love myself soooo much will never allow self to be half loved or treated as an option. I am a priority and sure thing! I am worthy of true and authentic love. I love myself so much choose to share love with someone who appreciates me rather than looking for love to compensate for self love deficit. I am whole and complete in Christ alone.

HAPPY LOVE DAY!! HOPE YOU ARE ENCOURAGED!

XOXO Go Patty💋 😘

Listen to this when life knocks you down….. But Listen to this when life knocks you down…..
But first quick story about the photos. While taking photos for my compilation book last year also took photos to prepare for GET UP compilation book. I love playing dress up and this was my time to be creative. I wanted the bodysuit to reflect life obstacles that will knock you down. One of those moments was losing my grandma V who I dedicated the GET UP book to. Photoshoot outside reminds me of my grandma favorite scripture Psalm 23(The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul).

Listen to this when life knocks you down:
I WILL OVERCOME EVERY OBSTACLE
I DICTATE HOW MY LIFE WILL GO 
I AM COMMITTED TO DOING THE WORK REQUIRED TO THRIVE
 I AM A WINNER
 I AM CREATING THE LIFE I WANT AND DESERVE 
I AM DESTINED FOR GREATNESS 
NO HATER CAN STOP WHAT GOD ALREADY ORDAINED 
I AM VICTORIOUS 
I AM STRONG
I AM POWERFUL
I WILL FLOURISH AND NOT FOLD 
EVERY DISAPPOINTMENT MAKES ME STRONGER AND WISER 
ITS EITHER A BLESSING OR A LESSON
I AM A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH 
NOTHING OR NOBODY WILL STOP ME 
DELAY MEANS BETTER IS COMING
I BELIEVE IN MYSELF 
I AM EXTRAORDINARY 
I CAN DO ANYTHING I SET MY MIND TO
WHEN LIFE KNOCKS ME DOWN 
I SHALL GET UP 
I WILL GET UP 
I MUST GET UP
EVERY SINGLE TIME

THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS!!!! I OFFICIALLY HAVE A BOOK THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS!!!! I OFFICIALLY HAVE A BOOK LAUNCH DATE!!!! Reflecting back, before I collaborated with coauthors I wrote down topics wanted to include in the book. I never told the coauthors what to write about but I’m not surprised mostly what I wanted the coauthors to write about they did. My vision was to merge culture and diversity, masculinity and femininity, national and international. God did that too!

I have the audacity to barely know how to swim but I have the audacity to barely know how to swim but still enjoy water activities like jet skiing, parasailing, white water rafting, and snorkeling. I went white water rafting not 1 but 3 times. Good thing is the more you go against your fears the easier it gets. This time I was more relaxed. Next time I will jump out the boat and swim. I love this chapter in my life true relaxation. Fear has subsided. The thrill and excitement keeps me coming back. 
What do you have the audacity to keep doing despite your fears?
I stepped out the boat and decided this was my tim I stepped out the boat and decided this was my time to do something different.

Something miraculous happened the first time had 🎤 in my hand. As usual public speaking makes me anxious to the point always want to run when the opportunity comes. But the other side of me who loves a challenge decided to go for it. There was something different that sparkled in my body after I finished speaking that said “I love this and want to do it again”. Speaking on stage is nothing like virtual speaking engagements or toastmasters. I can’t believe this is my purpose and once again God isn’t a liar. If you’re afraid and insecure to run towards your purpose or dream. Start where you are, figure it out as you go, crawl then walk to face your fears, continue to practice, and always be consistent.

Attended Master the Mic 🎤 speaker workshop by t Attended Master the Mic 🎤 speaker workshop by the legend @thelesbrown to prepare for my Get Up Summit. It’s been a journey to get here, 6 years to be exact… For those walking towards their purpose who feel unsure and afraid where I was 6 years ago let the words of @sarahjakesroberts inspire you:
“I need for you to be okay with not everyone understanding the grace and anointing that is on your life. And it might be you and God for a season. Don’t worry soon enough everybody will see what God saw. But can you be OK if no one knows it but you and God. Nobody knows how talented I am. That’s all right. Let them sleep. Nobody knows how gifted I am. That’s all right. Let them sleep because you’re not ready for it to be exposed anyway. But God will sit you in a room to give you a preview of what the room feels like before the room knows that it’s you. Because I wanted you to see the character of all the people”.
