Coming To A Close

As a lot of us are celebrating the end of another year what are some of the things that you wish you could have done differently? What are the lessons learned? I know for me I want to grow in my faith and relationship with God. I’ve been so preoccupied with me that I haven’t given time to him. Then I wonder where he is when life gets hard. The question I need to ask is where am I? I want to be more responsible in 2019 and I want to continue to grow in all the areas of my life. I want to be present and no longer live in my past or worry about the future. This is an expensive way of living because you miss opportunities when living in the past, and you don’t enjoy the present moment when worrying about the future. I will no longer rob myself. I will no longer live with the anxiety of what will be tomorrow.  I want to be more consistent with my blog and instagram. As a matter of fact please go follow me @marle1704. As I sit here and reflect 2018 has been a year of ups and downs but it’s also been the year that I finally took that first step out of fear to start my Instagram and Blog.  I’m proud of that and thankful for that opportunity. In closing thank you 2018 for teaching me to love myself, to forgive myself and to trust the journey . What lessons are you thankful for in 2018?  What will you change in 2019?

Hi my name is Marlene. I’ve always been very passionate about makeup, health, and fashion. As I got older that passion grew stronger, but what also grew was my passion for empowering single moms. I’m a single mom to a handsome, intelligent, and sweet young man name Jacob. He is truly my heart and the apple of my eye. I’ve wanted to start a blog for awhile now that would feature not only makeup, health, and fashion but everyday life. I want to be part of a community where women uplift and empower each other. You see my story wasn’t suppose to end this way. I was suppose to be happily married to a wonderful God fearing man, have 3 children, a great Nursing career, and a big beautiful home in the burbs with a white picket fence around it. So I thought!! Although all the desires of my heart have not yet been fulfilled I know that I am here for a purpose. I trust that God has a plan for me. With this blog I hope to inspire, empower, encourage, and bless women of all different walks. Please join me on this adventure we call life and lets learn from one another. I hope my blog allows and serves you a voice. Blessings, Marlene AKA single mom speaks Instagram Marle1704
