Forever Evolving

Is There A Such Thing As Being "Too Supportive"?

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Fri, 04 May 2012 02:55:00 +0000

Let's get this out the way.

1) I do believe you should always encourage your significant other to suceed. If they need motivation ,you should attempt to be that motivator.

Okay, that being said, I do feel there can be times where you can be TOO SUPPORTIVE of your significant other. Shouldn't us as adult individuals have self-motivation?

A man,....a real man shouldn't need a woman to CONSTANTLY encourage him to DO MORE, WANT MORE.....that should come naturally or so I thought...

I've pondered this question for a long time now and I've realized, in my opinion, that it all depends on what one expects in a partner and what you are willing to settle on or not settle on.

MY MUST-HAVES IN MY FOREVER LOVE:

DRIVE
BE A NATURAL HUSTLER
AMBITION
A NEED FOR CONSTANT GROWTH

LOVE,

Ash

For some sanity. For some clarity. And maybe for some self-realization. These are the reasons I’ve decided to come back to blogging. There is no specific thing, subject, etc. that I want to talk about. This blog is about my thoughts, my life, my journey……simple…things all living beings can relate to.

My only goal here is to grow, possibly receive and give advice, and simply share my journey (no matter how long or short it may end up being) with the people.

to you

time is suppose to bring growth
suppose to bring wisdom
a smarter self and more realization of self

every night i pray time makes you
a better man
a better son of God

somehow love will find its way in your
realm of what is important
and maybe then i can no longer be misunderstood

By Me.......i think this is something i will always feel....

After everything,
you still ask more of me.

After.....
writing you letters to keep your spirits high and our love in the sky;
forgiving you once after you broke my heart;
trying to give you sunshine even when the rain pours
supporting you through good, bad, ups, and downs
after seeing you in and seeing your out
and forgiving you twice after you broke my heart
giving you all of me and more

You still ask more of me?

Instead of giving you me, I will give you you.

By Me.....(longtime ago----diff state of mind but decided to put up)

Be My....

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 07:55:00 +0000

Be My.....

My Honey, My Love
I love you-----yes that I do
But let me tell you what I need you to be

I need you to be my

My protector------guard me from the harms of the world, defend me from those who intend harm, shield me of pain......Just love me.

I need you to be my

Lover------intrigue me, caress me, take my mind to a place its never been, let my body experience pleasure like no other, and my soul----I need you to undress my soul---slowly. Just love me.

I need you to be my

Leader------direct me to eternity; I want to follow your Godly path, command respect, show me how to have an overflow of understanding. Just love me.

My mind, my body, my soul yearns for your love, your protection, and your guidance.

My Honey. My Love. My Man.

By Me....awhile ago (lol)

Marriage.....Ugh!!! (in a good way)

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 07:15:00 +0000

How do you know when you are ready to marry?.....This is what one of my pastors told me....

you are ready when.....

you have a silhouette in your mind of the kind of man/woman you will choose to marry and when you have resolve in your mind you will not settle for less
when you do not have to compromise any aspect of your relationship with God in order to be with the person to whom you are attracted
when you are willing to be single rather than make a bad choice of a husband or a wife
when you are becoming the person that your ideal mate is praying about meeting

What ya think????

CHARACTER ATTRACTION

choosing on character attraction-------Genesis 24: 3-14

to be of family

PURITY IS GOD'S CHARACTER TEST!!!

God wants us to be like Him. (I Peter 1:13-19)------self-control, grace, do not conform to evil desires---be Holy.
Evidence of purity
Character refers to things that have been etched so deeply into a person's soul that they are lasting marks, not easily changed
Character is manifested in holiness.

ATTRACTION II

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 07:02:00 +0000

Attraction: a feature or characteristic that allures you to someone

Physical attraction goes beyond sight; it encompasses all of our senses.

"Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes; your name is like perfume poured out."

- Song of Solomon 1:3

ATTRACTION

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 06:58:00 +0000

a man's man; slightly rugged; witty; down-to-earth, calm; caring, honest, trustworthy;intelligent, ambitious; supportive; pleasing to me and likes to please me; relationship with God; strong; expressive, and affectionate.

Thats what I like!!!

WHAT MATTERS MOST

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 08:15:00 +0000

"No matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love." - I Corinthians 13:3

Life is all about love.

The most important lesson God wants you to learn on earth is how to love.

Life without love is really worthless.

Busyness is a great enemy of relationships.

"These three things continue forever: faith, hope, and love. And the greatest of these is love."

- I Corinthians 13:13

"The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love" - Galatians 5:6

The Best Expression of Love is Time

When you give someone your time, you are giving them a portion of your life that you will never get back.

Words alone are worthless.

Quote of the Day

"Do not indulge your ego at the expense of your soul."

-I Peter 2:11

RESENTMENT :-(

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 07:50:00 +0000

Ongoing battle in my mind and heart

If someone has hurt you, can you forgive???

I feel as if I can forgive but absolutely CANNOT forget!!

Once you forgive, can you go on and continue a relationship with person?

I definitely think it is possible, but it would be very difficult and I think counseling would be very helpful. I struggle with thoughts of the past always lingering around in my head!!!

In my opinion, I believe anyone who truly loves someone and cares for them, could not repeatedly continue to hurt them and make the same mistakes. Any relationship of such instances, I feel, should be re-evaluated thoroughly.

What I need help with is.......how do you forgive and still not have some sort of resentment toward the person you've forgiven??? HELP!!

One Year Later.....Growth??

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 07:41:00 +0000

Over a year ago, while reading "Purpose Driven Life", I wrote somethings about my personality that I struggle with. They are as that I am easily angered, my inability to ask for help, worrisome (only in certain aspects of my life), and to learn to follow through with all goals and dreams I set for myself.

I've been thinking alot lately about my growth in my personal life. I definitely think I've grown alot as far as controlling my emotions, but at the same time I didn't have another outlet to express them. I feel like instead of actually controlling them, maybe I just kept them hidden adn used work as an excuse ot a distraction from actually dealing with them or expressing them.

NEW GOAL: start back writing and start painting(again) to help express my emotions

I still find it hard to ask for help from others and I know its because I associate depending on someone else for anything to failure.

I wouldn't say that I am less worrisome, but I have realized there are things I have no control over!

As far as my goals and dreams = still a work in progress!!!

Loving these shoes.....work it Elise!!

Every Woman Deserves......

noreply@blogger.com (Ashley Peters) — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 19:35:00 +0000

So the other night I was looking through all my old magazaines.....and I found an article in Glamour mag. from October 2008 and it was titled 20 Things Every Woman Deserves From The Guy In Her Life.

I just wanted to share the ones that I def agree with......

His undivided attention at important moments

Compliments that are actually spoken outloud

Good manners

His utter lust and unwavering devotion to you and your body

Acknowledgement of you relationship to family, friends, and even Facebook (LOL!)

A call--not a text--that actually comes when he said it would

Encouragement

Respect

Love for her and all her quirks!!

I think these are things any woman would want...and I am sure there is plenty more....LoL.....(to each its own)...The Facebook comment had me laughing....I never dated anyone who had a profile on any of those social networks...which is weird since pretty much everyone does....I tend to be attracted to guys who are just laid back and not really into social networks on the internet....even though I am...LOL....opposites attract I guess....However, I have heard many stories about people in relationships fighting over things found on websites like this....so-called internet flirting and what not or just not even recognizing each other on their perspective profiles....honestly, it seems all kiddy to me but then again, I never been in that situation.

Back to the mag, they also listed a few things that you man deserves. Such as...

Your backing and support when he takes a risk

Guilt-free boys night out

Patience when he says the wrong thing

Heads-up when he really needs to listen

Freedom to be himself

I agree with these also.....however, that listening one....Guys, just listen all the time and you won't have to worry!

Love Life. Peace.

Aries Lovers

Aries Lovers:

"There are no half measures with Aries; they are either right into a relationship or completely uninterested. Impulsive by nature they are super-quick when it comes to falling into sexual lust. They tend to be romantic and need a lover who won't drive them crazy because, when under emotional pressure, Aries can let the rest of their lives fall apart.

To an Aries love and sex is as necessary as drinking and eating and they can become irritable, argumentative and unwell where their sex life slows down. To often the Aries set sights on someone they know is not suitable for them and, while they might relish the resulting drama, they soon become bored as indeed, they also do, with someone who is easy to be around.

Arians are exciting bed mates that are happy to take the lead and, are generally always ready for more. They are turned on by spontaneous and novel sex and, the more outrageous, the better. They tend toward sexy thrills and might have some very kinky fantasies.

The Arian can be impatient and somewhat selfish. Their organism is the number one priority. They like their own space, can be instantly turned off by an over- possessive lover and, upon the withdrawal of sexual favours by a partner, swiftly turn their attention into the arms of another.

Aries erogenous areas centre on the head and face so; light finger attention to lips, cheeks and hair is a sure way to generate an amorous reaction from an Aries partner.
Best Bed Mates for the Arian: Sagittarius, Leo, Aries, Gemini & Aquarius."
