HUGS:
Hugs are powerful expressions of affection that nurture us from the moment we are born. Research has proven that hugs have a profound impact on our well-being, making us happier, healthier, and more resilient. They transcend romantic intimacy, symbolizing security, emotional support, love, and friendship.

This post will delve into the significance of THE BEAR (tight) HUG and THE ONE SIDED HUG. BEAR HUG: This gesture radiates warmth, security, sympathy, and love, enveloping us in a sense of comfort and reassurance.
ONE SIDED HUG: In this beautiful display of emotional support, one person gives and the other receives, conveying a powerful message of solidarity and reassurance.

Hugs have a multitude of unseen benefits, including lower levels of depression, improved heart health, reduced fears and pain, and diminished stress. They also facilitate communication with others beyond words. The renowned family therapist Virginia Satir once emphasized, 'We need four hugs for survival. We need eight hugs for maintenance.'

Are you feeling hug deficient now? Do something about it today. Hug your parents, spouse, children, neighbor, colleagues at work, school mates, and everyone in between. Share a kind word with a stranger who looks like they're in need of a friend and offer a hug of support and hope. Remember, a hug benefits both the giver and receiver. I am sending virtual hugs to you all. Stay blessed and have a 'HUGful' weekend. 😆 🤣 😂
I come in love always.

Healing 2: JEALOUSY.
Jealousy, or the Cain syndrome, is the recognition of someone's positive attributes and resenting the fact that you lack them. Jealousy is offering congratulations to someone with your lips while secretly harboring 'why not me' in your heart. Jealousy is a toxic emotion that slowly destroys its host.

The antidote to this poison can be found in self-examination, self-appreciation, and a commitment to personal growth. Genuinely rejoice with others when good things happen to them, seek what they did differently from you, and adopt such strategies.

Bear in mind that the God Who anointed David also removed the anointing from Saul. Be humble, be grateful, be compassionate, and remember to give even when it hurts.
I come in love always.

"Untimely Death"
This phrase is often used to describe the passing of individuals at a young age or under tragic circumstances. In cases where tragic deaths are intentionally caused by others, Jesus' words during the Last Supper hold significant relevance: woe unto the person responsible for another's demise. As with Jesus, whose Father in Heaven allowed His crucifixion, the ultimate fate of the victim will culminate in praise.

I firmly believe that for the young, God may permit such events to transpire because they have fulfilled their earthly purposes and are summoned to their heavenly abode to rest. This raises the question of whether those who live to an advanced age are taking an inordinate amount of time to fulfill their destinies. In response, I propose that perhaps God allows this because their prolonged existence enables them to positively impact numerous lives, whereas those who depart prematurely might exert a more profound influence through their passing.

Ultimately, we must place unwavering trust in God's infinite goodness and eternal love. His ways are inscrutable, and His timing is always perfect.

May the souls of our dearly departed loved ones, who have entered eternal repose with the promise of resurrection through Christ our Lord's mercy, rest in perpetual peace. Amen.
I come in love always.

Pray, hope and never worry. Worry steals your joy, peace of mind and is counter-productive.

Healing Journey 1:
What do you love most about yourself? This simple question should elicit a deep sense of self-appreciation and gratitude to God.

Self-loathing or constantly focusing on what society or experience has convinced us is below acceptable limits can lead to low self-esteem and envy.

Genesis 1:31 states, 'God saw all that He had made, and it was very good.' You are a part of that creation that is good. When you start believing this, you will realize that you have kept yourself miserable over man-made standards. I used to be teased about my tiny size and big head in my younger days, which was a result of sickle cell anemia. The hurt and teasing stopped when I started retorting that good things come in small packages.

Liberate yourself today by taking a deep look at yourself through the eyes of our Creator, Who placed so much value on us that He sent His only Son to die for us. You are special, and you are uniquely configured by God.
I come in love always.

Do not put sickle cell anemia in the driver's seat. Take control and build a life despite this condition.

I am not a Sickler. I am Ifeoma, born with sickle cell anemia. There is more to me than this condition. It does not define me.

"A friend had sickle cell anemia, but he's dead" is not a nice opening line when a warrior is preaching genotype compatibility.
