Intro to my blog! 

Hello, my Shinning Star Butterflies! It's your girl, Brandee back with another blog post! Happy Wednesday or in other countries, Happy Thursday! I hope everyone is doing well and amazing! If not, that's okay! Everything happens for a reason and you're going to have better days! Never give up because you have people who love you very much and if you don't have anyone who loves you, y'all have me who loves y'all so much! Each of my Shinning Star Butterflies matter to me and I care about y'all so much! Just know that I love each and one of y'all so much! I will always care about y'all so much and I will never give up on y'all because I care! On Monday's blog, I talked about my Christmas presents! I loved each and one of my Christmas presents so much! I loved my eye shadow palette by Morphe with the collaboration of James Charles! I also loved my mini fridge with the freezer on top! Everything that I got was so awesome and so cool! I loved it all! For today's blog post, I will be talking about my goals for 2022! I will be talking about what are my goals for 2022? Why did I choose those as my goals? How am I going to achieve these goals? What is so significant about those goals and why those goals so significant? Should I get started with this blog? I think I shall! Let's get started!!  

How do I define the word "goal"? Why do I define goal like that? 

The way that I define the word goal is trying to achieve your goals that you have been dreaming of achieving for so long. Either is a long dream that you had or a short dream that you thought of from a few months ago. A goal can be a long dream or a short dream. Goals can't be achieved over night. It takes a long time to chase your goals but the one thing that I can tell you is to never give up on your goal or goals! As long as you believe that you can achieve your goals, you can do it! I believe in you 200%! Always believe in yourself! When no one else believes in you, believe in yourself! You're the only person you can't give up on! The reason why I do define goal like that is because goals don't take over night to achieve! They can take months or years to achieve and if you believe that you can achieve your goals, then you can do it! Never give up on your goals! Always believe in yourself and always aim high for the stars!! 

What are my goals for 2022? Why did I choose those as my goals?

What are my goals for 2022? Well! Y'all maybe wondering what are my goals for 2022! My goals for 2022 is to be happy, become a better writer, learn to forget the past, and loose weight. Why did I choose those as my goals? The reason why I choose those as my goals is because I feel like happiness is really important. I feel like happiness is very important is because if you aren't happy around other people, then how are you going to be happy around others? You need to be happy within yourself before you can be happy around other people! The reason why I choose to become a better writer is because I want to write more about serious topics that people may not pay attention to or they ignore what's going on in the world. I feel like people don't watch there surroundings when they need to and sometimes in different parts of the world can be so dangerous that it can scare a lot of people. So, I want to become a better writer by writing more serious topics about what is going on in the world and stuff like that. I feel like as a woman, I feel like I should warn other women and men as well because there is psycho women out there as well to watch for their surroundings and make sure they are safe as well!! My third goal that I would love to achieve in 2022 is learn to forget the past! The reason why I choose that as my goal is because I tend to bring up the past a lot and I have a hard time to forget the past. The reason why I tend to not forget my past is because my past hurt me a lot and you can forgive what hurt but you can't forget what hurt you the most and I want to forgive what hurt me and move on from my past! The fourth and final goal that I want to achieve in 2022 is loosing weight! The reason why I choose that as my goal is because I am tired of not eating healthy and I feel like I am not happy in my own skin, so I had to change! I am happy that I choose to loose weight and eat healthier!!! 

How am I going to achieve these goals?

Y'all are probably wondering, "Brandee, how are you going to achieve these goals"? Well, my Shinning Star Butterflies! The way I am going to achieve these goals is by focusing on each of them individually. I am going to focus on them individually and then, once I am finished on the first one and then, I am going to focus on the second goal. Goals don't take over time to achieve! They can take months or even years to achieve and I want to try to achieve these goals! Yes, I deserve to be happy! I want to be happy again because I feel like happiness should come to me and I want happiness in my life. I am praying that I can be happy again! I am praying that I can become a better writer and learn to forget my past. Becoming a better writer won't be easy but I know that I can do it! I know that I can help educate people about being safe out in the world and just watch for your surroundings. Just be safe wherever you go and make sure you have someone with you! Learning how to forget your past won't be easy either! When something or someone hurts you from your past, you can't forget it but you can learn to move on from it and I will try to move on from my past because if I move on from my past, it will make me a stronger person and I want to be that strong person that I am!!! I remember struggling with loosing weight and it was so hard because I would go on these diets and it wasn't easy but now, I work out pretty much everyday and eat somewhat healthy! I do drink mostly water though. I cut out sodas and kool aid. I drink one cup of kool aid at times but it mainly water and I am so proud of myself!!! 

What is so significant about those goals? 

Y'all maybe thinking to y'all selves, "Brandee, what is so significant about those goals"? Well, the significance of those goals is I want to be happy! I feel like being happy is very important. I feel like if I am happy, then everyone around me can be happy as well. I love to smile and I want to be happy! I can't be happy and down at the same time. If I am sad, how can I be happy? I want to be happy again and I am praying that I can be happy again! The significance behind me becoming a better writer is I want to write more blogs and I want to write a lot more of poems. I feel like I could write a whole book on my poems because my poems mean a lot to me and if anyone can relate to my poems out there in the world, then I am doing my job well. I would love to write my own book one day and my first book title would be called "My life struggles". I would write about my life struggles and what I went through such as bullying and trying to commit suicide. Me becoming a better writer and my writing getting better would be so significant to me because I love writing and writing is a part of who I am! The significance of me forgetting my past is I usually talk about my past a lot. I try not to talk about my past but it is so hard not to. The reason why it is so hard to talk about it is because it brings back memories such as getting into another relationship! Getting into another relationship is hard for me because I am afraid of getting my heart broken again and I don't want that to happen again! The significance of me loosing weight is very important! I had trouble loosing weight before and it was so hard but now, I try to eat healthier and I exercise as well! 

Why those goals so significant?

The reason why those goals are so significant is because these goals are important to me and they are real life goals that I would love to complete. I feel like me loosing weight is a big impact on my health because I never been into exercising before and now, I love to exercise and it can be fun at times! I think becoming a better writer it would be good for me as well because I love to write and I love to write poems. I love writing! It helps me get my feelings out and I don't have to keep everything inside! I want my happiness back and I would love to be happy again! Being unhappy is the worst feeling in the world! If I could change about me being unhappy, I will! From this point forward, I will try and be happy! I deserve happiness and if I can try and be happy, then I want my Shinning Star Butterflies to be happy as well! Learning to forget about past won't be an easy task but I know that I can do it and I believe that I can do it! I will never give up and I feel like my past is putting me down; so, I need to fix that and learn to forget about it and never talk about it!! 

In conclusion/ Tip of the day/ Question of the day?

In conclusion; I feel like with these goals, I feel like I can complete them! With the goals, I will never give up! I will continue to fight for my happiness! If I can continue to fight for my happiness, I can be happy! I know that I can do it! I will continue to make myself happy by doing the things that I love to do the most! I will continue to drink water everyday and exercise everyday! I am proud of myself for how far I have come with my weight loss journey so far! I will learn to forget my past and focus on the present!! If I continue to become a better writer, maybe one day I will have my own book! That would be awesome! I would love to write my own book! I would be proud of myself for writing that book and dedicate to the people who have been sticking by my side through my blogging journey so far!! Here is my tip and question of the day! My tip of the day is never give up on your dreams or goals! If you want to become an author, then you can do it! If you want to become an actor, then you can also do it as well! You can do it and I believe in everyone 300%. Never give up! My question of the day is what is y'all's goals for this year?? Why did y'all choose those as your goals?

"Start writing, no matter 
what. The water does not 
flow until the faucet is 
turned on." 
-Louis L' Amour. I love this quote because by writing, words and sentences are forming and they start pouring out! Just like a water faucet; once you turned on the water faucet, water starts to flow! 

"If you don't leave your 
past in the past,
it will destroy your future. 
Live for what today
has to offer, not what 
yesterday has taken away".
-Unknown. I love this quote because if you let your past destroy you, how are you going to focus on the future or the present? Move on from the past and forgive what hurt you!! 

"Weight loss is not impossible. 
Weight loss is hard, 
but hard is not 
the same as impossible."
-Unknown. I love this quote because weight loss is hard but it's not impossible because if you know that you can do it, don't doubt yourself. Believe in yourself!! 

"You glow 
differently when 
you're actually 
happy". 
-Unknown! I love this quote because when I am actually happy, I smile and I am laughing! I am actually in a good mood and I am happy! I would love to have that glow back!!
