Guess what today is? My Birthday! Yep. I am officially the big 32. I am so blessed to live another year. Thank you God. Lately I have been doing a lot of thinking about people in my live. This blog, blogger behaviors, and expectations. I was speaking to one of my favorite bloggers on my lunch the other day, and she pointed out that I have expectations. I am one that usually has expectations of people, and end up with my feelings hurt. I have learned to realize that some people really don't give a shit about me, what I think, or my feelings. Which is fine, but I need to not expect that people don't have those feelings. So this new year of age brings about a new way of thinking. When relating to this blog, my thought process is WHAT EXPECTATION TAMARA? And, it is what it is. Relating to my personal life. I have told those that need to know that I have dropped expecting things of them, and I feel a burden has been lifted from me. The funny thing is, no one has ever communicated expectations to me, and how it hinders your feelings about people properly until this conversation. I am thankful for the new journey, my friend, and to see what I learn along the way in this 32 year of life made specifically just for me.
So instead of me getting something for my birthday. A reader will win this beautiful necklace valued at $44.00-
This lovely beauty is sponsored by Tracy Bennett of Stella and Dot.
I choose this item as I thought it was a very versatile piece that could be worn with jeans, on a date with your guy, or to the office. The emerald colored eyes, crystal “brows”, and beautiful pinkish coral colored body make for wearable art in my opinion.
OWL CHARM PENDANT NECKLACE: $44:: Wise, wonderful, whimsical. Our vintage owl pendant on gold plated link chain is for the woman with a playful style. Approximately 18” length with 1” extender. Lobster clasp closure.
