I Ain't Sorry

Your Crown Is Slipping

I Ain't Sorry

Being a princess isn't all it's cracked up to be. -Princess of Wales Diana

There comes a time when majority of the things you go through make no sense. Or when someone crosses you at the wrong time on the wrong day and you almost have to remind yourself that you are held to a higher standard.

Now we of course know that we are not "royalty" in the sense that we sit in a castle, on a throne giving orders; however, we are in the sense that we are the children of God and since He is the King of Kings that deems us royalty. So because of that we should carry ourselves as royalty.

Some days are harder than others and when things do not really go as planned we find every reason to find fault in ourselves.

1. Well Maybe I Wasn't Qualified. Or maybe there was someone out there that needed that thing you were in line for a bit more than you did.

We often find ourselves downing ourselves because we did not get what we wanted or someone may have looked over you once again. But I believe when we have faith that one day someone will see how much value we have they will dust you off and make sure you are where you should be.

2. I Guess I Am Not Pretty/Handsome Enough. Or maybe I should just make you stand in front of a mirror until you see otherwise.

If (s)he didn't want you then oh well, their loss, they're lost, and they lose. Let's be honest for a second, you are being looked over because they're not looking for you. God only made one special person for you and yes people may have come into your life but they're also the same ones who picked up their mess and walked right on out. So again I say: their loss, they're lost, they lose!

3. I Fail At Everything. Or maybe you should just write out how much you have actually accomplished this far in life.

Please listen -- well read closely because I am only going to say this once. If You Fail Once Get Back Up And Try Again. I have heard so many stories of individuals who had dreams to be writers, singers, doctors, professional athletes, etc. and they decided that just because one or two people had doubts or that someone said "NO" that they should quit and find something else to do. But I just say pick yourself up, dust yourself off and find another method to achieve your dreams.


Find a reason to smile, find a reason to love yourself. Especially in the face of others, just keep your smile and remember that everything works according to His plan. Never let them see you sweat. Remind yourself everyday of the love that surrounds you, and of the love you have for yourself. Oh, and pick your head up baby, your crown is slipping!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
