Although Slavery was abolished in all Non-Union States (meaning Confederate States) on September 22, 1862, it wasn’t until Union General Gordon Granger arrived on the shores of Galveston, Texas on June 19th, 1865 to announce and force the emancipation of slaves that slaves were “Finally FREE”.
The Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1862 and was really put in effect in 1863. Slaves lived for 2 years being slaves not really knowing they were free.
Using creativity and determination, Lincoln was able to use The Proclamation legally to only free slaves in the areas of the South that were not in control by the Union (states in rebellion)
The Emancipation Proclamation allowed for the enrollment of freed slaves into the United States military.
Almost 200,000 blacks joined, in which most of them were ex-slaves. This gave the North the additional manpower they needed to win the Civil War.
And as the As Union Armies advanced into the Confederacy more slaves became free as they slipped behind Union lines.
So, Juneteenth or June 19th is the celebration and in many states a recognized state holiday or state holiday observance of the day that slaves came to know that they were “Finally FREE”.
It’s the goal almost everyone in this world, this life, shares…To have the ability to never work again, work at will, or get caught up doing something that you love so much you don’t even realize that you are…
My wife, Kimberly, sent me this quote through Stumble Upon that she found. She said that “it’s sooo me”.
It is…
“Choose a job that you like and you will never have to work a day in your life”
-Confucius
Hope you stamp this in your mind.
There are 3 major choices in life.
The God you serve,
The person you marry,
The business, work, or job you choose.
Living by these words will change your life.
Living by these words will bring to you daily happiness.
Living by these words will allow you find and fulfill your purpose in life.
Live Life Abundantly To The Full And Running Over,
When you need help getting through the night…
When you need a word from God to pick you up…
When you need something to comfort you and let you know that everything is going to be ok…
Listen to this first a time or two or 10 : )
(and then be STILL and know that He is GOD…ALL by Himself)
Here’s Guy Sebastian Singing All To Jesus I Surrender
Here’s another version with words:
Sung by Brian Littrell
When I’m with you, I hear a sound
That makes me laugh and smile and sing to you
When I’m with you, I feel so free
I love that love is going to take control of me
When I’m with you
It’s for real (It’s for real)
What I feel (What I feel)
When I’m with you (You), uh-huh
When I’m with you, I wonder why
People do stop and stare and smile at us
When I’m with you, the sun shines my way
Baby, our love reflects its rays of light on everyone in the world
When I’m with you
It’s for real (It’s for real)
What I feel (What I feel)
When I’m with you (You), Hey, hey, hey
Uh-huh (Special touch, a warm embrace)
A sweet and tender, your smile, whoa
Body warm my heart, so pure
Chills when I look, look in your eyes
I wonder why
People (Do stop) and stare (And stare and smile at us) and smile at us
When I’m with you, the sun shines my way
Baby, our love reflects its rays of light on everyone in the world
When I’m with you
It’s for real (It’s for real)
What I feel (What I feel)
When I’m with you (You), you, hey, hey, hey

When I’m with you (You), nobody but you

So, like many other people in this world I really want to get back into shape. Great shape.
Tip top shape.
Everyones goals are different and are starting at different points. But nonetheless, there are challenges that we face in order to get where we want to go, especially finding consistent time for exercise.
Which really comes down to a matter of priorities. You have to find a reason for getting into shape that is far greater than the other activities that you use that time for now. (like wanting your wife to think you’re super hot - j/k. IT really should be a reason more for yourself. Because then your success is based off someone else’s opinion.)
I was an athlete for most of my life so my starting point is pretty good, but it’s frustrating to not be able to do exactly what I’ve been used to doing on the track, weight room, or any other activity I choose to do.
But it will come. Just need to stay consistent with good solid workouts and with my diet.
An Evil Word
Diet!
“Oh, don’t say that.
I know, I know. But here’s a different way to look at the bad word…diet.”
I eat when I am hungry.
I eat smaller meals (which means I am hungry more often)
I eat veggies, fruits, and fish, dairy, & chicken.
I eat desserts too. Just in moderation or not as much.
The key to eating desserts is not to confuse being hungry and needing food, with wanting to snack and having desserts.
I also don’t focus eating the same meals over and over. I mix it up. What ever I have a taste for, but within reason. If your diet is the same old boring foods, then you won’t stick to it.
Anyway, I’ll keep you posted with pics and post about how “the road to getting back into shape” is going for me. Along with some tips to help you, if you’re looking to do the same.
Most Important
Getting started.
It’s taking the first step to get started and stop making excuses or procrastinating. At first it might seem like a challenge to get started everyday. But once you’re there you’ll be ok.
Just do it.
Make some small reachable goals. Then as you accomplish them today, or this week, make some new ones. As you accomplish more goals increase the challenge.
Keep In Mind
That it’s about your overall trend.
If you have a bad day or week, don’t give up and throw in the towel. Look at how good you’ve been doing and use that to keep you motivated to keep it up.
You’re gonna’ have some bad days and some bad weeks, but the overall trend of you getting back into shape will be good.
Have a blast. Do something today. Go for a walk. Eat a few smaller meals. Drink 8 glassed of water. Stretch. Only have 4 cookies instead of eating the whole row. lol
Sometimes in life you run into things that just tickle you elmo.
This is one of those times.
I recently saw a Social Networking profile that read:
interested in: Women
relationship status: in a relation with…(lady’s name)
Really?
Now this may not tickle you at first, but as it settles in it will.
They’re saying:
So, I am in a relationship, but I am still interested in women. Yes! I am a ladies man! lol
…uuummmmm. yeah!
Ladies and Gents, this is a Red Flag.
Dater beware, especially if they’re good with words.
Smart Dating,
Kenney
P.S. But they seem like “sugar”. Well, if you just can’t resist, go slow, and try to find out who they really are, the foundation of this person. Chances are you’ll find out that if you are really interested in a serious relationship, you’ve found the wrong person.
