Hi friends and readers!!! It’s the last week of June and boy is it hot here in Texas! I don’t really like to complain about the heat since I know there are troops overseas wearing mounts of gear in the blistering heat so think about that next time you are hot! Haha.  I hope everyone had a great weekend and is having a good start to the week. Today I am taking a big plunge and writing about marriage. I hold marriage very sacred, and never really speak about mine publicly so I’m writing about my views on it. See today it seems like we live in a world where the love word and divorce word are being thrown around in the same sentence! Cheating has become the norm to some people and abuse seems more common now than ever. See statistics show that one tends to follow the steps or love patterns they grew up in. But I am a believer that we can rise above and break the chains! It’s in your hands to experience and find real love. Ladies and gents don’t settle for less, because you deserv...

Hi friends and readers! Omg I feel like I haven’t written in forever! My sincere apologies to everyone, but this month has been so busy! I promise not to let this happen again. Lol. For those who care yes I deleted my facebook, maybe just temporary not sure yet. Want to focus more on blogging, and you can always follow me on twitter @jessrange or add me on instagram “raungee” I still try to inspire through these two social networks.  I hope everyone has been doing well and staying positive and happy overall! So believe it or not I don’t always wake up in a chirpy good mood, and there are days when I just want to crawl back into bed and sleep away the day. I think we all have days like these, but I refuse to ever waste a day of life on being sad or depressed. On days when I just can’t seem to get it together I pull out my “happy resources” My first step is to take a moment of silence with God and pray. I then seek help; I immediately ask my two soul mates for prayer. These two peop...

Hi readers and friends! Sorry for the delayed blog post. Life got a little busy, but I’m back with a lot to share. I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend. Overall I hope everyone took a moment of silence for our fallen troops who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Love. A four letter word that holds so much meaning behind it. I felt inspired to write about love today, because I feel it deep in my soul today. I had such a blessed weekend with family and friends I was over taken by love. Love can be beautiful, but it can also be confusing for some. But Love is simple. Love is happy, love is laughter, love is fulfillment, love is energetic, love is positive. Love can fill a whole heart with all of these emotions plus more! But like many I have shared my moments of confusion and despair. I have been in a place I thought was “love,” but later came to find out it was anything but love. You see love is not, tears, pain, loneliness, confusion, sadness, hurt, and negativit...

Hello Friends and readers! For those of you who are done with school congrats! Hope everyone enjoys their summer. I’m ready for some pool time and sun bathing! Bring on the sun J Yesterday I finally did something I had been talking about doing and wanting to do. For the past four or so months I have been saying that I want to start running. I can’t seem to lose these last 10lbs of baby weight, and I know running is the only way I’ll lose them, I stay active and walk daily but I want more I guess.   But why is it that getting started on something is always the hardest part!   For those of you who don’t know my husband is a United States Marine , and right now his job is a recruiter. Well he had mentioned to me a few weeks ago if I wanted to join him and a few other girls who enlisted in the marines to jog with them.   Yesterday I finally went. The whole way to the park I prayed for strength and endurance. I haven’t jogged since I was like 5 months pregnant. So I w...

Hi friends and readers! It’s Tuesday! Hope everyone had a great weekend full of love joy and peace, and a good start to the work week. If you aren’t on the happy boat just yet then I hope this can help lift your spirits, and put a smile on that face :D The past four days I have been battling some inner demons that maybe some of you can relate too. Before I moved to North Carolina you could say I was somewhat of a “partier.”   I lived a pretty wild life, and now being back I guess sometimes I still think that I enjoy doing those things. I think it’s because it was what I did when I lived here before. I make myself think I want to go out, and even go as far as making plans with friends! (that I later cancel on) Point is I don’t fit into that lifestyle anymore, and that’s not judging on people who go out, because I have been there done that! Had some great times! Hehe. But right now at this stage in my life my idea of a good time is being home with my family watching movies sn...

Hi friends and readers. I hope everyone had an amazing blessed weekend. We are in the last week of April! Summer is right around the corner and I am super excited.  This morning I got pulled over for speeding…Good morning to me! Haha! I got off with a warning thank God, and I was determined not to let that set a tone for what the rest of the day was going to be like. I quickly made amends with God and myself that I needed to be more careful and left it at that.  As my day went on I decided to tweet something about “Barbara Walters.” Nothing incredibly mean, but I guess mean enough to piss off another tweeter! Anyway this person went on to call me a bunch of names and what not so I just deleted the tweet and blocked the person. Right after tweeting that I saw this quote on something I was reading “ Bob Marley Judge not before you judge yourself. Judge not if you’re not ready for judgment.” This instantly made me feel really guilty about posting that tweet and I immed...

Hello friends and fellow readers. Today is Sunday Earth day! I am sitting outside enjoying this beautiful Texas weather. I decided to write a special blog today. I have been very in touch with life and God today, and would like to share some of my thoughts and emotions with you today. As a little girl I always knew I was somewhat different than a lot of my peers. A Dreamer is what people would define me as once they got to know me. I’ve always had big hopes for life and knew I was meant to help people out, not sure how but I felt compassion in my heart for everyone good or bad. As years went on I guess I just got comfortable with the life I had and figured all those high hopes were really just dreams. It wasn’t until maybe a year ago that I realized I was given a gift from God. It wasn’t until I gave myself completely to him that I started believing in myself. Two amazing people kept encouraging me to start a blog and use my words for others who might need some lifting and ...

Hello friends and readers! We are into Mid April I can’t believe how quick this month is flying by. I hope everyone is starting of the work week on a good note. If not I hope my words will help lift up any down spirits. Today I want to talk to you guys about patience, positivity and how to practice these things even in the midst of a storm. My inspiration comes from a personal experience I recently had. I won’t go into much detail, but I had a little spat with a friend and instead of keeping calm I yelled and said things I shouldn’t have said. But I’m only human and not perfect so I fell into the trap of NEGATIVITY and felt very ashamed after. You know it takes more work being angry and finding reasons to be angry, and staying angry. Why would anyone want to purposely be upset and angry? No one is ever at fault when you have a fight or argument with a loved one.    They are just emotions that surface during the “midst of the storm”.    But if we can learn to approach...

Hi readers!! I hope everyone had a blessed Easter weekend. I like writing on Mondays, because I unlike many enjoy Mondays. I always think of it as a fresh new start of the week. If last week was crappy try to make this one happy. So today’s inspiration comes from my weekend. I spent this weekend with great friends and family, and I just kept thinking how fulfilled my heart felt to have these amazing people be part of my journey in life. It also makes me miss my friends that aren’t here, but that’s a whole different blog post. Anyway I think I’m finally starting to realize why God brought me back home. When we first found out that we would be back in Houston I was excited to be close to my family and friends. But I also had this mentality of “cool I don’t have to worry about making new friends, and getting used to a new state.” Pretty closed minded you could say. See here’s the problem about coming from a small town where everyone knows everyone. You tend to form these “cliq...

Hello Readers! Well after a fun weekend we are back to the daily grind. Today I would like to talk about “getting your sexy back.” At first I had just planned on gearing this post towards women, but I think men deal with these type of insecurities as well but aren’t as open about them as us women are. So my inspiration comes from a recent dilemma I was struggling with. After weeks of coming to grips with a lot of insecurities I was dealing with, and some “best friend intervention.” I am finally ready to talk about. So not too long ago I had noticed that my significant other was being a little distant. I know this man more than he knows himself so I finally asked what was up. Long story short he told me via text that “ I never dress up anymore and I was looking raggedy!” I know I know! Your reaction was probably like mine…no mine was worse! Haha! I wanted to punch him in the face! Anyway so after I got passed the anger and sadness eventually I sat and talked to my go to “int...
