Journey of Jess

I do not like it so do not put me in it

Sometimes I get sad and I remember that music helps me so take a listen to my love songs.

I travel back to the past and it was not a fun trip. Listen to my story and tell me if you relate.

I went on a great reality trip for my birthday and it left me wanting to do better with me and not worry about others. So back to happiness

I been running around working and planning for my birthday. I have been learning more about the people I surround myself with. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The birth is like a celebration and it is suppose to be a great excitement. As the child grows older, expectations are spoken and set out. What if those expectations change can you accept that?  Would you be able to accept you if you do not reach your full potential or will you fall apart? It is okay and normal to fall apart/ Just remember pick yourself back up!!! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Have you ever been got caught up in words? Like Someone was talking and you decided to zone in and focus on how they made you feel. Was is Good or Bad? Might have been awkward? Well Sometimes I have conversations with men and females about the understanding of the physical touch. Like how other people do not want to be touched the same or do you like to be touched at all. I happen to love physical touch to the point, I can imagine being touched if a person is describing it to me which introduced me to Mind Trips! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Happy New Year! Here is a poem that might make you think about some previous conversations. Several people have approached me with their personal issues asking me for my opinion and would get upset if I disagree with them.

Sometimes what is understood does not always have to become an understanding. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

It does not cost to be able to think. I notice that everything has a price including to save a life. I went on a search to find out what is free and I found thinking. Thinking is the only free thing you can do. It cost for people to change their thoughts and yours. But remember your thinking is free and a person can change your thoughts for free (you can't buy new thoughts, i have tried). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/journeyofjess/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/journeyofjess/support
