Designer Life
We declared in agreement that this is the season indeed for realizing goals and manifesting dreams- having them come true in brilliant glory: Thereby transforming each and every facet of our lives.
Thus, all of these steps however wobbly, painful, and incomplete they appeared to be have been ingredients that blend harmoniously together in order to stylize our Designer Lives.
For a long time we are under the impression that we design it as we want.
However, God chooses the pattern, creates the color and paints as He wishes. In some of our canvases there is a beautiful palette of pastels, other canvases are murky and gray as swamps, yet others are brilliant as the sun and the stars themselves. I believe mine has been a cornucopia of mixture.
Just as I seek out a man who is blended- a near perfect and artistic combination of features of the faces of varying cultures; so is my life experience…
The glorious and the tragic, the brilliant, and the foolish, the elation and the devastation, the victories and the sorrows, but always- always more love than hate. More gentleness than meanness, and a willingness to let go- just uh, excuse me, but please show me how?
I sincerely want to do it, but I am not sure as to how to do it. Help, please- Thank you,
This is reminiscent of my former style. Now I am turning to the one who made everything I see and long for to tell me- show me how.
So, yes I embarked on a voyage, far from home to find my soul- the proverbial quest, is it finding myself or finding my soul? However, I only really find my soul when I look to the one who made my soul for the answers and consult the Lifestyle Manual to Live my Designer Life.
So live free, live apart from the memories that bind, the people who constrict our freedom, and the limitations we place on ourselves.
When you are focused on Living Your Designer Life, then you are on the path to achieving your goals (even the adopted ones), realizing your dreams, and self- actualizing. You delight in learning every detail about your self- your own specific unique Design- God’s Fingerprint on you.
You explore all facets so that you can develop and grow into a complete, giving person who embodies complete awareness in regards to her/his assets, abilities, strengths, talents, weaknesses, and shortcomings to start.
The one who Lives the Designer Life realizes that life is, brief, but a breath a fading vapor just like the dew on the grass at dawn. It disappears amidst the heat of the noonday sun. Thus, she has learned the importance of cherishing every moment and embracing all life has to offer and surprise her with resilience and non-resistance, just a spirit of acceptance. If the Design is gray and murky, well she then seeks to see what lesson can be learned via this experience, circumstance, and gathers the wisdom to be gained in bundles of love.
With arms outstretched…
We open ourselves to the endless possibilities. We also shed the dead clothing, the garments that are like a noose and choke the life, passion, and creative vitality out of us. Our awareness is heightened so we can rid ourselves of influences, toxic relationships that destroy our soul as well as bad habits just like the trendy clothes that simply just don’t flatter your figure and the colors that make you look green with envy.
There are seemingly attractive and harmless things in our lives, but they slowly day by day bit by bit affect us by depleting our storehouse of love, reserves of passion, drain our enthusiasm, and pollute our waters of purity.
To fully reach your potential and grow into the mighty, graceful, and majestic cedar you are meant to be (or your preferred plant/tree analogy) we must leave these things like dust in the wind.
“You shall know the Truth and the Truth shall set you free.” Therefore, I urge you to seek after truth; search for truth, wisdom, knowledge the way you would quest after true love like every beat of your heart was dependent on your success in your mission.

Moments of peace and the stillness within silence as Designed to collect light’s thoughts. Reassess
and practice enhanced awareness so that you can Live Your Designer Life: Because you can savor each
precious fleeting moment.
How dreadful to be the one to Design your own misery…But if we can make our own
version of unhappiness, then does not that imply that we can also create our brand of happiness?
Flashback- just like I keep looking back despite moving forward, I turn my head to look at the past
– my mistakes, sorrows, regret, and I become a pillar of salt. Salty tears pour forth. I pour salt into
my own wounds. How dreadful to be the one to Design your own misery…But if we can make our own
version of unhappiness, then does not that imply that we can also create our brand of happiness? This
is the way I prefer to look at it. But I am weakened when I am selfish and alone. These are the times
I am most likely to fall into temptation and get caught in the fox’s den, lair, snare…
It’s important to leave time for reflection while Living your Designer Life. It’s then, at this time, that you can change the Design, redesign the Pattern, and form new shapes.
Perhaps decide to create or cultivate a different composition altogether
if the former did not serve your best interests. The time is always ripe to incorporate new hues, shades
of being, and meaning. Or it may be a time to re- mold and develop new shapes.
Pray for blessings in their lives- pray specifically for joy, peace, and that they carve out a straight path for their feet to follow and learn how to Live their Designer Life by following the example of the Master Designer.

discovery in a special boutique in Miami… “Release the succulent tropical filling."
As you release YOUR HEART’S DESIRE and Live your Designer Life with fervent fire like a lioness wrapped in her
lion’s clutches (paws).
Accept what is and create beauty from it.
“The Designer Life has a general concept, but is unique to the individual. Hence
it should be lived in liberty and freedom and only with the guidance of Christ and
conscience.”- Daniel Ayeke
A screen play writer named Greg Auerbach offered this quote, “Anyone who lives within
their means suffers from a lack of imagination.” – Oscar Wilde
My wonderful sister in Christ, Sharon Tonge ( she is such a sweetie; she even Designed
the business cards to promote my love letter to you), She suggested that people meditate on
1 Samuel 16:7 which says, “But the Lord said to Samuel, don’t judge by his appearance
or height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them.
People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
I know I am guilty I fall in love with a man first based on his exterior. I do speak with
and befriend people who are not classified as the Beautiful People, but I often find myself
sadly a bit more upbeat when chilling with the beauties.
As I said God isn’t finished with me yet. He paints the image of Jesus on my heart and
soul daily. To fully Live your Designer life, you should be vested in growth, so that you
are a bit better each day in every way. As you feel led, maintaining balance, use your
desire, determination, and drive to manifest growth. All the while keeping your ultimate
destiny foremost in your mind…
Should you seek to learn how to love God and truly love Him then be prepared for, 1
Corinthians 2:9
“Lean not unto your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge God,
and He shall direct your paths.”
The scripture that can bring me ease and peace of mind and I hope it does for you as well is,
In summation: to Live your Ultimate Designer Life, each day- Read, Study, Pray, Love, Hug, Embrace
the moment, Venture out into an Adventure, be in your gift, develop all you have…
Push and endure. Fight for your dreams.
Suffering + Perseverance + Character = Hope = Heaven.
Do remember that to hide depression prevents you from Living your Designer Life because it consumes
too much energy, causes you to withdraw and miss the beauty of life, and you may walk away from
the arms that are extended towards you to embrace you and catch you before you fall.
Don’t break her heart that way, my love.
Every day walk about with arms raised towards heaven and expect your blessings and miracles.
Live a life of miracles! Prepare yourself to receive and to give… become a master at your work, at
everything you possibly can! Your gift will attract people to you.
My soul mate will fall in love with me and propose to me after he reads my book!
Remember the Law of Attraction: Thoughts become things…
In order to best Live Your Designer Life, you need to become an expert at Designing
your prayers and waiting for the prompting from the Master Designer as to when, how, and what…
“People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”
