“I ACCEPT THE FACT THAT NOT EVERYONE CAN HANDLE THE NICKSTER…

… that’s why I cherish the ones who do!” That was me to my brother, Kevin. I’m still thanking him for keeping my head together last year, but I wasn’t expecting this response in one of his morning voice Whatsapp notes:

“And you do it for me every day, so don’t worry about it, Nikki. It’s a trade-off. It’s call family. You know. That’s what it’s about. Trust me, you don’t owe me anything, and I don’t owe you anything. Whatever I did for you last year, that’s why I’m your older brother. That’s why you’re my baby sister. Please don’t get me in the talking mood yet. Let me wake up, I tell you. Listen, I’m gonna block you, you know! (HUGE SMILE).”

It’s another testimony to the greatness of God! I needed help last year, and he sent me Kevin. Even coaches need coaches. I would call him in my worst moments, and he was always there to give me solid and wise advice. Like telling me, I would have to be patient right now. To not try to be God, but to be God’s angel. Not to be in front of God, but to be behind God, letting God lead me. That I’m not to worry about the future; God will level everything out.

And having people like Kevin in life is what makes life sweeter. I’m not talking about superficial, fake relationships. I’m talking people who are really for you and your success. They’re loving and loyal, and I’m blessed to have such. Hubs and I are celebrating this entire year because this will make 20 years since we met for the first time. 20 years putting up with me! That’s cause for celebrating!

The values such as patience, going overboard in love and forgiveness, seeing the best in others and not their faults (anyone can find dirt in others, be the one that finds the gold), integrity, loyalty, kindness and just always reminded that nobody’s perfect (including myself), have led my life on a beautiful path with some pretty awesome people who love and support me. I won’t start listing them, but they know who they are!

The most loyal award goes to God, though. No matter who leaves us, He stays:

“The Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; Do not be discouraged.”

Let’s stay loyal to Him by making Him our PRIORITY, going to Him in every decision seeking to make Him happy. I promise you, God doesn’t disappoint! He gives us more than we can ever imagine, like the most extraordinary relationships!!! Have your appointments with Him reading or listening to anything spiritual.
