I have noticed that there are a lot of things going on in the world today. Not to mention, many people are trying hard to make people feel insignificant in what they support and don’t support. If you support one thing, you are no longer supporting something else and if you are standing for one…

My Upcoming Leap
So, this may not be a big deal for some, but I will be performing at an open mic night this month…. *pause for reaction* I’ve never been so nervous in all my days, but I need to take a leap of faith sometime. I’m working on some new poems, and so far I haen’t…
I Bought Clothes. Lol
So, I sort of went against my challenge to myself yesterday, but I am glad I did. I originally told myself that I would not buy myself a stitch of clothing until I lost a substantial amount of weight. I was all for this, until I realized I have no winter clothes, and a pair…
Why Don’t Superwomen get an Off Day?
As we go through life and its many stages (adulthood, dating, marriage, children) it’s so easy to wish that we were back to the “good old days” when we are hit with rough times or life just becomes too “adult” for us to handle. I know I have experienced this several times (I mean, who…
Positive thoughts
Everyday you wake up with an opportunity to make the day the best day you can. You are the only person who can control the outcome of your day. Wake up, pray, stretch, open the window and look out at God’s creations. Tell yourself that today will be a good day. Claim your positivity into…

I read an article recently, like many others I have read that highlight all the negative reasons why people shouldn’t watch reality TV and things like Scandal, Being Mary Jane, Empire, How to Get Away with Murder, etc. On one end, it highlights that people of color are making waves in television, starring in major…
Will I do NaNoWriMo this year?
I am contemplating on NaNo this year. I think I would like to do it, but I am not sure if I will keep up on the website like last year. I can easily keep track of how many words I put in everyday, so not being on the website won’t be detrimental to me….
Home: an ode to my sanctuary
After a long day, I like to run away, To a place I like to call home, Where I can be all alone. My bed, My kitchen, My bathroom, My living room. All of these places, Are my getaway spaces. A no judgement zone Where I can be all alone. Day 5 🙂
Know your Lane
A lot of people tend to speak on subjects in which they know nothing about. We want to peg ourselves as experts, yet haven’t done the edtensive research behind those aspects; or better yet, they just have not lived in them. I like to believe that there is always a life twin; a person who…
