A letter to 2019.

I went through some very interesting circumstances this year; some that I’ve never been through before, some even that I have barely been ok enough to talk about. I wasn’t always being 100% for the important people in my life. I wasn’t present for a lot of people I love this year. I wasn’t present…

Big Girl Moves!

When you have children, you never know what to cherish; what moments to etch into your memory, what silly things to photograph or put on video, or what things you should never take for granted. As parents, we try to make everything a lasting moment, but sometimes that’s not possible. Today, I had a brief…

Warning: Take Advantage of Your Opportunities before They Run Out

Public Service Announcement: A closed mouth doesn’t get fed. A plain, simple, yet powerful statement that we all use so frequently and loosely; however, never really take heed to it. How many of us go through life and not really express the things we want out of life? We wake up each morning, wishing things…

A Rant; To the Working Millenial That is Fed Up

It’s difficult to wake up every morning, and prepare to report to a job that is not satisfying in the least.  I’m sure we have all been in a position where the stress and constant disappointment continues to mount on you, until eventually, you snap.  You have towed the company line for a long time,…

Self-Discipline. Self-Love.

Lately I’ve been channeling more ways to love myself, before I put myself in the position to find the passion and love for other things. I feel like in every aspect of life, you need to love yourself in order to have the positive energy to be the best you can for your life (we…

Things I Now Have Come to Learn about Life

There’s no age requirement on having purpose in life. Some people go their whole lives and not know their purpose. But find one, and hold on to it, no matter when you do. You’re not always going to like the hand your dealt, the goal is to play that hand to the best of your…

Once I’m Gone

Just a little something I wrote, but never let the world see… I tried so hard to be perfect for you, Changed my ways, changed my look, even sacrificed for you, I thought changing me would make you see that this was all real to me, But in time, I found that nothing I would…

How to Forgive Myself

A few days ago, I listened to a guided meditation that provided a lot of perspective on what I have been going through these past couple of weeks. It was in reference to forgiving yourself, and how often we forget that the most important person that needs forgiveness, is you. How many of us on…

Parenting Moment: The Kid Takes on Pre-K!

On 8/6/18 , I woke up, got Kynnedy ready, and dropped her off at her first day of Pre-K. She was full of life and confidence; I, internally, was a mess. I couldn’t help but stay in constant prayer all the way to the school that morning.  I had to make sure that if God…

Being Available for You

How many times do we clear our calendars, shuffle and scramble to make room for others, but when it comes to our own personal availability, we do not show the same effort? With jobs, children, significant others/spouses, family, etc., it is very hard to say that you want to carve out time for yourself, when…
