My Child Amazes Me!

Sometimes, I can’t help but be in complete awe of my child.  She truly is an amazing little toddler!

A Bad Day at Work…

I usually gripe about bad days at work, but truthfully, they are nothing more than days where I actually WORK all day long, and don’t really have a moment to breathe.  Those days truly aren’t that bad, because I’m usually creating solutions to problems that arise, and in the end, although it takes a lot…

Nighttime Conversations…

Bright stars dancing in the darkness of the morning. Before the kiss of dawn radiates our corner of the world, I watched you. As your chest rose and fell in the rhythm of my heartbeats I knew, That to lose you, would be the most slow and agonizing pain I’ve ever experienced. I wanted our rhythm…

#BADUmixtape

So, I had the pleasure of experiencing musical goodness when I got Erykah Badu’s mixtape, But You Caint Use my Phone, on 11/27 (actually due to the pandemonium on Apple, I didn’t get it until 11/28).  It officially dropped on Apple Music on midnight of Black Friday.  I had to join Apple Music first, since…

My Open Mic Experience

On 11/21, I went to the second open mic night held in my hometown.  I posted this post describing my newest quest on the bucket list of life, which was actually performing at an open mic night.  Well, with the support and encouragement from friends and family, I didn’t chicken out, lol! I performed one of…

The Value in Self-Care

Lately I have been really trying to keep up with my level of self-care.   I was having a conversation with a friend, who told me that I really need to try to do more of it (or do it at all because I don’t).  I thought about it and she is right, I don’t…

#Year28

Tuesday marked the 28th year the Lord has blessed me with life.  I didn’t do much, aside from the adult obligations (license renewal and registration lol), but I enjoyed the day doing some things that I wanted to do. I took a lot of time to reflect on the things I want to accomplish in…

Pray for this World

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…

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…
