Caffeinate your spirit.

I've learned vulnerability is a good thing. I'm about to be exceptionally vulnerable in this post that is long over-due. 

As of late, it takes a simple read of a text message to trigger the release of tears from my lacrimal apparatus

These times are hard and trying for a lot of us. 
All around the world. 

Life sucks.

Let me rephrase that, the living conditions people are experiencing suck. 

I'm saddened to admit this post was not a direct result of the evil and inhumanity, illustrated in the media taken place around this country.

This post alone was all fueled by heartbreak, disappointment and pain that a handful of my loved ones are dealing with. Both privately and openly. 

Setbacks that are caused by:

Health. Money. Stress. Shortcomings. 

Struggles of all kinds: Lack of love, understanding, acceptance and support. 
And the ongoing battle of developing, attaining and creating our own perception of happiness. 

I know that with age life becomes more challenging because the rewards grow more grander, but I feel as if I'm running out of time to be rewarded. I feel like my loved ones are as well. I feel like we all are.

I know patience is a virtue and I know through storm and sun life has endless blessings to offer up but I think because of life's indifference, we are being robbed of our right to do way more with our lives than just survive. 

It's like we are disconnected from our energy source because all we hear is the voice of fear, bill collectors, horrible bosses, and other energy draining sources of negativity offering us cheap validation for why our living conditions suck.

I trust in the Universes timing, but not the timing of man.

So I want to channel the source energy that helps me create a beautifully designed life for myself, my loved ones and my community. 

I have been undervaluing the love of Family, friends, GOD and self because I've been too busy trying to survive. 

Forced happiness is very real. I think I've felt less than full for a while now. The highs come and go, but the lows are more natural and appealing to my living conditions.

I'm not trying to live like this anymore, and I'm damn sure not trying to allow my family and friends to either. 

FUCK THIS SHIT. 

We have to set the tone of our lives and look to our higher selves because life's fuck-boy tendencies will only continue to leave us feeling emotionally drained and powerless. 

Invisible humans in our heads, news coverage, greedy corporations and just plain sucky people have too much control over our self-fulfilling prophecy.  

We are capable of so much. We have to focus our attention on creating compassion out of anger, hope out of fear and and love out of hate. 

The key to getting this thing called life right, is looking for GOD in every situation and experience, while STILL steering the wheel to our lives in a positive direction. 

everyone's going through it. but we don't have to, and if your circumstances are more strain than others, you damn sure don't have to go through it alone.

until the next time.

PEACE. LOVE, and so much JOY.

Long Bus Ride Home

The world is controlled by two forces. The highest of the two being a positive energy of GOD, Compassion, and LOVE. The other being the complete opposite; utterly evil, destructive and hateful, better known as The Devil. I grew up being extremely familiar with the opposing side due to my elementary school fame... I can remember countless times where I was the cause of someone crying at recess because I excluded them from whatever girl group, club or gang my friends and I had formed at lunch earlier that day. The Spice Girls were usually who we strolled around Recess pretending to be. But looking back I realize we were more like Destiny's Child due to the fact the revolving door was always open. I was Beyonce though, so I did the kicking out and the replacing. Always. I was one of three black girls in my entire school so I was different and people admired that. Innocent souls admire the significant things in life. Unfortunately back then I let the hype go to my head and an EGO ...

BALANCE: an even distribution of energy enabling someone or something to remain upright and steady.

It's been exactly 3 months since I've publicly written . In the missed time I've been doing some soul searching, soul recovering and soul spoiling. When I say soul [searching], I'm referring to searching for more wisdom and truth from what I've already been so enriched with within this short but precious lifetime of mines. The soul recovering I speak of is in reference to the refocus, and revamping of my purpose I've been diligently working on since-- what felt like the Coldest Winter Ever ended. Saving the best for last, the soul spoiling I mentioned was said modestly yet wholeheartedly in regards to the decisions, power moves, and progress I've made with awareness, peace and love; which has entirely been a motivating factor in bringing me closer to GOD, UNIVERSE, SPIRIT, HEAVEN, PEACE, LOVE, etc. than I've ever been before. I'll keep it real because we all deserve REAL: This past winter after returning from Africa, I never really readjusted to...

27

Today is my 27th birthday and I feel like I have nothing to show for the 27 years I've been on this earth. But at the same time I have a good amount of reasons to be thankful for every year spent on this beautiful colorful earth. 10 years ago today, I turned 17 years old and a totally different woman sits here today typing this. I always wish I could afford the luxury of time traveling since the present isn't always as jubilant as my teenager years were but GOD knows my days now have more meaning than my 17 year old self could have ever imagined. Through triumph and terror one thing has always remained over the years... that tomorrow presents a new opportunity, new chances, and alternatives. These are 27 lifestyle choices that I want to master: 27 1) Stop feeding dead relationships or friendships. A lot of characters get written off or die. It's ok if the people that started out don't fit in your story anymore. 2) Stop being indecisive when it comes to what you...
