Life is Great Right...?

So life is great.... good job, great apartment, good car, all my family, able to travel leisurely, not broke, finding myself...... but something is missing.


Transparency:
 I am sitting in my living room- not wanting to my watch my usual on either Netflix or Hulu. Not quite depressed but teetering this fine line of questioning all that I am. Why can I not have everything I want...why must I wait for Mr. Right? So I sound like a spoiled 3 year old... oh well, that is just where I am in life right now. Maybe it hormones or maybe its the process.

 I have a bestfriend who had a baby and then got married... she seems happy... The other bestfriend has her kids to go home to and what do I have? My great job, quiet apartment and wine......but positive breeds positive right? So I shop.... I shop to fill the missing pieces of my life... clothing and shoes never worn to make me feel better. Catch me at my shoe store tomorrow off Preston... Just FYI

Cannot smoke weed... yeah promised Jesus back in 2009 I would not go back down that road, I think about it A LOT but no... so no green for me and I am ok with that.

Cannot go be promiscuous and transfer spirits and bodily fluids with a total stranger or an ex.... yeah I am scared for one, two- told Jesus I would wait upon him and if he got me to January I could then pray to make it to July... waiting and working remember....not 100% ok with that.. but waiting.

Cannot keep shopping- 90.00 at Ross, 60.00 at Forever21, 30 more at Ross, 50.00 at Ulta, 20.00 at half price, 100.00 out to eat, 100.00 on wine, and even bought a new tire and sensor 180.00 (I needed it right or nah) and going shoe shopping tomorrow- just wanted to emphasize that.. the first step to recovery is acknowledgement- yes I have a problem and yes I will be catering to that problem tomorrow... need some new boots it got cold over the weekend!! (justification, satisfaction)

Read... yeah not focused. TV.... yeah not focused  Workout... did it felt good for like a hour and back down.... Eat... no that will really be a bad decision lol

I feel stuck.. no decision can be made and no where to turn and then he says "Be still and know that I am God." Yeah but I cant see you and that is hard for my little human mind to comprehend you are here and I believe you are here but where?

Why do I feel less than when you promised me more? Why do I feel like a fish out of water? Where is my place in this life? I feel like I am going in circles but life is great, right? Why did I choose books over boys, passion over comfort, peace over drama- where did it get me? Oh yeah my great apartment, with my great job and great life right?

Sips Wine.

Feeling a little better at least I am not crying anymore... (I am a crybaby, ask about me)

Stay safe this NYE... remember buzzed driving is drunk driving.

About Time! Queening Exponentially

I know that I am about 2 weeks late... but I am working full time and pursuing a Master's so be patient! Miss USA 2016  is exponentially several degrees above awesome. Let us take a moment to discuss what makes her awesome. 1. She is Black- unapologetic. Most definitely oozing #BlackGirlMagic the definition of #BlackExcellence and that melanin is definitely popping. I wonder what color she wears> definitely not any shade that Neutorgena offers (No Shade) but not everyone has cool, orange or yellow undertones.... some of US have prominent red undertones!!! I digress.... Handclap to the makeup artist and creators out there that cater to ALL SHADES of BLACK. 2. Member of the US Army- Patriot and passionate about it. Some of my people are not the most supportive of African Americans fighting for a country that chose to enslave and continues to mentally enslave us as a people. My goodness! Cut the girl some slack- she has chosen to sacrifice her life for others- which is t...

When.....

When Someone Shows You Who They Are.. Believe Them The First Time- Maya Angelou I took this to heart today when reflecting over my life choices and why things turned out the way they did. It was brought to my attention by my younger, middle brother that I am all too quick to cut off people. WHEN they do one thing I am like NOPE, DONE. This is a trait that I know I have and I have always viewed it as both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because I cut the bull at the beginning. A curse because some people deserve another chance. It is one of those gray areas in my life that I try so hard to color in or make clear. But the real reason why that quote resonated with me is becuase there was a time in my life, these past 4 years, that I tried to not be the person who cuts others off. I tried it and it failed. This quote is true and will forever be true especially when it comes to humans. Rarely do people change to suit others. Self is always more important than others. When others tr...
