Girl Meets Self

Finding yourself is a wonderful experience. Realizing who you are- it feels  like a great awakening! It  is freeing and challenging at the same time. Breaking chains or habits that have become second nature to you is not an easy feat. We all have things that we wish we could change about ourselves at some point and time. My question now is why not. Why not chase your dreams? Why not move? Why not fall in love? Why not be who you were purposed to be?

In life- things get in the way- it is called life. How you deal with those distractions will determine how far along you get on this journey. It really hurt me to find out that Kehlani (one of my fav artist right now) attempted suicide. I pondered thinking WOW- what was so bad that she wanted to end it all. Here she is this gorgeous, talented, free spirit- Grammy nominated artist- girlfriend to a man worth 90mil- who is tall enough and cute enough- who displays his love for her. Why? your life seems to be what any 20 year old would DREAM of. But just like any 20 year old- there are distractions in life and somehow she was not ready to deal with those distractions mentally. I do not know her life story or her childhood or what makes her tick- who am I to judge? All I know is that life will happen whether you are Kehlani or Chantel and what may seem small to me can be ginormous to her and vice versa. So send or be an encouragement to someone today- you never know what others are battling.

I said that to say that once you become in tune with your star player (you) all the other people and things just become white noise and you become this unstoppable force of positive vibes and potential.

When I met myself finally- I began to see myself through my eyes only. Anyone else's opinion of you- is just that their opinion.. and they are entitled to that- but that does not mean you have to be bound to that opinion.

Life is all about choices. To go or not to go, to be or not to be, all that jazz. The choice is yours.

Update: Investing in self

So I finally purchased the software to learn French- enjoying it so far- hopefully I can really become bilingual- just because and plus that can be beneficial when I leave the U.S.

Also made a wonderful contact in regards to learning to sew- she is willing to teach me and so finally I can begin to make the clothes I spend so much money to find! Having long legs, big legs and long arms does not make it easy having a shopping addiction.... NO MORE!!! lol

Also.... I have my logo for my online business created- ordering business cards soon- and will begin the grassroots stages of my online domain...I will keep you posted.
I am not sure what direction I want to take it- Just Fashion or incorporate my love for hair as well- do I market for some of my favorite entrepreneurs as well? Found a wonderful soap maker in Vancouver- should I sell that too? Lots of ideas- but I know the fashion piece is my primary focus for right now.

But that is it for now go and affirm self!!

Say this 10 times to yourself in the mirror TODAY
I approve of myself and love myself deeply and completely

YOU CAN DO IT, LIFE IS WORTH LIVING!

In search of magic

She told me something was missing. Not a spark or a twinkle Not a light or a star Not a fire or an ember My magic was missing. The very thing that allowed me to create the me I wanted to be, had long gone missing He took it, I said, and I want it back! I want it all back. Slowly she felt it returning- but she had to figure how to use it again. Never again would she let someone steal her magic. Never again would she freely give of her magic. Never again would she take for granted the magic that was given to her as her prized possession. And when she said it- she felt it- the magic she once knew had returned and oh how it had grew. It was undeniable, unimaginable- she realized that the magic was her, she had never left- she had only forgotten due to his curse. She realized what she had forgotten; she had placed her magic safely on a shelf far, far away from what she called her heart. Hidden from all others, even herself- because she was too weak to control it ...

Where has time gone....

It is almost 2018 already and I have yet to post my last few trips but tonight I didn't want to talk about my trips, my goals, or any of that. I just want to share my candid thoughts. As I reflect on the last year, I am saying to myself- I never imagined I could be this happy in a relationship, this satisfied in life, this comfortable with my own thoughts. I am thankful for my family and the new friends he has placed in my life. I was challenged with change this year and now it's about to be 2018.... I guess what I want to say is accept the changes that life has for you. Enjoy moments, laugh, cry, be comfortable in your in skin and if your not be confident in your decision to change it. There is so much you all don't know that I don't have time to share tonight but given my new take on life blogging is back, books are back, wine never left and bae is good. I'm just really happy to be happy right now.

Falling in LOVE

In life, you have to take the pace that love goes. You don't force it. You just don't force love, you don't force falling in love, you don't force being in love - you just become. I don't know how to say that in English, but you just feel it. Juan Pablo Galavis Life is never what you expect it to be. I caught myself this week being the girl I always have been, the hopeless romantic..... Just how hopeless am I? A Walk to Remember, I cry the entire movie- not because she dies- beacause he loves her UNCONDITIONALLY. I cry so hard I get a headache. I digress.  What happened? I had a bad day and I needed a drink, an outlet of some kind. Of course on these type of days none of my friends are ever available. Usually, I just curl up, cry it out, drink wine and eat pizza.  Not this day, I went to Marianos and had a drink by myself and cried a bit lol. Drinks were good and should have been for 11buck a pop! But then, he, my prince charming came to my aid.  He had so man...
