Breathe Again

Was not sure what to title this particular post. So many new things and blessings happening in my life right now.

For starters let me say God has really been pouring into my life these past 2 months alone and I can truly say that I tried him. Now-- he is trying me lol. I made 1 year on my trek to celibacy Aug 3, 2016!! It was a struggle, I cried a lot and I had to dig deep in order to get to the root of why I even started having sex before marriage. Past the surface self esteem stuff and actually come to grips with the fact that I was lost. I knew so much and so little at the same time. Wanting to be loved, not knowing what it truly was or how to properly give it. So year 1- done! The level of growth and being able to see these guys for what they are right then and there has truly saved me some time and energy.

A (BOY) and I emphasize boy because of his mindset tried for several months to invite himself to my place of residence after I clearly stated my stance on celibacy and even just what dating me meant and once I truly told him look " I'm dating someone so you missed your opportunity" it became a game in his mind of whose line is it anyway because his ego was hurt. He then said " I was not looking to be serious like that anyway" My response was "EXACTLY so why did you try so long and now you are free to call the next chick in your contacts and try her- cuz I am not the one!" several you good, I'm good text later I just deleted the conversation- good luck in life homie.  I swerved on that headache, non committal and everything else that could have come along with him. #ThankUGod

I also started a new job and I now realize why I am in recruitment and what God has been preparing me for. Evangelism- my need to travel and love for helping others become the best version of themselves professionally and finding their niche. That is basically what evangelism is... and he is making me ready to do it for him. He takes your natural God given earthly talents and expects you to use those talents for his kingdom. I see it now.

But I love my new company and my team I feel included and like they are really investing in me as a whole person not just the professional.

First mission trip to Haiti- July 2017- First installment paid today!!! I am excited and beginning to study so that I can receive what it is he has for me. I am ready to go to the next level in my relationship with God.

There are also some new people coming into my life that are challenging me in ways that I usually shy away from. Being able to talk with someone who is just as intelligent and goofy as I am is refreshing. I do not have to be on guard all the time, he is, I guess what I need in my life. Thankful for the transition and everything that has happened over the past year to get me ready to even see it. The breakup, cutting people off, moving, new jobs, walking away from other projects and finding the real me. It was not easy but I am grateful to all the situations that created the makings of me. Lessons learned, tears shed- the good and the bad.

 More to come on that....at a later date



I am actually learning to sew... can you believe it!! Got my sewing machine (investing in self) I am back learning French and of course still reading for leisure.

Finally finished "The Wait" By Devon Franklin and Meagan Good- I am glad I waited until now to read the book- it helped me finish this first year celibacy  journey out strong!! I have faith and it may already be happening- who knows. Waiting and Working..... Breathing- 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 ...

Sucking at life but #Queening

Unfortunately I am the person who can never make a decision right off. I have so many ideas and thoughts running through my head and there is never just one option. Why are there always so many options? There are options for everything and it kind of freaks me out. I am that person standing at the crossroad with basically 3 other directions to go besides the one you came from. Yeah that is where I am in life right now. I want to go everywhere and do everything besides what I have already done. At least going back is not an option and neither is staying where I am... I have to decide on something at sometime. Even the greatest of leaders suffer from indecision. I am afraid that my indecisiveness might lead into inaction which is unacceptable on any front. That is why I impulse decide usually- due to indecisiveness... just make a decision already! Done. So what is it that I cannot make a decision on? Well right now... this living situation of mine. It's time to move from my apa...
