I know, I know… I preach about mental health and maintaining peace. I must be the world’s most zen. Never stressing. Never annoyed. Always smiling and glowing. Please don’t think that way. I have down days and they tend to linger. I’m not always smiling and meditating. Honestly, I end up avoiding meditation when IContinue reading “Present in the Dark”

Respect
Women are mothers far before they bear a child. We see what lies in the future. We manipulate energy Seeing the positive and the negative entities latched onto people. Observing the true colors of your peers. With constant concern for your well-being. We are natural nurturers. Listen to her. Respect her concern. Value herContinue reading “Respect”
The Power of “No”
Do you know what feels like you’re frolicking in field of tall grass on a beautiful day? Do you know what feels like ice cold water on a sweltering hot day? Do you know what feels like (ladies) whipping that bra off after a long ass day? Saying “no” feels like all of these things…liberating!Continue reading “The Power of “No””
B Well: Healing
So here I was, a month after breaking a toxic cycle in my life and choosing to start over. I knew that I was angry…hurt…hell, I was bitter. Pissed at myself for getting into absolute nonsense once again. I felt ashamed but that was quickly over powered by optimism for what was to come. EvenContinue reading “B Well: Healing”

It’s unrealistic. If you are having issues facingContinue reading “Control”
Entitlement & Self Awareness
Shout out to the people that understand that no one owes them anything. Somewhere down the line we took on this ugly mind set in which we feel entitled. And not even the dope entitlement that Nas taught us about with the world being ours. It’s the spoiled brat But-I-Want-It kind of entitlement. The I-Didn’t-Want-It-Until-I-Saw-YoursContinue reading “Entitlement & Self Awareness”
Unapologetic
We must stop giving in to the pressure of society. This includes media, friends, family, coworkers, etc. What YOU decide to do with YOUR life is only YOUR business. Make YOUR own rules. Make YOUR own traditions. Form YOUR own opinions and theories. YOU don’t want to wake up one day in realization that YOUContinue reading “Unapologetic”
Soundtrack
Boys in books are always better. We were delusional since toddlerhood, watching movies and hearing stories of guys like Prince Charming- rescuing us, sweeping us off our feet, kissing us while fireworks blazed in the backdrop. Utter foolishness. This fluffery had me believing that there would forever be background music throughout my life. They createdContinue reading “Soundtrack”

You choose to stop, Drop all of the negativity, And roll out the red carpet that you deserve to walk on Flying high like the falcon You areContinue reading
