More in 2024

Happy New Year!

Life is moving so fast.I can think back to when I thought that by 2024 we would live like the Jetsons (LOL). That was my favorite show, I thought George was living the dream. In the utopian world where housing was in the sky, entrees were out of vending machines cars were like flying saucers, and a three-day work week. Surely they had it made, but the only thing that carried over from that sitcom…

You Are Because You thought It First

You Are Because You thought It First

I have been listening to Joe Dispenza for the last few months. This man is a genius. He breaks down the level of control that we must have. Have you ever wondered why your energy seems drained and you cannot shake that feeling? Daily we are creators of habit and some of our practices are not good. Yet, we repeat the same cycles over and over. Learn how to block the thought process that places…

Lest We Forget

Thank you for being here. Like and share.

It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words, and I’d like to take less than a thousand words to describe the image. The image inset to this page shows where we are as a nation. It is the picture of life. The experience of the society that we live in. Everyone wants to feel safe and secure, but how can you feel safe and secure given all of the violence, senseless killings, and unjust…

The Year of RE-

I hope this entry inspires you to keep pushing towards your dreams.

This is the time of the year when everyone decides to take charge again. To take time to get another opportunity to correct the areas of our lives where we previously missed our goals (RE-). I’d like to think that, as we move forward since it is the start of 2022 that we want to embrace the newness of the New Year, which aligns itself paradoxically with wanting to do something different. Hence…

This Moment

The day starts with an opportunity for you to move past yesterday. It gives you an opportunity to set the intention of what you want. In this Moment, right now, that intention can focused on a future plan (self-development, increase). Life has a way of reflecting-you of your past, the hurts, the trauma, the experiences, the encounters, the joys as well as the disappointments. But it also can…

Money Matters

You know there’s a lot of talk these days about money matters, finances, how to build your legacy. People showcase what they did at twenty-five, they speak to how they retire and set sail around the world.  They entice you with intriguing words that usually sound like “RICH” and boom, you are hooked. I mean come on, who doesn’t need a little extra green face value in their pockets. Who doesn’t…

Venting ( From Inside My Head)

Venting ( From Inside My Head)

The days are filled with questions, way too many to find the answers often times. What is it that we seek to define this life? Every day it is a new awareness to what you did not know, something else to add to the many thoughts that cover the day. Something else to fill the mind of how short this time is on earth. Something else that can make you feel that you are the best (or maybe not so…

Life’s Curve Ball

Simply put, life can throw you a curve ball and you are not sure how to catch it. Moreover, where did it come from? What does your curve ball look like, what did you do when it came out of the field and caught you by surprise? Well, let’s talk about where the origin of curve balls come. I believe that curve balls come from disappointments, from expecting one thing and getting another. They…

The Value of the Moment

The Value of the Moment

Well, this would be the first blog entry that I’ve written from a place where I am transitioning to a higher plane of accepting that I control nothing.  We are in the life, sent for a purpose and no matter how much we think we are orchestrating our daily lives we really are not. Oh yes, we must make choices, but what happens when life just does what it does? No matter how well defined we are…

Silent Yet Strong

Do you hear it? is it loud or is it silently taking you to a place remembrance? what is it that you feel? What is it that you sense? Why is it that it moves you to a different place unspoken? Or even makes you stop in your tracks? Silent, but yet controlling every step of your life. And when left uncontrolled can become very explosive? I creep up on you and you wonder where I came from I…

Seasons

You know, here in Michigan, we have four seasons, and while the spring, summer and fall are welcomed with open arms, the winter months can be quite the challenge. But it is the picture we create as we remember what is to come, not where we are. Remembering the walks on the lakes, the time at the park, the walks at dark. Even we are now awakened to roads covered in snow it is just a season and…

Is it Just Me?

Is it Just Me?

If you are reading this blog today can we just have a little mental conversation? Some blog time, with your mind. There are some things that I think about, unspoken. What about you? And of course, we all wonder if these thoughts are just our own (where did that come from?). Do you ever wonder if you have what it takes? Wonder if you will complete your goals before the end date? Or even if…

Caught Up

Have you even been in a state of surrender? Between the questions and the unknown? Torn between the words you hear and the words you fear? You know the times where self talk makes you account for all your thoughts. The times where your mind tries to define a deeper meaning to that which is unspoken? Caught Up in the life that runs away while you chase the wind you cannot see. Caught up in…

A Moment in Time

A Moment in Time

Wait a minute am I in it. why does everything seem so diminished. diminished by time that we cannot unwind. a moment we shall never define. it has passed. who thought that it would last? a moment in time that was what so divine. a moment we celebrated, and we were so elated. then came the moment of truth as I stood upon the roof. the highest point of my desire now burns with fire. I had…

What’s Your Name?

When you were born your parents give you a name sometimes that name is based upon a favorite person a relative or even a name within their name. Then we are given names in school but are assigned to us by our teachers our classmates are peers. We are given names as high schoolers or teenagers that change the frame of our image that we have of ourselves. But then there’s the name we take on…

The Stare

Today, as I started my day, my mind went astray, neither here nor there, but everywhere. You may wonder why people stare (afar off) and wonder if they even care. But I want to believe that in those times their mind is somewhere, everywhere. We are people prone to think, but within that hour only can we meet. Truthfully and honestly Everywhere becomes an anomalous word when you integrated…
