"Melanin Queen Living Her Dreams"
What can I say about 2017? Honestly, I don’t even know where to start… 2017 was a really rough year for me. It was filled with difficulty, trying times, and pain. It was really a year of sacrifice. Putting off my own goals, dreams, and ambitions, to care for other people. A task, I will […]
The Holiday Season is upon us, and Christmas is literally only days away. And while this is a fun, happy, spirited time of year for many, for some it can be very depressing, sad, and painful in dealing with death and the loss of loved ones. Some deaths may have occurred during the holiday season […]
Don’t get me wrong, there are some people, friendships, relationships, ties, & connections that need to be SEVERED and BROKEN!!!! You’ll be a better person for it! 🤷🏾♀️ But then there are those once in a lifetime bonds that no matter how far you drift away from each other, how strained it gets, how much […]
I know some of you are confused and are wondering, “didn’t Kobe retire already?” … and the answer to that is, Yes! Lol. Kobe’s final game was played on April 13, 2016, also known as “Mamba Day”. It was a home game played at the Staple Center, in which he scored 60 points! Yes 60!!!! […]
“It the most wonderful time of the year” right?! Lol. This is the season where we expect to have work luncheons, Christmas parties, and family dinners. Tons of food, fellowship, and fun! So why is it, every year we often find ourselves, trying to find outfits to wear?! We spend so much energy stressing over […]
In just a month I’ve encountered one of the biggest losses of my life! I cannot put into words how I will never be the same after this. Not to be dramatic, but I will forever feel the effects of this loss for the rest of my life. You would definitely have had to know […]
No matter how grown we get, how educated we become, or how accomplished we are, EVERY woman needs her mother. Simple. Point Blank. Period. A mother just means so much to the progress and development of a woman throughout her entire life time. Even as she passes through different phases of her life and her […]
With any kind of loss there is going to be a rollercoaster of emotions, reactions, and feelings. However when it comes to “PK’s” (Preacher’s Kids) it’s 10xs worse. I say this because when a PK loses a parent, at one time they’ve lossed a parent, pastor, and spiritual leader, all at once. Their life will […]
Although I’m not a crier or the emotional type, doesn’t mean that I don’t feel pain. I’m hurting in ways that I can’t even explain. I don’t necessarily have to “show” you, in order to prove that. Everyone grieves differently, and just because I don’t put on a display like others, doesn’t mean I love […]
Leaving MaMa’s house this evening, and daddy was talking about MaMa and reminiscing on good times; and as he’s reflecting he says so calmly, matter of fact, and sincerely, “You are A LOT like her”… Mommy wholeheartedly agreed. And they said she often told them that I reminded her so much of herself. What […]
