Say Yes! (For Women Only)

To my sisters...
JUST SAY YES!
You are Worthy! You are Beautiful Enough, Smart Enough and Are Enough!
Stand facing yourself in the mirror and tell yourself that you are worthy to be loved, respected and appreciated. Sometimes you have to remind yourself how truly wonderful and special you are, so that every negative voice or opinion of others would be drowned out with the sound of your own voice speaking loudly words of life, words that excite you and ignite you to become better

I know many women that sell themselves short, in fact I was one of them. I suffered from rejection, dejection, constantly looking for approval from colleagues, professional  and personal counterparts in my life and I fought to be noticed by so many people that really did not like me, appreciated me or celebrated my gifts. I learned  the hard lessons, some of them more than once, repeating the same mistakes...looking for love in all the wrong places from all those people that did not how to love me or choose to want to love me. I'm not talking about romantic love but more about how relationships have shaped and impacted me for the worst and the better.

I used to allow everyone to speak into my life who was not qualified to do so.  I allowed their opinions to shape my very thoughts. I allowed their opinions to break me, so much so it pushed me into solitude and ultimate depression. Truth is, their words and opinions controlled me. I hurt when someone disapproved of me, or who  never really got to know me and subsequently form their own assertions concerning me. I felt often times misunderstood and wondered why, people would not take the chance to delve deeper to discover my own uniqueness and the REAL person that I am. I was set up and betrayed by many human relationships, used for what it is that I can do and or what it was that I had at the time and when I was depleted, they left me, limping and wounded...they were not true members.

Learning the lessons above were extremely hard; I am certain every one at some point must take an introspective look at their lives and ask themselves, is this good for me? Is this what I want for my life and in my life? Is this person that I need to be around? Hence, after your consultation,  make a decision to let them or those things Go and Say Yes to You!  In a world where we focus on everything and everybody and lose contact with ourselves, it is time to Say Yes to the best thing that has ever happened to you...YOU!

Yes, I know it seems a little bit selfish but in a world filled with users, abusers, manipulators and those who are only in it for the ride. It is time to take the secret pill and decide, I want Me. I Say Yes, to loving me better, appreciating who I am, my strengths, my weakness, my good qualities and my bad. Tell yourself, I'll Say Yes to walking away from someone or anything that does not serve me well.

Sisters, there are lot of women who choose to say No, and stay where they are only tolerated and not appreciated. They choose to not follow their dreams,  nor choose the right way of escape from perhaps a bad relationship, they choose not to discover the women that they are, because they are caught up with other people's opinions and make it a point to please everyone else but themselves. I know that it may seem like that is normal because you have been living this way for so long. But sister girl, it's time to Rise Up and find the strength to Say Yes to living a better life, for you, for your future.

Go ahead, chase your dreams, love yourself and be Better...
You deserve the Best Things in Life...agree with me and SAY YES!

Mean It!

  Hello, is this thing on?🎤 Well, it has been a while since I have released a blog post. The reason is that I have not been inspired to write much of anything lately. When I tell you the season I was in, from a personal perspective was a dry season. it was a period of being off the grid and staying in the shadows. It was the season of my detox. It required me to be poured into rather than pouring out myself.  Lately, I found myself searching and in desperate need of something different. I needed more!   Now, I want to qualify my statement, by simply stating that I needed more than the norm. More for my life! My professional life, my spiritual life, and my personal life required me to seek beyond my normal. I was... no I am intentional about my next season being way different than before. I cannot get away with a mediocre outlook on life because I want more of what life has to offer.  I want to be more. I want to experience more. I am not speaking from the mater...

Unspoken Words...I Broke Down Today!!!

So how's this for a reel...real talk, real truth and real emotions... I Broke Down Today!!! Some would say, I had a meltdown while others would say I lost total control of my emotions. I would have been deemed emotional and yet I was unashamed... I baled, I balled, I cried out in desperation because of hurt, pain, mishandling and misinformation. You see days before I was walking tall, proud that I was keeping it all together. For what though, for a world that is growing colder and callous every day. Now has me wondering, do people truly care about people. The world today is not the world that I dreamt about...a world of peace, love, unity, equality, equity and family togetherness...just the sound of it seems farfetched now. But yet I still have a dream... that one day tings gonna get better...like the good Bishop says. I broke down today because family is not the same anymore, so much  division, so much strife, no unity and I am asking where is the love that once was had. I broke d...

Taking Flight

Latest Release Broken Wings: From Hurt to Hope It' s already December 2016 and I made it to the last month of the year and it feels darn good!  Upon being grateful that I made it to this point in the year, I also have some wonderful news to share with you. I recently published my first book which so happens to be connected to my blog. You see, I started writing during a period of my life, where I was overcome with darkness, as I was going through a period of heartbreak and depression. This blog was therapeutic for me, it helped me write through my pain and thus one day, I sat still long enough to pen words that eventually became my first book, "Broken Wings: From Hurt to Hope.  My book chronicles my experience where I battled depression and tells my very own personal story of how I navigated through one of the most painful times in my life. It is as about as real as you can get. I hope that my book, just as I hope my blog is an encouragement to someone that needs to ...
