From Glory to Glory

Seasons come and seasons go... I sometimes pine a loss of a friendship and or loved one....the loss is not because of death but because the relationship ended. I find myself going through emotions after closing doors to relationships that went sour or south. I love that we as humans can create friendships and bonds with one another. I absolutely   love meeting people and making new  friends. I am the consummate friend. I am most likely  that  one  you can rely on and can depend on for whatever reason with no strings attached. My view about friendships is that one should be in it for the long haul. However, all friendships do not last in fact, most friendships expire after it has run its course. If I am honest, I  hate  the fact that  I have to deal with a break up or ending a relationship. . I never intend to go into something blindly and willy  nilly  to just have it just end. But you are never aware of someone's true intention  in the beginning and we often ignore

"Self Care is an act of Love," read this somewhere and it resonated with me deeply. Today, everyone is talking about "self love" and "self care"it has become almost a fad nowadays and some thing that most new age social mavens would call currently "trending." It is a popular term that has the world focusing and concentrating on self. However, it should only be considered a must if you are one who have been neglecting "self" for most of your life. I am talking about those selfless, giving, and larger than life personalities, who are the ones most people expect to receive help from. They are those the world calls "The Givers" and the Givers have been pilfered, plundered, pissed on by so many takers or toxic personalities. I am writing because I am one of those who have been mishandled, misused, taken advantage of over time....I am a Giver. In an effort to be transparent, many people consider the fact that because I am a c

The vicissitudes of life may sometimes come with challenges or insurmountable tasks that we have to  face and endure from time to time. Everyone of us has had to deal with some major struggle in our lives, whether personal, family, or workplace. The struggles in life are real and it is part of our journey into our becoming who and what we need to be. I often quote, "don't watch nuttin" in my Bahamian vernacular. Why? I realize everything is not what it seem in my or many other person's lives. I am  currently single and I  often look at someone who is married and I think to myself, I want this for me. I want what they have because it looks picture perfect. However, in reality you may have a marriage that is being held on by a thread. You may have two individuals who are like two ships passing through the night and what they give to the world is only an illusion.Yet, I look into their world and I want what they have...I desire their struggle.....Considering, that

HARD RESET-RESET YOUR LIFE It has been awhile since I have written a blog entry. Why now? Well, for me, I had to go through processing my feelings and attitudes which helps me to discover what direction I should take. Writing this blog has always helped  me unpack my thoughts and sift through the meaningful and the meaningless of my life. It is my therapy in short...as I need to release an unleash my present issues. In about two weeks, I will be celebrating another birthday and as usual, I always spend time doing a little heart searching and in deep introspection. This birthday is no different from any other. I am intentional on unpacking and uncovering the issues that I am currently facing. One of my major issues is how do I see myself and what do others see in me. Recently, I have been garnering feedback wanted and unwanted by those around me, close family,  friends and random strangers,  in which I have had meaningful encounters and dialogue with at opportune times.
