It's Christmas Time Again...

The season is upon us...
Yes, that season where everything is so festive and cheery...
I absolutely love this season!

Christmas time always makes me smile and I anticipate the joys that come along with it.  I enjoy spending time with family and friends, eating sumptuous meals, caroling and of course Junkanoo...it's not the Christmas season if you don't add the culture.

Recently, I was just thinking about a time during the pandemic when I joined a songwriting group  on Facebook and they challenged the group to write a Christmas song. There were people from all over the world...at least 6 of the 7 continents were represented. I guess we were a group of people who needed to make a connection while being locked down and prohibited from movement.

Well the challenge was given and of course, I was up for it.  I gave it my best shot.
 I wrote what I called my Island version of a Christmas song with some help from this rocker dude from the UK. He and I "collabed" and put something together.

Can I say, even though we did it in a short time it was fun to do something that pushed me beyond my comfort zone.  It was also a pleasure to work with someone of a different culture and race  who did not mind staying up to help bring my vision and sound forth.

So the challenge was accepted and I released a raw uncut version of my first ever Christmas song with the help of my Big Bro who helped me to record it and he added what he could.

I think one day I am hoping to create a studio version and release it for real...but until then...the raw sound is what I have...and I am super proud.

This Christmas I am spreading Christmas joy by sharing my Pandemic Christmas song with you titled Oh! It's Christmas! Go ahead and listen...and I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Phenomenal, Super Amazing New Year!

With Love

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 materialistic or influential

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

Live Free: Getting Rid of Toxic Connections

I hate to admit the obvious, but I am still learning how life, love and all things in between work. I must confess that I will forever be a life-long learner until the day I die. One thing I've recently discovered for certain is that we are responsible for what we bring into our lives. We are responsible for the types of relationships we have and the people we are associated with. I am aware of how toxic people can be and how we must truly guard our peace at all costs. The older you get, the more baggage you carry. Unfortunately, if the weight is not offloaded, it becomes heavier and heavier. You can then unload on an unwitting victim. On this blog, I've often mentioned introspection and doing the work on yourself before you can help anyone else. However, for clarity and emphasis, you must prioritize your personal development and healing. This comes with the understanding and knowledge that some people are not your assignment and you are not required to help them improve. Geesh
