Have you ever manifested anything? Last week I shared that I wasn’t setting any true “new year resolutions” this year. This year I am striving to do everything in my life in EXCELLENCE. To take my current obligations seriously. And I mean that. One way for me to do that is to manifest certain things in my life — envision […]
“2022, We Welcome You!”
What’s holding you back? Around this time last year, I wrote a blog post: “Jump the Hurdle! It’s Okay If You Fall.” That post was all about setting goals and resolutions for the upcoming year. It was written with a sense of joy and encouragement. “What do you want to achieve this year? What did you learn about yourself (or […]
“Which Is Better, 1 or 2? — Crushing Fitness Part 4!”
What do you like better, preferences or requirements? If you’re a social media user, you might have seen some pages post various polls on their stories on Thursdays and call them “This or That Thursdays.” I like it. I think it’s cute and fun! Sometimes their topics can be “which dessert do you prefer?” Or “which [insert random item] is […]
“A Friendly Reminder”
What’s your favorite day of the week? I like to think that one of my contributions to the community is my Monday Motivational Messages that I share on my YouTube channel every week. They’re not pretty. They’re not super long. And they’re sometimes recorded at the last minute on a Sunday evening. I also don’t know how many people in […]
“F-R-I-E-N-D-S-GIVING”
What quality do you need to have in a friend? Ahhh, it’s that time of year again. Where the newer generations have created yet another reason to eat, drink, and be jolly with the people they love. Thanksgiving may occur every November, but in many houses and apartments everywhere, so does Friendsgiving. What is Friendsgiving you may ask? Friendsgiving is a […]
“Keep It Up!”
How are those fitness journeys going? Wow! It’s November already! I know half of us skipped Halloween and started thinking about Christmas and probably already have our Christmas tree up lol. The holidays seem to bring a sense of togetherness, joy, and REST. That’s what they do for me. It gets colder outside, I want to do nothing but curl […]
“Hey, Ma!”
Do you enjoy it when your parents/family visit you?! I am blessed to have a mother who wants to travel to see me, visit with me, and just be around me. I have a mother who engages in activities and conversations with me (and my brothers) that maintain and strengthen our relationship. Not everyone can say that, and I am […]
“A Haunted Clubhouse”
Do you enjoy writing stories? If I didn’t know it existed, I wouldn’t care what happened to it. But now I know. And you will too! Please enjoy my high school Honors English “Writing Prompt #2” written in December 2006. Don’t ask me what the question or assignment was. Fitting for Halloween I reckon! Mystery? Horror? Thought-provoking? Relevant? Trash? You […]
“Black Love, Simply.”
How do you define love? Black love makes me happy. I would say I can’t tell you why seeing Black people express their love brings a huge smile to my face. But that wouldn’t be completely true. After further thought, I realized I feel that way because they are experiencing what I want for my life. I want to meet […]
“If It’s Meant To Be”
“What’s a trait that you are most well-known for?” What God has for you is meant for you. Don’t believe in God? Y’all know I do. So let me say it a different way — what the universe has for you is for you. What’s meant for you will find you. This weekend I watched for like the hundredth time, […]
