Dear You…

Dear you, Life is all about seasons. And really… the only thing you can do is ‘embrace the weather’ and make the best of it; whether good or bad. That’s it. Because eventually… No matter what… The season will change. Love, Yourself

Dear You…

Dear you, Toddler tantrums are really one of the worst parts of these early years. If I’m honest, most times they’re going on, in the back of my mind I wonder what would happen if I tried to counter it with a tantrum too!?! Would the kid be so shocked and awed that they just…

37 for 37

I don’t know what it is, but for some reason I always find myself getting a bit more introspective than usual when my birthday comes around. Maybe it’s the idea of getting a year older; looking at all the things you’ve done (or not done 🤷🏾‍♀️) while thinking of where it is that you want…

Dear you…

Dear you, Sometimes relationships feel like they’re failing. But wait. God is the giver of life to all things. And in your weakness you can rely on his strength. Sit tight and know that all things are still working together for your good. Love, Yourself.

Dear You…

Dear you, It’s a new day. Embrace it and all it brings with positivity, gratitude and love. Remember that the way you view things will determine how you see it; so find all the silver linings that you can… and then some more. Love, Yourself

Dear You…

Dear you, It’s ok to feel blah some days. It happens to the best of us. Sometimes we like to think that we’re so super that we don’t need to feel. But the reality is that we’re all human and you’re entitled to have down moments… Moments’s where you feel like the ground is sucking…

Dear You…

Dear you, Life can be crazy busy and hectic. But today, take a moment. Enjoy the sunrise; the warm spring air; the blossoming flowers; the melody of the singing birds. Even the giggles and laughter of the happy go lucky toddlers. Become one with nature’s beauty and splendor and allow every fiber of your being…

Your Mind Really Does Matter

So naturally there’s a stigma associated with seeking therapy for mental health issues no matter how significant they can be. But the reality is we only have one mind and doesn’t it deserve to operate from a place of peak efficiency, even if it means that we have to get a little help with staying…

Dear You…

Dear you, Sometimes the things that you are looking for from others has to first come from yourself. You have to see yourself for what you’re really worth and know that you deserve everything that you desire. Only after you realize your worth and begin to treat yourself like the amazing being that you are…

Dear you…

Dear you, There’s a saying that goes, ‘the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.’ So that’s it. That’s the trick. That’s the key. That’s the plug. Just take the first step. Then repeat it every day. Eventually you’ll realize each one contributed to the sum total of getting you to your…

I took my Toddler to the dentist…

So can I just say how shocked I was when I took my toddler to the dentist today. Honestly, I was surprised by her behavior. I was taken aback. It caught me off guard to say the least. Of all the things that she could be… she was actually cooperative with the dentist!! I expected…

Dear You…

Dear you, I lay down in bed thinking about how as kids, most, if not all of us have an innate nature to be competitive in most aspects of life. To the point that we live our lives based on comparison and the opinions of others. While there’s nothing wrong with being competitive, I wonder…

Dear You…

Dear you, You’re tired so take a rest. Rest and relaxation are necessary in regular intervals so don’t be afraid to take one. Besides, what better way to wind down than with a good book and a glass of wine. It’s like a pocketful of self care. Love, Yourself.

Dear You…

Dear you, Time can fly by. It never stops. Never sleeps. So rather than focusing on this, place your emphasis on the moment you are in and embrace it wholeheartedly. In the end, if you do that it’ll make the process of moving forward that much easier! And, you’ll probably have the most amazing memories…

Dear You…

Dear you, Sometimes you have to encourage yourself. The vision you see belongs to you so it’s your obligation to take it and run. Run. Irregardless of your insecurities and fears. Run. Even when the days seem difficult and you are tired. Run. Even when you fail and nothing seems to be working. Just run.…

Dear You…

Dear you, I know you have a tinge or resentment, but that’s ok because you’re acknowledging it. The emotions are ok as long as you don’t let them overpower you. You control them, don’t let them control you. Eventually this feeling will go away, as does everything in life and you’ll be experiencing something else.…

There’s A Word for That!

Ever since I was a child I loved reading!! I was the kind of kid who would spend hours and hours reading until I finished a book in one sitting. My eyes would be burning with sleep but I would not put the book done until I was done!! All those years of reading gave…

Things Have to Change

So I’ve been doing some reflecting over the course of the last few days and I’ve realized that there are some things that I need to leave behind in 2020. At the approach of 2020, I remember all the chatter about how it’s going to be the year of clarity; clear vision and all those…

Dear You…

Dear you, Life will try to make you conform but you don’t have to. Just be true to you. The you that you feel deep down in your soul. The you that you know you can become, do, and can achieve anything you set your mind to. At first it may seem difficult, but eventually…

Dear You…

Dear you, There are two common sayings that come to mind today: 1. Rome wasn’t built in a day. 2. Great things take time. In this season, it seems like everyday you have to apply patience with pretty much everything. And it’s because you probably do. Nothing in life is instant, even if it seems…

Dear You…

Dear you, Embrace the now. You don’t know what the future holds. Embrace the now so you can fully feel the emotions of the moment. Embrace the now so the moment doesn’t get lost or taken away from you. Embrace the now to find the lessons and growth. Embrace the now to find the triumphs…

Dear You…

Dear you, Today is difficult and that’s ok to admit. Just take a moment to breathe. Gather yourself and think through your thoughts without judgement. Allow yourself to feel and if necessary dwell in the moment… if only just for a few moments. Your feelings are completely valid. They’re relevant even though it may not…

Dear You…

Dear you, Some days you will feel like all you’re doing is giving. Nonstop. Without anything in return. And it’s because you probably are but that’s ok. Eventually the time will come where you reap the rewards of your giving and ok that day you’ll look back and smile. Smiling because you’ll realize that although…

Dear You…

Dear you, Sometimes we make things a lot more difficult than they really are. We blow them out of proportion. We over analyze. We overassess. We overestimate. All of it and then some more… Until we get to the point where we’re in a hole so deep we can barely see the light to get…
