Life at Random

No matter what life hands you... No matter how deep the blow... No matter how depressed you become from that blow... You must remember this. If it didn't kill you You will become stronger If you've had pain in the past and you're fine now... You will get over this And even if it will take awhile to get over this... Fine. Just pray for strength ... Prepare yourself for what is to come... Whether it will work out... Or you must go another way... Be prepared to move on ... You can't hold on to what isn't holding you back You can't keep what doesn't want to be kept You must... "LET GO and LET GOD" And in some cases you have to just... "LET GO" ... It all depends! And I'll end with the ever so clever and most beautiful words of T. I., *Life can chang e ya direction Even if you ain't plan it All you can do is handle it The worst thing you could do is panic Use it to your advantage Avoid sanity, manage to conquer Ev...

Anyone who knows me, conversed with me or hung out with me, pretty much knows that when it comes to talking out an issue, discussing one's wants and/or needs, communicating on a serious problem that desperately and immediately needs to be fixed; knows that I like honest, direct, graceful, diplomatic and most of all, sincere conversation. I have never been one for hinting, beat around the bush talk, unclear or vague discussion or that sneaky, unexpected, hit below the belt 'cause I'm not woman enough or man enough to say what I want and need to say, indirect comment speak. The only way you can ever get me to hash out anything, is if you come with the REAL. And when I say " REAL ", I don't mean, LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS ATTITUDE, FINGER POPPIN', BULLY TONED, I BETTER DO WHAT YOU SAY TYPE OF TALK . I mean REAL , like you have some since. REAL . Meaning, I've come to speak to you candidly about my thoughts and feelings but I'm also open and willing to hear...

I have to say for me, I've always believed it, in a fairy tale kind of way. You know, like the way you believe in Santa Claus or the story of Cinderella, etc..., and I have to admit that though I've become older, I gotta' tell you that I, in a small way still believe in those dreamy fairy tales , call me crazy, but I do! I mean even though I learned that my family was the actual (Santa Claus) I still believe, in that story. But with that being said, I always believed that love at first sight indeed happens. I just never believed it could or actually would happen to me, in my life. I encountered this years ago, it was one of the most amazing things that has ever happened to me. I mean, I really felt like I was shot by an arrow of cupid. It happened just as simple as this; he walked in, my head was down, he asked me a question, I looked up to respond and our eyes locked ; I can't even begin to describe the feeling that entered inside of my being, my mind, my entire sou...

Whenever I began to clean the house my routine is to turn on my husband's PS3 and play my music folder (which contains a great variety of artists, might I add) but just a moment ago I grabbed a seat to take a little break and as I was sitting, Chris Botti came on, the song, " Embraceable You" and it relaxed me and I had become so comfortable in my seat that my mind drifted away to a beautiful scene of a moment of mine back in time and right then I said to myself "This is what I love". I love a peace of mind . I mean, you just can't buy that. I often find myself reveling in the many moments I'm blessed to receive that provides my environment to be at ease. And right now, I'm alone, the house has a wonderful aroma in the air, the music is playing, the door is ajar, the fan is on, the windows are open and the sun is shining so bright that it gives my place the perfect light. Aah!!! I love this feeling! No one is calling me, knocking at my door and the...

"People surprise you. You think they gone be a nothing and they turn out to be a something" --Curtis Jackson's Grandfather I was watching the "Behind the Music" of Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson and I caught the above quote from 50 Cents grandfather and I gotta' say that, I like it! The reason I like that quote is because people are so quick to judge a person by their trials and tribulations, when in truth, you must go through something to have a story to tell. You must go through levels of pain in order to appreciate the joy. If you are not blessed with situations to go through and everything comes to you quite easily, how would you know to respect the struggle? Or be grateful for the struggle because it should have made you a better person (humble, responsible and quietly powerful) , furthermore, why would anyone see you as GREAT? Because in essence you would have done nothing to earn it, nothing, for anyone to follow, resp...
