On Taking Affirmative Action & Responsibility Of Our Lives

So, when a theme becomes repetitive in my life I feel a responsibility in a sense to shout it from the rooftops! I personally am in a total transitional phase in my life - there is a major shift going on in love, career and family life and I can attribute nearly all of it to the shift in my mind and how I have been taking control of what serves me and I have been releasing what doesn't. The transformation within me did NOT happen over night and it will not occur this way in you either; however, it all starts with taking personal responsibility. And before I delve any further into this topic - I will tell you right now that I don't have it all figured out and this is a topic that needs constant attention and divine nurturing.

We all have the power to live the life that we have always dreamed of, fall in love with the person that we have manifested in our minds and feel at peace knowing that our lives truly fulfill us - we ALL deserve this. But along with deserving this, we must be courageous with how we walk through our lives and be conscious of what thoughts we allow to flow through our beautiful minds. I will give you a perfect, personal example - I left an abusive relationship in October of 2016. Since I left, I sought to find what was missing from the marriage that drained me of my spirit. I searched for what I lacked for the 7+ years that I spent in that situation and couldn't find even an ounce of what my soul craved which was really that one person who would be man enough to grab hold of my heart and let me know that we could march forth together and face any obstacles that will be hurled our way. It was almost immediately when I gave up on my search for my other half when the one who I truly feel is meant to occupy that space in my life walked into my life. It was just like that; he walked into my life and instead of dimming my flame, he helped me to burn brighter. I allowed him into the depths of who I am, stripped naked of everything that I have worn around as a suit of armor for the passed 8 years of my life, partially feeling vulnerable at becoming so transparent in the eyes of someone new but at the same time ready to be loved and treated like a queen.

The purpose of all of my rambling? Manifest what you want - close your eyes and imagine it, feel all the feelings associated with what it is that you really desire. Next is simple, make space in your life for what you want, clear out old patterns and people that no longer serve you or your purpose. Take control over your thoughts and the energies of the people that you allow to flow through your life.

What is Domestic Violence?

What is Domestic violence? Domestic violence is a crime that almost always has no face or voice,  the victim negates their voice and the criminal remains in the shadows. Domestic violence is the monster that lives under each victims bed and breathes fire into their nightmares in the form of fear, depression,  anxiety, etc. Domestic Violence doesn’t always show up in the form of cuts and bruises on our skin, no the domestic violence I have known and lived is much worse and has produced a  gaping hole in my soul. I lived in a vicious circle of being abused day in and day out, not by physical force – which in my opinion would have been way better than the EMOTIONAL pain that I endured. My domestic violent situation came in the form of venomous words that cut me deeper than any sword could slice flesh. #DomesticViolence does not discriminate against creed nor color, it will not avoid any specific economic class. DV is kin of assault, harassment and even murder and the majority of the ti

An Open Letter To The Person Dragging Me Down

Today we got into it, just like any other day except for the fact that you were drunk and more verbally abusive than normal. During the day, we had a heart to heart in which I thought you were being sincere. You told me you feel so bad about yourself for being such a disappointment all of your life which is why you turn to beer  Which deep down, I know is just part of the pity party you throw yourself daily. I told you that everyone that you have disappointed throughout your life doesn't give a shit anymore because they are out there living their lives, the ones you are disappointing the most are your kids and I. You were speechless, so I thought we had some sort of a breakthrough. As the night went on, I watched a movie with my little ones,  eventually falling asleep on the couch while you sat in front of the house and drank maybe 8 bottles of beer and half of a bottle of wine. When you decided you wanted more, you woke  me up out of a dead sleep trying to convince me about how i

Mariah, Don't Let Your Attitude Defeat Your Purpose!!

All throughout my childhood, adolescence and even now that I am a grown adult with children my mother still tells me " Don't Let Your Attitude Defeat Your Purpose!" I never really understood what she meant until I was out in the world, on my own and responsible for making the decisions that have absolutely shaped my life today. What the phrase "Don't let your attitude defeat your purpose" means is to not permit any form of negativity to let you lose sight of what you want to achieve in your life! If you want to land that promotion at work you will not achieve it by sitting around thinking about how difficult or impossible it is to attain - you can achieve it by changing your can'ts into cans. Anything is attainable and within your reach as long as you believe it is!
