I am #purplestrong

Many bloggers set aside one post that sort of serves as an "About Me" post. I haven't technically done that for my readers just yet. You've heard a lot about my hobbies, the people I love, facts, and my guardian angel. You've read random things about me, as well as seen my art. I'm sure you've all been learning a lot about who I am through my other blog posts and social media sources! I wanted you to understand where my motivation comes from, as well and my strength. Enjoy! People ask me all of the time how I do it. I am a mommy, a soulmate, friend, bowling coach, government employee, artist, business owner, student, housekeeper, warrior and often times a personal chef. My two jobs are incredible, yet the schedule I keep is crazy. I work my day job from 7:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. (M-F) then my evening job is from (T-F) 6:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. (sometimes 10 p.m.), then I work on my school work from 10:00 p.m. until midnight (or I am finished)....

Two for the price of one?! Lucky You!

Valentines Day Part 1.

Image
Okay everyone, let’s be real here. Valentines day is one of my least favorite days. Why? Because 1) it commercializes my favorite emotion. Love is so beautiful. I am thankful to love and be loved. Love can come from many sources. Love, in it’s purest form can give you a greater high then medicine ever could.  2) I believe you should show the people you love that you love them everyday. Sure, it’s nice to recieve gifts, but for me I am not interested in material things. I am interested in knowing that I am being thought of. I want my friends, family and significant other to know in their hesrts that I love them with all of my being. With that being said, I still celebrate, but it wouldn’t upset me if I didn’t. Like I stated earlier, I enjoy expressing my love daily. For those who enjoy the holiday, please don’t let my opinion sway you. Celebrate and live your life.  Now, for the title. I chose this title because since the “holiday” fell on a Thursday this hear, and I have ...

The prompt I ch...

10 things that you might not know about me

I was searching the web for a blog idea and I came across this one. I thought it was really cool. My life has been so crazy lately, I just wanted to write a fun post to let off some steam. So, here are some random details about me! 1) I was born without my tonsils. 2)I fell down the steps and cracked my head open when I was a baby. 3)I can read, write and comprehend extremely fast. 4)I've always wanted to go to Disney, but I've never been there. 5)I hate whipped cream. It grosses me out. Same with tuna. 6)I used to be an awesome skateboarder. Bowling and art have consumed my life's passions. There are days where I miss the parks and showing off my kickflip. 7)I have only been on a plane once in my life and I was 23 years old. 8)I dream of going to the following places: -Australia -Canada -Jamaica -Hawaii -A cruise (anywhere) -Northern Lights 9)I'm afraid of those biscuits pop rolls, bridges, and bees.

Different Worlds with a chance of forgiveness.

Image
Life is very often taken for granted. Not always purposely, but with the hustle and bustle of our busy lives, we tend to forget the details/ We often react harshly to initial emotion. In the process, we unintentionally hurt loves ones. Our judgment becomes clouded, and the possibility of disagreement is created with the people in our lives. Fights are inevitable but they waste time. Differences in personalities and opinion are usually the culprit. The world is a melting pot, so differences are not necessarily a bad thing. However, when a discrepancy or an argument surfaces you must do your best to work it out. "Cool, calm and collected is ideal, but sometimes seems impossible." when you hurt someone's feelings you must analyze it. The idea is to resolve it before you waste too much time and energy on it. I grew up modestly. I didn't come from a wealthy family, so I learned value very quickly. Whenever I receive anything, I am extremely thankful. I tak...
