SECRET LOOOVAZ!

I love love! I may even consider myself a border line, closeted hopeless romantic. I'll admit. I often find myself looking through those wedding magazines, picking out bridesmaid dresses for my friends when I don't even have a boyfriend. But that's just between you and me. It's just the stuff you have to go through to BE in love that scares the hell out of me. 

Like, I'm on this flight right now. This couple sitting a few rows in front of me is HELLA old right? And they are all hugged up, holding hands and napping. Now, the average person might look at them and think, "Awwww! that's so beautiful, I want that one day" But I'm sitting here thinking "damn, I wonder how many baby mamas she had to deal with to get that" or "I wonder if he gotta deal with a crazy mama in law". Guys, it`s real out here. Don`t get lost in the hype of being in a relationship or holding a title. There is so much more to it. They look good on social media but homegirl can`t even cook cereal. They hugged up at the movies but she has to deal with his nasty chest hair when he takes off his shirt.

With all of that being said, Ladies and Gents, I ask you, is the struggle really worth it?

SHIFT YOUR ENERGY

"Get ready for a shift." Aight so boom... I used to think that only crazy, unfortunate things happened to me . Like, I was the only one to be chubby and teased as a child, I was the only clumsy kid who dropped everything, I never really won anything, I was the only one in the world who tried to make a mother's day spread and it end up being too salty to eat. At one point, I started calling myself "Bad Luck Brit". Whatever energy you put out comes back to you. Photo: Sierra Campbell Because of those experiences, I went through most of life almost always expecting things to turn out for the worst. I mean, I would think of the most horrible case scenario for every situation. Me: *Gets a new job* Also, Me: "Watch, I'm gone get fired for this pink hair and nose ring." Me: *Meets a nice man* Also, Me: "Watch, he gone have a secret relationship, a hidden baby and commitment issues." See what I'm saying? There...

BUILDING SEASON

"Ok. But, when?" Aight so boom, last week we discussed being in a season of waiting. Now, waiting doesn't mean sitting there and doing absolutely nothing. When you're waiting in the doctor's office, do you just stare at the ceiling? No, you're either reading the magazines they provide, scrolling through your phone, or thinking about your next move. Watch how I'm bout to hit ya'll with this metaphor... Photo: My Mama If you are occupying your waiting time while in the doctor's office, why not apply that same concept to your everyday life and BUILD on your dreams while you wait. God is the doctor. While you're in his waiting room, you need to be thinking about your next move. Did ya'll like that or was that too much? Sorry. The black church is jumping out of me. In honor of 314 day, I'm going to give ya'll a quick peek into my BUILDING SEASON in that waiting room in St. Louis:  Ya'll know this story. About the ti...

I'M HELLA BORED: CHANGE OF HABITS

"Ugh, I'm bored." Hey ya'll! Welcome to 2019! I'm so glad that you decided to bring me with you instead of leaving me in the old year with all the people you hate. I know it's the top of the year and most of us are already a few days into our new diet plans. We cold. We mean. And we hungry. But, if you want to see change, you have to make a change, right? Photo: My Mama Change is the one thing that is consistent in our lives. Nothing ever stays the same. For the month of January, I'll be talking to you all about CHANGE . Which can mean a lot of different things for a lot of people. For me, this first week of 2019, it meant boredom . Before Christmas, I promised myself that after I finished my last blog post, I was taking some time to myself. Now, if ya'll follow me on social media, you know I go hard with the self promotion. I'm in ya'll face every. damn. day. And it ain't nothing you can do to stop me because I feel like I ha...
