Today marks my One Month Anniversary since I’ve begin blogging! Starting this blog, and being able to give a voice to my imagination, has really helped heal me in many ways. Just a few months ago, I was incredibly sad; I felt like a part of me was missing – been missing for years. Not just that, I was missing my niece and nephews, after caring for them while my sister healed. It was a lot of emotions migrating inside of me. That’s when I started changing up my routine, painting more, and with that, I started writing again. It’s like a part of me, that was hidden away, has been unleashed. I don’t know why I stopped exactly. Though, I’m glad I’ve regained my love for it again!
I just wanted to thank everyone that’s been following and liking my work. It means the world to me. The biggest blessing from this journey is the feedback that I’ve received from everyone. It has helped me evolve in positive ways, and I’ll always be grateful!
This year has definitely taught me a lot, with the biggest lesson being: if you ever feel lost from yourself, try to remember, and connect, with what you like doing. Another thing I learned. Take chances. Spread your wings; try new things. Apart of you that’s missing, may still be waiting to be found.
Thanks again everyone for the love!

Congratulations on your month of blogging! 😊
I have been writing my blog for 2 weeks, and I am loving this platform. I have been wanting to share but fearful of being so open. I have always thought of my poetry as a window to my soul.
When I read this post I thought of a poem I wanted to share with you, I hope that it is ok.
If you have a day
When you feel far away
From the things that make you, you
The way that in life you sometimes do
Stop and take a look around
Are your feet planted on the ground
Feel the earth beneath your feet
With your hand, feel your heartbeat
Take in a breath of air
And realize that you’re still here
The way that God has designed
Where your journey is separate from mine
There will be those who challenge
Your ability to stay balanced
People who just can’t be content
Who pass along their resentment
Who long for others to take their struggles
It is up to them to learn to juggle
That doesn’t mean for you not to extend
A loving hand in their direction
God likes for us to help
Those who also try to help themselves
Just know that it is not up to you
To carry alone, those burdens too
Try your best to show others Grace
Remember your sins God forgave
Holding onto resentment
Only hurts you in the end.

That is very beautiful! 😊 Did you write it?! I appreciate you sharing it with me; I needed some words of encourage. This was right on time! I can’t thank you enough. As for your blog, your poetry is amazing, and your words give it a vision! It’s scary, sometimes, sharing words from the heart. I think it’s something we all go through, though in the end, we end up being our own biggest critics lol I love your work and look forward to reading more!!
