2:25 pm  until…

I’m in love, of this I’m sure.  In love with the way the wind hits my back, with how the sun kisses my face, with how cool the waves of the lake feel when they surround me.  In love with the lush green I see.  The leaves waving high above me.  The grass between my toes.  In love, you see.  In love with that furry little squirrel that crosses my path, not afraid of me at all.  In love with the cute little baby I just seen =)  Only God could give blessings like these.  And finally, I’m in love with me.  Just as I am, I take me.  Creative, concerned, caring, giving, loving, sometimes naïve, ever-growing and learning.  In love with how I see the world.  Looking through my eyes has never been better!  In love with how I dress, in love with this three week old toe nail polish =)  in love with my family, in love with m smile.  In love with my tender soul and the bitchy sides of me.  In love and it feels so good to be in love WITH ME.  In love with summer, gosh, it makes me smile.  In love with my mind.  In love with my tiny eyes.  In love with how much I resemble my mother, and although I don’t remember her, I see pieces of her every day.  In love with the spirals of my hair, topped with a flower =)  In love with God above and all around me.  In love with the people he has placed in my life.  In love with love, it feels so nice!  In love with happiness =)

29 novembre 2011 - random thoughts over the past 24 hours

nothing happens/exists in a vacuum.. so don't set your focus so fiercely on just ONE thing.. the world has so much more to offer than that.




imagine if you had to tell your child, niece/nephew, cousin that they couldn't drink from a certain water fountain, couldn't eat at a certain place, or that they had to stand up to let someone else sit down... all because of the color of their skin. It hurts to even think about, doesn't it?? Thank God we come from a long line of people who fought to change this. Honor them by manifesting excellence in your life. ♥


Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. —Marianne Williamson


dealing with "natural" hair is such a pain in the winter... but I wouldn't trade it for the world... now let me get back to researching "protective hairstyles!"


listening to Drake somehow makes my life better.  I love his music.


That is all.  Grazie a tutti.

an old thought

eh, i wouldn't exactly call it poetry, just some.. FLOWetry.. something I wrote a while back in response to a situation where i felt like someone didn't really care to know me as they seemed to "care".. anywho...  Since You Asked:

Hey there...

I just thought I would tell you.  You know, since you wanted to know.

My favorite color is green.  You have to think of palm trees to see the green I’m seeing.

One day I want to drive a jeep wrangler.. top off.. wind in my hair... one day I’ll get there.

I can’t swim to save my life... No, really, I can’t.  I hope you don’t mind me on floaties.

Since you asked, yes, I would love to just sit on the grass in this summer night.. under the stars as the breeze blows.

Yea, hot tea is always cool with me.

Noooo, I despise cold weather. That is, unless you’re down to cuddle.  Then that’s fine.

Yaye for my first Blog post!!! =)
