Hello June

Image
It is the beginning of a new month, which means the end of another. As I sit here and think about the fact that it is June already, I start to reflect on last month. Then I think back to the beginning of the year. Not just thinking about what I learned in May, but what has January through May 2024 taught me? We get to learn with each new day. It is up to us to recognize and absorb the lesson. We must see the signs we ask for, and act on them to achieve the things we prayed for. Sometimes we get distracted by the things we want and neglect the things we need. So I try to reflect on the past to help me improve my future. And as I think about the first 5 months of the year. I think about the list below. What has January through May 2024 taught me?? My circle isn't always as supportive as I think it is. There are people who aren't in my life on a daily basis that support me. I sometimes ignore the signs then act surprised when the sh!t hits the fan. I need to be more in-tuned with ...

Believe

  Right now, it seems like nothing is working out the way you need it to be The things that provided you security are all outside of your reach The things that once came easy are proving difficult to see And you’re holding on to this hope of things the way they used to be   But the past is not in your future Your future doesn’t hold your past Life changes and you’re heading down a new path   You’re not sure where it leads You can’t see the future of your dreams You want to believe life will be better than it used to be You hope the path leads to a better place than it is currently   Hold on to belief Believe it will be Work to succeed Promise yourself you won’t give in to defeat   You’re heading in the direction of your destiny Only you can stop you from arriving successfully Don’t be the one to impede the truth of your dreams You dreamt them because you can see the future of where your supposed to be   Believe ...

Hello... How are you?

  Hello? Is anyone one still out there?  Whew! It's has been a while. A few years to be exact. Have you ever spent time getting your life together and come across things you used to do in your past that you completely forgotten about? Well... that was this blog for me. Today, I was figuring out what my next move needs to be. What do I have that needs more energy from me in order for me to make it through the year. I have been in a career transition since Mar of last year (2023). It has been exciting, calm, uncertain, and filled with the unexpected. The unexpected has been both great and not-so-great. Interestingly enough, I have felt a calm feeling 90% of this journey so far. But it's a calm that both gives me confidence I am on the right path, and makes me worry a little that I am not panicking as much as part of me thinks I should. I can't explain it. However I will say, I have felt more peace than I have before.  So, what have I been up to since 2018? Ha!  Interes...

Thoughts

Sometimes new beginnings can remind you of the realities of life. The things that have been pushed back in your memory bank to help you remain happy. Those things you compartmentalize. The things you packed away and hoped to never unpack again.  As I am preparing for a new future and getting things in order. I am reminded of the people who are there and the ones who aren't. I am reminded on multiple levels. The deeper level of those who are no longer here with us and the surface level of those who are just not with me at the times I need someone. And I try to pack it away again, but sometimes my thoughts are larger than the storage container I have to hold them. So they linger. And I have no choice but to face them. Acknowledge them. Absorb them. Try to understand them to the point they are small enough to be tucked away again.  So as I sit here I am analyzing these thoughts, and molding them into smaller manageable pieces. And I do this alone. And wonder when that will end...

They Remind You

They always remind you Remind you of who they are Remind you that they haven't changed Remind you how they used to be Remind you why you walked away Remind you why you couldn't stay They always remind you

Why Do They Wait

Why do they wait until they f*ck up to tell you they love you? Why do they wait until you no longer want them to tell you how much you meant back then? Why do they wait?... Why do they wait to tell you?... Why do they think you'll forgive them? Why do they think you'll do it all over again? What do they think? Do they think? What do they think you will say? What do they think you will do? Why do they think you'll give them chance number two? Why do they think they deserve another shot? Why do they think you'd want to give it one more try? Why do they think the tears have dried? What gives you the right? Why would you try? Why do you think you deserve one more cry? Why did you have to lie? Why did you run and hide? Why didn't you appreciate it the first time? Why did you cover your eyes? Why didn't you see it when it was live? Why did you act like you didn't want to try? Why were you distance time after time?
