Excellence Requires discipline. Discipline Requires Focus. Focus is the ability to shut out the din of the noise of chaos. You do that by humming the song that’s in your heart. Don’t hear a song? Make one up and move to it. Yes, “dance your way out of your constrictions”.Rejoice in the LORD always. Again,Continue reading “Put in the Work”

Finite
It occurs to me that most people arguably speak as though our language is filled with finite expressions. Finite: having limits or bounds; (verb) having a specific tense, number, and person. I won’t make this long, just know that my love of language goes deep. It’s why I choose to allow my heavenly Father toContinue reading “Finite”
Passing
By now you’ve heard about the professor who “passed” as a black woman for many years. I’m not made at her … she’s lived what she was trying to teach. She has a better understanding of what the protests and kneeling is truly about. On the flip side, it shows that Black is truly aContinue reading “Passing”
Sexual Wampum ~ 3.1
I listened intently as the speaker spoke about the dangers of sex outside of commitment. He named the usual suspects, pregnancy, std, sin. SIGH I was disappointed. They all leave out the least obvious. No one seems to remember that sex is the most intimate thing two people can do together. It is literally openingContinue reading “Sexual Wampum ~ 3.1”
Random Musings
I don’t get many comments on my posts, and the stats say that not many people read or share them … (A BIG THANK YOU TO THE ONES WHO’VE SUBSCRIBED).I believe it’s because I haven’t been as constant as I should have been in the past. I’m working to erase that by scheduling times toContinue reading “Random Musings”

Marriage 2.1 (Prized Wampum)
Today, I was asked by a random stranger if I enjoyed being married. I told her that I am very happy. She looked puzzled and stated that she’d heard that it’s hard and like being in prison. I told her that it is hard in that you have to overlook a lot and to removeContinue reading “Marriage 2.1 (Prized Wampum)”

Body Dysmorphia
I’ve been NOT liking my body ever since my Aunt told me I was fat, I was very young. I thought I had BD, but after taking this unofficial test… I may have to rethink a few things. My hubby calls me sexy, desirable, and a veritable buffet of scrumptious… well, you know. 😉 But I’veContinue reading “Body Dysmorphia”

Philippians 4:9 Whatever you have learned and received and heard from me, and seen in me, put these things into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. 10 Now I rejoice greatly in the Lord that at last you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned,but you had no opportunity to showContinue reading “…Learned To Be Content…”
