On his album, MusiqintheMagiq , Musiq Soulchild has this track, Single , that has become more than my theme song. It has become my anthem, my kick boxing jam, my wake up sound, and my ringtone. As much as I have dissected this song and contemplated its awesomeness, it still surprises me that on this vast planet a collection of men think the same way as the message of the song. As a single woman, I can appreciate the beauty of faithfulness in other couples. Ten years ago, I thought I would have been married with two kids, one on the way, and working as a nurse. Then, real life kicked my behind all around the east coast. I grew up kind of sheltered, but my parents and brothers broke down the game of life the best they could for my sister and me. Either way, there are some things that I am still getting used to seeing and dealing with living on my own. Examples? In an act of community service, I helped pick up trash on my street with other organi...

I just realized that this year marks my ten year since high school graduation. I have no idea if there will be a reunion or not because of my lacking a Facebook page(apparently everyone is on it). My Facebook free movement is to see how my productivity goes and focus on the more important things, like my spiritual health, my freelance writing, and this new job I started a little over a week ago. Then I was like, "sweet niblets, I haven't blogged in a minute. What have I have doing?" Well, let me tell ya... I was stalked, had a horrible boss, was in a financial struggle, people I thought were caring are actually deceitful and trying to break bonds.

Despite all of that happening and losing my dear Uncle Harold in death, I still have the nerve to be working, writing and being my best, at my best. I'm still battling the events that have happened from a few years until now. However, what's the point of stre...

After four and a half years in the finance industry, I am happy to say that my banking career is over. I've had epiphanies, dreams, and reality checks on events that have happened in my life. Everything from the awful boss I had in my first banking job to the change of culture in my second banking job. I was waiting for some harsh treatment but it never came. The storm had passed but I was still suited for the worst. It's finally time to let go and progress onto better things. I was finally blessed with a job that I enjoy. I'm back working with kids and have more time for my writing and research. My outlook on the banking world could have been ruined by this ignorant, bitter heifer who continues to maintain a heartless demeanor. But I have been praying to Sweet God that He teaches me how to forgive her so I can move on. The sad part about this society that we live in is that we can insult each other in less than five seconds at the blink of an eye. But ask us to say s...
