Simple Truths


Simple Truths


Cliches are so cliche right? Or sometimes even redundant.....that is up until my perception of them has been recently changed. That they're not just "cliches" but rather Simple Truths. The very simple truths  that sustains us in the face of adversity yet we too often tend to forget and need to be reminded of. So, here it is, today I boldly dare to be "cliche" & remind you to: 

"be kind to yourself", "take it a day at a time, better yet a thought/moment at a time", "exhale", "do the right thing", "treat others the way you would want to be treated", "look on the bright side", "this too shall pass", "where there's a will there's a way", "you are enough", "you are worthy", "beauty comes from within", "time heals all", "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger", "never give up", "dreams do come true", "you only live once!"



"Drench yourself in words unspoken, live your life with arms wide open. Today is where your books begins, the rest is still unwritten."

Word is Bond

Word Is Bond “In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God” (John1:1 )…..if I’m not mistaken I believe scripture is stating that God’s Word is his bond or even that he and all any of us ever truly have is his word, which is sufficient. How many times have you uttered or heard the phrases, “word is bond” or “all I have is my word”? I’m assuming quite enough   but I don’t think we really, fully grasp the spiritual magnitude those phrases holds. At least I know I didn’t up until I found myself back at that messy part of this healing journey, the “pain pit stop”! Where I’m experiencing a new cycle of pain and for a moment was temporarily tempted to “stop & fold at hurt” ( Blog #5, “When It Hurts-It Hurts”) simply because, well honestly, I was hurting. But then I recalled during a previous cycle of pain when I received one of the simplest yet most profound advice to simply “follow my words”. After all, my word is my bond right? See...

Note To Self- Trust The Mofo Process (TTMP)

Trust The Process Growing up, I've always heard folks amongst me say faith & fear/worry can't occupy the same space as well as worry or fear is the opposite of faith and that if you trust & have faith in God then there's no need to be worried. Now, while I agree that faith should diminish fear I've also learned that the true opposition to faith is in fact SIGHT.  I've gotten this lesson first hand through experimenting with "fortune telling". I found that even after "reading the signs"& coming to ones own interpretation or even receiving great news of things to come that I still couldn't find the peace of mind that my soul yearned to get me through the here & now and all the ups and downs it brings. After a series of lessons....& readings Allah revealed to me through a message delivered by Pastor Phil Munsey titled "Are We There Yet". See, Faith is much deeper than believing & knowing of the magn...
Note To Self We all love to acknowledge and affirm the star power that resides within us, well at least I know I do! From a young age, I have adopted the habit of convincing myself that no matter what or how others may perceive me Allah has created me to be a star & shine. What I failed to realize is that when God gave us the stars that not only shine at night but in actuality is providing our home, planet earth with light & ultimately life there was total darkness and if he ever decided to take them away then that's where we will find ourselves residing in that intense darkness. Recently it just hit me that with the intentions of the highest power/force ALL stars must travel the darker road so that it may be the light. Can you imagine just how much darker the nights would be without stars or how cold & dark the days would be without the brightest star of them all, the sun. I now travel this journey of life bearing in mind that in order to shine at my utmost po...
