Weight Loss Challenge- Day 5

It is the 5th day and here are my new video posts    

Consistency in Our Identity

**This would come at a time where I should be sleeping or studying for finals, but hey, such is life** We are forever changing; nevertheless, through our growth there are some aspects about our character composition that should indeed be unchanging. There ought to be a creed that we decide to live by that frames [...]

The Conscious Engineer

Below is documentation of what I’ve learned in this class. I can truly say I have grown beyond measure from being abroad these past 6 months. It has been fun, exhilarating, life-changing, difficult, hard, eye-opening, etc. Being here has truly broaden my perspective and my scope on life. I truly believe that I am learning [...]

Unfamiliarities

  So I didn’t have the pleasure of watching BET’s Black Girls Rock, but I did see the newly developed legendary performance of Kelly, Marsha, Jill & Ledisi (Yes, I am on first named bases with these ladies).  I have yet to see For Colored Girls the movie but I’m familiar with the storyline and [...]

Release of Fear–Thanks to Kanye

  My biggest fear in the last 5 years was saying what I felt/believed. As vocal as I am, I still lost my voice year by year because if I would have “said anything, I felt I would have lost everything.” I strangled myself in ways that affected me in every single aspect of my [...]

Confessions

In my efforts to finish taking out braids, I have only a list full of confessions for the last post for this week. They aren’t all deep…well, some of them are. Through my blogs, I show the world who I am, and broadcast life from my point-of-view. So, as some of this may be personal, [...]

God Sometimes Gives You Wisdom in Order to Know What to Ask of Him

Grateful

So…. I took a break from everything, including writing. The things I’ve learned during my break stretch far beyond what I can write in a blog; however, there is one thing that is clear as day. Today, my pastor talked about thankfulness, and as I have been reflecting through everything that has occurred in my [...]

The Price Tag—Ultimatums and Whatnot

So in response to a commenter (I have commenter’s people! I’m soooo happy), she basically told me if he does nothing, I do nothing. And that’s exactly what I plan to do plus some extra. If I could label Summer 2010, I’ll label it, “Put a price on it.” And that’s what I’ve decided to [...]

My Beat Goes….

My beat goes… I walk to a different beat! There is no better or shorter way to put it. When God made me, I felt he took a lot of everything, along with himself, and I came into existence shortly afterward. I think everyone is complex and special, in their own unique way (what an [...]
