MOOD: CONFUSED
TRACK: RYAN LESLIE: HOW IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
The Benediction
Greeting all! I truly hope this post finds you all in the highest of spirits and the best of health.
I've been doing a lot of thinking lately and I've come to the conclusion that I have to do what's best for me. I know it sounds a bit selfish, but if I don't look out for me, who will? It's sad that people enter your life and cause chaos and confusion, but they are there for that purpose...learn from them. I look at those types and know exactly what NOT to do and how NOT to act.
Some people enter your life and stay for a season while others stay for a lifetime. I've only met a few that have stayed for longer than a season, but everyone of them has served their purpose. I just pray that I don't make the mistake of making seasonal friends lifelong ones because in the longrun, they're not meant to be.
There are always wolves disguised as sheep that try to bring you down...I have gained the ability to spot them out. I know who's down for me and who's not. I'm re-evaluating some people and some things. If I cut you off, don't feel bad and please don't be mad. You were only meant for a season and that season, just like autumn, has come to an end...
It's time to give the benediction...
Until we meet again...
Peace & love...

Independence Day
MOOD: BLAH
TRACK: ALICIA KEYS- DRAGON DAYS
INDEPENDENCE DAY
Greetings Blogworld! I hope this entry finds you in the best of health and the highest of spirits.
Happy 4th of July Everyone!! Hope you all had fun hanging out with family, attending cookouts, and watching fireworks. I didn't do any of the fore mentioned things. I was at home in my room almost all day. It's not that I didn't want to partake in any of the festivities going on, it's just that I had something more to celebrate. I was celebrating being alone. See, what most people don't understand is that there is a difference between being alone and being lonely. I am far from lonely. What better way to celebrate being alone, then...well being alone?
I have grown to love my own company and I think it's important, especially if I expect others to enjoy my company. How can I expect them to appreciate my company if I don't, so I took the time to hang with myself.
I stayed home and watched movies, wrote in my transcript, and just enjoyed the silence. Sometimes you just need a lazy day to sit back, relax, and do some refelction. To some, this sounds boring, but I had a great day. I hope that you all can take out the time to enjoy time alone. Take a lazy day for yourself and do nothing.
Until we meet again...
Peace and love...

NEW DAY
MOOD: REFRESHED
TRACK: RUDY CURRENCE-HERE WITH YOU
NEW DAY
Good day blog world! I hope this entry finds you in the best of health and the highest of spirits.
I woke up this morning in my usual early morning mood...irritable. To say I'm not a morning person would be an understatement. If I could sleep every day til noon, I probably would. So, when i had to get up at 6am in preparation for work, I was less than thrilled. But, when I was on my way to work I saw the sun rising. It's amazing how little things can completely change your perspective.
Every day is a new day. I know what you're thinking. Duh! But it's so much more than just a new day. It's a new opportunity. A new chance to right a wrong, pay back a debt, get over a grudge, meet someone new, or just celebrate the day. Take advantage.
until we meet again,
peace & love...

BAD...& you know it!
Mood: Mourning
Track: Michael Jackson: PYT
Greeting blogworld! I hope that this entry finds you in the best of health & the highest of spirits.
Michael Jackson is dead...still feels weird to say. The entire world was stunned when the King of Pop's death was confirmed. I didn't want to believe it & I hoped it was a cruel joke, but it wasn't.
It's been several days & I didn't expect for it to hit me so hard. A celebrity that I have never met passed away...so what. But, that is definitely not how I felt. I felt like I knew Michael Jackson. His music made me feel like that. It was so personal. When I watched the coverage of all of the memorials around the world, I knew I wasn't the only one to feel this way. It's funny how me, my mom, my grandparents, & my little nephew can all listen to MJ's music & sing along without missing a beat. No one else's music can bridge generations like that.
Of course, there are those who don't feel differently. I instantly became angry when I read facebook comments & status that stated ignorant things like, 'as least your little boys will be safe now' or 'he's 90% plastic, just melt him down & make him a toy'. Regardless of how one feels about MJ personally, his amazing musical contributions to the world are undeniable. He deserves his crown. I've watched so many music specials in the past few days & I am still amazed at the things this man has done. He used his music to break down racial barriers & don't get me started on his philanthropy! People just became obsessed with his personal life. I just hope that he is remembered as the icon & legend he is & not the mockery people made him out to be.
Regardless of your feelings of Michael Jackson as a person, he's bad, he's bad & you know it!
Til we meet again,
Peace & love...
