Hair that changes with the seasons.
The randomness of who I am. I was talking to my beau the other day about my hair and he tells me…”Babe, why are you even looking for a signature look? Just resolve to the fact, you change your hair like the seasons.” He is right though 🙂 I took a minute and thought about his comment further AND the different hair styles I have had since I cut off my dreadlocks in the spring of 2005. For the 12+ years that I had them, even after they had reach well past my behind I attempted to spice them up with different styles. I guess that desire in me has not…

The small victories in battle prepare you for the war
Totally random… So I have this love, really a lust relationship going on with Reese’s peanut butter cups lately. Well, today I went to Kmart to pick up a few items and they had jumbo bags of them on sale for $2! In my weakness I picked up 2 bags and brought them to the office. However, me and God are working on something in regards to my weight and making healthier choices when it comes to my eating habits…the gym is for another blog article Going back to the chocolate, instead of hoarding them in my desk drawer and slowly eating both bags over the course of a week,…

The Effects of Mass Transit (bus and train) Lag vs. Jet Lag
Totally random thought. I think I am just recovering from mass transit (bus and train) lag vs. jet lag. Its three days since I came back from my Labor Day weekend day trip to CT and I am just starting to feel like myself. It could be the fact that when I got ALMOST home the trains/subway stopped running only hours after the Brooklyn Labor Day Parade ended. Where? at Prospect Park. If you are from New York and know the Caribbean Day Parade (Labor Day Parade) route, you know most folks that live in Flatbush, Brooklyn NY board the train at Prospect Park. So, after waiting for a bus…

Dreaming Big till I get to the Other Side of the Rainbow and beyond
What is the purpose of purpose? Is it not what motivates us to get up in the morning to pursue things that seem so far off that if only a dream? For what is a dream? The stuff of our imaginations slowly peeking at the walls of our containment; slowly taking form in our reality if only we dared to believe… AND step out. I purpose to dream… BIG what about you?

Reflecting and Correcting
Totally random thoughts this morning or maybe not; this past week I have been in self examination mode yet again. I purposely put in my schedule time to check my actions to see if they were lining up with the WORD of God or were beginning to be based in fear and just plain selfishness. Whenever I feel this happening it is a clear sign that I need to stop and recharge my spirit and body. Basically I needed to check my spiritual thermostat to see if I was running on empty, versus my overflow. Areas I needed to examine were my volunteerism (spiritual employment), my relationships with people and…

Rejoicing through the pressure
This past Sunday, I was called in to worship as an alternate singer at one of satellite church’s my local church supports. I woke up that morning with a pressure headache that made me want to stay home. I had planned out my trip ahead of time, but the train I was to take was pulled from the schedule. During the Praise and Worship section of service I felt actually at some points I was going to fall out. BUT and yes I do know but cancels out all that I just said. I rejoiced all the way through the pressure. My point in all this is to say…many times…

Girl what is your secret?
Lately folks have been telling me they believe and see that I am slimming down and have a new found glow. Some have asked “Girl what is your secret?” To tell you the truth… I believe the biggest change I have made to help me lose weight is increasing my Praise and Worship time. I am an energetic Praise Warrior. I feel truly blessed and honored to have the opportunity to serve as a member of my local church’s Music Ministry and as part of an awesome team that ministers/sings at our local area satellite churches.
