Welcome to Me

Hey y'all, I’m back in my element for the first time in a while and you’re welcome in advance! I started writing my blog late 2018 and I stayed strong till around COVID time into 2021 here and there which I’m very proud of. It seems like life just got the best of me and it was hard to find the freedom of expression I once had. As of late I’ve been working on myself a lot and finding ways to embrace pockets of joy amidst the chaos of daily struggles. I realize more and more that it’s a choice what we choose to put our energy into everyday. It could look different moment to moment, especially year to year, but what matters most is the intentions behind our decisions, not the strides in progress. Survival mode is real but so is the reality that the more stress you put on yourself, the less chance you have at adapting away from that mindset. Being proactive and setting yourself up for potential success is more beneficial than being reactive to failure. When we persevere against the challenges we face, it can be difficult to keep going forward without validation in our actions yet we forget the value of a tenacious spirit. Let us not hinder ourselves based on fictitious measurements. The validation we’re seeking can only be found within ourselves. One day you’ll look back and realize how much you’ve accomplished over a year, then a few years, and so on till you have something uniquely special to you. Not because no one else could do it, but because you did it. Greatness takes time and it’s important to give yourself grace and continuously strive for yourself, not anyone else. My dedication to the truth and discovering my life’s joy is unmatched and I hope all of you find something you’re passionate about and keep pursuing until it’s attained. I’ll leave you with this, you only lose once you quit.
