After a long busy day, I open the door of my home and sit my bags down. Natural light fills the house. I take a deep breath to say, “Honey I’m
Why You're single
Many people remain single, not because they haven’t found the right person, but because they have not developed the art of appreciation.
Dear Reader,
I challenge you to acknowledge the value and meaning of someone in which you show gratitude.
She said Yes
Three little letters, one life changing answer. She walks in surprised. All of her closest friends, family and extended honor her with roses. Down on one knee he asked, “Will you marry me?” Tears filled her round sized eyes as time stood still. Auntie Dee and Grandmother would be proud. This is your moment and I couldn’t be happier for you.

Adult Summer Camp
When I was younger, I always heard about kids my age attending cool summers camps. Those camps included fun hiking adventures, cool fun learning activities during the day and by night gatherings around the campfire. Now that I’m older I wish to attend or gather some cool interesting people together for an adult summer camp with the same concept. We’d start the morning off in the cafe after which we’d meet on the lawn where our camp song is played. Breaking into group that would rotate the daily activities such as creating your own cocktails, pickle ball sessions, making bowls from clay, doge ball, and other fun task. This would last two weekends in the summer. So, one in June and one in July.
Dear Reader,
We might get older, but that’s doesn’t mean we have to grow up.
When I say I Do
Therapy opened my Eyes
I started therapy years ago. Many have asked, “Do you like it”? “Has it really helped you”? I always respond with a proper, “Absolutely, I love it” and that’s the truth. From my experience I went in with a willingness to understand my younger child. Where I was in my life, I wanted to figure out why I felt like an “adult child.” I was always told

A girl name Jill
Jill was the woman every girl envied, and every guy wanted to enter. She walked around with her head high and her heels even higher. She very often indulged in classic activities such as pottery, hiking, and tennis. Her life appeared to be a bed of roses, at least that’s what it looked like to a simple observer. Jill was the type of woman that always got what she wanted, not just off her good looks, but her stellar personality. One thing about Jill was she knew what she wanted and knew how to get it. Business mindset fueled her heart which intimidated the men, she would try getting to know. Some could say that she was a tough shell to crack, but when you got to know her, you were obsessed.
Dear Reader
Do you know Jill?

Thirty
As I approach my thirtieth birthday, I reflect on the person I’ve become. Turning thirty still baffles me, but in a good way though. I realize that I am the “new adult”. They say the thirties are the new twenties and quite frankly I agree to a certain extent. Is it possible to feel younger while getting older? I am grateful for what my twenties taught me from setting boundaries to communicating one’s feelings in a way that I comprehend how it affects the people around me. Emotional maturity has developed in unfathomable ways.
Dear Reader
Millions didn’t make it, but I am one of the ones who did.
Dear Reader: The Playlist
Music translates beyond its waves. It communicates a language that can transcend the listener to an outer body experience. Nostalgia can penetrate the present moment, moving you right where you once were. If your life were a ten-song playlist, what would it consist of? Would you only include the warm songs despite having been left in the cold without a jacket?
Dear Reader
Take this time to list your ten songs.
Painting with a Twist
You, Me, and New York
There is nothing like being in the city of Manhattan. There’s just something about it I’m so drawn to. I came for the fashion, had a date with romance, but stayed for central park and the coffee. Today reminds me of the time I planned a date with this ravishing young beauty and never spoke to them again. It wasn’t because we didn’t connect at some sort of level, it was because they were “too busy. At least that’s what I tell myself. We talked over dinner, laughed over dessert and that was it.
Dear Reader
Some people are meant for a season and some just for 24 hours. It’s okay to enjoy the company had without feeling you’ve wasted any time, because at the moment it stood still.
We're Not Really Strangers
Unsure of companionship this night I was intrigued on seeing you in person. We went back and forth through messages to make sure this was something we really wanted to do. Moments before your arrival I’d tidied up my home and showered. It felt like a blind date almost, but the only thing was … we weren’t set
