My Journal… My Journey…
One thing I will never understand is why people are so afraid of change. Some people will never look to build a relationship with someone outside of their circle of friends... or better put, "safety net". I was talking to a friend tonight about how some of his friends and family never thought of leaving... Continue Reading →
I know that I should be positive, grateful, and hopeful for my future. I should be smiling with joyful gladness about all that God has blessed me with.

I'm sitting in my apartment listening to instrumental music as I look out of my window into the night. Today was an interesting day to say the least. But, even though today wasn't the best of days... I have to admit that I did enjoy my weekend 🙂 . As I did have the opportunity... Continue Reading →
How many times have you heard someone say, "Ugghhh! They just don't understand!" For me, I would say I've probably heard it an unfathomable about of times.

"Going nowhere fast, we've reached the climax. We're together, now we're undone. Won't commit so we choose to run away... do we separate? Oh, don't wanna give in so we both gave up. Can't take it back, it's too late, we've reached the climax." Those are lyrics from a song Usher co-wrote and performed called "Climax". As I... Continue Reading →
