I AM SO MUCH MORE...

Do you know what it feels like going through life and not knowing that you are so much more than you know? Well, I just realized it. A few minutes ago, a song triggered all my emotions, because it made me realize that I have been hiding in a shell all my life. It brought to my attention that I am running out of time, that I am perfect, and that I am very insecure. It is crazy that I have been crying for hours because I just realized I have been short-changing myself in everything, be it my school work, grades, relationships, or even within my family. The craziest part is that I did it to myself. 
It is even more unbelievable because, despite the thousand cheerleaders that surround me, I was lacking the greatest cheerleader a person could ever need, and that's myself. I have never really been my cheerleader, and it just dawned on me. The level of damage I have done is a lot, and I have to clean my mess before it is too late. This is too much to believe, but I am thankful that I have at least realized it.
So, I say a big thank you to Johnny Drille for the unwanted but welcome trigger. Thank you for letting me know that I am so much more. Thank you for letting me know that despite my self-love, it is not enough. Thank you for the discovery that my life is in a shell I erected. Thank you for informing me that I can't know my very best if I don't come out of the darkness I put myself in. Thank you for letting me know that I have to put myself first and that I need to step out into the light. Many thanks for letting me know I AM SO MUCH MORE, I NEED TO SEE THE SUN, AND THAT I AM THE VERY BEST.
To those who need this boost, I don't know if the song will trigger you as it did me, but the song is MY KIND OF BROWN by Johnny Drille.

So, please never forget, that you are perfect, you are so much more, and insecurities only create unnecessary setbacks for you. Love yourself truly, spread your wings, stop hiding, and fly because you are so much more.

I AM NOT...

I am not your friend. I am not your age mate. I am not your family member. I am not your church member. I am not your girlfriend/boyfriend. I am not feminine/masculine. I am not childish. I am not on your level. I am not your helper. I am not your enemy. I am not a fake person. I am not a deceitful person. I am not a mean person. I am not a tactless person. I am not a nice person. Why do we have to state a fact that we say is obvious? Why do we waste our time talking about what we are not when we can invest our quality time in talking about what and who we truly are? (not in a proud manner) What do we expect these statements to do? Why do we believe that this “I am not” statement is necessary for our lives? Why don’t we like to talk about ourselves and others in a positive light? This “I am not” culture has affected some people to the extent that, in cases where they are to describe themselves, they will tell you one thousand (1,000) things they are not, but cannot tell yo

SOMETIMES A BREAKUP ISN'T BAD...

You know I like you, I know you like me, They know we like each other. Our parents have given their consent. But, we are not compatible, So, why are we still together? Why did you propose to me? Why did I accept your proposal? Why have we fixed a wedding date? Why are we getting married? Why have we gotten married? Two years later, why are we still married? Why did we have kids? How de we have two (2) kids? Should we have brought kids into this? And now, 10 years later, why are we just breaking up? How did we last this long? Should we have done this earlier? How did we come so far? Why did we ever start? Now, I don’t like you. You don’t like me. We both hate each other. Our parents can’t stand each other. We really shouldn’t have started this. Now, our children will be the ones to suffer for this. Photo credit: Google.com Octavio Fossatti on Unsplash.com Dreamstime.com

Being INEM...

Today is dedicated to my friend, Inem. You see Inem is this guy that dislikes my taste in music and doesn't appreciate my food combination, but I forgive him because he doesn't know what he is missing. This is by the way, so, the reason I am writing this is to appreciate Inem, my dear friend. Before I appreciate Inem, let me tell you how we met. I met Inem (please forgive me, but I like the sound of his name, so I will write it many times, and also so he can know this is about him) at film school. I have no idea how we started talking, but I am sure he threw a jab my way, and I threw a jab back. We started talking, but took a mini-break, as Mr Inem thought I was snubbing him. We picked up our conversation and it wasn't bad. I guess he must have forgiven me (what a nice fellow). Anyways, Inem and I spoke more after film school. How that happened, I have never known, but meeting him and a few unnamed others is a blessing I gained from film school. Since then, we h
