This actually looks like its going to be good. Yay.


Today Is Where Your Book Begins…

…The rest is still unwritten. 

That line from Natasha Bedingfield’s “Unwritten” and lines from Robert Frost’s “The Road Less Traveled” have been circling throughout my head all day. Life is full of unexpected turns and decisions, is about taking risks, and jumping head first, all while trusting that God/faith/favor will catch your fall. 

Today marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of the next. Though filled with varying feelings, emotions, and thoughts, I have to rest content in making myself happy and never forgetting to follow my heart. Your gifts will make room for you. (Proverbs 18:16)

Here’s to a new chapter. 



Woke up with hymns in my head; especially this one 


It’s all about falling in love with yourself and sharing that love with someone who appreciates you, rather than looking for love to compensate for a self love deficit.

…And to think, there was a time when the Hip Hop/Rap category wasn’t even televised on the Grammy’s.
Then, years later, this moment happened.
Swag.
