My own mind!

"Misery loves company by now you should know people always have advice about being together when their all alone" - Dru Hill

For anybody that really knows me, this is one of my absolute favorite lyrics from a song. I quote it alllllll the time. Its so very true. A lot of times we ask people for advice when they're not in a suitable situation to give advice. How can a single individual give me advice about making my relationship work when they aint got no man. AND yes i said aint got no. but seriously thats really crazy. a lot of times i thing back on the advice i have taken from people. many times it wasnt good advice. it was just something i wanted to hear. it was like my so called friends were just spoon feeding my ego and intellect. nobody wanted to say baby girl you wrong or thats not the right mindset to have you have to look at it another way.

Now when i look to people for advice i pray before hand. I pray that my heart and mind are open to accept that which is right no matter what is being said. i have to be able to humble myself enough to know that i will be wrong more often that right. but with the Lord on my side i will always have wisdom to gain from my experiences. i have truly learned that its okay to be wrong when im wrong and right when im right. it doesnt take away from the beautiful mind i was blessed with and the great things that are coming to me.

Embrace Me

"Chest to chest. Nose to nose. Palm to palm. We were just that close. Wrist to wrist. Toe to toe.....So how come when I reach out my finger it feels like more than distance between us." - California King Bed: Rihanna Chest to chest The simplest of friendships start with the warmness of a hug. The closest that two hearts can be and still beat. Love has a language of its own. One you can only become fluent in through a relationship with Christ. But hugs are different. The embrace of open arms that only close when you come inside caused my first accident. I smashed into you and became paralyzed from the waist down. You picked me up vowing to never let me fall. Palm to palm We never interlocked fingers. We simply held hands. Conversations overlapping future speeches. Wisdom flying at the speed of light with no cops to pull us over. Hand shakes quickly turned into high fives as the intimacy reduced to seconds. Never hungry enough to eat the entire plate. From refrigerator to trash...

He Gave

And he gave me hands. Hands to write the vision and make it plain. Hands to wipe every tear as He counted the blessings they would bring. He gave me feet. Feet to walk in the path he set before me. To run this race and endure all that comes my way. To jump over and walk through the valley of the shadow of death. He gave me a mouth. To shout the praises of a living king. To worship the glory of the holy lamb. To move the mountains to new places. To conquer the spirit of silence. He gave me life. Became who I am so I could be who he is. Laid down so I could stand firm. Cried out so I could dream big. Stepped down so I could be set free. Broke chains so I could serve him. Passed down the letter and canceled it through grace. He gave me love. Love to overcome breakthrough. To nurture bring life and survive. To rebuke loneliness inspire and grow. My King My Saviour My Redeemer who is patient and kind. Keeps no records of my wrongs wont delight in my evil ways protects trusts and...

April 23, 2011 1:13am I broke the New Year open with new dreams new aspirations and a new identity. I was on a journey to find out all I could possibly stand to know about myself. It’s been super tough. There are some things about me that I never cared to know and some things about me that I love but can’t hold on to. The journey hasn't been all bad. I’ve become freer. I begin to move away from certain people and gravitate towards others. I'm trying my best not to seclude myself in my own world. Being alone is so easy. Nobody around but me. I don't have to rejoice over the entrance and weep over the exit. But God declared in Genesis that it was not good for Man to be alone. I take it an all knowing God wouldn’t call a bad thing good or a good thing bad. He is wise like that. Last week I hit a major bump in my journey. On my way to campus I ran into somebody who was of major importance to me. We shared a moment. And just like that my morning/afternoon began to fall apart. I ...
