1st Day of Thanks.... My Life and What comes along with it..

I am Thankful for Life.. It has been a up and down one from the beginning. I just glad God sees it fit to keep me here. It give me a chance to try a do right.
Everyday is a new day to do something. Everyday is another day to be something. I have went through some trials and I have been through some of the roughest days imaginable. I still came out to be somewhat ok.. LOL
I learn that LIFE is what you make of it. Even though some days I feel like I don't want to get out of bed, I still push myself.
No matter what struggle may come I am not going to let that deter me. I will one day find the peace and happiness I feel is granted to me.. Until then I am going to keep living, loving, and laughing.. Life is a given. To live is a blessing..

Starting November 1st.. 

I will be doing a Writing Challenge of 30 days of Thanks...

Just some Randoms...

I don't even have a picture to even go with what is going on in my head.. LOL
It is basically a world wind of a little bit of everything..

First off I am ready for some fun.. As I stated I've been tied up with someone since March.. Now that he is no longer a BIG issue for me.. I want to enjoy my freedom.. I no longer have to wait on him to decide on what is going to go on with us. I am not going to lie.. I do miss her dearly and I miss our talks and time together.. He wants us to slow down, so it seems we are just at a complete hault.. I aint mad at him.. It's his life.. It's his loss..I can't control what goes on in his life.. I only have control over mine and I am going to enjoy what little Life I have..

Now my job.. As you all know I was promoted back in March too.. LOL March use to be the worst months for me.. Now it looks like everything just happens in March if it is good or bad..
Well with me taking on this new job.. It seems like I am always at work.. Then it has became that I am the go to girl when there is a problem.. I kinda like being needed.. It is just on my days off, I just wish it was my day off.. LOL Then when I do get back to work it is a mess.. UGH!!.. I am thankful to have a job otherwise..

My emotional state has been all over the place.. One minute I am OH SO EVER happy. Then the next minute I feel like I can punch someone in the throat.. I have tried to be calm in certain situations but I think some people just bring the Debil out of me. Then watching the news and all these shows on the ID channel can wreck a sistah.. It is causing me to be paranoid and scared to go out the house and what not.

That pretty much is my randoms.. All the other stuff I can't tell you.. hehehe

About Last Night...

It's must be the season of reflecting.. You know the Fall is always my favorite time of the year.. It also brings a lot of emotions my way.  I become distant and isolated...

Last night I cut everything off around 6:30 I laid in bed in total darkness and silence. 

I was that way until around 12 this morning. I even cut my phone off and disconnected myself for everything on the outside world. 

I would lay there listening to my thoughts.. I would also get up and get on my knees to Pray to the Lord.  It got to the point where I felt no one but God with me. As I cried to him and poured my heart unto him. 

I believe that this is one of my things to do when Life as I know it is about to change and not change slowly but drastically. It's about to be something that is beyond my control take major hit in my life. I shouldn't sound so negative but I feel it. This is why I had to take this day and give every thought to silence. 

I do believe some of the energy is released from me. I wish that all was but as I woke this morning I still had the uneasy feeling go through my gut... I just wish things would be better.. I often wonder why do I go through so much.. Especially since I have been so go to so many people. What have I've done wrong to go through so much pain and suffering.? 

Am I really built for this? Am I just over-reacted to all that is hitting me at once?

Why am I so sensitive?  I try not to question the Lord..  He has everything already planned out.. This is what I believe. It's just becoming too much.. Just entirely too much for my spirit..

I hear that I bring so much joy and happiness to others.. Then when why does it drains so much out of me? I look for the good in the world but they world isn't good to me. 

I don't know what is to become of all this and I gather that it will make me stronger or kill me slowly..

Have a wonderful Sunday and Be Blessed!!

Viola Got a Standing O...

Ni Ni Ni!! I have loved Actress Viola Davis for quite sometime.. I think she is an Extremely talented.. After last night... HUNTY!!! I have got more respect for her as an person...
Now this show is starting to get BETTER.. I have been catching myself fall asleep during the show off and on.. Yet last night.. BAM! I woke up at the right time..

This show the plot is starting to thicken.. I am not going to spoil it as to what I think she is going to do.. Hey the show is How to get away with Murder..

Anyhoo her taking off the wig, the lashes, and the makeup... I gave her an standing ovation.. She went against the grain and made herself HUMAN!! RESPECT!

I am Glad that ABC Thursday's belong to Shonda.. It has brought forth a slew of Great Black Actors and Actresses.. WE need to see more of us.. These are talented writers, talented actresses, just GREAT TELEVISION...
