Good Day to everyone reading this! It’s so interesting how the Universe puts things right in your face to bring home a point and get you to straighten yourself out. To all of those new to me, welcome! To all of those new to this platform, welcome! To all of those returning to purchase services or take advantage of my classes, welcome back! I am so happy to have you all here.
This is going to be the first official post of my blog. I am at a loss as to what I want to write about because there are so many topics I want to and will cover. I will say this. I am overcome with joy and pride at finally having my own platform upon which to shine my light. I am uncensored in every way. There’s no blocking or banning to contend with here as there are on other social media platforms. I am literally free to say exactly what is on my mind with respect to any subject I choose, and post the receipts (if necessary) to help paint you a proper picture. That’s an AWESOME feeling, I tell ya!
It’s extremely fitting that this first blog post be called “Hello World!” Why? Because this is my introduction into the blogosphere on my platform. This is definitely a “Hello World!” moment. It’s me welcoming you into my world. It’s also me fiercely and nerdily (if that’s a word) waving to all of you.
For the large majority of my life, I have spent it shrinking myself, clamming up and trying to disappear from the spotlight. I have done that because I have innately known since I was a child that I was meant to live out my life placing all of my talents on display for the entire world to see. That’s scary as hell. How would I navigate such a fate?
The tug-of-war that I experience everyday is smothering. “Do I want to put myself out there?” versus “Do I want to lock myself away and hide so no one can see me?” The latter, of course, is what I would prefer. However, the fate I am meant to meet requires much, much, much more than hiding myself away. Despite hating to be taken out of my comfort zone, I will be doing just what my path dictates. The two questions I posed are literally the questions I have been asking myself my entire life. However, now is the time for me to come out of the shadows and live out my birthright.
With that being said, many of the posts you will read from me will be rather revealing at times but always jolting and raw. The reason I say, “at times” is because although I will maintain a modicum of privacy, I am extremely passionate about the things I care about. When I say “passionate”, I don’t mean “droning-on-and-on” “passionate”. I mean “passionate” in that my words are very sharp and also come across very sharp. I don’t do hints. I don’t cut corners. I will keep it short and sweet. But, I won’t ever sugarcoat the truth as I see it.
As a Libra, I am a very diplomatic person. My thoughts though, will sometimes be anything but diplomatic. They will be unadulterated, straight-forward and unabashed. In discussing facts, they will presented just as they are. The way I speak and write is “passion” on steroids. It’s something that has gotten me a good stern speaking to many a day, yet the person on the other end of my words left me knowing completely where I stand. As long as that is the case, I have accomplished my goal.
You have plenty of time to get to know me outside of the work that I do on this website. All I ask is that you take the ride with me. You will learn a lot. I will do my best to not only educate but uplift. We will interact and I will also learn a lot from you all, as well.
I will ALWAYS admonish you to take care of yourself first. I live and die by the principle of the first Law of Nature. No matter what is going on in the world, you can’t properly fight against it with one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. My Momma, who dealt with a bevy of debilitating illnesses in the last years of her life used to always say, “If you’ve worked yourself into a grave, you’re no good to me or anyone else….much less yourself!” As one of her most staunch caretakers, that stuck me hard and got me to think hard about how badly I was tearing my body down working 12-hour days two jobs so young. That being said, I will always ADVOCATE you taking care of you. And no amount of “high-minded” “spiritual” “ideals” are going to change that anytime soon.
Just rock with me, though! I promise you won’t be disappointed…
From Now Until Infinity,
