What bores you?

Bores me?

I’m usually so busy reading and watching movies and playing games that I can’t be bored.

I may not enjoy what I’m watching, but I’ll usually find something else to watch or do.

I’m constantly getting distracted and lost in things that it is hard for me to get bored unless I’m at someone else house and the internet is slow. I’ll usually have a book to read or games to play.

And that’s all I have to say on nothing boring me right now such I am out of school and some subjects were less entertaining.

What is your favorite drink?

My favorite drink?

Well, mostly water, but also, since it’s cold here, I like to drink tea, and my favorite kind of tea is peppermint.

I also like hot chocolate and apple cider, hot or cold.

I no longer drink soda, but ginger ale and Sprite were my favorites.

Who are your favorite people to be around?

People to be around? It is my family and a few close friends because I can be myself completely with them, so they see the good and the ugly and still love being around me.

For they get me, and the level of being silly and funny and just raw is on a whole different level.

I mean, some people are lucky if they see a particular side of me, but all of me is quite a good time, lol.

Not change, but what I’ve realized these two years of changing.

Being more open or a better version of myself isn’t any easier.

Because the need to hesitate is still there, but I realize the need to be open and vulnerable is scary.

But I do it anyway because I feel alive. Which helps me not have the feeling that this is all I’ll amount to. After all, the lord guides me, and when I hesitate, he urges me along so I keep moving forward.

It makes me realize if I inspire just one person, I have shined my light into the world, and the more I let myself shine, the more I get to see the beauty of the world.

And receive my blessing and know the wonders I always dreamed of. This year is just a new beginning of experiencing something new, but imagine all I do this year unfolds something even better next year.

So here’s to hoping I keep embracing being more me and sharing it and confidently walking into 2024 as the new me and knowing if I keep moving, I can’t hold myself back.

Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

Right now, my favorite pair is Adidas, and I wear them to work. Heres a pic of them.

To tell you about my favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken me?

Um, my favorite pair of shoes would have to be the pair of Allen Iverson shoes I got in middle school, and I wore them to school until they got messed up.

I love the design on them, and they are very comfortable as I walk around at night, and that’s the only adventure they go on as of now.

Real and it’s coming at me full force

And I know I have to embrace it because I want it.

But resistance and fear are real, too, and they all want my attention.

I’m trying to stay afloat as I sail for my goals, and I’m trying to listen to the voice that says it’s time for you to stand up and stand out because you can’t afford to hide anymore.

For I’m needed, and even though some say to play it safe, that luxury was okay for the old me; the new me can’t stand it.

So here I am, trying to be on top, yet I feel like I’m standing behind a curtain, and they’re calling me on stage, but I can’t seem to come out.

But at the same time, I feel myself growing stronger with the need to go on that stage and say what I have to say from the heart.

But today isn’t that day, but maybe tomorrow or the next day. I know I will get up there soon enough.

“You are entitled to know that two entities occupy your body. One of these entities is motivated by and responds to the impulse of fear. The other is motivated by and responds to the impulse of faith. Will you be guided by faith, or will you allow fear to overtake you?” Napoleon Hill

I am

Standing here, not hating this place but seeing it for what it is and knowing I am blessed.

Because not everyone gets this opportunity, and even though it’s excellent, sometimes the uphill battle is too much.

I realize I could be bitter, but what is the point of that?

As I walk back into this place after being away, I see it differently, and a part of me isn’t just letting certain things side anymore.

I am here for a reason, and so are the others, so I know until I walk out that door and not come back again.

Everyone around me will do some work, and hopefully, their moods will change, too, because life is too short to be miserable.

Especially when so many others are going through it, and my path isn’t as tricky, so humbly stand here hoping for the best and realizing there is light at the end of this tunnel and as long as I believe everything will work itself out.

I never want to be entirely negative about life as it gets you nowhere fast, and the outcome is living in the darkness and missing out on the light in life that God has to offer you.

And trust me believing things will get better and being in a good mood goes a long way when life tries to trip you up.
