The Real Me
I've always kept things to myself, Sharing only what I chose, and to express my
thoughts and feelings, relied on lyrics and prose. There's a part of me hidden deep inside that I keep private, just for me. A small locked area in my soul I can't let anyone see. You might think you've broken down a wall, But I've replaced it with ten more. For every window you climb through, there’s always an iron door. While you'r reading this journal, keep this thought in mind. For every story and poem within, hides a memory behind. This journal is like a master key to that safeguarded place inside. That room that I've always kept secret, the place that my soul will hide. I offer you these insights, the memories yet to see, with only one confession. This is the real me
Homesick
Did homesickness fall upon me? YES I think so... I’m lying here in my bed at 3:47am, bored & watching “The Cosby Show” and all of a sudden a feeling hits me & I think to myself “Damn I miss home”,… I mean just the little things, like working & just ballin out, driving around without a license (that’s T.I. fa ya), going to the beach & wilding out with friends (O how I miss Club Med Beach) I didn’t know that the Turks & Caicos Islands Meant so much to me & that I could miss that place so much, Still, I would never give up this experience. So now I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed and perhaps inadequate. Lately I’ve been starting to
feel the effects of being separated from my family and I’m fighting through these emotions while trying to keep things together, I guess it is normal to have that helpless feeling about the things that are going on back home, I know my family and friends are feeling the same way. Missing my mommy & Brothers... But for now I will just continue to pray that the lord will bring us back together real soon and safe... Love U Guys….
Our islands are a tropical classic, a throwback in time where relaxation is unavoidable and rejuvenation ensured. Turks & Caicos I will Cherish Ur Value Always

Still unemployed, Close friends losing love ones... Life is short!
Heya... So I've been falling short on my posts as of late... I've been busy but i'm trying to get back on a regular schedule... How has everyone else been doing? I'm still on the unemployment list but I also still have faith and sooner than later something is going to work out, I just know it is. Recently, two very important people thats very very very close to me lost people that are closest and most important to them. My friend Jess lost her sister, & another friend of mind lost his mother... I can't say that I know what they are going through or how they feel (as both keep telling me they are fine... I know better) but what I do know is that I will be there for them throughout this tough ordeal... I can't imagine losing my mother or my sister, they mean so much but god doesn't put more on us than we can bear, he brought us to it and he's gonna take us through it. Life is short so don't forget to remind your love ones of how much you love them. Every minute counts.
Not much else has been going on that I'd like to share so thats all for now.
Until Next Time.

Sunday Service, New Appreciation for Life & Love.
Hey guys, another Sunday has dawned upon us and church service was amazingly good, especially the sermon & of course my favorite part of the service, Praise & Worship. My pastor talked about new beginnings and something that he mentioned got me to thinking... He said "god closes one door in order for another to open, but most times we are so busy focusing on that closed door we don't even see when a new one opens". In that very instance I shouted "amen". My cousin who accompanied me to church looked at me and replied, "seems you can relate" & she was so right, I can honestly relate, I mean here I am wondering why this happened to me or why that happened, why didn't I get hired for this job, did something go wrong in the interview? Why did he cheat on me? Was my love not enough? Was I doing something wrong in the relationship that he couldn't deal with? (you catch my drift) All the while not thinking "hey all these things happened for good reason, god is closing one door to open me up to bigger and better opportunities". Its time that I stop worrying about what happened in the past and start preparing for what is about to happen in my future, its time to stop complaining about what I don't have & start being grateful for what I do have -Friends, Family, Love-, I need to start thanking god for saving me from going to a job that I would hate, thanking him for getting me out of relationships that were built on lies NOT LOVE. I have a family who I consider my support system, who loves me unconditionally & who won't go against me, I have friends that keep me happy & smiling -I love you guys- Most importantly I have life & an amazing one at that, so as of this very moment I appreciate everything & everyone in my life & I thank you guys for taking this ride with me, I got y'all for life... Just know that!!!

Love Gives Me Hope
While browsing Twitter earlier I came across a website that I simply could not get enough of, Its called "Love Gives Me Hope". LGMH is for those who can't get enough of the "True Love" stories on Gives Me Hope. Give's me hope (GMH) is about real life people who are tweeting about things that they have witnessed that gives them hope and I want to share a few of my favorites from the site:
1. I was at the mall the other day when I saw an old couple sitting together. The man looked over at the woman and said,
"Jane, we did it. We grew old together."
The look in her eyes GMH.
2. My older sister just won her battle with cancer, but she still wears a wig.
This morning in our bathroom she was putting it on, when our 9 year old brother comes in and tells her "You are very pretty with the wig, but without it, you're the most beautiful person in the world."
The innocence and hope our brother has GMH.
The man is 92 years old and celebrated his 64th year of marriage last week. His unconditional love GMH
His kindness and LGMH.
Love that conquers all GMH
Today I stood beside her at their wedding watching her sign "I DO". GMH
Her best friend - her 18 year old neighbor - although he was not the father, stepped into the father figures shoes. They got married 2 years later.
Mom and Dad, your love for me and for each other GMH.

3. My father was diagnosed with cancer and passed away 4 years ago. Recently, I stopped by his online blog.
I found out my son had been leaving him comments, saying things like how he missed him, and how he is studying hard in school, and that he would study hard to find a cure to cancer so that people wont miss their grandfather like he does. GMH
4. Yesterday, I went to buy roses.
In front of me was the grandfather of a friend of mine, who wanted a heartshaped bouquet of red roses, just so that 'his wife would know that she is his world, and forever has his heart'. The man is 92 years old and celebrated his 64th year of marriage last week. His unconditional love GMH
5. Today, I went to pick my grandma up from the airport. There, I saw a boy waiting with a big bouquet of roses. I thought it was for his girlfriend. Later, he rushed off as a group of people came into the arrivals area.
Turns out, the bouquet was for his grandma. His kindness and LGMH.
6. My grandparents divorced and spent 30 years mad at each other.
When I was a teenager, my grandpa decided to pursue my grandma. They fell completely in love all over again. Even when the dementia set in she remembered him. Their reconciliation and abounding love was amazing. Love that conquers all GMH
7. When my sister was younger she came home from school one day and demanded I take her to the library so she could get books on sign language.
I asked why? She told me there was a new kid at school who was deaf and she wanted to befriend him. Today I stood beside her at their wedding watching her sign "I DO". GMH
8. 22 years ago, a 16 year old girl was pregnant with a baby of rape.
Understanding the circumstances, her parents told her to abort or be disowned. Her best friend - her 18 year old neighbor - although he was not the father, stepped into the father figures shoes. They got married 2 years later.
Mom and Dad, your love for me and for each other GMH.
