Look at God! He is amazing! One year ago, today, on April 26, 2021, I started this Mental Health platform. After growing tired of trying to reconcile my failed marriage, and finally accepting that my husband, who had abandoned his family and no longer had any intention on making things right, I filed for divorce.Continue reading “Happy Anniversary!”

It’s Sunday, a beautiful spring day and 71 degrees. Instead of me being in church, I have been laying around the house angry because I have yet again, allowed this man to interfere with my peace. The selfish and inconsiderate actions of he and his girlfriend …and then the justification…comparing it to what I didContinue reading “They’ll try to wear your shoes even if they don’t fit”

Another morning I’m sitting here trying to get out of bed. I’ve literally been on the side of the bed for thirty minutes trying to get up. I have a plethora of things to do before noon, but I literally cannot move. My mind has processed what needs to take place, but my body isContinue reading “Feeling is believing”

One thing that I have learned during this difficult time in my life, and that I need for everyone to comprehend is that we must trust God’s process. No matter what direction we may think our life is going in, God is the navigator of our destination. Similar to driving, we may know the directionContinue reading “Roadblocks are Gods detours to our Happily Ever After”

As the Easter Season continues, I still find it difficult to Spring into the season because of the temperature. Although the sun is bright and inviting, the cold makes me want to remain inside waiting for the temperature to rise. When I look at the calendar, it’s unbelievable that in a couple of weeks itContinue reading “Little black boy, I KNEW!”

It is April 18, 2022. At this very minute it is 44 degrees and extremely cold outside. Yesterday was Easter Sunday, and to look outside and feel the temperature, it is hard to believe that just yesterday it was 70 degrees and sunny with a light breeze. From one day to the next it’s asContinue reading “Baby it’s Cold Outside”

Another Liturgical season in under our belt. The Season of Lent came and went like a thief in the night. For some I’m sure it was a successful time of prayer, penance, fasting and a reawakening. Some others may not have been as successful. If successful, today is the first day of a new life.Continue reading “Choose…Be RISEN or continue to be DEAD”

As I type this, I have mixed emotions. I am in awe that it’s been eighteen LONG years since my youngest, my Snickerdoodle, my Noah Mekhi came into this crazy world. I am also saddened that in just a few short months, my nest will be empty. My baby boy will be leaving me toContinue reading “TO THE WORLD HE’S A MAN”

Thank you, Lendora for sharing this with me. It was absolutely beautiful. You see, for my entire life, my being an empath has caused me to struggle with this very thing. Maybe it was not having ANY of my father and not ENOUGH of my mother that caused my empathy. I don’t know…are we bornContinue reading “Do you really love me?”

As I sit here, I realize that I have literally been laying in this same spot for the last seventy-two hours. I have not left my bed other than to go to the bathroom and answer the door. I have not been in a good place in almost two weeks. My time with my grandsonContinue reading “Family Mental Health”
