The Battle

June 27, 2017 · 4 Comments

Hello my Kings and Queens! I hope all is well with you. Okay so, one of my sisters sent a story to our family group chat. I was so moved by it's message that I decided to share it with you all today... Enjoy. _____________________________________________ An old Cherokee told his grandson: "My son, there's a battle between two wolves inside us all." One is EVIL. It's anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies, and ego." The other is GOOD. It's joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness, and truth." The boy thought about it, and … [Read more...]

The Audacity of Hope

June 13, 2017 · 10 Comments

Hello, friends! You okay...? Please let me know ?? Okay so last Friday, I participated in a lottery. One of my coworkers emailed a group of us, asking if we wanted to take part in a lottery power-ball poll. There is a power in numbers (except of course, in the US election - yup, #stillbitter) so we did it. When we all saw each other yesterday, it was obvious we didn't win. Someone who happened to be out on Friday gave a list of all the things that $2 could've bought. In fake disgust, he ended by saying "I don't know why anyone would throw $2 away?"

Keep Going

Hello everyone, Miss me? Lol. I trust you've been well. Okay so, back in February, one of my dear friends recommended I apply for a program. The organization I work for offers a leadership development program every year and she felt I'd be a great fit for it. I told her I already participated in the Project Management Boot Camp program previously so I didn't need this. The truth is, I thought about it but I was scared I didn't have what it took to be considered. She told me this was a more robust program and encouraged me to apply. So I did. I didn't tell people … [Read more...]
