The Gentle Wind Repeated.

The Gentle Wind

The gentle wind grazed her shoulders-
Whispered in her ear:
Even though you didn’t see me,
I was always here.

I brought you comfort
In time of need,
I heard your painful cries,
I took the lead.

There were things beyond your control,
That you didn’t understand,
The pain carried was unnecessary,
You Surrendered. I took your hand.

The lesson learned-
Burdened hearts provides grace,
In controlling too much,
You taint fate.

The course of life changes-
Step left, land right.
It’s healing time baby,
Time to shine your light.

In order to inspire-
Time is needed to heal.
To lean toward truth,
Address what you feel.

Life’s a ride,
Don’t hang on too tight.
Open your eyes; Take down your walls
Soak in the breathtaking sights.
Slow down.
I’ll embrace you.
I’ll teach you faith.
Open your heart.
Let go.

Me, Myself and Rogue.

Hello Readers! I ask you to connect to the picture below for a few moments. Remember her? Rogue: the powerhouse from X-Men. She had the ability to absorb the memories, physical strength and remove the specialities of almost anyone she touches. Sounds pretty cool, right? Well, the storyline built around her is that she needed to avoid all physical contact until she gained full control over her power. It affected her romantic relationship with Gambit. Imagine not being able to hug or show affection because you could kill another human being? In moments of desperation, Rogue turned to Professor X to seek help to control her powers. It took a while for her to be accepted; it was the persistence and the compassion of Professor X to allow the others to give her a chance. In many ways, I truly connect with her character. This wave of nostalgia joined me when my best friend randomly said, "Omg- E! You are soooo Rogue. You internalize e...

Boom, Boom..BAM

The birds are chirping, the sun is shining and my head is pounding. I have been caught up in the momentum and the flow of life; taking more action then I am used to a sit is increasing everyday. Today, I am physically less energetic then I was yesterday, but I have the ability to push myself to do what needs to get done. What's on my mind today? Grace and acceptance. Allowing myself to just be and giving myself the space to rest and rejuvenate. I've heard it's the journey that strengthens your character. Right now, I am being tested, and I have and will only get stronger. My anxious mind was at war with my grateful heart. I had to tell it to shut the HECK up. I have good problems, the freedom of choice. I am grateful for that. I am grateful for supportive loved ones..But, choices are freakin' expensive. NYC is expensive. The reality is you have to compromise somewhere. Compromising and settling are not one in the same. It has i...

I don't know how, but I WILL someday.

I have been letting anger, frustration and doubt get the best of over the past few weeks. I'll share my discovery. What has finally worked for me was to be an observer of my thoughts. As someone who tries not to be judgmental of others, I am certainly Supreme Court Justice with herself. And so I resign.. My vision for this blog is to share my personal observations, challenges, solutions and offer an honest, impacting observations and lessons created out of love. As a loving person with others, I am learning how to cultivate that relationship with myself. The pendulum swings slower these days but as I was reminded by a friend, I have to celebrate my progress. In other words, it's the journey that is unique to me allow me to grow and forward myself. So what better time to celebrate then my birthday. On Thursday, I will be 28 years young. My vision is big and over the past year, I have...
