Loving ME!

By -

I used to worry about how open I was, always concerned about what others would think of me, living my life so free and choosing how I want to be. Will I get hurt? Will I lose your love?, just for being me? The questions would flow on and on and I would close my flower and not let anyone in. The sun couldn’t shine on me and therefore I couldn’t shine on you. So, in courage, love, light, joy, bliss, peace, and sensually I open my flower and my heart…to you ~

I’m enjoying my life and can truly say that I am happy with who I am and who I am becoming. My life is a never ending, beautiful song that I absolutely love to sing; sing from my heart with all that I have in me. I am free to share her with you and I hope you’re enjoying my song. I have met so many beautiful souls as of late who understand the path that I am on. They also understand my journey and I am grateful for the experience we shall have together! Life is all about finding more and more ways to loving and accepting yourself for who you are and loving others for who they are and who they are becoming as well! Evolve!!

Please enjoy this beautiful song by, Ayo ~ Life Is Real. Every word she sings describes what I just said. I thank one of my new friends on Facebook for sharing her with me. I say YES to this song and the beautiful spirit that flows through it!!

    Thanks for sharing,Lisa! I love this song! This is very personal for me, b/c I too am an open flower and I do get the "Girl, you can't be like that w/ everybody" speech over and over. I'm happy with who/how I am, and I am cautious, but not so much that I shut out all the rays of sunshine just waiting to touch my soul. You ROCK!

    Well written my sistah! I feel every word! The great thing is when we love ourselves and accept ourselves for who we are supposed to be, it doesn't matter what others think. We are living the fullest extent of our being and that all that matters. Just be you!

    Girrrrl, as women get older, we begin to care less and give a kahoots about what anyone says or thinks about us. In my mid 40s, I have a confidence about being ME that I have never experienced before. Lovin it!

My Monday Morning Started At 11:00PM...Last Night!

We had to take little j. to the Doctor this morning because last night he didn't sleep good and neither did we. He kept crying and crying and wouldn't stop. We were completely thrown because he had such a good day. Could it be: 1. He's teething and it's bothering him? Yes, but a little baby Orajel and infants Tylenol should have done the trick. It didn't. 2. I ate something that didn't agree with him? Of course we couldn't come up with anything. 3. He was just so tired from everything we did yesterday and it was hard for him to fall asleep? Maybe. 4. He got bit by a bug and we didn't know? We checked all over, no bites. We even checked to see if there was a piece of hair wrapped around his little fingers and toes. None! 5. Because he's teething he could have an ear infection? Yes very possible but he didn't show the usual signs: fever, pulling at his ears (that looked like it was out of the norm for him because it's something he does often...

Inspired To Write...

The other day a friend of mine asked me, where have you been? She then proceeded to say, it's like you fell off the face of the earth. I laughed and said, "no, I've actually fallen onto the face of the earth". Girl, thanks for that little laugh, I appreciated the moment :) I've fallen onto the face of the earth and bumped right into my family, friends (old and new), business partners, business meetings, social gatherings, moms meetings, and so many activities for the kids, life has been busy. My natural journey has opened so many doors, talk about beautiful women. Sistah's who have inspired me to keep going and stay focused on the end result rather than the transitioning stage. These days I mostly wear my hair in a ponytail-bun. I don't have time to get all fancy, but when I can I'll do a two-strand twist style and use my latest product discovery, Oyin Handmade . They are very reasonable and the products smell so good. If it's one thing I...
