I Admit!

poetry, thoughts, , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

I Admit that I am a person who is so stuck in my ways

I Admit that my attitude is not the best, I rage from time to time (SIGH)

I Admit that I can be a little hard to deal with and sometimes need reassurance that I’m still wanted and loved

I Admit that I have a tough time letting go

I Admit that it is hard to let my guard down and for me to fully be open

I Admit that I am afraid to love, to be vulnerable with someone

I Admit that it will be hard to not be in control all the time, when I feel the need to want to control everything

I Admit that I can be toxic in a way when I shut down and shut off from the world. I do not want to be bothered with anything or anybody. I really would not talk to anyone for days. I feel its toxic because I should just address shit instead of running a away and shutting down my emotions (BIG TRUTH)

I Admit that I have major trust issues and sometimes I just don’t believe what a person says sometimes

I Admit that it would be hard to let a man come into my life and take lead, also ADMIT this is something I will definitely work on

I Admit that when I do love someone, I LOVE HARD and care way too much

I Admit that when I find REAL LOVE I would be willing to make changes that I need to make for that right one

I Admit that I do not have all my shit together

I Admit that I feel like grief has taking over my life

I Admit that I get lost in my head, replaying a lot from the past

I Admit I am trying and a work in progress, I am healing and indeed working on me

I Admit that I am willing to change things that serve no good in my life

I Admit guilt to things I cannot change

I Admit I am always me

I Admit my truths here and now, BARE it ALL

My truths are here, LAID OUT

How about you???? What do you ADMIT?

Anything For The Take II

thoughts, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

I can finally say that I am done with book two of Anything For the Take. It has been a long process when I say life has been chaotic….Never mind that. I was determined and so ready to finish this book. I have been writing for the last five hours, taking a couple of breaks to focus on the task.

I am so excited! It has been two years and 5 months, and I thought this book would be finished early, but here we are. I am done with the rough draft. Next, I will finish editing the book cover, copywriting, and publishing. I am happy to say that will happen very soon. Please be on the lookout for it!!

I just want to thank those who have supported me through this process. It has not been easy. I appreciate all the love and support, especially from my kids.

Blessings and Love!

Thank you for visiting.

Memories

Good Memories on my mind!!!

Ray'Elaine's avatarJust Write

Memories

Memories the good and the bad. Mostly the good ones though, just sitting here thinking. I am thinking of the good moments and memories me, my kids, and my mom has shared. It has been 23 days since my mom has passed and it seems unreal still. I sometimes still grab my phone ready to call her. This is so hard. Now all I have left is the great memories of her. She always had a beautiful smile on her face. These memories I will hold onto forever. Thinking of the good times sometimes helps when I am down. I love all our great memories and missing you mom. My mom My lil GLO, my Gloria your memory lives on. I will always have you in my heart.

Let it all out. Hope you all are having a better night.

Thank you for reading. Love, Peace, Happiness, and Blessings

It’s a Writing Session

thoughts, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Hello all

I am in an okay mood tonight. I am back to writing, and it has been some weeks since I have. I haven’t been in the mood for anything lately. Besides that, I am writing and doing a little editing for one book and also going to be writing more poetry.

Don’t know what was going on with me, but I am grateful that tonight I am writing, and it’s going great. I am currently working on three books (Whew!) and I love it when I am in a zone and the writing comes so naturally. Yes, pen is flowing honey. Taking a break soon to make dinner for the kiddos and get them ready for school tomorrow. The rest of the night is dedicated to writing. Feel like I have been slipping, so I have to get it done.

I am also working on some new content for my blog. I’m so excited about what I have going on, but it is still a work in progress.

How is the day/night going for you? Any new goals? Writing Goals? Any plans for tonight?

Have a good night, all.

Blessings and Love

Confession II

Prompts, Short Stories, thoughts, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Daily writing prompt
What’s something most people don’t know about you?

This is a good question. Though I was uncertain about writing and sharing this, I decided to just do it. So here goes. I feel like this is also a confession post. 

So, about 17/18 years ago when I was 18 and 19 years old, I felt that I was in the wrong body. I felt like I was not myself and didn’t like that feeling at all. I then started to think about transitioning into a man. Yes, I was thinking about being a transgender male. When I was a teenager, my mom would have a fit about me wanting to shop in the boys’ section. My brothers would be mad at me for stealing their clothes, lol. Seriously, boxers, jeans, etc. 

When I say this was on my mind constantly, it was. I was always doing research about it at the time. Looking up different surgeries to have and what types of hormone pills I would have to take. I also was looking into therapy about the whole thing. Of course, the cost of it all. 

I think about this a lot now days because it was something that I strongly wanted to do. There was fear in place at the time, thinking of the negatives about the matter and what my family would think. I think about the what-ifs of the matter if I would have gone through with it. 

Sometimes, I still feel like I am in the wrong body and wish I had gone through with it. Now, I just accept that I didn’t and try to be okay with my decision, though I really am not. 

Well, that is something people do not know about me…..Confessions lol 

I had to get that off my chest. It has really been on my mind lately like crazy. Questioning myself like should I have done it or not? Well, that’s it. Have a good one! 

Of course, a little vent session with a great writing prompt. 

Do you have any regrets? What is something most people don’t know about you? Care to share? 

Blessings and Love! 

Thank you for reading. 

Confession I

Communication!

Prompts, thoughts, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Hello All,

I’m doing some writing prompts tonight and also getting other writing goals done. A writing prompt that I wanted to share is a subject I am sure people are aware of and probably talk about a lot. I just wanted to share what I think, and I also want to know what you think about the subject.

The writing prompt question is: What do you think good communication means in a relationship?

To me good communication in a relationship means having a partner who understands you and a person that you can go to to talk about anything. Especially when it comes to the relationship. Talking to each other when situations arrive and being able to talk about it and figure it out together is key. Even if you both have differences, you should be able to come together and discuss them with no problem. Do not be afraid to talk to your partner. In a relationship, a partner should be one you can always count on even for a listening ear. Being able to let each other know what you both feel and what you both want is good for a relationship. I want a partner who can feel comfortable coming to me about how they are feeling or just talk about what is on their mind. Be able to hear them and take the time to listen to them and show them you care. I would not want to be in a relationship where the other person is scared to tell me their true feelings, whether it is about the two of us or their daily struggles. I think having good communication in a relationship is very important, and it is healthy for any relationship, whether it is a parent and child relationship, a relationship between siblings, a friendship, and, of course, an intimate relationship. You should always feel comfortable going to those closest to you and communicating. I wonder how you can make the relationship work if you don’t talk about important stuff or even small situations. Talk it out. I know it can be hard depending on the person you are dealing with, but must start and try at some time,

I know you all know the saying communication is key. And yes, it is. Well, that’s my opinion on the matter. What are your thoughts?

Please feel free to share your thoughts. Also, take this writing prompt and write about it.

I am just writing tonight and, of course, thinking, and this prompt is one I wanted to talk about. Thinking and writing aloud! Communication is important in any relationship, anywhere you go or anyone you talk to. Again, these are just my thoughts. T.O.L moment!

Hope the week is going good for you, and have a good one.

Blessings and Love!

Self-Love II

thoughts, , , , , , , , , , ,

Self-love is an essential part of both mental and physical health. It involves setting boundaries, understanding your needs, and taking the time to connect with yourself to cultivate a strong relationship with yourself. Increasing your self-love can lead to greater self-confidence, more resilience, and an increase in emotional well-being.

Focus on loving and nurturing yourself by engaging in activities that bring you joy and help you feel more connected to yourself. Take the time to embrace and love who you are, both the positives and the negatives. Self-love is key to living a happier and healthier life.
