What's the first impression you want to give people?

A calm and happy first impression
Is what I strive to give
A warm and welcoming expression
Is how I love to live
I offer a gentle smile
And a soothing voice to match
With me, you’ll feel at ease awhile
And your worries will detach
My presence brings a peaceful air
And my words are soft and kind
I’m here to show you that I care
And to ease your troubled mind
So come and sit with me for a while
And let my calmness be your guide
Together, we’ll find a happy smile
And a sense of peace inside

Blessings and Love!

What is your favorite hobby or pastime?
View all responses

My favorite hobbies are writing, of course, dancing and cooking, watching documentaries, and playing video games.

I am an author, so writing is something I do all the time. I love music and dancing and could put music on and dance away for hours. I am also a foodie and love to cook, especially baking, it is relaxing for me. I love watching documentaries on all types of subjects, mainly animal docs. Lastly, I like to play video games. My favorite games to play are Jeopardy, Tetris, Madden, and Wheel of Fortune. These are things I love to do especially if I am really bored and feel there is absolutely nothing else to do. When I am playing video games, I would have my music going and tuning everything out. I just like to vibe!

What is your hobby/hobbies?

Where Would You Go?

If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go?
View all responses

If I won two tickets to go anywhere, I would want to go to Jamaica or Paris.

I have wanted to go to those places since I was a kid. I think visiting them would be so much fun and an educational experience. It would be fabulous to learn about culture, people, food, music, and different traditions. There are also some places in Africa!

It would be hard to choose who to go with. I only have two tickets, but those are my answers.

Track of time

Which activities make you lose track of time?
View all responses

There are a few activities that I partake in that make me lose track of time. One thing that makes me lose track of things the most is writing. I can write for hours in my own little world and be happy. The next would be reading, especially if it is a really good book. I am so into it and lose track that way. Time spent with my kids or family just talking, cooking, and game nights are fun; I definitely lose track of time. The last thing I would say is that me playing my video games. I will be all into it, not worrying about anything.

I love having those activities that I can get lost in. Sometimes, this is a good thing; sometimes, it’s not when other things need to be done.

I like to be busy often, so I don’t mind it.

Blessings and Love!

Thank you for reading.

Have you ever had surgery? What for?
View all responses

Yes, I have had a few surgeries. I have had two C-Sections. I also had my gallstones removed, and there was a stone stuck in my lungs (Scary) so I had to have back-to-back surgery for that. I still have the picture of it (EWE) It happened in 2012 a week after giving birth to my daughter which was my second C-Section. So yes, I was in so much pain and had to be in recovery for weeks. That was the last time I had surgery. Thankfully.

Flaws!

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

**I had a writing prompt that I wrote and working on and wanted to share. It is about my flaws, what they are, and how I feel about them. Might be familiar with some of what you read in this blog post because I share my true feelings from time to time. Still wanted to share this it’s everything in one lol.**

The writing prompt was: Write down the flaws that make you perfect the way you are.

I feel that my flaws are Trust issues, insecurity in my writing and self-publishing, self-doubt, control, and a bad attitude most of the time.

My flaws make me perfect the way I am because I feel like the trust issues that I have to keep me alert to new people I meet, and I keep them at a distance. I have trust issues because those close to me betrayed me. Most people think of someone cheating on you and that is what brings trust issues in people. But no, for me, it is everybody; I have had friends do me wrong and betray my trust, and I also have had family betray me. And at this point, I am damn sick of it and that is why I do not trust too many people. This flaw could be a terrible thing to others but for me, I am very aware of it and honest about it. The next thing is my insecurity in getting my book done and published. I am not going to lie I fear it, maybe scared of what type of feedback I would receive. I think I take my time with it; I want it to be perfect. Also, I do not know too much about publishing or self-publishing, so I am trying to do some research before I put my work out there for the public to read. Another insecurity in my writing is the promotion and marketing of it all. I need to get out of my shell and make things happen. Another flaw is being scared to take risks. I need to get out of that and fast.

The self-doubting is a flaw. I second guess myself all the time, which is not good but something I am aware of and working on. My controlling habits, I tend to want to be in control of everything around me. Like I hate to sit back and not be a part of something that I think I should be a part of. Also controlling in a way that I want others to do as I say when I say, I get irritated if they don’t or if I feel they are moving too slow for my liking. I know, crazy, right? I am also working on that as well as a bad attitude.

These flaws make me perfect the way I am because I am fully aware of what areas I need to work on and am honest with people about my flaws. Though I feel I am perfect with these flaws, I know that some things need to change. I can admit my strengths and weaknesses and still be proud of who I am. There is no shame in that. I am a work in progress, striving to get better.

Have a better way of thinking and a better life. My flaws make me perfect the way I am. It does not mean perfect in anything but perfect for me.

Do you have flaws that make you perfect the way you are? Care to share? Thoughts?

Blessings and Love!

Thank you for reading.

**Sharing my true feelings. Write it all out. Flaws and all!!**

Power?

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

When you hear this word, what does it mean to you? Does it mean wealth and success to you? Does it mean being a bully to you? Does it mean having it all and getting it by any means? To me, I see it both ways. People use it when they are rich and have it all, and some use it to get over on people and hurt them.

There were times when I heard a few people say I have the power to do whatever I want and get what I need. They say they always get what they want, no matter what it takes. I often wonder what the hell they mean by that. Does it mean that things go away when money is involved or will they try to buy, manipulate, or blackmail you? It makes you think, without power, where would some people really be? What their career would be like without power. Money and power are most often used for evil. In my opinion, greed gets to people, and they feel invincible. I could be wrong, but I never knew of someone who used money or power for good. Again, I might be wrong, lol. just my opinions. Maybe they do to cover up their wrongdoings I do not know. Or maybe I watch too much TV and read a lot of books. I feel like any person in any career field can possess a sense of power when it comes to their job and how they go about doing it. Or having sensitive information on people

I think that me from time to time being controlling is a sense of power. I want everyone to listen to what I say and do what I say, it is not a strong sense of power but a little of it. It is with family not used to make people do what they do not want to or hurt them.

If you had power and were rich, what would you do with it? Will it be used for evil or good?

Just a thought tonight. What do you think about having too much power?

Blessings and Love!

Social Media II

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

Do you think that social media hurts or ruin relationships?

Do you think that social media has taken over some people’s lives?

I do not think so. I think it is the person who is being irresponsible on social media, not just social media itself. I have been hearing for a few years now that people blame social media for some of their relationship problems, and sometimes, I do not understand it. I feel like those types of people should just stay off it if it will help their relationship.

For the second question, I do believe that social media has taken over some people’s lives. Everything that they do goes on social media, they always feel the need to get attention, and advice from people on these apps. I also feel like some people expose themselves and their families. Getting advice, I don’t feel that is a big deal, but people who put all their business out there I feel it is too much. Some things should be kept off the internet. I do feel social media nowadays is a big deal to some people, and I know some people make their money that way, so I cannot knock what social media provides for some. I just think it is an overload. People will do anything for attention and money.

These are just my opinions. How do you feel about both questions?

Feel free to use it as a writing prompt!

Blessings and Love!
