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?

Memories of my past consume me whole A life once lived is now a distant goal The path I chose now seems unclear And all I have left are memories to revere Days gone by, but etched in my mind The laughter, the tears, all intertwined I wish I could go back and relive it all But time moves forward. It doesn’t stall My path ahead may be uncertain But the memories of my past they remain certain, For they remind me of who I used to be And the person I can still strive to see I hold on to my memories with care For they are a reminder that I was once there And as I move forward, I take them along To guide me and inspire me to be strong
All day, every day, no matter the mood, the season, the pains, and the struggles, I still love being me—my flaws and all. I love standing up for myself and my standards. In this world, being yourself is a positive. Who wants to be a copy version of someone else? Be original, Be you, Be great!
Continue to be your beautiful self. I am just BEING ME!
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?
