[FOOD • 4 • THOUGHT]

"Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it."

-Groucho Marx

I'm Back & Better Than Ever

I'M BACK!!!!....& BETTER THAN EVER!!!


I felt like I needed to take a brief hiatus from blogging cause I had sooooo much going on in my life! Have you ever been so overwhelmed with life that you cant even effectively put into words what you're feeling? Well that's where my life has been the last 3 weeks. Now, don't get me wrong...I was not overwhelmed in the negative sense of the word...quite the opposite, in fact, I've been sooooo overwhelmed by the amazing things that have been happening in my life! I'm finally on the path to all my dreams and I don't intend to leave it.
MY DREAMS:
#1 Becoming a performing artist (vocally & theatrically)
#2 Finishing School (International Business Management & Journalism)
#3 Moving out of New Mexico (To Cali or Atlanta)
#4 Being in the same state as my AMAZING BOYFRIEND (I love him ♥)
#5 (back up plan) Being a Sports Agent if #1 doesn't work out

Those 5 goals, last year, seemed like an unimaginably tall mountain that I could never successfully reach the top of. I stressed and cried and prayed and cried and stressed some more...I almost gave up on some of the dreams too. But Lord knows, lol of course He knows, that I am not one to EVER give up on something I truly want. God gave me the strength to hold on and keep believing...and lo and behold, in his timing, God has set into motion each and every one of the 5 dreams I listed above. I am on my way to realizing all my dreams and that I could just SCREAM with excited me every second of the day!! lol. Patience is most definitely a virtue and it is one that God is constantly perfecting in me. I welcome the days ahead!



So, this is where I'm at lovies...this is where I want to stay...this is the time of my life and I'm living it up!!! Sooo....C.H.E.E.R.S!!! Cheers to dreams...Cheers to patience...Cheers to faith...Cheers to perseverance and never giving up...& Cheers to you lovies!



I hope you all are doing well!!! I'm hear to listen and share in your triumphs too!!
Be Blessed!!! xoxo ♥

Surrender


"When words fail...Music speaks"


Today I've had a lot on my mind. This week has and will continue to be a tough one...and it's not that I dont want to share with you the reasons that are making this week a tough one, I just cant seem to find the words to say what's in my heart. Hans Christian Andersen said it better then I ever could when he penned the amazing quote "When words fail...Music speaks." I was driving home from a long but wonderful day...when Barlow Girl's "Surrender" started playing from my iPod's play list and spoke to almost all that I have been feeling for a long while. Outside of just speaking my minds place at the moment... "Surrender" is one of the most lovely and stunning songs I've ever had the pleasure of listening too. SoOo with no futher adieu...below is "Surrender" .


"Surrender"

Click Here ••> Surrender (Album Version) by BarlowGirl


My hands hold safly to my dreams
Clutching tightly not one has fallen
So many years I've shaped each one
Reflecting my heart showing who I am
Now you're asking me to show
What I'm holding oh so tightly
Can't open my hands can't let go
Does it matter?
Should I show you?
Can't you let me go?


Surrender, surrender you whisper gently
You say I will be free
I know but can't you see?
My dreams are me. My dreams are me



You say you have a plan for me
And that you want the best for my life
Told me the world had yet to see
What you can do with one
That's committed to Your calling
I know of course what I should do
That I can't hold these dreams forever
If I give them now to You
Will You take them away forever?
Or can I dream again?


Surrender, surrender you whisper gently
You say I will be free
I know but can't you see?
My dreams are me. My dreams are me



I hope this song uplifts and speaks to your soul as much as it does to me. If you find yourself wanting to hear more or know more about the Barlow Girls ••> Click here for the link to their FAN PAGE!!!!

I'm off to work on another project [MORE DETAILS COMING SOON] lol. Have a blessed night loves....xoxo ♥

The Greatest Revolution

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥


"The greatest revolution of our generation is the discovery that human beings, by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives" -William James-

I think there comes a point in all our lives when we take a step back and realize suddenly how much we've come to grow and change from the person we were so secure in being or thought we had come to be. Change is a thing that is always leading us by our hands, whether we want to follow or not. No matter your age or experience, we're always changing, for better for worse, by will or by chance, no one remains the same. Just the way that the seasons change in the appropriate time, so our lives too must change and adjust to new circumstances. I realize today how much I've changed, and how much change that will come in the future. I look back and realize how much I miss the bliss of childhood, the seemingly neverending years of high school, and my first year of college..which lead me to a new place and introduced to a whole new group of people and way of life. Change is a fast paced thing...but it leaves us with memories. I can only smile and hope that one day I'll be able to look back on my life and remember everything with sincere happiness.

"Only the wisest and stupidest of men never change."
— Confucius


"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature:
old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)



Just a little food for thought lovies.....I hope you have a blessed night!! Take care!!
xoxo
