  • Journal Prompt: 16 Questions – Question 8

  • Journal Prompt: 16 Questions – Question 7

    Question 7: What are a few things you thought you would never get over while you were going through them? Why did they seem so insurmountable? How did you?I’ve been very blessed throughout my life with God always protecting me and a praying momma over me. Being a person of faith doesn’t mean that you do not go through anything and there were and sometimes still are times of insecurity that happened throughout growing up where I felt not good enough and worrying about everything. Some things within my control that I was doing fine in but never felt good enough. And some things that I had absolute no control…

  • Journal Prompt: 16 Questions – Question 6

    Question 6: What do you not want anybody else to know about you?This going to be a rather short post because the question implies that the answer is a well-kept secret and if I just wrote it all out here well everybody would know. According to my view counts at the moment, barely anyone is actually reading my blog at the moment (for any readers, I apologize as you are someone, and thanks for tuning in). I point this out because one may say hey no one is reading so this is a safe space…yet this is still very much the internet. But what I don’t want you to know…

  • Journal Prompt: 16 Questions – Question 5

    Question 5: Whom do you admire most, and why? There are many people that come to mind, however the person that I call my sister is one that comes to my mind in this response. She is not a blood sister but someone that has welcomed me into her life from the very beginning despite me potentially being a bothersome. She is strong, talented, hard-working, smart, resourceful, beautiful inside and out, definitely a daughter of God, and someone that I am lucky to call my mentor. She is genuine and will tell me the truth not just want I hear, but what I need to hear and she is very…

  • Journal Prompt: 16 Questions – Question 4

    Question 4: Based on your daily routines, where will you be in five years? Ten? Twenty?Wowza…this question really has me thinking….In 5 Years…Based on what I’m doing at this point in my life I believe that the next few years are definitely going to take me on a different course. In my current daily routine, I’m intentionally switching it up as I am not a fan of the same old…so within 5 years…I plan to be much more organized with what I am doing and having my priorities in line in regards to what I am focusing on.I hope to be in the midst of enjoying my career and work…

  • Journal Prompt:16 Questions – Question 3 Redo

Hopefully after this occurrence I will finally learn from my errors and trusting of this modern technology.Question 3: What would you do if you knew that nobody would judge you? In responding to question 2,…

  • Journal Prompt: 16 Questions – Question 2

    Question 2: What would you stand for if you knew that nobody would judge you? This is a powerful question and one that I am trying to understand how to answer.  It appears that this is asking what I would represent or defend without care of judgement.  Honestly, I am struggling to answer that question, I believe that I would go after a lot of things or dreams if there was no judgement.  For example, I love to sing but I’m no singer but I would do that hands down if I had no one judging me. I believe this question is asking me to go deeper and I am…

Great question (she says as she bides for time to think of her answer/response) but seriously it…
