Are we falling love with the promise of love?

 Do you think in today's society we are more prone to fall in love with the promise of love rather than look for the real thing? I have seen so many people say they are in love and that they love someone but when that relationship or marriage is tested it falls apart. So, can you really say that you loved that person or where you just in love with the promise of love you gave one another. Love is an emotion that runs deeper than you know when it is genuine there is nothing that can  sway that love when it's unconditional . I found that today we love based on works or benefits  nothing more so when those things are challenged or maybe even vanish we no longer love the one we claimed had our heart. We have become parasites always feeding off of or leeching off our partners never realizing the damage we have caused by loving for resources or pretending to love someone to fill the void of loneliness. Do you know how many times I could have been in committed relationship with men if I was willing to fall in love with the promise of love. I would rather be single than to be with someone day in and day out claiming to love them and my heart wasn't really in it.

                                               Learning to invest in yourself this Fall! In my 46 years of life, I was always the type to want to make sure everyone was good even at my own expense it wasn't until recently I learned a valuable lesson and it opened my eyes to the fact you can always show up for others and those same people won't show up for you. So, this Fall let people, places, and things that don't mean you any good go and live your best life! People will demand and pull from you and never give back. They will see the toll it's taking on you and will talk about you, tear you down to others all the while watching you and praying for your downfall so they can say I knew she or he couldn't do it or I told you she or he wouldn't get out of this situation. But I am here to tell you to invest in your future, business, dreams, and goals. A...

New Year New You the Irony of it all!

Image
 In light of the changing year, we all come to the conclusion that we must change different aspects of our lives or better ourselves in some way whether it be weight loss, decluttering our homes, changing careers, or searching for love we all dedicate ourselves to the process of growth and newness. I always wonder why we must wait until a certain time of year to make purposeful changes in our lives. Life doesn't stop because it's not January 1st and it darn tooting ain't going to wait for you to show up so why do we put time frames on evolving into better versions of ourselves.  What is it about our nature that holds us back from seizing moments that can change our lives? In my case, it has always been fear I tend to stay towards things and situations where I have a defined outcome and safety in the general routine of things. I have never been one to just take a risk I must have a defined plan, execution, and outcome before I will ever invest my time and energy towards anyt...

Mother vs Father in the single world?

Image
 In light of the holidays of Mother's & Father's Day, I have seen some crazy talk among the natives and it is downright disturbing if you ask me. The question I pose is why we feel that one parental role outweighs the other, especially in the single community. Honestly, children need both parents to thrive in our society.  If we really look into it the narrative has changed a lot because I see a lot of single fathers holding it down and it may be even more challenging for them, especially in terms of getting any type of assistance if they need it due to the stigma behind grown men providing for their own households. Now, let's be clear there are a lot of fathers who do not do right by their children but still many who would risk it all for their offspring so let us celebrate those men.  Why does it have to be a competition between which parent is better or who deserves more credit? Motherhood and fatherhood are very different in comparison if you ask me what I can tea...
