G.O.S.S.I.P. Sister

In the past I would find myself questioning God (the nerve of me) about why something was happening to someone else and not me. I wanted to be the victim, of what?  I am not sure. I just wanted to complain and gripe because my life wasn’t going the way I’d plan. As I have [...]

I’ve always been very self-conscious of my skin- the color; texture; clarity; evenness and overall appearance of it.  I used to be a tomboy so I acquired a lot of “war wounds” which have left me quite a few scars to prove it.  From scrapes to burns to rough and dark elbows and knees- I [...]

“People will forget what you say. People will forget what you do. But people will never forget how you made them feel.” My professor for my graduate studies class cited that quote in his introduction speech and immediately I right-clicked and copied-pasted for my keepsake. How powerful is that quote?! It held so much depth [...]

What have you done today that shows growth in your life? What have you done today that brought you or someone happiness? Well I, for one, am just so happy for the growth taking place in my life right now! Almost everyday I surprise myself with improving in one way or another in my daily [...]

How do you know you are at your best in life? When are we ever fulfilled in life? Life is such a growing process and I am constantly trying to better myself, learn more, do more, and achieve more. I, like many other people, are afraid of failure, but when I do fall, I get [...]
