Lift off!

Good Morning all!

Lovin life and feelin free! With the passing of R&B icon Vesta Williams it gave me a time to reflect and a heavy heart initially, but the Bible states to every thing there is a season. (ecclesiastes 3-1)
She was such a great talent and will be sorely missed. The goal for all of us should be to utilize the gifts and talents given to us for the world to enjoy and she did precisely that.

I have a few things that are paramount in my mind concerning my dreams/goals and gifts/talents. The one thing I know I will be doing until I'm in heaven is writing and making music. As far back as I can remember those have always been the two constants in my life. I played clarinet for eleven years, piano for five, and have been keeping a journal since I was ten.

I recently was given a guitar and will begin lessons soon! Although I confess I miss playing the clarinet and believe I will be picking that back up soon. Music is a universal language and I love it!

Its time for lift off! That's one of the latest songs I love by Jayz, Kanye West and Beyonce :)
Be free folks

peace&blessings

Glad to be free to be me

Life in all its splendor and multiple intricacies and layers upon layers of ..well life! The saying when one door closes another opens is true but there is no time stamp on when the other door will open. I have found through my faith and belief that what you put in the earth will return back to you rings loudly true. If you put positive affirmations and not allow negative energy to overwhelm the good will indeed outweigh the bad.

The power of one is real. One positive thought. One positive word of encouragement to someone who is having a tough day. One smile to a complete stranger to show the love of Christ as he has shown to us. Just one. Take one day at a time. Make small sure steps to a large future.

The time is now. Don't sacrifice all the great things God has planned (for those who believe) because the journey is arduously long and magnificiently tiresome at times. You will win. I will win. One step at a time.

It will happen.
So glad to be me.
Very glad to be free.
Free to be me...
