    Pieces of Me

    I was having some quiet time in my room (I chuckle at this because most kids hate being sent to their room, LOL, how ironic). I looked up at pictures I have on the top of my tv stand, pictures of my cousin, who recently got married, a picture of my dad (today makes a year since he left us), a family picture, a picture of my aunt (it’s been a little more than a year since she left us), a Mary Kay prize I received, and a picture of Paris that my friend gave me from her trip. As I looked at each of these items, I thought, these…

    20/20 Vision in 2021

    Happy New Year! I hope your year has kept you well. It’s been a few weeks since I last posted, how was your Christmas? New Year? Did you make a vision board or naw? This blog post is the second part of my last blog post about moving forward with the 2020 vision. In that post, I shared the story of the man that was blind from birth and how Jesus healed him (if you missed that post, go back and check it out). As you continue reading the story you find that there were many that didn’t believe in his healing. The Pharisees questioned the blind man and his…
