Last week was a rather interesting week of reflection for me. I learned some truths about myself, which caused me to recognize that a reset was necessary in order for me to go to the next level in my life; spiritually, mentally, professionally, and physically (still working on that part, pray for me lol). Have you ever come to the realization that more was necessary for you to receive your more?

Some people try to portray as though they are perfect and do all things right, but I’m not going to stress myself out trying to do that; it’s not even possible. There are times when I make commitments to myself and don’t follow through with them. One example is my writing. I know this is super simple, but hear me out. For me writing is therapeutic,…
