Daily Deep Dose

When the tides are high and the stakes seem impossible to exceed, it is only through your faith that you will rise and succeed. There is so much more to life than what you see. Look inside and find the true meaning of existence - a place that needs no sense of space and time and has no limitation or bodily need. Religion was never meant to surpass the power given to you and me. We are the belief.

My Mom is my hero - she is the woman I most admire. She remains the foundation of strength & goodness in my life. I'm thankful to be blessed with such a positive role model - someone who from childhood taught me morals & wrong from right. The attributes I admire most about my Mom is her compassion, her indestructible spirit & commitment to her faith. She always manages to trek on, despite any odds. I'm infinitely blessed to be hers.

Quantifiable is not always measurable in visible, but in heart. Heart is where you find the courage to try and let go of what was not yours in the first place. What you have learned be grateful for - only strive to allow yourself to love more.

Daily Deep Dose

I realized today, what a beautiful day it was to stop trying to make everything last once the moments had past. Instead of being afraid of fading memories, feelings and sensations of familiarity, I shed a tear and set my pride aside. With every promise that has faded away, I grow closer to knowing what my heart needs to know. I'm home to stay, yesterday has faded away.

Daily Deep Dose

Instant gratification is exactly that - glorious in the moment, but not necessarily withstanding of the seasons of change. I have learned that now is the time for me to work towards building a future that I can be proud of, bright of my accomplishments & visions. At times I feel anxious that I'm not heading the right way, but I try my best to breathe the stress away & remain faithful to the righteous way. 

PP Power Jam #17: Ray of Light

And I feel like I just got home....one of my motivational songs for many years now. This concert when they were filming, was the first time I saw Madonna ever - in Detroit...the memories. I almost turned in to a ball of energy at this concert and levitated. I can't explain how much Madonna has influenced me as a thinker and performer. Thanks M.

Daily Deep Dose

Emotional capacity involves evolution. Staying stuck in emotions that are unhealthy creates barriers in absorbing the lessons of each day. By tuning your emotions with instinct, sift through all the parts of emotions that present challenge in receiving your daily evolutions in truth. Emotional hold can involve control - release tension from the position of illusion. Breathe in and out.

Material wealth has never meant anything to me, I grew up in a modest family where we always had food to eat, but struggle was not foreign. Now a woman myself, I realize that though I don't need to be rich in pocket, I work hard everyday to make my way to a place where I don't worry about monetary stress. Though I do realize that true wealth comes from inside, when you push the world aside & focus on goals while remaining kind.

Daily Deep Dose

There is so much thoughtless squalor and selfish disposition in the world, it's hard to concentrate on what actually matters. The way to reach peace is through a state of non-resistance and non-judgment; trust that as surely as the sun will rise, a new day will meet you with vast opportunities. Let go of any outside expectations and only rely on yourself to be at your best. You don't know what you can achieve if only you believe.

Do you have a heart on?

PP Power Jam #16: Listen to your Heart

AK always knows what to say. It has been a pleasure moving into womanhood with my fellow 81' baby. Her music fills my heart - always. This song reminds me...her music saves me. 

Daily Deep Dose

Sometimes life flys by & I forget to cherish & appreciate it all. When my life's over I'll remember the moments of joy that filled my heart with purpose, the staggering moments of uncertainty that caused fear but allowed me to know what I truly stood for. Surely I'll remember those who endlessly inspired me & the cultural diversity & expression that moved me deeply. I'll celebrate the love bestowed upon me along the way & bow thankfully.

Daily Deep Dose

Life wouldn't be full of wander if everything fit perfectly. Obstacles are made to test our ability to overcome, like many in the past have done. Consider that everything happens for a reason, every single disappointment & lesson, so that we can reach higher peace with what's eternally free: the journey. Consider all in all we've survived & become better as a result of bumps in the road. Just let yourself go & grow.

Truth be Told

I realize it would be so much easier to hide under the dark cloak of illusion. Some days I wonder why it is that I care to be so honest with myself, when very few even take time to check themselves. Then I realize it is in truth I can learn to love and respect myself - not in the shadows of external intentions. Either way my heart needed to break so that I could meet myself and be born again; build on the instincts I still needed to develop in myself. My love was on the line, and no words never came through to show me the love promised to me was here to stay. Now here I am floating away from the fairy tale that was torn apart, the misery that seemed permanent disgrace - I knew there would come a time when I would realize that she let me down and wandered away like a naive fawn finding her way. It is comforting to know that I have remembered where it is from that I came, from the source that transcends any emotional prayer. Living in a fantasy without meaning is so passe. I won't turn my back away from the truth, may the truth always find its way.

Daily Deep Dose

When we think that we have it all, life often throws a curve ball. When we're alone with honesty & reflection, things come up that cause sadness and disappointment - let it go. Realize that we all deserve to smile & heal from the burdens of the day. Don't let others bring you down, don't let your emotions get in the way of making yourself great. Be better & realize how strong your love is - you're not made to break.

PP Power Jam #15: Bye Bye Baby

Perhaps this turns me on just a little bit. Oh Madge! I wouldn't mind being in this scenario if this was how a woman broke up with me!!!!

Daily Deep Dose

Words are empty when they have no intention. Say what you mean but mean what you say. Shallow words make for shallow intentions. If you allow yourself to channel the messages of revision to open your eyes more, there is so much to know/share. Don't be afraid that you know what shines eternity into breath. Don't waste brilliance. What the future ignites is the present is potential. Grow strong like a tree.

Peace of Mind

When I close my eyes I can see it all – all the potential. Now that I am awake from sleeping tender and young, I am ready to become one. One with the source - all that is everything. Every leaf, every tear, every breath, every fear. I know that I must let it all out and take back lightly, myself. All that is everything good I will make. I have never known love to spark life between my fingers before. All by itself.

Away from all that can be seen is another world, a place where the beat of your chest rotates around the seasons and smiles make sense for good reason. A world where people give without gluttony and opening yourself is thought of as noble, not weak.  An existence where attaining disposable wealth isn’t thought of as the measure of success, but rather peace is supreme. 

I don’t want to be your friend if you are mean. I don’t want to talk to you if you can’t use your words. I have moved to a place from which I don’t leave – an almighty place where I have challenged myself to let go of all that rests on my shoulder and brings my scapula to lift and be sore.

The broken hearted will mend, the broken spirited die young when they find no purpose beyond repetitive nature. Burden is better to put down then carry. Quiet mind comes through resignation of control. Let change flow.

Daily Deep Dose

I realize that in my past relationships I've played it safe by finding lovers who lack knowing their place. I've never taken on a woman who can challenge me or step to me with equal opportunity. This hasn't benefited me - in fact its only led me away from my potentiality. I'm ready to be a woman who can lead with confidence away from dependency - & if you're not ready for me, it was never meant to be. Just watch me achieve my dreams.

I Am Love

Something deep has changed within me. I no longer wish to give away all my love without keeping some for me. For many years I thought that love was only measurable through actions - but now I see that love is silent and resides within to guide towards a higher awareness of free. People may think that the transformation that I am undertaking is odd, others may find is dis-attached to the outside world - but quite honestly I have little care or concern for the opinions of others. All I know is that I will never be the same and I will never rely on salvation from another as a form of personal gain. I am stronger than I was before because now I know how to say "no, I won't let you hurt me anymore." I now know that what was good for me in the past is not always good for me in the present. I know that the lovers that have left were never truly going to stay, despite what they may have said. I now know that I am ok being single and happy, there is nothing that I must wait for to fill myself.

You see the greatest love is happening to me, just like Whitney. No one can take this away from me. I am Love.

Daily Deep Dose - HAPPY LOVE DAY!!!!

Loving yourself is the ultimate expression of security. For if you don't love yourself, you're simply giving away parts of yourself with hollow & conditional hopes. To love yourself isn't easy, there may be times battling your ego & your pride, but always remember ultimate power resides within. This Valentines Day celebrate the blessings of learning to love yourself without reservation. Inspire yourself & allow the rest to take place at its own pace.

Daily Deep Dose

Create to enlighten beauty in the world. Never allow yourself to stay without creativity for long, for it's through your making that the world reflects vision. You were born to bring something unique into existence, express yourself & release the gifts held with little hesitation. Renew the thrill of the chase by seeing what bad habits you can break next.

Daily Deep Dose

Look inside your heart - what do you see? Life is not complicated if you just let it be. Open yourself up, for the universe is within you; once you accept this you'll realize the power of truth. Free you, know that anything is possible if you manifest it into existence. Forget pain, forget regrets, forget the past. This moment is yours to make.

I didn't think I could be stronger, but I am. I didn't believe I could love more, but I do. I didn't think that I could learn to be patient, but I'm learning to be. I realize that people shouldn't limit themselves to what they think they are. Instead, the power of growth comes from transformation - with being gentle with yourself and bending deeper into accepting the unknown road. Om shanti.

Daily Deep Dose

At time I feel broken, battered and bruised - but something in me assures to hold on and hope that goodness is in-store. Not every decision I have been has been wise, nor mature - but now I realize how I did not push myself  to grow beyond comfort and the physical realm. My light is too bright to dim, my love is too strong to disrespect. I assure that I will only bounce back and inspire more. I won`t break, I have too much love to make.

PP Power Jam #14: The Greatest Love of All

``Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all.`` I miss Whitney`s presence all the time - thank you for your gift, thank you for the beauty. You will will never be forgotten, your voice lives on.

Daily Deep Dose

If I carry all the mistakes I made yesterday into today, I will never learn to walk away from the emotions that have tormented my soul astray. I imagine that those I had to leave behind would wish me brave and support me to continue on my way. I'm not sure what lays ahead, but I'm sure that I must do it with more dependence in myself. I am no longer afraid of silence, instead it's there I find a better place to better reveal my new self.

Daily Deep Dose

Two of my greatest blessings are my feline daughters. What they have taught me is that love really can be unconditional - we've been through it all. We are a little family & they always give me a reason to try harder & keep myself together. My heart only grows with love for them each day. Each night they both sleep with me & together we rise. They really are my best friends (o:

"When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it...always." ~Mahatma Gandhi

PP Power Jam #12 & #13 - Unpretty & Dear Lie

My favourite group. Tboz's poetry from Thoughts was behind the words for Unpretty and Dear Lie. These song says what many quietly feel and suffer with.

Daily Deep Dose

I've learned that in life you cannot expect to know the entire way. Life would not be yours to create if you knew every step of the way. What matters is that you put one foot in front of the other with open faith each day. If my life had not fallen apart with a broken heart, I wouldn't have come back into the sun; my heart beating in time with rejuvenation that I will always be dedicated to serve my heart, even if I may fall apart. I'll only love stronger.

Daily Deep Dose

Sweat it all out - let it go. All the things and people you are letting infect you from being your very best. If you don't perceive yourself as happy, you will not be happy. If you don't perceive yourself as successful, you will not be successful. All is fair when you realize that you're on a journey beyond control: the physical realm. Connect with what drives you to give back in goodness and kindness in spirit. Preach love, change the world.

Daily Deep Dose

I'm no longer willing to settle for anything less then what I offer. If you want to taste me, you better have your ambition and drive in order. If you want come into my mind, you need to show me that you can take charge of your life. If you want my time, you'd better treat me right. Some may think my standards are too high, but I've gone through enough compromise to know what's not right.

Daily Deep Dose

I wouldn't change anything that has happened to me if in could. With awake perceptions, inhalations and gravitations, today I groove towards a deeper love based on believing I'm beautiful and deserve love without limitation. I look at myself naked in the mirror and I appreciate myself and all my beautiful imperfections. I will be the woman I admire without reservation - this I promise myself.

Daily Deep Dose

I ask for forgiveness for not being more mature in the past - for having too much reliance on others to make me feel satisfied. Some moment I still feel deflated. Healing has taken its toll on my body and soul. I pray that when the trauma of yesterday fades away & the thought of you melts away, I will be a better woman for putting down this pain. One day.
