The Blogging Bae

  When all you have left is almost nothing but you continue to fight for your dream… best to at least have music along the way.   One day though I won't have to fight. Everything, all at once, will fall into place. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/40IjWVsX2R51SBWFDZYvlK?si=du1jHSJRQW6Y82Iylf9VCQ

  Hello, everyone. As you can tell, I am back. This got me thinking…Why did I take a small time out anyway?   Mostly because I needed a social media detox but also because that ONE PERSON I often speak about in this blog did a vanishing act and I felt hurt.  I'm not going to lie… the tiny break I took was a lovely reset. I got a lot of shit accomplished. I caught up on house cleaning, laundry, exercise, reading, and sleep. Just to name a few items that would otherwise be sucked away by scrolling.  That person has still chosen to disappear and well, that is on them and there is nothing I can do about it. Sure, it doesn't feel good to be ignored but I'd rather this than the alternative, and the alternative is forcing my presence on someone else. Either you want me there or you don't.  After my week off, I came to this conclusion… WHY SHOULD I CHANGE WHO I AM for someone who doesn't enjoy the person that I am anyway.  By no means am I perfect but if I had the choice to

  Dear Person in France….  Who are you? Thank you for always reading this, by the way.  I'm feeling more like myself every day.  I'm getting there.  Here is some music. Enjoy. It’s the language we all speak fluently.  Until Next Time,  X  😘🫶🏼🤷🏻‍♀️ X  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/76JsopYKeJJE14GfushzTf?si=LoI1YTNLShOnu2z5syy2LA

  Every day I wake up thinking about one person. It's been like this for the last two years… ever since they came strolling back into my life.  I wonder how they are doing. What they are up to. If they are well, healthy, and living happily…. And then that curiosity turns into sadness because I know they don't really care. I am aforethought. A blip on their radar and someone who is just there.  First off, let me apologize for the dismal posts as of late. To anyone reading this, I assure you I am okay. I have just been experiencing the loss and disappointment that comes with acceptance. I am accepting where I stand and unfortunately, I have been standing alone for a while now.  I know one day though, my thoughts will disappear. Not only for this one individual but also for everyone else who doesn't have the time. I still stand with this… people today only want to lurk. They don’t want to put effort into anything-especially a connection of any kind.  I've never been one to

  Two sentences I absolutely cannot stand because they are overused and have become an excuse….   “Let’s talk later.”  “I’m busy.”  𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐃   𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑   𝐖𝐀𝐘   𝐓𝐎   𝐓𝐄𝐋𝐋   𝐒𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐎𝐍𝐄   𝐘𝐎𝐔   𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄   𝐍𝐎   𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄   𝐅𝐎𝐑   𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐌 !!!!  𝐇𝐎𝐖   𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓   𝐅𝐎𝐑   𝐀   𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄 .  I got some tremendous news yesterday…. And I shared it immediately with one person. Who was, in fact, excited for me! I wanted to ride that wave for a little bit  sooooo  I told two other people. Neither one could be bothered. One left me in silence and the other said, “Let’s talk later.”  You know, whenever someone comes to me with incredible news, I make sure to do a victory dance for them. I make sure they feel seen, heard, and validated for whatever it is they accomplished. Sadly, it rarely gets reciprocated.  Today, I have been celebrating on my own!    Yeah, it's Wednesday and I know most people don't have the week off as I do and I know “busy” is an
