It’s been a long time since I’ve written here, but trust me I’ve been writing. A lot has gone on in the world from Covid -19 ravishing through the world holding no regards to race, status, bank account or anything else that matters to any of us. While dealing with that, we are also trying to combat the everyday worries of life, family for some and whether or not we would have a job to sustain us. Even though this has calmed down for some, it still holds true for millions of people. 

Throughout this turmoil, I lost my job and car so I am not just speaking from what I have seen. I’m speaking from what I experienced. 

But for me, I put a different spin on it. I felt as if this was my chance to go ahead and do a hard reset. I had been praying and struggling and praying and struggling about this transition. Yes, I know that these two words don’t blend in the same sentence. But I’m just being real. 

I believed in my heart that it was finally time to leave my hometown and relocate. What better time than now while the whole world was in chaos and people were starting over all around us. Now was the time for me. As hard as it was to leave my son behind, I had to leave. Once the peace came over me that he would be okay. I had additional confirmation to pack up my things. I started fresh on January 16, 2021 with my clothes and a few things in a city over 600 miles away. If I told you I hadn’t missed my family I would be lying. I have even cried not understanding why God chose this place to plant me. It’s okay to not understand His plans. He will not reveal everything to us because we would somehow sabotage it. We always do. Trying to fix and maneuver things we have no business even touching. Lol  

I am here. I am in the place that God designed for me. I am in the place that will propel me in my purpose. I am in the place where life long connections will be made. I am in the place where new family will be connected. Not to replace my family at home but only to add to it. 

This is a journey and I’m buckling in for the ride.   

I will keep you posted and I promise I will be keeping in touch with you more. 

What ever it is you are contemplating doing. Take it up In prayer. Even when it makes no sense trust and believe! 

Love y’all 🌺🌸🌻
