Gassing Y'all Up

Let me be that motivational voice in your head for a second. It's Monday, it's gloomy outside, the weekend is over, you got 48039722 things to do..but I want you to forget about all those problems and GO GET SHIT DONE! Life is too damn short to dwell on the small stuff and forget to LIVE. Take a moment this week to go out and do whatever it is that makes your soul dance. Put on some bomb ass music and let that shit move you. Move your hips to the beat and sing along all loud and obnoxious. Feel it!!!! Call the people that bring a smile to your face, tell them how dope they are. All the unnecessary bullshit is for the birds. Make unforgettable memories. Relive those epic moments that still make you catch your breath.

Next time you stress over something unimportant, stop yourself! What are you worried about? You are ALIVE aren't you? If you are healthy and able and have basic necessities, please take a moment of reflection to be GRATEFUL. All those crazy ass dreams you have are right there at the tip of your fingers- leap out, go on and make them your reality! It is easier said than done, but every moment you have an opportunity to convince your thoughts to go in a positive direction. If you can make that happen, you WILL make your dreams a reality..or at least you will be living a happier life.

You have every ounce of potential you need to be successful and most importantly to be fulfilled. You are loved and supported by your crew. Keep loving your crew, they are the ones who will be there through thick and thin. And can we all stop for a second and recognize our privileges? Even if you are having a shit show day, I guarantee there is something, even if it is minuscule, that you can be thankful for. We have ALL had our bad days. If you are still standing, that means you made it through and I bet you are stronger because of it. 

No one can hold you back, other than your damn self. Never EVER settle for less than you want and deserve. In fact, expand your wants to encompass the impossible and make that shit possible. Keep pushing until you are living as your best self. Once you actualize your goals, give yourself some self-love - you motherfuxkin made it! And once you soak up that top of the world feeling, get back on your grind and set your eyes on the next best version of you! 

(Inspired by French Montana ft. Swae Lee "Unforgettable" and how the music made me feel! Also, I had to Urban Dictionary the phrase "gassing up" and if you don't know it, I encourage you to Google it & then go gass your favorite person up.)

I am Enough.

I claim my own power and I purposefully create my own reality. Endless possibilities are within my reach.  I give and receive all the love that I possibly can.  In this moment, I feel peace.  I evolve and increase my threshold for positivity. Change is a welcome and necessary aspect of my life. I live authentically and let my inner-self shine. Gratitude is my best attitude. I will not dwell on things I cannot control. Every element I need to feel energized surrounds me. I deserve compassion and support. No hardship is too great for me to overcome. I possess everything I need to be fulfilled.  Today, and everyday, the universe responds to my intentions.  I am enough.

Nothing But Bhangra

Once upon a time there was a blossoming young brown girl who loved to dance. By no means was this girl a dancing queen. She was barely able to coordinate her lanky arms and legs to a decent rhythm. But dancing melted away the awkward adolescent years. Dancing was a way to connect to her roots. It was a way for her to make friends. The young girl loved this hobby, it fulfilled her like the music filling her ears. All through out childhood she had memories of going round and round in a circle of women clapping and twirling and singing along in exuberance. She couldn't remember the exact moment she first stepped into the dance circle, it could have been during a family wedding or at her home when the aunties turned the boom box on after dinner. What a glorious moment it must have been! The moment a young girl learned to become one with her body and culture. Memories of dance practice in a school ground, giggling with a group of nervous girls getting ready to perform; getting yelle

Fire-breathing Dragon

After detaching myself from social media and taking the first tiny baby steps towards understanding myself, I have come to a few rudimentary AHA! realizations. Right now I am focusing on a part of my authentic self that comes alive as a fire-breathing dragon. When this part of my personality is awake and in charge, every living being is afraid to approach me because I have smoke coming out of my nostrils and I WILL torch anyone to smithereens. I don't just blast people with my blazing fire, I then eat them and make it known that I will not go down without a full fledged fight. This version of myself is the hardest to control and I become an untamable beast. Lets call dragon Gags what she is - a scary bitch! My journey in the realm of adulting means taming my inner bitchy beast. If I am honest, I doubt I will ever be able to fully tame her, but I can watch out for her and train her to at least not burn people to crisp. I make my beast sound badass but the truth is, it's a beas
