Unbridled EmotionsDeafening SilenceThe noise within my head that can carry me away in deep contemplative and calming thought, and other times make me question my existence, question myself and even doubt. Then I regain my control by totally letting go, and once again am calm and refocused.

Unbridled EmotionsDo You MindThe thoughts that flow like a never ending waterfall, are what drives you to envision infinite possibilities to challenge your body to achieve incredible things in your life. Believe and see its manifestation as your ideas take you to every place that you couldn't even have imagined; and simply by the power of the mind as it takes charge of the body and reaches for the sky.

Dear Future Hubby PodcastDear Future Hubby Podcast - Do You Have A Strongwilled Mind?As with Everything else, people will have a difference of opinion when it comes to Their definition of what it means to have a Strongwilled Mind! And that is completely okay with me. Trust me, I am not here to “change your mind”. I am merely here to express My Thoughts as best as I can, for as long as GOD will allow me. Some may agree, some may agree to disagree. Whichever way you choose, I simply appreciate the opportunity to speak my truth in love. I hope this Episode encourages Someone! Enjoy!

Unbridled EmotionsTraces of our journey'sThe dusk as the sun sinks gently towards the earth shining brightly as it disappears, but leaving behind the beauty of the day. We too are just like that as we connect with others and leave a little piece of ourselves for others to see. As that same sun rises, we also move forward and continue to rise up reaching out for the destiny in our souls that we share with others.

Unbridled EmotionsDoors, Walls and other obstaclesA door can be locked and keep us from moving to our next destination. Also that same door can be a pathway to a brand new life currently just beyond our reach. The same goes for a wall, a mountain, a river or a valley, any obstacle is either our doom or our very next challenge; you decide.
