Dear Vee....

Dear Vee,      This is not what I intended to drop this week, but my heart felt like I needed to drop it now before it separated from my mind. Vee, I want you to know and understand that different opportunities will always come your way. I also need you to know that these opportunities will come with options. In life, people will sometime feel like they are stuck, or their options are limited. I want you to know that no matter how bad things may seem, you will always have an opportunity to separate yourself from something that will serve you no purpose. I don't ever want you to feel like you have to deal with a situation because that is your only option. I pray that I can instill in you, that as long as your intentions are pure, then God will always provide you with the resources to keep guiding you to your true success.    Life can be sour at times, but when you have sugar and water to mix it with, you end up making something out of nothing. Always use what you...

Dear Vee,      I promised myself that I would do this, but I felt like I was losing myself after the first post. I felt myself calling and texting everyone to get their opinion on the post, not realizing that I was doing the only thing that kept me from starting the blog. I want to gain nothing but for you to better understand who your mom is and has become. Dear Vee, I promise to keep writing to you. I promise to keep using this keyboard and my fingers to let you know about me.      My love, let me tell you about the first time your great grandmother has come to see you. Having her hold you and smile at you has been the best blessing that I have ever witness. Seeing her face light up at you is something that I always prayed for. When I was a young girl Vee, your Great Grandmother, got sick from an incident that happened, and I was torn. As a little girl, I realized that I could lose the people that I loved at any moment. A few months passed, and I was fina...

     One of the many things that I love doing is writing. I used to call them poetry, but as years go by, I started becoming insecure about my writing because it did not sound like the other type of poetry. I have so many journals with different thoughts and experiences that have never been heard by anyone. One of my favorites is called "Are You Okay?". I wrote this on June 9, 2019. I am not sure what I was going through, but whatever it was, it kept a stamp on my heart.       In many of my experiences, I have felt discouraged a lot throughout my life. I had many ups and downs but sometimes refuse to keep my head down. With the writing, "Are you okay?" I remember going through certain things, and everyone would come and ask, "Are you okay?". Many times I wanted to cry in that person's arm and tell them that I was not, but not everyone will see it through your eyes. Everyone goes through their hurdles in life, and each chapter may get a little complicat...
