I'm Back: Sorry for the Wait

Hello people.
I've been on a long hiatus and I am sorry I couldn't show more love to you. Fall semester of college was very draining physically, mentally and emotionally, and I just could not take the time to get my life in order so that I could report on the changes I've made in my life on this road to accomplishing living fiery and loving. But the good news is that the trying semester has allowed me to move further down that road.

Last semester made me step into a leadership role of my psyche' that has catapulted me to what I now call my stand still. Now when I say stand still, my life is not boring, nor does it mean I am not continuing to learn new lessons everyday, it just means the emotional ups and downs have begun to level out. I've realized that I no longer tend to stress out about certain things, that I am no longer as easily affected by negativity, and that I can find humor in almost all situations. Being on this road of getting back to me was not easy in the least, but you realize once you've gone through it that it is not as difficult as you allow yourself to believe. Just continue to have faith in yourself, flow with life, make strong and carefully thought out decisions, and continue to self reflect as you do reading that is good for the soul and possibly some meditation. And always remember that music is food for your soul so just some good music can elevate your mood. But I need you to also keep in mind that having a group of people in your life that will continually bring smiles to your face is also a great thing to have.

In these past few months I have accomplished so much on this journey, just looking back on it makes me smile. I've even gotten to a point (I think) that even though I would like to share my life with a "special someone" I am perfectly content with flying solo. For me, that's a big thing because I'm a romantic at heart, but I listened to India Arie's I am ready for love and for the first time I didn't feel that song to my core. In fact I thought, maybe I do need to learn more maturity and shrugged it off. That example, and the fact that everyday I seem to wake up with a smile on my face, go through the whole day with laughter, and fall asleep grinning as well let's me know that I am well on my way to fiery living and loving. Hopefully soon I can go in-depth on some aspects of my journey and continue to update you on new endeavors.
