Are you abusing social media or is social media abusing you?

I believe sometimes, we as people, abuse social media and I can be honest and say that I have abused social media myself. As soon as I would wake up, I would grab my phone and check Facebook or Instagram before even saying my prayers and I had to make a change and that IContinueContinue reading “Are you abusing social media or is social media abusing you?”

The beauty of Melanin

I’ve never been amazed by a black person’s beauty. I mean I’ve been black all my life and all I knew was that we had all different shades that would range from the lightest shades of tan and darkest shade of leather.

Are you more accepting or have more tolerance?

Just recently I had a much needed conversation on relationships and what to accept and not to accept. In that conversation I’ve noticed I’m more indirect vs being direct when it comes to expressing the way I feel. And I haven’t quite put my finger on the reason why. Wether it’s due to the personContinueContinue reading “Are you more accepting or have more tolerance?”

Have any financial goals for the summer? For some of us, summertime means vacationing, long days at the beach, and lounging at the pool. For some, there’s summer school, college, and driving tests. And then there’s the workers, volunteers, and savers. I’m a little bit of everything. We all don’t have the luxury of relaxingContinueContinue reading “Summer fund or summer fun?”

May- Mental Health Awareness Month

Happy 1st of May. Unfortunately, the importance of mental health wasn’t prioritized as a child and neither did I decide to make it a priority until maybe somewhere around mid-year 2017. I laughed when describing painful or traumatizing memories from my childhood and then from my teens until adulthood, just because that’s the only wayContinueContinue reading “May- Mental Health Awareness Month”
