*Quarantine Birthday*

This year was a once in a lifetime birthday party. Never in a million years would I have thought I would have a quarantine birthday. However, now that I reflex on it I am truly blessed. Not only to see another year but to have this rare memory. Trust me this era will be written about in history books. And if I ever have kids I will have some stories for days to tell them. Welp, I plan to enjoy this last year of my early 30s. Cheers to life and my beautiful unique self! I ordered tacos from a local Mexican restaurant paired with chips and dip. My drink of choice was margaritas. I love my gifts...I even got some toilet tissue🤣. Times are hard out here with this quarantine. My mom got me a strawberry crunch cake! It was so yummy. I wouldn’t trade this celebration for the world.

~Is God Real?~

This is the question we often are asked, or even ask ourselves. It's the question I asked myself this morning on my way to work. 

I was driving and happened to slide on black ice and spun in the opposite direction of traffic. I ended up right in front of a school bus. Not to mention my car is a very small neon. I was on a busy street in heavy morning traffic. I seen three accidents on my way to work. However, while spinning I had no fear. I knew God had my back. Is was that voice that told me to put on my seat belt this morning, when I was rushing. The Lord protected me, I am safe. I know I have too much more life to live and so much more love to give.

Thank You!

~Meeting My Favorite Motivational Speaker Les Brown~

I got to meet my favorite Motivational Speaker on Thursday with my cousin in pic too. It was sad I had to meet him at a funeral though. You can tell by his smile...that he just has a joyful heart all the time. It just shows my dream are real...what you attract to life will come! You can believe that! I didn't know I would meet him that day. Some how God made our paths cross...Thanks Les Brown for being such a friendly spirited person. You definitely made my day on Thursday God Bless!!!

~ The Power of a Dollar~



Have you ever wonder how powerful one dollar is? I mean one dollar isn't nothing but 100 pennies, it's not worth that much right? Nope, that is totally wrong, and today I am going to share with you how powerful one dollar is.

Take one dollar out of your wallet and hold it in your hands. Now think about how many people had this same dollar too. Imagine how people used this dollar...it could have been used for transportation, food, water, and a billion other things. Now look at the same dollar bill and think of how many people gave this very dollar away to someone else. I told you a dollar can mean so much more than what most people can even imagine. This dollar bill could have been someone's last dollar and now it is in your hands.

Yesterday, I was at the library trying to print out a letter and I only had a twenty dollar bill. I asked the librarian for change and she didn't have it. I thought I was about to go on a mission to get a dime to print my letter.

Surprising, I didn't have to step outside the library doors, a nice young lady in front of me asked me how much change did I need. I replied "I only need a dime to print my letter." She said "well here is a dollar keep it." I was so happy and I thanked her for that, without her help I would of been driving around trying to get change. Also, she gave me more than what I needed 90% more at that. I was so elated and than I begin to think how God works miracles through people. This year I have been giving dollars away to homeless people and random people I didn't know just because I wanted to show some gratitude. I started off doing it when I did a Gratitude Challenge with my life-coach, and I haven't stopped after the challenge.

I am so happy the world revolves around in a full circle. Believe me what you give to the universe, it will give right back to you. So that same dollar you have in your hand, I want you to give it away to a stranger. That's right someone you do not know and see how fast that dollar comes back to you. Money never stay in one spot it moves; it is currency and a current means "passing from one to another."

It is your turn to pass the dollar. When you do it leave me a comment and tell me how it goes :)
