Warrior Daughter of God

Hey Everyone,       So, I started this post back in October of 2018 and I thought that I would add somethings to it and finally publish it for y'all to read.                                                                                                        10/14/2018        I hope that life is splendid for y'all. I have been thinking all about fitting in and standing out. This post came about because of the movie " The House with a Clock in Its Walls ". I love this movie for numerous reasons but the one reason that stands out to me, the most, is you are stronger when you stand out from the crowd.      Anyone who t...

  Hey Everyone,     WOW!! I can't believe that my last post was almost a full 2 years ago. Life has been extremely crazy for me lately, but I want to take the time to let y'all know what has been going on in my life since my last post.     Since my last post, a lot has happened, in just this year alone. Let's be real is this Jumanji game ever going to end? 😉 This year has been rough of all of us, with COVID-19 striking earlier this year, places we used to go just opening back up with new rules and restrictions. It feels like a new normal, I pray that is NOT the new normal because we don't need to live in a world full of fear, anger, hate and anxiety. These things are the things that I am trying my best to keep out of my life, but I am only human and I have my weaknesses just like everyone else. Let me start at the beginning.       So, in my last post I mentioned that I was working at a recreation center, in the Child Watch area. We...

Hey Everyone, I hope life is treating you with good times and fun memories. So, just a small update on my life, I have been working at a recreation center in the Child Watch area and I am LOVING it!!! What is it about kids that I love? Well, everything to be exact. I have found that working with kids in this job and my last job that kids know no fear or even fully understand it. So, how is it that as we get older the fears we once had as children become so massive that we can't seem to live our lives to the absolute fullest and happiest?  I remember growing up I had fears of dinosaurs (still do actually), monsters under the bed, and a fear of failure in my teen years. As I have grown, I don't fear monsters under my bed anymore because I know that they don't exist at least not in the way that they are portrayed in movies and books. Don't get me wrong monsters are real, but we all have different monsters that we struggle to fight and defeat. Other times we just si...

Hey Everybody,  I sure hope that life has been treating you well these past few months. I know that it has been a little bit since I last wrote. So, since I last wrote things have come to light for me. I thought that I had finally understood my life and thought that things were calming down, I was so wrong! As you all know I worked at a Special Ed preschool, while working there a condition called Sensory Processing Disorder was brought to my attention, because one of the students seemed to be struggling and it wasn't anything like Autism, but seemed to have similar quirks. Through this amazing student, I learned something about myself that I never knew. I have a Sensory Processing Disorder.  All of my life I haven't been able to identify or connect with numerous people in my life, family, friends and strangers. Lately I have been going back to into my memory bank and realized that little trivial things that never bothered my siblings, where HUGE problems for me and usually...

Hey Everyone,  I  hope all going is well for you. So, you are probably wondering why I entitled this post "Invisible". I will tell you, and part of my life story will be apart of this post. I lost my dream job this week, due to differences between me and others. I had one vision in mind and the others had something else in mind, so I was outnumbered. Problems arose that I could see and wanted to fix or at least ease them, because let's face it when you are working with kids anything can happen at the drop of a pin. It seems like the others didn't see what I saw, so I was the trouble maker in this instance. The thing is, is that I AM these kids. I saw myself in everyone of them, even if it was just a sliver of myself, but using the knowledge that I have gained throughout my life has greatly helped myself and others along the way. So, is it wrong of me to want to help everyone that I work with? Ease the load of my bosses? See our future be stronger, independent, an...

Hey Everyone, So, I have left retail for good and I am LOVING my job as a teacher's assistant. Getting to work with these little angels with attitudes (I mean that in a good way) is such a blessing to me. I look forward to work (most days, I do have off days ;) ).  Looking back at this past week, I have realized just how richly blessed I am. I had the unique opportunity to be the head teacher for a day this past week. Having that experience reminded me of some conversations I had with with others when I originally got this position and recent conversations with some of my family members. So, a lot of people know that I have always wanted to work with kids, forever it seems like and when this opportunity came I jumped at the chance to finally fulfill my dream of working with kids. The conversations that I have had with others is quite interesting, many have said that I would want to further my education and others have asked if I would like to become a teacher, for a career. For a...

Hey Everyone, So, I have been thinking a lot about things that are opposite, but compliment one another. The thing that came to my mind immediately were the elements: Earth, Air(wind), Fire, and Water. I will now explain my point of view on this. When people think of fire and water, they think that they don't mix and can never mix. I have thought long and hard about this, because yes water will kill the fire, but if you put the water into a container over a fire, the fire takes the icy cold water and makes it warm. When water is hot it disinfects, we take hot showers and a hot bath relaxes our sore, exhausted, tight muscles. That wouldn't happen without the heat from the fire. Fire is dangerous, but beautiful at the same time. There are so many benefits that fire has to offer us. It cleanses, heats, gives light, and it can give life new life. When a wildfire happens, there is destruction but after a time life comes back to that area, newer and stronger then ever. When it...
