Needle & Thread

There’s something deep inside me that knows peace. Peace is my safe haven. Projects are my peace, it gives me time to think. With my creative juices flowing there are many projects to do that keeps me tranquil.

When did I start threading ? Just recently. This inner peace project came about on the whim. I’ve always done projects of peace and projects of positivity because my life is always going through a storm. Everyday isn’t sunny in the real world but in my world I get to create my sunshine ☀️.

My projects bring me inner peace because they are made with love 💗

What inspires me and brings me peace is doing things I love.

Ever since a young child I was inspired by art. I thought a piece of creativity and originality was the dopest thing.

Growing up I wanted to be original.

Growing up I wanted to be different.

So many burning rages that run through my body like a firework.

So many stages of self care and self healing.

Growing up I started to want more than to be different. but healthy as well.

Healthy mind and body.

I take care of my mind and body by eating right.

There was always conflicts of interest in my household. Meaning whatever I wanted to do ..I couldn’t. Not fair but life isn’t fair right, unless you take control. Take control of your life not tomorrow not next week but in the present moment.

I found my present moment to be part of my inner peace. In the present moment of needle and thread ...

Needle and thread 🪡 takes the stage. Setting the mood and being comfortable while making goods gives me inner peace. I take my darling old time and masquerade around my sewing activity that brings me peace.

Not only am I calm after so many years of self discipline but always calm after the storm.

Everyday feels like a rush of life. Between work, school, outside activities, kids, and etc.

Running around from this place to that place. Grabbing this and grabbing that just to feel complete when in reality we are depleting ourselves.

Our lives are to be lived in luxury and I also talk about the luxury of living and bossing up in previous vocal stories. Please feel free to give yourself a boost of luxury and living by checking out my story “The Luxury of Bossing Up.”

There comes a time when we need a break and something to calm that storm. For me it’s my needle and thread and my son of course.

Fine focus and calm threading. The needle is the pen. The needle is important and builds a connection with you. It’s definitely sensational lol. There may be pokes and bleeding 🩸 but the aftermath and the sense of innner peace and calm and tranquility and the finish.

The finish . How does it feel to finish?

It feels refreshing , liberating, and serene.

The end counts but the storm is where the prize is formed.

Even though in the midst of starting to find my peace and inner tranquility I found out I was pregnant 🤰💙 . How ecstatic 🤩. This only added juices to my creativity. Digging deep inside and finding the willpower to start something magnificent.

Turning your creative project into income 🤑. Even though I do these things to bring me peace and tranquility , we all need a way to survive. And the 9 to 5 is overrated in this new millennium. So what’s not best to do than do something you love on top of something that brings you inner peace.

Needle and threading is my something that helps me slow down and not rush. Threading has been my calm in the midst of everyday life. Threading has been my inner peace magnet. Threading has been with me since young age. Threading is my go to. Threading places me in the present moment and can actually enjoy the time being spent making something good. Needles are my best friend although they may cause pain there is sun after the rain.

- The calm after the storm.

I started needle and thread when I was just 28yrs old as I am currently. It’s always been embedded in my mind to do it. I had my son when I was 27yrs old as told in previous vocal stories .. please feel free to check them out as well :)

What is a storm .. storms can be bad or not so bad. Storms can help us determine our strengths and weaknesses. Storms come and go. Something can be destroyed or damaged. The thing is to take it as it is and make something new like with needling.

My son has been thrown into my inner peace of activities because of him I was inspired and motivated to do these things. I’ve never in a million years thought I would be doing what I said as I was younger. It’s a mind blower.

It’s all part of my creative project to be at an inner calm while doing activities that bring me that.

Nurturing my son and making sure me and his father is there also brings me inner peace.

The fight to get him back has been won! 💙

We have been battling custody with my mother to get him back. How sad and unfortunate as I first looked at it. But then, I changed my mind ... I changed my mind and decided to stay inspired as I was because my son would eventually be back.

And it’s after the storm now. Calm & tranquility is in place indefinitely.

Just being able to experience an activity that brings me inner peace is definitely worth the talk.

Not so many people have inner peace. Inner peace is interrupted in our everyday life because we deal with things by not dealing with them.

It’s good to find ways to express ourselves. We need outlets to come across inner peace.

I needed therapy for awhile but that just wasn’t enough. I needed something more I needed to do more in my inner self than I ever did before.

I needed to reach and attain the things I sought to do as a child to feel fulfilled and an inner peace that no one could match. This life is not about being competition with no one but myself. I am my only competitor. We fight to be alike in so many ways and I just want to be different.

Having my son was nothing more than a blessing in the midst of my storm. From almost losing my mind to finding inner peace.

Once I had my son things started to change for the better. I began to become more hands on with crafting and creating inner peace for myself and my son.

As a mother, inner peace is very important. Not only for us but for our children.
