Big D*!k Energy
Urban Dictionary defines Big Dick Energy as “confidence without cockiness. It is never misplaced, and it cannot be simulated. It is the sexual equivalent of writing a check for $10k, knowing you got it in the bank account.” It was something I had always wanted; the power and confidence that comes from within. For years, I had been imitating what I thought qualified you as a person with Big Dick Energy. I had been pretending to be things that I wasn’t. It wasn’t until I stopped all that bullshit that my sister (who incidentally has the biggest dick energy of all) blessed me with the crown of Big Dick Energy. The best compliment I have ever received.

Life
What do you actually understand of the four lettered word, Life? In this blog, you might expect me to say something on the lines of life is beautiful and you need to live it to your fullest, but no I’m not going to say that life is beautiful I’m just going to put it as Life. It is beyond what any person can define.

How to Know If You're in the Midst of a Spiritual Awakening
I can't explain it too well, but I had feelings leading up to that moment—feelings as though a big change would happen soon. Almost as if a new person was going to be born, or that I would change immensely. And I did!

There Is Strength in Weakness
Imagine an ice sculpture of a swan. Each curve, each detailed carving in the wings, the beak, the arch of the neck, every aspect formed to realistic perfection. But behind the awe of it, there is fragility in beauty and this seemingly flawless masterpiece isn’t without defect. Its weakness is the very thing that makes it beautiful, the fact that it’s made of something so easily broken.

A Day in the Life
No, I am not Kermit the frog. I am just trying to make it in this world as a single female. I feel that I am faced with many inequalities and struggles. I feel like I am constantly trying to prove myself to men. No female should ever have to feel like that. I can do anything that a man can do….. And I have proven that to men time and time again. I have taken on every challenge that men have given me. And I have succeeded. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I should not HAVE to prove myself to ANYONE except for myself. But, I do love seeing the looks on men’s faces when they did not think I could do something.

Best Friend or Worst Enemy?
Do you believe in the 5-second rule? Grab a pen and paper to answer the last question, please. Before I begin, I have written a story/workbook/journal I would like to publish to help humanity in all circles of life, but I'm just awaiting funds and feedback for publishing. I would like to say many thanks in advance for giving me the opportunity of sounding my words, as this is one of many ongoing projects of mine that I am extremely passionate about; to help my children, to help my children's children, and generations to come is just one of the factors to me pursuing my passions.

You Are Good Enough
Several times in our lives, we come to a point where we question whether or not we are good enough. We face different realities that make us stop and think about who we are, the decisions we make, and the actions we take. We doubt that we’re good enough for our families, our friends, our significant others, or society. These existential crises, as we call them, are a totally normal part of maturing and growing into oneself. No matter how unsure we are of ourselves, we must always find a way to affirm ourselves that we are good enough. We are not perfect beings, but we try our best. That’s what truly matters. We create a spectrum in our minds: what’s the best, what’s the worst, and what’s an acceptable “happy medium.” Everything we do ends up on this spectrum when we compare ourselves to others. We may not always be the best, we may not always be the worst, and we find comfort is being good enough. It may sound like you’re conforming or settling when you say you are “good enough,” but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Those of us that suffer from anxiety and depression, for example, find comfort in knowing that we are good enough. Being good enough is just the right amount of motivation for us to get out of bed in the morning and be content in our everyday doings. The point is that we have intent to do good, live well, and move forward. Our intentions speak more of us than the result of our actions. We may make “bad” decisions, but consider this: actions with good intentions, even if they yield negative results, are not necessarily “bad” actions. We are taught that as long as you try your best and act with good intentions, no matter what the outcome of your actions, you are good enough. Consider that mostly everything in this life is conditional. We make mistakes, we learn from them, and that’s how we grow. Growth is one aspiration we should all have in common. One of the basic purposes we all share in this life is to grow, to become the best we can be, and to pass on our knowledge to future generations. We should want our future generations to learn from our mistakes and to surpass our own successes. With that said, future generations rely on us to have confidence in the things we do. We must believe that we are good enough for them to believe in us, and for them to then believe in themselves. Positive affirmations are learned and passed down. We must speak life into our children and they shall live. Live—not survive. Live.

The Artist... The Nurse... The Servant
It’s the Fall of 2008. I’m a senior at the University of Miami studying Music Education. I’m in the top two ensembles singing Alto. I’m growing spiritually in Christ. Making new friends. Studying a mixture of the two things I love: education and music. I couldn’t be happier.

Dear Life, I Kinda Found You
When I was about 14, I thought to myself one night, “I want to make a change in the world.” Then, the older I got, I just didn’t care about anything. Seeing what the world was really like, I was like, "How can I help this mess?" So I just gave up on a lot of things. I grew up with no father in my life, but sure had a strong mother. Fast forward and to get pretty deep out of nowhere, depression kicked in around 18 years old. Just like most people in the world, I struggled with how I looked, just wasn’t confident at all with myself, and so many more issues I honestly don’t want to get into. Suicide was definitely an option I thought about multiple times. I definitely couldn’t go through with it because at the last moment, I would just think what life might have in store for me. When I got into this weird moods, nobody could take me out these moods. But I did find two things that could... wrestling and music.
