Always

Constantly walking and not knowing where I’m going or coming and to figure out my path is quite interesting. Growing up understanding that my spiritual side need nourishment too was so fascinating.

My mother didn’t introduce me to it formally but by way of the spirits it was introduced through dreams or visions of the past and what to do and who might or might not be after me.

I used to always repeat a song called my enemies by Eve to point out the things in my life that could block my progress. I had friends state that they care but actions speak volumes and words telling the truth that I might not want to hear. But I always hear my mother tell me that you don’t have friend but family.

How could I define family when I always felt like an outcast myself. Feelings and actual acknowledgment of what is embracing people so they could feel love is different. I am a Leo and I love to be in the spotlight and adorned but mutual. The loving nature that is shown from someone is hard for me to accept because I have family members that will treat you worst than any friend would. Then the friends that I have to treated like family put a Façade as if they were someone else around my family or around there.

When people say keep it 100 do they really mean or is that what they are saying to deflect from what is truth or false.
