#celebration – inside her broken mind

The year 2020

I am almost certain that we did not plan for the woes that came with 2020. The happenings of the year broke most of us, it took so many things and love ones from us. For me it will forever be lodge in history.

So with bated breath, we look towards 2021, careful not to place too much hope in it, out of fear. Which is understandable. But as humans we hope. We hope for things to change, we hope that when the sun rises in the ski revealing the first morning of the new year something pure will happen. That the dust of 2020 will just stay only in 2020.

The reality is the woes that were prevalent in 2020 will come with us for a time in the coming year. But we hope… That as the days pass normalcy we returned.

Although 2020 was a turbulent year I’m sure most of us can honestly say we learnt something new about ourselves, we discovered some hidden talent and we have all engaged in something we longed to do but time was lacking…

As We hope for a better year never for get what 2020 has thought us… How to survive inspire of the odds… The year 2020

Knowledge

Words that matter

It was Sir Francis Bacon who stated, knowledge is power and with all my heart I believe this phrase. The more knowledgeable someone is the more equip they are to make a decision. I must admit though that even though persons may get this knowledge they may not choose the direction or option you had intended. However, its a decision they have made base on the knowledge or information given.

Now more than ever people are using the voices they have been given and often they lean on facts to support their claims. So gone are the days when they think they are entrapped thus skewing them to one direction, as information is now available at their finger tips.

This era is different and this generation view things differently… Empower us with knowledge. We are reading and applying that which we have read. We are also committing things to memory for later. Feed us with the right things… Empower us with knowledge

Some days until Christmas

One of the most common plants of the Christmas season is the Poinsettia. Known for its bright beautiful and bold red, this plant screams Christmas. Up until a few nights ago my knowledge of Poinsettia was very limited, but now I have a little better understanding. The Poinsettia has thought me two big lessons .

1. Wait until your season comes and while in the waiting get mature. Everyone has a season, at times for them when things are going in your favor in a remarkable way. There is also a time when you are being processed getting refined. The refining process are not always the best as in it can be hard. Especially if you keep looking around and seeing other people get what your heart desires. But don’t rush, its not your season. You are not for the summer season wait. In this period of waiting get mature. Learn to develop a resistant. Critical analyze things work you to become better.

2. When your season comes no one can stop you. The Poinsettia glows and blossom so differently as it gets to the holiday and most person are fascinated with it and it simply cannot be overlooked. Like the poinsettia,when your season comes you cannot be overlooked. You glow differently you get recognition from places and persons you did not expect. It is now your time, you are for the winter season and despite the conditions that presents itself you will thrive!

The Poinsettia never compete. They know their worth will be seen soon. Be like the a Poinsettia don’t compete or compare yourself with someone of the summer, spring, autumn or winter season. Know when its your time and rest assured you will know when your time has come too.

Its 14 days until Christmas!

“Its the most wonderful time of the year” we are in the in the Christmas season and I am really excited about it. Although some of our traditions will not be done this year I am indeed grateful. Christmas holds different meaning for everyone as for me, its when we celebrate the birth of Jesus. Yes of course I do enjoy the festivities the season as to offer as well, but celebrating Christ birth supercedes all.

Let’s talk about one of the traditional events that Jamaica is known for, maybe mostly by the citizens, but why not share? So Grand-market is one of those things almost everyone looks forward to. At this time, the streets main cities throught all fourteen parish, are laden with vendors. These vendors rangers from selling food to clothing, just a long variety of things. That this time persons try to dress dapper and chic as possible. This is also a time when you get to go out with friends and family, staying out, buying a lot of things, especially toys if you have children and basically whatever floats your boat.

This will not be the case this year,as social distancing needs to be done in order to flatten the curve. But there are so much to be done. Like getting a Christmas tree, ensure presents are well stock underneath it, if you are into that. Help out a neighbors who is in need. You can even save that money. Most of all spend sometime with Jesus.

Christmas is not over because we cannot go out or travel, this is you chance to be innovative, making some new that can possibly live on for generation to come.

Self Motivation

Food from the table of her mind

A little motivation to get you through your day

This morning when I got up I was not in the mood to do anything, infact I lazely got out of bed. I had so much that I wanted to do. Today was the day I wanted to finally make my first video for my YouTube channel and upload some Tiktok video. I sat around the table staring at my phone. Running the simulation in my head as to how I wanted the videos to unfold, but I didn’t feel motivated.

Then I decided that I was going to get them done despite how I was feeling. So I got up did my hair in a lively up do, put on my favorite shade of red lipstick, sat infront of my phone and started to record. Almost immediately I came alive. I was fun of so much enjoy and vibes I kept spontaneously erupting in laughter as I made errors.

There are going to be days when you feel so dejected or so demotivated, but if you fight those ill feeling I believe you can cease the day. Sometimes you have to encourage and motivate yourself. You have to be your biggest cheerleader. Friends or family may not always be around to give you that pep talk, but imagine having something so deeply embeded within you, that force itself to the surface on those days when you need the most. Being intrinsically motivated is one of the best arrow in your quiver.

In this very moment I so happy for everything that life has to offer. I am also very happy for the various platform I have to express myself. I am happy for 4 followers on blog, 8 followers on my channel and 1 follower on my tiktok.

PS: It is a huge deal
