“Each one of us struggles in a different way, and each has a story to tell. I wish sometimes we’d learn from others instead of being the story ourselves…” Said Alexandra – Chapter Nine, Life’s Detours: Alexandra’s Choices

Never underestimate how much your mind can divert your day and your future. A positive mind calls the positiveness of the universe toward you and filters down to your surroundings to spread motivation, inspiration, and peace…
Always remember, Your Mind… Your Power… & Your World!
When I was stuck, I dug deep down searching for my power… When Alexandra was stuck, she found her inner strength within herself… When Abigail was stuck, her grandpa helped her, but she used her own magic to fix her friendship and surrounding…” #MOI I am the author asking you, what do you do to find peace and your magic power?

“Words we say that can make us feel better are not the best we can do… There are two sides to every conversation and communication where words are just one of the components & skills.
Imagine the effect of your body language when you are acting and reacting; hear your words, tone of your voice, and take into consideration how they are perceived before you go on.
It’s called think, breathe, & then speak. Can you imagine a world where everyone does that!
Well, it is my favorite world, a world where we step on the floor not on each other; a world where we respect other’s shadows and their spaces to grow.“
“Do you ever look at people around you and tell yourself, I know how they think, I understand their intentions, the game, & then you find yourself having to decide… “Is it worth my time?” Well, yes is the answer, and a situation I do not favor; sometimes all I want is to have genuine people around me, simply because I get tired of watching my steps and words while having to watch my back!”
#MOI About those in our life, some we are stuck with, others we have a choice
As planned by the medical team, she was born on schedule, at the crack of dawn, and brought a burst of new sunshine to my life. She joined her family, the one long waiting for her. The anxiety I was living disappeared the second I held her in my arms; my joy was unexplainable the minute her sister Vanessa woke up in the hospital, left her portable crib, and came running wobbling in her yellow footed pajama, jumped on the hospital bed, put her tiny little hand on the cheeks of the baby, kissed her on the nose, and asked to carry her… and from there on, it was the three of us!
Too many details, but it is was a picture I cannot forget; it was a picture drawn for life in a moment, showing how the future will be.
Her name was chosen, came with her, and was sent with her; she was my gift from God and the answer to my prayers; she was a TIFFANY, and that was the meaning of her name.
Being a mom has been my dream since I ever remember, and having a family was my goal. As I said yesterday, it was one item crossed completed on my life bucket list.
Tuesday, January 24, 2023, happened the matching day of the week of her birth in 1995; I am sitting here thinking about every mother’s concern: what will it be? Life is a package of surprises, some we like, some we dislike, but one thing we cannot deny is the amount of love a woman discovers in herself once she becomes a mother. All I can say, you never know how protective you become until you have to protect your child… & you never know how much love you have until you have your own child to love!
#MOI Happy day, it is for me, proud mommy, and happy birthday to my grown lady! Dear Tiffany, here are my 28 wishes for you on your 28th birthday: Live, Love, Laugh, Dream, Live, Love, Laugh, Dream, Live, Love, Laugh, Dream, Live, Love, Laugh, Dream, Live, Love, Laugh, Dream, Live, Love, Laugh, Dream, Live, Love, Laugh, Dream… God bless you with health and happiness!
I remember this day back in 1995, strictly Monday, January 23. It was the closing of my 40th week in pregnancy and a planned delivery due to health complications; I was excited & scared.
The house was ready, & my firstborn Vanessa was ready; her portable crib, clothes, food, and toys, and she was excited to welcome her baby sister!
The plan was to go to the hospital at 11:00 pm, induce labor around 1:00 am, & give birth at around 7:00 am before Vanessa wakes up.
The birth went according to plan, the only thing I could not plan and finalize was the journey of the two sisters and the answers to my fear when thinking: what if & what if I would not be around?!
Tomorrow I will talk about the welcome of the baby; as for today, I want to talk about the role of faith in my life and what I learned. When you have questions, have faith; when you have fears, have faith; & when you have concerns, have faith!
I am not saying I did not turn my back upset with God many times; I am telling you, every time I turned around, HE was there to wipe my tears and hold my hand to be stronger.
Thank you, God, for the gift you gave me; being a mom was the first goal and dream I had, ever, and here I check it off my bucket list as complete.
#MOI Grateful, Happy, & Proud mommy, God bless all children!
“What happened to Alexandra’s dream? Did she let go, did she reach the big Lady city?”
#MOI What about your dream, did you let go, did you trust yourself enough to chase it?
Check the books, the characters, & their stories!
I am an author, I share my experience through writing, I write to inspire & I tell you the following if you get a chance to research my books: it’s a life, not a book; it’s a woman, not a character; it’s a reality & not a story!
The difference between us is I am unconditional! What a true statement about being genuine and taken for granted; I guess there is a price for every extreme, and eventually, we will crack!
#MOI the opposite of unconditional is a non-satisfied me; see how their actions changed me!
