~sigh
It really happened.
Today…I…spent the last of my foodstamps.
~sobbing~
They’re all gone and they’re not coming back. I’m not a college kid anymore.
Man…
~chuckles~
And still I smile.
Transitioning from single college mom to single working mom. Trying to be a light and represent Christ. Trying to hold down my household without the certainty of financial aid. Making sure to love on my sons as my as much I can while still showing them who’s got the upper hand.
And still I smile.
You know, there’s more to me than my struggles and pain. I laugh. I make jokes. I have fun. Yeah, I still am working through issues, but, hey, who isnt?
Today I decided to cataog my hopes and share them with you. I have a vision that is so grand I sometimes can’t believe I dream this big.

1) My own talk show
2) Write for magazines
3) Write books
4) Be a motivational speaker
5) Earn a passive income
6) Be an Easy, Breezy, Beautiful Cover girl cosmetics model
7) Be on the cover on Essence magazine

12) Own my own home(s)

My dreams on a platter served fresh and inviting.
Yet to be accomplished but promised.
I smile even though I dont know why. I guess it’s the promise of God remaining in my life.
Do you have a vision?
