There are seasons in which it’s easy to share, and then there are seasons wherein I go into turtle mode. Today, I know I need to share. As a matter of fact, I know I need to share more. Even though it seems like I wear my heart on my sleeve, I really don’t. Shocking,Continue reading “Faith and trust”

I can’t run from myself…
There’s nowhere to hide. For years, I was convinced that if I kept it moving, eventually things would be different. Better. As if miraculously, all of the baggage I was carrying around would be lost by the airline, and I’d be…happy. When I realized my baggage was attached to me, I tried to numb theContinue reading “I can’t run from myself…”
Strength, insecurity, dignity, grace, fear, faith…all the bloody things
There’s something in the air the week. It feels like a week of rapid transformation. Or deterioration. Or both. If I were to lay it all out, you wouldn’t believe the shit I’ve been facing. And it’s only Thursday. In general, I feel that I am a pretty selfless person. But man…this week…it’s been allContinue reading “Strength, insecurity, dignity, grace, fear, faith…all the bloody things”
Triggered into the future
Years ago, there was a man with whom I was very much in love. We were best friends. We were basically inseparable. There was one huge, glaring problem between us. My faith. We had hours and hours of discussions, debates, tirades for and against God. Finally, one day, he asked me a question. “Deneen, ifContinue reading “Triggered into the future”
Have you ever had a day that was so chock full of emotion that you are completely, emotionally hungover the next day? Well…that is me today. Yesterday my niece graduated from high school. I may be weeping under those sunglasses…but you can’t prove it! 😍😍 To say that I am proud of her is theContinue reading
Coming alive
There is a dream that has been inside of you for your whole life. It’s lingering just below your consciousness…every once in a while it bubbles to the surface, but you bury it out of fear. Then…you pull it up to see it, and laugh at it, writing it off as a childish dream, nothingContinue reading “Coming alive”
Treatise
I understand why I’ve attracted the people into my life that I have. I take responsibility for the energy that I’ve put out into the universe to attract the people I have. That being said…my energy is shifting. I’m not tolerating the same bullshit I have in the past…because I’m not the same person IContinue reading “Treatise”
My own personal Narnia
The best part about having an autoimmune disease is that it builds a level oh humility in you that is unparalleled. I mean…one day you feel like a million bucks. You have a decent amount of energy; you sleep like it’s your job; your whole body is working in synergy. The next morning you wakeContinue reading “My own personal Narnia”
You have ACES, baby!
We are all dealt a hand of cards when we’re born. Genetics. Family. Geography. But…how you play the hand is up to you. Last night, I was watching a poker game. Everyone at the table plays a certain character at the table. The old dude who is extra chatty and drunk. The aloof guy whoContinue reading “You have ACES, baby!”
I see you
Hi. I see you. 👀 You. Walking down the street, looking like you have it all. Coifed hair. Nice shoes. Perfect makeup. Good job. Good relationship. Nice car. Pretty house. 2.5 kids, dog, picket fence. Glazed over eyes, just going through the motions. Numb. Numbing yourself with Facebook, instagram, candy crush. I see you. YouContinue reading “I see you”
