Versailles: The Life and Times of Queen Khira

Now this is what I’m talking about,  a little literary therapy!!  Our thoughts are complicated enough to keep straight, so why not write it all down?!  I am an avid believer in putting thoughts down on paper(obviously!), but the therapeutic benefits are phenomenal!! There are so many ways to keep a personal journal.  You can use it to record and interpret your dreams, it can be a place you write your goals/aspirations and begin to manifest them into real life; it can even be a place to vent frustrations.  Regardless of what you choose to write down, those blank pages will always be there for you. It’s the quiet, patient ear you have longed for in a friend, but with the added benefit of only giving you the response you want to hear.  It’s also a wonderful source of self-reflection and a way to watch yourself grow. Even the most novice of authors can keep a journal the emergence of the “bullet list journal”, in which case you are just listing off thoughts, ideas, etc in your own unique w

If only it were that easy...Oh wait, it is, through Meditation!  It’s no small coincidence that the word Medicine has the same prefix!  People, we have been told countless times of the overall benefits of Meditation, yet we hesitate in intergrating the practice into everyday life.  WHY??!! Answer:  It’s something about TRUE spirituality and connectedness that scares us all. Fear is a naturally imbedded defense mechanism meant to trigger response to a dangerous situation.  This, unfortunately is public knowledge, and has been weaponized to impede the individual’s inate desire  to reach beyond what is seen and search within for the answers we seek. I will use myself and an experience I had when I first started with my meditation practices. I was sitting completely relaxed, feeling the air around me; I thought, “I wonder what it would be like if my body was practically weightless like the air around me..”. Just as quickly as the thought was formed, I started to be “lifted”!

This whole free will and right to choose thing is getting wayyy out of hand.  Like anything else, “With great power comes great responsibility” which may be most relevant in this particular situation.  We have to be careful with what we are running around spilling into the air. While we are all out here attempting to live our best lives and be the best version of ourselves, it is vital to ensure you are NOT putting people in a position to where we are taking away their natural birthright of self-decision.   Listen, if it’s anything that irks me beyond measure is when I am “forced” to feel some type of way. We are all guilty of transference, whether intentional or not.  Unfamiliar with this concept??  Well let me set the stage for you😉. Imagine your significant other comes into the room where u have been sitting for the past few minutes in a full on funk.  You don’t even know why your upset yet, it’s that fresh.  When they enter, he/she is extactic over something that has happened and

We all want to wear them, but dammit if they not a bitch to walk in!!  The most painful part of stepping into our true selves is having to deal with  aspects of ourselves that we never really examined. Yet while we are on this incredible journey, LIFE DOES NOT STOP HAPPENING.  I say this is because  while I am still growing into myself, BS is still BS.  The difference is that now I'm actually EXAMINING it.  Yup, I pick it up, turn it over.  All that. Everything happens for a reason, this we all know, so now I just want to get to the WHY.  Let me tell you something, BS examination is sooooo ANNNOOOYYYYIIINNNGGG!!  But I can't help it. This is why I say these big girl boots gotta GO!! Na, all jokes aside.  It is absolutely a %100 fact that once you KNOW, you cannot go back to the way things used to be.  No matter how much I try, old ways of thinking and handling certain situations just don't suit me anymore.  Every challenge or opposition I am faced with now has me

Lets imagine for a moment that every person in your world represents a different aspect of ourselves. Looking at those individuals from this perspective, are you able to see it?  Are you able to truly see those figures around you and able to identify who they are in you?  No? Well Maybe Its time for some true self- reflection. When this idea first presented itself to me, I did reflect on it for a moment or two, but filed to appreciate the thought in its entirety.  It wasn't till recently my higher self brought this thought back to the surface.  Surely this couldn't be a coincidence.  So I pondered on it further... What I decided to do was conduct a social experiment of sorts.   I chose to list out those around me, and truly think about who they really were to me.  I thought about what they truly embody for me.  When I looked at each individual for who they were at their basic core,  I was actually able to see myself.  It was introspective. It forced me to examine p

The Universe Loves Me.  I KNOW this.  I have always known I was meant to be, COMPLETELY intentional.  Having this inside me all the time has made life that much easier to bear.  Let's not sleep, the reality we are all currently engaging in is a BBBBIIIITTTTCCCCHHHH!  All pun intended.  The saving grace of it all was to know that I was super-fantastic and receive my Jedi Powers before I turned 40. Listen, life is hard for  reason.  I saw a video that changed my life.  I refuse to speak on it, as its the type of thing that you MUST experience for yourself.  Its the kind of thing that will keep you asking questions as long as you live. This Story Made Me GREAT. I don't endorse, if it ain't about money, then it don't make SENSE #ABM4Life. However, People, this story is EVERYTHING.  It is the absolute culmination of exactly why life is so hard.  Choosing to believe it does nothing but make you live this life to the absolute fullest.  If nothing else, this story

I gotta say folks, I have been feeling pretty damn good lately.😎  Why you ask?!!  It’s all because I have made a personal decision to live in the MOMENT.  What I define this as is doing exactly what I want from one day to the next.   I decided to consciously get out of my own way.  Everything we do in life is a decision.  I just choose now to make the ones that suit me FIRST.     My inaugural edict was wearing my crown everyday!👑😜   Even the most minut of details changes my whole day and perspective.  For example, I don’t eat whatever just because I am hungry.  I eat what I FEEL like eating.  When it comes to my family and home, I go about my tasks in the manner that best suits me.  It’s like we are all waiting for something amazing to happen to take grasp of the life we always wanted.  The fact of the matter is that we are the masters of our own individual universes and the ultimate creators of our reality.  Therefore, if you do not make it, it will NEVER come.

There is one thing that I know for sure has always been  life-long love...stones and crystals.  Ever since I was a kid I can remember visiting my aunt at Liberty Science Center and begging my Grandmother for $5.00 so I could buy a new "rock".  There was even this guy in my town who made a living on a converted school bus visiting schools having kids "dig"(more like sift through shallow trays!) through sand to unearth their own minerals.  I lived for these types of things(weird kid, I know!). As an adult, not much has changed; I mean, my palette has become a bit more refined, switching out pyrite for 14K, and tiger's eye for little Dior birds that sing.  Yet, I still retained my love for raw, uncut, unpolished quartz crystal.  My birthstone is Amethyst, and it definitely holds a special place in my heart, so when I came across this particular necklace, it peeked my interest. I purchased this from the Black Owned company Ancient Aura Jewelry.  When

“No one can love YOU like YOU can, it’s impossible.  When we start to embrace that and live our lives with this purpose in mind, maybe, just maybe, we will begin to understand exactly what it takes to be a twin flame.” In  Chinese philosophy ,  yin and yang  ( / ˈ j ɪ n   ˈ j ɑː ŋ / ;  Chinese :  陰 陽   yīnyáng , lit. "dark-bright", "negative-positive") describes how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary,  interconnected , and interdependent in the natural world, and how they may give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. Many tangible  dualities  (such as  light and dark , fire and water, expanding and contracting) are thought of as physical manifestations of the duality symbolized by yin and yang. This duality lies at the origins of many branches of classical  Chinese science  and philosophy, as well as being a primary guideline of  traditional Chinese medicine , [1]  and a central principle of different f

Today's Inspiration: Stacy London and Clinton Kelly Ok.  Before I begin, The Queen needs to take a deep breath. I am beyond baffled at the newest foolishness that seems to be plaguing women today: spending their money on things they don't really like nor need, then complaining about what they don't have. Excuse Me? Exactly how much sense could this possibly make?  You mean to tell me, you work. make money, spend it how you see fit, but in the same breath express disdain for your purchases and make it the responsibility of your friends to compensate for your lapse in good judgment? WTF?  Listen Ladies, we as your friends are tired of your lackadaisical approach to life and your appearance and we ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE.  We are tired of teaching you how to be grown and stand on your own two feet.  Its not the job of your friends to provide you with the lifestyle THEY are accustomed to, because they refuse to get down on you level and you don't wa

Have you ever wondered why there are sooo many different shades of lipstick?   I have contemplated this numerous times on many different occasions.  My thoughts ran the full gambit from profit to personality. My theory is finally complete, and I’m ready to share with the world.  Move in close, this is going to be good...😎 Lipstick is the mood ring of our generation.  The plethora of colors are necessary to fully identify the full range of female (and yes, in some cases male🙄) emotion.  So guess what this means guys...if you decode your woman’s lipstick collection, you will be able to tell EXACTLY how she feels! 🤔. Depending on how complex a creature she actually is, even the NAMES of the shades can even be revealing.  Yep, I told you this was about to get deep!    Men can use this info, and take a proactive approach if he only needs a little extra assistance deciphering his woman’s emotions. By purchasing a few shades for her, you will know when you see those specific shad
