Saying YES to Yourself

When I sit and think about all the times in a day when my answer to a request is "yes"; then cross-reference that with how many times I am saying that to myself , the statistics are drastically one sided...why is this? For me to be the ultimate expert on all things Queen Khira, you would think that I would no doubt know exactly what she NEEDS; so why are you denying yourself the power of "YES"?!

My answer in short, I thought that by fulfilling the needs of those around me, it would ensure my peace of mind, and their happiness would vicariously be my own. This was a thought process that served me well; until it didn't...I slowly but surely became resentful, and started to feel like a servant, and nothing more. I needed to figure out quick fast and in a hurry what the problem was, and FIX it IMMEDIATELY.

It is never a good thing, regardless of how must you love someone, to give everything you have and reserve nothing for yourself. Granted, EVERY relationship in your life should be a reciprocal scenario, YOU are solely responsible for your own happiness, and ensuring that you are getting what it is you need. this applies not only to others, but most importantly, when it comes to how you are treating YOU.

That quote sums it up perfectly. You are the example for the rest of the world as to exactly you are and how you EXPECT to be treated. If you are treating you shitty, then why would the next man do anything differently? Stop sacrificing yourself and your needs thinking that you are doing something; you're not, just hurting yourself. There has been a larger discussion being had about black mental health, and the effects of past trauma on the current psyche, yet I see very little discussion addressing the effects of what we do to ourselves on a daily basis that stunts the healing process. These are just as pertinent, and have the ability to mentally cripple us in ways we have yet to discover. We must train ourselves to Love ourselves UNCONDITIONALLY; there is no other way...~The Queen~

Crystals and Couture

Those just might be my 2 favorite C words known to man! With the start of a new year, it's only right I acquire a little bit of both! I've had my eyes peeled for the past few weeks for all of the best sales; I had my heart set on a new piece of Rainbow Tourmaline and Rose Quartz(see below for crystal properties and uses if you aren't familiar!). At the same time, I have also been dreaming of some new bags; crossbodys and a satchel, to be specific; a little on the fancy side though. All of my work was not in vain because guess what?! Marshall's is now carrying Badgley Mischka handbags and wallets-mike drop...but it gets even BETTER-not one item is priced over $29.99!! Wait, What?! Yes Please!! Amazon has 1 lb of Raw Rainbow Tourmaline AND Rose Quartz for under $15.00. I also came across a National Geographic Rock Polisher for $39.99!! Your girl is absolutely THRILLED!! What crystals do you have your eye on?! Have you guys come up on any superstar purse deal

You Only Owe YOURSELF

I had an epiphany the other day... What if we put all the energy we expel on others that is foolishly wasted BACK into ourselves, our life dreams, and into creating the world we CHOOSE to live in??!! Before we all become hopelessly selfish and self-involved, re-read, and take in the thought in its ENTIRETY!!! I am talking SPECIFICALLY in instances where your positive energy, time, and effort are not being reciprocated. There are so many situations we find ourselves in to which we develop an animosity of sorts towards those we are actively trying to help when we don’t feel that same energy being returned to us in one form or another. Yet, we are taking umbridge with the wrong individual. The person we should be focusing those feelings is right there waiting on the other side of the mirror. That is who entangled you and your resources to an individual making moves to which your higher self is not in agreement. This is who we should look to for explanation and a game

Being Present

This Moment, the one happening right now, is ALL that there is. Allow me to explain... Yes, there is a past, things that have already happened. What must be understood about these events is, once they happen, they are OVER. It's gone. If it is any point in time that you are not actively engaged in, that point does not currently exist. The principle is also works on the inverse; anything that has yet to occur, has yet to come into existence , and should have absolutely NO bearing on what is currently happening to you. Our past is a experienced-based tool from which to learn and grow FORWARD. It is not meant to trap us or the people in our lives, preventing our best lives from being brought to fruition. If there is something behind you, LET IT GO. Grasp the lesson and understand that there is no going back. On the same note, we must also do the same when it comes to anticipation of events yet to come. Being wrapped up in anxiety of how something MAY play out
