progress. not perfection.

24 Jun

i am a work in progress. 

i am on my way to becoming the person i want to be.  i want to be the soccer mom a la carol brady.  i want to be the wife that kicks martha stewart’s ass.  i want to be the daughter that buys her parents a home.  i want to be the cook that serves orgasms on a plate at every gathering and publishes recipes.   i want to be the blogger that everyone quotes.  i want to be the friend that never lets you down. i want to be the stranger that you want to meet.  i want to be the person in your life that refuses to let you feel unappreciated. 

cuz i’ve been inspired.  and i want to inspire u.   so that u can inspire somebody else and pay that shit forward.   

 ever feel like ur soul is on fire?    someone or something opens the door and ur smacked in the face with a passion for something u never knew u had?    and u start to explore yourself more and u work harder at ur own happiness and realize that u were dead before. u were just floating on what u think u should be doing rather than what ur heart tells u to be doing.. u were just…  existing? 

if i’m going to be alive, i might as well be incredible.  i want to do more than just exist.

and although i cannot finitely say i’m done,  i can say that i’m doing with as much conviction as my cold black heart lets me. 

my soul is on fire. and  i dont need no water, let that muthafucka burn.

    We often come across a few gems who deserve to be acknowledged for their honesty, fearlessness, and individuality. I have been reading your blog for a few hours now, and I just want to say that it’s rare I meet another fellow lady who thinks the same way as I do and can express it in a way without sounding like a conceited , attention-seeking whore.

    Love & Peace
