My Thoughts As An Author

 

I am a writer who does not limit herself to one specific genre.

I write by what naturally inspires me at any given time as I am naturally versatile- whether it be self-help, devotional, non fiction or fiction novels of suspense.

One thing I have observed through my writing, and with life in general- as certain others have I am sure, is that people will view things and/or judge within their own perception- viewing through their own personal lenses.

What they may interpret or misinterpret may not at all correspond or have anything to do with what I or another may be expressing, divulging, or projecting.

All of us writers do not use ourselves as examples, yet we may share what we have seen or encountered through others firsthand while also adding to our own experience as a confirmation to what we know is fact or a possibility.

As writers and as human beings, we will always receive some form of criticism, praise, or misjudgment. It is all up to the individual on how they accept, handle, or ignore what others throw out.

I personally am a very strong, resilient, determined person who cannot be swayed by the judgment or opinions of others.

When we write and live life, we are not always going to please others- and I do not seek nor have I ever sought validation or approval from anyone.

I have God-given talents just like a lot of us do, and writing is something I have loved to do since my childhood and is my passion.

If anyone chooses to learn or feel enlightened or inspired by my writings, then so be it. If not, so be it. I do not write to please or to disturb anyone I write because it is one of my callings as I am extremely creative.

There is nothing wrong with sharing and exchanging ideas.

I also feel that as a writer one should never let anyone discouraged them in their ventures or visions.

Always stand up for yourself and what you believe in and if others misunderstand you or persecute you for any reason that is their problem not ours.

Some people in life will relate to others in some form or fashion and some will not- and that is a good thing.

Most of the time their words and/or actions are a reflection of themselves and not of us. We as individuals all cannot be the same.

If so, life would be dull and boring.

Be happy, be healthy, and publish the beauty of your diversity of talent until your heart is content!

We all have something wonderful to contribute to the world.- LaToya Lawrence

 

 

 

 

I Love This Verse!

Isaiah 35:4

Say to those with fearful hearts, “Be strong, and do not fear, for your God is coming to destroy your enemies. He is coming to save you.”

God Definitely Has The Final Say! I Just Published Another Book This Month❤

 

Both my two new books are available in paperback, hardcover, and ebook.

 

I Just Published A Brand New Book ❤

A few weeks ago I mentioned publishing a manuscript I wrote over twenty years ago?

Well, I did not get to that yet- but I will eventually.

Suddenly energy came out of nowhere to inspire me to come up with new ideas/new material along with the old ones I had regarding novels I intended to put out years ago though I did not get the chance to due to jealous people trying to hold me back (it is a long story but one I triumphed over as no one could ever stop me or bring me down. I am a fighter and a survivor to the end).

I have a brand-new book I just recently published and have been busy currently in the process of writing two more for publication.

This is my time now to get back into my career as a true to the heart book writer without any interference.

Like I said before, when God has a purpose and plan for your life no one can stop it.

We may get delayed for a while but we get back on board to sail an even bigger ship! ❤

I am so happy and excited about getting back into publishing.

Days Of Summer☀️

 

There is a time and a place for everything.

So, when the times are convenient, and the places are suitable to my liking- delightfully inviting- and affordable to my pockets, everything should provide to equally coincide.

This summer I plan on enjoying the outdoors more the way I used to outside of the usual work days.

Sometimes before and/or after working I navigated spare time by fitting in outings to modestly shop, dine, or check out an interesting event.

I saved days off mostly to rest and relax.

I will still chill out at home, though, I will also endeavor to take some free days to go innocently enjoy myself in other natural ways that attract my attention.

We all deserve healthy balances.

 

 

That Wind💨

 

I left yesterday morning headed for work.

I stood by the curb in the partially lit sunlight looking out for the bus.

While I waited, I took in the air of a breeze. One that went through me time and again.

Oh, how I loved it- standing in the middle of the comfortable summer wind.

I hoped it would last throughout the day.

Yet, later, on my way home, it turned full on sunny, humid then cloudy.

I wanted that wind once again.

 

My Friends Are Unbelievable!❤

 

My friends are unbelievably Special.

They are so true and real to the core! They never cease to amaze me.

We do not have to see one another everyday or talk on the phone everyday but we stay in contact. We are there for one another, and we are available for one another at any time when possible.

These people I speak of I have known forever. It is no mistake that we are in each other’s lives and circle of acquaintance.❤

 

 

Hurt By What Is Supposed To Be Hurtful? Oh No, I Don’t Think So!❤

 

I am a free spirit, unabashed, and uninhibited.

I have come across ignorant, low-level/low-minded people in the past who tried to, intended to, or who thought that they were hurting me with things or circumstances that did not- and that never have fazed or mattered to me.

Even some who do not intentionally set out to hurt still have erroneous notions that what they consider hurtful is generally hurtful to mostly everyone else.

To me, this way of thinking is totally ridiculous as there are far too many people in the world for all of us to feel and/or react the same.

Why do certain people assume, think, or believe that what may hurt or bother them hurts or bothers certain others?

The concept is so strange to me and such a complete turn off.

Some people will mistake other people’s actions or reactions as stemming from hurt when it is completely the opposite simply because their minds cannot fathom other senses of reasoning.

I never thought like the majority, and I never will because I know better just by being true to who I really am.

I do not even get embarrassed by things people consider to be embarrassing. What is there really to be embarrassed about if one has their own unique convictions?

If people are unable to accept life conditions that go against, or that are unusual from what they are familiar with and accustomed to, then they really have something to learn about rare or distinct individuals.

I was never a common person in this society who went along with what is typical and I am proud of this fact.

I genuinely have my own mind, my own thoughts- way of thinking or viewing things, my own beliefs, and my own natural state of being.

I am happy, at peace, and unapologetic for being unconventional and going against the norm.

 

 

Lady Luck

 

Wow! I captured a good picture!

I had forgotten that I had spotted this beauty and taken this photo with my smartphone last week while I was out in Nassau County.

I always associated Ladybugs with good luck and blessing.

I often count their dots when I get close enough to see them.

 

Neighborly ❤

 

Since the eleven years I moved from across town to my current lovely, quiet peaceful neighborhood area of Queens, I have experienced positive energy around my surroundings.

Healthy environments mean a lot.

I have nice, friendly neighbors. We politely look out for one another in our building, and we live harmoniously together.

I have not once in the eleven years I have lived here witnessed any major disharmony or confrontations.

We do not hang out with one another or negatively viciously gossip about each other, but we greet one another, stop and talk with one another, and help one another through kind gestures.

 

 

 

True Inklings❤

 

My right-hand has been itching lately.

Almost every time my right-hand itches I do end up receiving a little extra money to go into my pockets.

I have on numerous accounts experienced superstitions that have strong rings of truth to them.

Too bad when my feet itch, I do not happen to walk into large extra patches of money! 😻

 

The Voice Of A Stranger: When Strangers Are Not So Strange

 

Of course we know not to and do not always pay attention to random people on the street who speak out at us eerily.

Sometimes we can barely pay attention to some people we do know. Then there are times we come across those mysteriously.

My mother told me four years ago that she may not be alive to see it, but that I was going to receive in life all that I was meant to have whatever that is.

Yesterday a man standing beside me on the bus came out and told me that I was going to make it, and that I was already there.

I think this guy was a little nutty, but messages sometimes come to us in funny ways.

I remember during my teenage years a Hispanic girl told me when she was pregnant everybody kept telling her that she was going to have a girl.

She told me she had gotten so upset and would cry because everyone kept telling her she was going to give birth to a daughter as she did not want a female child.

One day unexpectedly, the Hispanic girl told me a woman stranger came up to her and told her that everybody was telling her that she was going to have a baby girl- but that she was not going to.

This woman told her the unborn child would be a boy as she wanted.

When delivery time came around the Hispanic girl did have a male child as the woman on the street predicted.

So, one never knows, perhaps this woman had a gift of insight.

My mother and one of her friends told me the same thing years ago- that a psychic woman came up to them once on the street telling them things that were true.

To think of it the instance happened to me once.

Nevertheless, whether I have made it yet or not I am on my way.

All I ever wanted to do was stay to myself most of the time, write, own a business when I decided on the nature of the platform, and live a nice, quiet, peaceful life in a dwelling of choice with my canines.

 

 

Who Really Cares?❤

 

 

My mother told me a long time ago not to tell people that I do not care what others think because they will think something is wrong with me.

I know my mother meant well, but to be honest, quite a few things about the way I think and feel I am sure certain- not all- people would think something is wrong with me anyway, so I do not really care one way or the other.

I am not afraid to be myself or to express myself. I cannot help how others will perceive. Oftentimes ordinary perception does not indicate reality it is just a personal opinion or notion formed into one’s mind by conjecture or an impression they received whether it be true or false.

I think most people do care what others think, that is why when people who genuinely profess not to care others may not truly believe them even though they are being totally honest.

However, we are out there, we do exist, and we are authentic- and we surely without a doubt do not care what other people think❤.

 

When People Are Very Jealous And Intimidated By You

 

What I have observed in the past is that some people do not understand spiritually gifted people.

I cannot speak for all, however, from my experience, spiritually gifted people do not dwell on or worry about things.

We have a heightened sense of awareness that keeps us informed about things going on even if we are not physically present in a situation or are nowhere around when occurrences are taking place. So if things rewind and playback- it is no fault or flaw of ours- it is a natural part of the extra sensory process that helps us to stay vigilant when necessary.

We can be anywhere and pick up on something that is going on somewhere else if we happen to get those vibes.

These vibes stay with us intermittently or steadily depending on the circumstances and nature of the individual and their spiritual radar.

Things that may have transpired within the past that may connect somehow to the present or future may arise as a warning, an enlightenment, or a reminder of something relevant.

A strange vibe that I get and have gotten periodically that proves to be confirmed is those whom for sick reasons of their own resent me for the person I am.

I remember during my early twenties, neighborhood people who knew of me hated the fact that I had nothing that they considered “dirt” on me.

I never understood these people’s low-level mentality.

If I did ever come to have anything that they were to consider dirt that did not mean the instance would be considered dirt to me as far as their warped minds are concerned.

They wanted something they thought they could hold over my head to bring me down to their level or lower.

When they could not do it, they worked witchcraft on me while spreading lies about me, harassing me in effort to give me a mental breakdown of some sort, and from what I heard to stop me from doing the things in life that I wanted to do.

None of them succeeded in their endeavors as my mind could not grasp the idiocy of what they were doing.

I was not affected and kept going on with my life while at the same time constantly aware of everything transpiring around me.

I knew they were not going to win because the darkness cannot overpower the light.

My father -who is trash himself- even had enough sense to admit to me that these people were wasting their time as the street-life is an entirely different life than those of us who are decent and of class, and that their head games and other off the wall nonsense was not going to work on me.

These people were determined and wanted to see my demise bad.

This originated from jealousy in the family many years ago.

None of this was normal.

Though for all this to have taken place, and these people initially coming after me when I was a seven- or eight-year-old child (when witchcraft was first placed upon me by my envious now deceased great-grandmother) I had to be very important.

Whenever an aspect keeps repeating itself in some form- and you are not the one who is entertaining it, there is some significance behind the matter.

What I have learned through my accounts is that I am a threat to certain negative people.

There is something in life that I am meant to fully accomplish only beknown to God.

Maybe part of the mission is sharing my experiences with others who may have experienced these similar things, and who were accused of being paranoid or crazy because of it or what they knew.

So many people have been destroyed, killed, and put in mental institutions because others would not believe or listen to them on account of conspiracies against them by devious, malicious people.

When God has a mission for us the devil will surely use his human minions to try to devour us.

I currently feel the resentment and animosity coming from those disappointed after all these years. I can even feel the unsettling energy from them within my body.

How I was not disturbed or ruined by the dirt that they tried to corrupt upon me.

Nothing turned out the way they planned, and they will all have to suffer consequences and answer to God for their foolishness.

Nobody bothers me at all.

And if a conflict or negativity does arise here or there as life will sometimes normally bring, I never assume or associate it with something from the past. Intuition or empathic vibe will let me know if something current is connected to someone or something from the past.

Life continues to be peaceful and normal as it should be, but there are a lot of evil, unhappy, lost people out there.

God gives us from birth the strong spirit to handle, undergo, and get through whatever it is we must forge ahead to or through.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Smooth Ride

 

On Wednesday morning, when I left home from Queens, the weather was nice in my location- warm, a mild sunny reflection.

In a car heading on the expressway, I enjoyed the sounds of jazz that played on the radio- including a favorite jazzy Earth, Wind & Fire tune- Beijo (the Brazilian theme) that played.

Once I arrived in Lake Success/New Hyde Park long Island, I noticed a dull orange tint to the environment along with a strong smoky odor.

The weather was still nice, regardless, yet there was no sun out at all. It appeared as if it would rain but there was no hint of precipitation that ever occurred.

The next day, Thursday, I worked out in Valley Stream long Island and the day was clear. When I awoke, I had totally forgotten about the atmosphere the day before even while news broadcasts were advising people not to go out unless they had to due to the danger within the air from the Canada wildfire flames.

It was clear, sunny and warm in Valley Stream.

Everything seems back to normal to me.

Yesterday I worked again in New Hyde Park. I listened to jazz again on the car radio as I had a ride back into Nassau.

I enjoyed the wind blowing in my face from the window as I rode through the expressway- so peaceful and serene.

I was supposed to take a bus ride into Valley Stream again for work this weekend (both for Saturday and Sunday) as I did on Thursday.

However, I decided not to. I am going to relax this weekend. I deserve it.

 

We Are Catching A Huge Whiff Of A Barbecue Here Today In New York🔥

 

I was at home in Queens all day yesterday as it rained off and on- cloudy most of the day.

The sun barely came out and the atmosphere looked strange outside my window.

Today, I am out here working in New Hyde Park (Nassau County).

It is cloudy, foggy, hazy, misty- you name it- like something in a Friday the 13th horror movie.

It smells grotesquely out here

There is a thick fuming burning odor amid the dangerous traveling air coming from the wildfires in Canada.

 

Sexual Harassment 👮‍♀️♀️👮‍♂️♂️🔒

 

Harassment of any nature is not limited to the workplace, of course, it can take place anywhere.

Periodically, at almost every job I ever had we had updated training.

When I worked at Sears Roebuck for four years there was continuous training for us employees to complete electronically as things were constantly changing or advancing.

Even if the subjects and activities within the lessons and testing were just a recoup of what we had already gone over beforehand.

Two weeks ago, I had to do updated training in one of my workplaces regarding sexual harassment- a subject I am very knowledgeable in, and that I have always passed with one hundred percent correctness in answers after testing whether during orientation or training.

This previous occurrence gave me an idea to write about due to the seriousness in nature on jobs where managers are not taking action when they are supposed to. Where managers may side with a perpetrator, or where managers do not take a matter gravely.

Sexual harassment or harassment of any kind should never be tolerated in the workplace.

Do not be afraid, stand up for yourself at all cost and at all means.

A supervisor/manager is supposed to give immediate attention to the employee once harassment is reported. If they do not, and one does not see any results or are not satisfied with an investigation that was carried out then report your case/complaint to The New York City Commission of Human Rights- 718 722 3131.

One can also call or contact The New York Division of Human Rights 888 392 3644.

Personally, I know from my experience when or if anyone tries to harass me in any way I go into kick- their- ass mode.

However, we must think before we instantly or automatically react.

If we do not fight back in a way that is obvious it is not that we are afraid. We just do not want to risk going to jail for assholes who are not worth wasting precious time of our lives over.

Nevertheless, no matter how a negative situation will turn out it is very important to remember that nobody in this life gets away with anything that they do- even if they ignorantly think they have.

It is alright when something is justified, but people get back what is coming to them and God does not let negative deeds/actions go unpaid.

 

 

I Love All My Blogs, And I Love Blogging!

 

I just had to say it again I love all my blogs (all nine of them ❤) and I love blogging.

The Call Of A Writer

 

One of my friends keeps telling me that she cannot wait for me to write and publish another book.

She loved the two I wrote and published years ago.

The thing about us true writers, though, is that we must wait until the energy comes upon us to make that move.

We do not just come up with the material/information instantly the material and information in detailing whatever it is that we are going to write and how we will proceed within our creative process has to materialize upon us when it is ready to reveal itself to us.

Then we can instantly and automatically vibe into the essence of our projects.

That natural energetic direction puts us into mode while it instinctively guides and provides us with stimulation.

This is why I do not rush and try to make myself come up with an idea that does not manifest, because the timing may not be right and things may not work out accordingly, just as I do with blogging. The information or ideas will naturally come to write itself.

This is how it happened when I published my very first novel along with the second one.

The ideas came to me spontaneously and the books wrote themselves and everything was successful in completion and timing.

I have an unpublished manuscript that I had copywritten twenty years ago. I am planning to work on getting this material published next until I get inspired to write and publish more books when they are meant to be.

I know one of the things I was put on this earth to do is write so when the urge hits I will be a willing vessel and participant to comply with continuing to do what I love and enjoy doing.

 

 

I Have A Few Real, Genuine, True Friends❤

 

I am not one to, or one who, ever ran around in a crowd. I was mostly a loner who was particular in who I chose to be around.

I received a happy belated birthday card with a token of money this past week from someone who was determined to show their regard.

They had told me my card was on the way last month before my birthday had arrived.

I told them not to worry, that there is no rush, and to take their time as well as with the other things in their life.

We all may go through periods of not getting to something done or intended to toward a specific time frame for whatever reason.

I also added that anyone can give someone a card or material possession that really means nothing. What really counts is when things come from the heart.

When people care about you, give of themselves- spend quality time talking with you, or being there for you if there is ever a time you may need them, truly believing in you, encouraging you and having your back when a moment calls for it.

People who are like this and do these things because they like, love, or appreciate you- not because they feel they must or should react or respond that way, but because they really want to- shows a true friend or person that is genuinely in one’s corner.

This person I speak of has known me literally for all my life and is a real person.

We even share a lot in common such as writing, having spiritual abilities, and so on.

She is a very smart person too who is on the level just like me.

I was always lucky to have, and be blessed with, certain people in my life.

We are more like family than friends.

 

Through My Eyes 👀

 

I remind myself of the 1978 Faye Dunaway thriller/mystery “The Eyes Of Laura Mars”. It is said that art imitates life.

I have been seeing accurate visions that were confirmed or that came to be since I was a child, whether while awake or in my sleep.

I am not perfect, just a human being. I would not trust everything that is shown as we are to test the spirit.

Although things can also have dual meanings or reflections I know when to keenly sense the difference from within and between from experience.

This past Thursday night, around 10:40pm, I had a vision of a guy whose energy I have been feeling for a while who I will not name.

Usually when I feel guys’ energy in a certain manner it is because they are attracted to me, jealous of me, have animosity toward me, or whatever, and because they are no good.

I always find out that I was correct in my predictions and judgments.

Their energy can linger for as long as their feelings for me last, or for as long as I need to be aware of the circumstances taking place with and around them regarding me and my life.

In the vision that appeared while I laid awake, the guy was completely naked wearing nothing but a pair of socks.

He was in a bedroom.

I am not sure if this bedroom was located inside a hotel or somebody’s home.

A barely dressed female who appeared partially in the nude lay on a bed dazed, with her eyes barely opened about to pass out from a roofie (flunitrazepam) that was slipped in her drink.

As this girl/woman laid in the bed I could see from her slanted-eye view the guy walk across the room past the foot of the bed to observe her state of falling unconscious.

I was projected as the female at first until the vision further played on.

The guy took out his phone- and I could discern every bit of vile energy and negativity within this individual’s actions and intentions. He enjoyed what he was doing- to record and photograph this female he victimized through eventually having sex with her while incapacitated.

There was another guy who appeared inside the room, though I was not able to get a look at him.

The other guy asked with a smirk on his face in a way as to urged the guy on if he wanted to take a turn to sexually take advantage of the girl.

This guy is an awful, terrible, low life piece of shit.

I do not know if this occurrence took place Thursday night, the exact time it was revealed to me, if it happened sometime already within the past, or if will occur soon.

What I picked up from the dream is what he did to that girl is also something he would like to do to me. That is why I was initially portrayed as the girl.

I do not know the entire situation with this female I witnessed in the vision. However, I was feeling this is what this guy does when the opportunity presents itself for him to underhandedly use a form of rape on girls who otherwise refuse to give him the time or day then probably lies about it later by saying the girl was high or something to that effect- though she would have no recollection- then keep video footage and photos for himself as a trophy/souvenir to look back at, privately show other no good associates to, and gloat over. He may have even blackmailed certain girls with the footage leaving them afraid to come forward.

I cannot prove this, yet I know what I saw and felt is true.

Energy does not lie- but people do.

 

 

My Morning Glory

 

I lay in bed not to get up right away during mornings when I do not have to.

Resting my body in comfort in the calm of the room, daylight reflecting through my window.

The sound of birds outside chirping as I also listen to winds blow, raindrops, or whatever it is that may flow in the weather.

 

My Bedtime Story

 

I sleep like a baby and treasure most nights when I get the adequate rest that I need.

Moments of peace and calm are precious.

Having time to release oneself and to contemplate is essential.

The musing and concentration of reverie through meditation is a natural mode to fall into.

I often find, and have found myself, automatically at the helms of involuntary meditation.

Those times when our eyes just close at random to direct us at what is intangibly calling to our attention, seizing us in a moment of unifying with the universe consciously and subconsciously.

Aside from this reflective form of energizing and reprising, near bedtime is also my favorite time to connect spiritually to divine inspirations.

 

Natural Hair Flow In The Grow

 

I do not go to the beauty parlor, I do my own thing. I live as simple as possible, relaxed and comfortable.

My scalp be itching like crazy because my hair is growing.

My hair grows like wildflower just as it did while I was in my twenties- fast and furious, bushy and untamed.

It straightens out more when it is wet and that is how I style it tied back all in the natural without any chemicals.

As all grass really needs is sunlight and water to nurture and to grow from the roots in the soil- I trained my head of healthy growing grass to survive through nature- by watering my strands/scalp, eating nutritiously, and letting the air take rest of the care.

 

Pastimes To Past The Time

 

I have quite a few hobbies that I enjoy and occupy myself with from time to time when I have time or am in the mood.

I learned to crochet at nine or ten years of age. Knitting was too complicated at the time as I preferred to use only one needle to creatively loop yarn.

Crocheting was an activity I enjoyed during my teenage years too.

It is fun coming up with ideas to experiment with different patterns in addition to shopping through arts and craft stores to look over various colors, styles, and textures of yarn.

Very cute and useful household items or homemade gifts tend to result from the inventiveness brought forth by craft.

One, and many have already, can make a professional business out of designing materials made out by hand.

My mother had crocheted me a beautiful baby blanket when I was an infant. My mother also knew how to sow professionally and put together a fantastic, lovely dress she manufactured totally on her own with her sowing machine- she was a woman of multi-talent.

Till this day, I am still fond of crochet. I also love needlepoint stitchery.
