Welcome to my REAL world
This month has been full of obstacles but that won't stop me from acknowledging that it's Mental Health Awareness Month. I'm a little late but better late than not at all! Good day everyone! I hope you are all having a lovely day so far. Did you know that May is recognized as Mental Health [...]

Does anyone else feel like weird things always happen in the mall? The mall can be a recipe for disaster sometimes. There's just so many people all together at once. Anyway, I digress. It was a Saturday afternoon when I decided I needed to buy a new outfit to go out that night. Because we [...]
Having a mental illness is never anything to mess around about. It is a real problem for people you'd least expect. It doesn't matter how rich or poor you may be or what color you are, mental illness does not discriminate. These celebrities are contributing to break the mental health stigma by opening up to [...]
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! 🦃 Each day that I wake is an extreme blessing for me. Life moves fast and within the snap of a finger, anything can happen. So let's all be thankful for the persons and things we do have. Last year today I spent my first half of thanksgiving in St. Josephs Regan [...]
