Everybody Loves the Sunshine

Everybody Loves the Sunshine By Roy Ayers

My life, my life, my life, my life
In the sunshine...

Everybody loves the sunshine, sunshine
Everybody loves the sunshine, sunshine
Folk's get down in the sunshine, sunshine
Folk's get brown in the sunshine

Just bee's and thangs and flowers
Just bee's and thangs and flowers
Just bee's and thangs and flowers
Just bee's and thangs and flowers

My life, my life, my life, my life
In the sunshine...

Everybody loves the sunshine, sunshine
Everybody loves the sunshine, sunshine
Folks get down in the sunshine, sunshine
Folks get brown in the sunshine

Feel what I feel, what I feel, what I feel what I'm feelin
In the sunshine
Feel what I feel, what I feel, what I feel, what I'm feelin
In the sunshine
Do what I do what I do what I do what I'm doing
In the sunshine
Do what I do what I do what I do what I'm doing
In the sunshine

Everybody loves the sunshine
Sunshine...

Loving yourself

Do you crave intimacy with another? Do you long for closeness and unconditional love?

If you answered yes then I have another question for you:

Have you been intimate with yourself?

The time has come; get to know yourself, love yourself.

This is something I struggle with.
I am still learning how.

More Self Love Monday

Happy More self love Monday to all of you beautiful queens out there. I know Monday is a difficult day to get through, but here is a little inspiration.  This is some encouragement for all of those who struggle with body image and cutting. So please do me a favor? Have an amazing day queen.

Self Compassion

So today I took a self compassion test.  This test opened my eyes in so many ways.  I knew before I even took the test that I am lacking in the area of self compassion, but I did not realize the extinct of my problem.  The final score can be from 1 to 5, 1 being the lowest score.  I am not ashamed to admit that my final score was 1.21.  This means that I have low self compassion.  Every question was hitting my soul in ways that I wasn't prepared for.  It is funny how the dirty laundry of our inner being don't ever want to come in contact with the light of truth.  I am excited because the first step in becoming a better be is acknowledgment.  I am acknowledging the fact that I have low self compassion.  I realize that I am very hard on myself.  The problems with myself manifests in the way I treat others.  Once I start giving myself more love and compassion I will be able to give it to other people. So I strongly encourage you all to take this self compassion.  Be blessed on your journey inward.

SELF COMPASSION TEST

What I Want in a Man

What I want in a man:

• Intelligent - I need a man who can turn me on with his thoughts.  A brilliant mind makes me want to please.
• Aspirations/Dreams/Goals - a man who wants to go somewhere and be someone in this life.
• Spiritual - a man who believes in a higher power, a man who is tapped into his own soul. a man in search of enlightenment.
• Patience - a man who is calm and who has the strength and patience to deal with me. I have years of hurt and pain built up.  My walls are high. But I promise you if you get through them, it will be worth it.
• Funny/silly - a man who has a sense of humor, very witty, clever, but sweet and sincere. If he can make me laugh, i will be happy.
• Romantic - (so typical right) a man who think's outside of the box when it comes to romance & keeping me on my toes. I appreciate surprise, i appreciate the little things, i appreciate being thought about.  I like being treated.  Be thoughtful. My motto: treat me well & I will treat you better.  Treat me like a queen and I'll give you the world.
• Music - I need a man who loves music. All types. This is a NECESSITY. Music is life. I need a man who I can vibe with.  Just sit back and groove.
• Aggressive - I didn't know which word to use, but I like a man who can take control of me.  If you can put me in my place, I will melt.  If we are arguing, just push me up against a wall, and kiss the shit out of me.
• Honesty - I like someone who can keep it real.
• Sincere - a man who is able to sympathize and empathize with me
• Good Vibes - a man who i can just let go and be myself with.  Someone who I can be vulnerable with.
• moma/family - a man who loves his moma! a man who holds her with the highest regard. And also his family
• Handsome - I need a good looking man. But if you have those qualities listed before. you automatically become attractive.  But being easy on the eyes wont hurt. 
• love - a man who can bring a lot of love to me, because I will have a lot of love for him
• Reciprocity - a man who would always do the same for me. relationships are no one way street. meet me halfway baby.
• Time - Make time for me. Communication is key. I don't care how you do it, just make time for us.

The Right Man

I had a talk with a girl who is also studying abroad with me.  We were talking about life, vocation and most importantly, love.  She told me that she does not believe in soul mates.  She does not believe that there is just one person in the world.  She believes that we can learn how to love someone, and she also believes love is a choice.  I had to disagree with many of her statements.  Maybe I am a hopeless romantic, but I'm sticking to my guns.  There is someone out there for me.  My perfect match, the man who will complete me like no other.  Nobody believes in love anymore.  Nobody believes in fate, and miracles.  But i am determined not to be a bitter black woman who bashes men (even tho that is how I feel many days, i'm working on it).  I refuse to be the woman who hates on everybody else's relationship because she is bitter.  I want to manifest-----wait scratch that. I am manifesting a strong love, worthy of a movie. God will bring me exactly what I want and need.  But I gotta focus on myself and the most high.  I need to become the right woman so that I can find the right man.


Peace, love & light
