December 01, 2025 Garden of pain
Every branch of pain, was learned by grief. By betrayal, someone who cheated or never experiencing a mother’s love. The garden of pain was made into a beautiful garden that no one had access to expect myself. Every teardrop was seed that was planted, not out of shame or regret, but learning to rebuild from nothing. Looking at the garden of pain now is a journey that I took that was difficult but beautiful in the end. The metaphor of life that no matter how many autoimmune diseases I have or pain I have to endure, I know the strength that I have. Once that door is closed, it’s forever frozen in the past. No apology or excuse can excuse what I endure and how I choose to move forwards not backwards, while many of you are stuck on my past. Judging my life and mistakes, and still stuck on a version of myself that no longer exists. Maybe you should focus on yourself and your mistakes. I learned my lessons and grew from it. Never again would allow that pain to exist.

December 01, 2025 Sails are torn
Ruin my life, walking away was the hardest decision of my life. No relationship or connection just distant, once someone you knew is now a stranger. A choice never easily made, missing the memories that will never be the same. Never be afraid to live your life and be truthful. Use your heart to show that you care. Never be afraid to grow. Growing is your biggest sign of success, not by what you have. You are worth it, even when you are disowned by your own family members. You made something of yourself and no one can take credit for that. You got yourself where you are today, as well as ones who supported you and never left you. You didn’t forget where it all started, and who was there during your darkest of times. Sails are torn, we’re glued together after all the years of healing. Opening your heart that was once was broken, learned to trust again. How far I’ll go, if my sails go in the direction of the wind. I’ll let it guide me.

December 01, 2025 The anchor
ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia, Endomentrosis, the list goes on, there days I run out of faith. Many battles I didn’t choose, I was given. Disappearing was what I did best, no replying and being distant was what I did best. The holidays became a painful part of my life. Things I once enjoyed, I didn’t enjoy anymore. The toughest part was that no one understood. Either being dizzy, cold or hot or hot or cold, being stiff all over or in a lot of pain, many thought it was for show or sympathy when I been dealing with this for years. The grief of not only losing who I use to be and what I could use to do, also loosing the ones close to you was life changing. Experiencing many deaths that you never saw coming, your whole world flipped upside down. “It is what it is” If you don’t have haters then you aren’t doing something right. The anchor was going within in me to anchor myself with the chaos and many battles I faced. The survivor of strength, a warrior and a Phoenix.

November 30, 2025 Great War
Surviving the Great War was realizing that they were playing with fire. Somewhere in the haze I’ve sensed I have been betrayed. Breaking someone’s confidentiality to only act like the victim . You knew what you were doing, but you didn’t think I would expose you. There is no place to hide but the bed you created of lies. Don’t show up or act like I forgot. I don’t forget. You just want this to go away, but it won’t. I survived the Great War while you are in misery. What you did backfired on you. Not only did you destroy your reputation and credibility, I heard since I left that company is in pieces. Not my problem, maybe you should have listened to my warning but I’m not the one who is suffering. It’s always interesting how when I walk away everything breaks into pieces. All this time I was the one holding everything together. You will never find another person like me and many of you are learning that the hard way.

November 30, 2025 Butterfly
Living with Fibromyalgia, is like being hot and cold at the same time, while being aggravated by the pain. Fibromyalgia is consider as an autoimmune disease. The pain can be like needles, fire, ants to electric shocks at any point in the body. Being so stiff you fill like you are carrying bricks when you walk. A tiredness that never goes, even eight hours isn’t enough. Fibromyalgia can cause many other issues as well. Also I have CPS(Central Pain Syndrome), where my body no longer knows how to process pain, that’s why I’m always in excruciating pain. Some seasons are worse then others, like summer and winter are worse when it comes to the pain, then with the rain and cold temperatures. There really isn’t a break from not having pain. Fibromyalgia can happen from many factors but two of them is trauma and if you had a serious accident, like an injury to your back. Which I fit all the criteria. Doing research, butterflies are a symbol of being fragile but a rebirth. To live with a condition a disease a new way of life, while looking vibrant from all the changes of life.

November 30, 2025 August
August is one of the most difficult months for me, my grandfather passed away August 23rd, 2019. From the start of August and now it’s almost the end of August. August slipped away without a hello or goodbye. Twenty-three was significant for me because I lost my grandfather on the twenty-third, but when I turned twenty-three I lost my grandmother and a close friend as well. Twenty-three will be forever a memory to me, while August will be a month I will cherish, just like April. The twenty-four and twenty-eight will be two days I cherish as well. It’s interesting how numbers from before give you another meaning in life. The twenty-eighth of February my husband and I got married, The twenty-eighth of April I lost a close friend of mine. The twenty-third of January is my birthday, but the twenty-third of August is when I lost my grandfather. Like January twenty-fifth is my grandfather's birthday and I am twenty-five years old. It’s cool how numbers can have heartbreaking events happen on those days, then years later have a whole new meaning.

November 30, 2025 Endless February
Being stuck in February, because so much happened in the last three years, that happened in February. Am I allowed to leave or am I forever stuck in February? The last time I saw my grandma was February 20th. The last time I spoke to my mom and we went our own separate way was February 18th. Then my husband and I got married February 28th. All of this happened in the same year. The year of 2022, the year of pain not just mentally but physically. April 24th my next door neighbor passed away and April 28th my grandmother passed away in 2022. Then finding out Dec 25th of 2022, I had Abdominal Endometriosis. A year I wanted to forget but would remember. Endless February being stuck and having no energy to move forward. I just wanted to disappear. I thought the year of 2023 or 2024 would be better but it was the exact opposite.

November 30, 2025 Not Kind
Don’t act like your kind, I don’t care if you’re the Superintendent or not you don’t disrespect me. I did have the highest GPA in my class and was offered the valedictorian but I turned it down. Not only were you doing college during your senior year, you were taking care of your grandparents. My grandfather was sick and I didn’t think he was going to make it. Telling me this is once in a lifetime opportunity, that you may never get it again and you should reconsider your decision. No, my grandfather means more to me than a title, plus I will get it again. Your arrogant attitude and rude remarks wouldn’t be taking lightly. There is no back peddling now or taking back what you said. You said it and now you will have to live with it. I had many try to fail me or tell me I would never make it. For only for them to not only lose their license but to not be able to teach again. I’m not someone who forgets or who should be messed with. Christmas was the last holiday with my grandfather before he passed away on August 23rd, 2019. You only act kind to cover your narcissistic ways. It didn’t work now did it?

November 30, 2025 Authentic
I have learned over the years to take the time to release my story, I am in no rush. I am not perfect and do take accountability when I need to and I do stand up for myself when I need to. I am not perfect, but I always try to be a better person than who I was yesterday. I will stand up with the truth and be honest. Destroying people lives with lies and gossiping about them behind their back will eventually catch up with you. There isn’t much authenticity in this world. It’s either being fake or using other people to get where you want to be. I would rather be real and honest. Many don’t like me and that’s okay. I know my light shines bright. I don’t put with people’s drama. If you created it and can’t handle the fact I stand on business, then you play the victim. You never grew up. You just love being petty and playing the victim. It’s quite sad. I don’t need to tell my side of the story, but I do choose to share what I have learned along the way to help others .

November 30, 2025 High Heels
The bravest soldier is the one who has no one to go to. High heels is the courage to walk alone. No matter how painful it was, there was no choice but to only walk alone. I would rather figure it out on my own, than to ask for help. Anytime I would ask for help it would either be I had to do something in return or there was a motive behind it. High heels isn’t just a symbol of courage, it’s symbol of being brave. Walking through the fire with no regrets or doubts left to give. The reality of home is place where you can no longer return to. You never ran in a pack, you weren’t meant to walk alone. No wonder why no one understands why you are quiet and don’t put up with anyone’s shit. You are strong, given the toughest of battles and still somehow you survived.
