The Intro

Wow...
This is the one-word that continues to run through my head right now; just wow. I can not believe I am sitting here writing  (typing) this blog right now. I have for a long time toyed around with the idea of starting a blog, and I will expand on why it took me so long in another post on another day. This is just my introduction post ... Hello, internets I am here. The name of my blog Fearfully & Wonderfully Made is derived from my one of my favorite scriptures in the Bible  Psalm 139:14 "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well".  God made no mistake when creating each and every one of us; I know when we think of this scripture we thing more towards physical stand point. When I think of this scripture I try to think of also the mental standpoint, about the uniqueness of my brain. How my and words are known by my heavenly Father before I even speak them from my mouth. So this blog is to me my way of coming out of my shell, speaking up, and casting down self-doubt; showing that even my thoughts are beautiful and they matter too.  This is all very new to me, and I will try to be as transparent as possible in my post. I am just a daughter, a sister, a niece, an auntie, a friend and most of the daughter of a King; walk with me as I walk this road with him.

Alone at the Altar

This Saturday I was supposed to be getting married ... yes please let that sink in. Let's skip the fluff this evening and get right into it; this upcoming Saturday on the twenty-third day of the ninth month of the year of two thousand seventeen I was supposed to be walking down the aisle saying "I Do".  For some odd reason, I have always said my husband will be a Marine. There was just something about those Marine Corpsmen that I fancied God Bless America! I had dated a Marine in the past but this time it seemed like this was the one. I guess you can say I had a type tall, dark and decorated this would be my husband. I did everything I thought was supposed to do we found a place I made a home, I cooked, I cleaned, I tried to always keep myself up; stay sexy, stay beautiful, what could I do to keep him intrigued? was always a thought in the back of my head. I basically manipulated my life into a cookie cutter image of what I found to be perfect. Wow, a guy that loves

Have you ever been in a place where you feel like you have been pulled every which way? Everyone connected to you just needs something; you look at your phone there’s a text “hey can you do me a favor?”, answer your phone “I need help”, reading your email “can you meet this deadline for this special project?” from home to work; and everything in between is pulling you in different directions. It is so easy to say yes, I understand you don’t want to let anyone down, or offend anyone so you give a yes as an autopiloted response. I am going to be transparent with you all personally I have been that person that will run myself into the ground going out of my way to do someone a favor. I used to think that I was just and nice person, a giver and that is true I am a nice person I am a giver but I was also a people pleaser. I  was always trying to be someone's point guard, quarterback, or superhero.  People-pleasing is associated with a personality trait known as sociotropy, yes y’all t

Don’t Be That Person

Have you ever had a friend that was not excited about your success? This friend is fine when you are on the same level, but the moment you get a little bit ahead there becomes tension? Do you notice everyone else clapping but them? Maybe it was a big promotion or a major raise. Perhaps it was a brag-worthy new job maybe you launched an awesome side hustle, and this person is just not as excited for you as everyone else. Seriously what is up with that? We commonly use the phrase crabs in a barrel, but it is known as crab mentality or crab theory. Crab mentality is a thought process that says, “If I can’t have it, neither can you”. When you put live crabs in a barrel it has been found that it is very easy for one crab to escape, but that crabs’ efforts are undermined by others which leads to the crab’s overall demise collectively.  Human behavior in certain ways can mimic the crab mentality; in group settings, members of a group will (sometimes) attempt to diminish the progress of any me
