Snippets of me... Jamaica

     It's morning here. I don't have an idea of what time it is right now. At home I have a built in alarm clock that normally wakes me up everyday at 3 am. The sun here has not risen yet. The sky is dark blue right now. It looks as if could still be night time. The view though from my patio is exquisite. The panoramic view of Jamaica's beach and palm trees are staring boldly in my face, with not enough words for me to explain this utterly beautiful scenery!
     Sitting here in the chair with my gown, robe, and slippers on, lounging with my feet propped up on the other chair. The tropical birds sound different. They don't chirp and sound like the birds in California. They sound exotic. I inhale the warm humid air. It smells like ocean water. So far since I've been sitting out here I have only seen employees walking around the premises making preparations to the resort. It seems like they're working, maintaining the resort's upkeep, so it continues to remain immaculate for the residents staying here.
     I can definitely see myself making this an annual vacation spot. For anyone that has not been to Jamaica, I recommend every one should go at least one time in their life. Not because it's a beautiful amazing place to vacation, but to have the experience under their belt. There's so much knowledge, history, and culture in Jamaica. Everyone seems to have a genuine soul here, I mean everyone.
     The plane ride here was long. I felt anxious inside, but humble. I feel that every one I came encounter with prior to my arrival here, was merely preparation and a part of God's plan. I'm here in Jamaica because I'm supposed to be here. God would't have had it any other way, or at least that's how I feel about my presence here. Everything in life happens for a reason. I've met some pretty amazing people on my journey here so far.
     I feel good all over. I've been smoking by myself, reflecting, and writing since I've been out here on the patio. With each exhale that follows my inhale, I like to think that I'm blowing out all of yesterday's bullshit. There is no need to hold on to life's problems, shit blow them out and breathe. I wish that I could apply that advice to my life when I'm at home. Breath and live your life the way that God has intended for you to live. I'm still learning, but with each experience, I've grown. I'm still growing. I'm blowing out the negativity that was never meant to enter my body in the first place. During my period of growth, my life is going through a metamorphosis. I am a caterpillar forming into a butterfly.
     With my current fascination of this beautiful view, my love for this peaceful moment, I can't think of any troubles I may be having back home. I left them at home in California.
     The sky is finally lighting up. The sun is slowly rising on the ocean's water. I feel a sense of calmness here. The reflection of the sun is orange on top of the blue water. My view is mesmerizing. I'm in tropical bliss. The clouds float by, each with it's own unique shape and size. Although it's brighter outside, I still don't know what time it is. Hell, I don't know what my face is looking like either. I didn't wash off my mascara and eyeliner before I went to sleep. Last night my main goal was getting under the covers and successfully closing my eyes.
     I'm not sure what plans we have in store for today because we barely touched down yesterday evening. All that I know is I am determined to make the best of this experience. So far I am loving it here. So with that being said enjoy every moment in life whether it is good or bad. Learn from each experience and continue to grow. Step out on faith and remain optimistic. Life is not always gonna be easy however I
am focused and determined to lead a joyous life. These are snippets of me... Ms. Johnson's universe while in Jamaica.

Toxic Relationships

We often get in toxic relationships with family, friends, and significant others that we are not always aware of. After reading this confirms signs of being in a toxic relationship. They're so unhealthy! We may misconstrue the toxic behavior from our loved one(s) as love received from them, yet at times we ignore that it's unhealthy for us. As it states that it is ok to love from a distance. I believe that it's what a lot of us may need to do to gain a healthy happy life for ourselves!

I love shoes!

A lot of the time I want to be comfortable yet feel cute at the same time. I love wedges because they provide lots of stability for novice heel wearers.

Lesson's learned by chance

This past week for me was one of the hardest weeks that I've had in a while. I can't quite pin point though why my thoughts, job, home, children and everything else overwhelmed me. My emotions were all over the place. I wanted to feel happy, yet daily trials consumed my mind, body and soul.
This past week was a reaffirmation of where I stand with certain individuals in my life. I didn't understand within myself why I was under the impression that things were going to be different though. I guess I was in denial about my past, ignoring my present and afraid of what's to come in my future. Clearly that was just the enemy playing with my mind.
As I begin a new week I was able to recapture my past events, evaluate where I truly stand , and move forward. I can't continue to dwell negatively on what's been going wrong. I went through a lot this past week, however I am aware that hard times shouldn't hinder my progress to move forward and proceed with with what God has in store for my future.
I am now taking more time for myself. I have begun assessing what I need to continue to do in order to to reach a few goals that  have set for myself. After doing that, I started to feel a sense of freedom, as if a burden was lifted from my shoulders. I've decided to keep being the best person that I can be by remaining positive, humble and putting forth an effort at all times. My grind can't stop because I've experienced a few bad days last week.
In conclusion...I can't allow the negative impact of others to be the reason I don't follow my heart or dreams. I have children that need me, motivate, and inspire me. I'm a strong woman and no one can take that from me.
