One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

on
Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

An ode to Ice Cube, "Today was a good day..."

on

Today was a good day. I woke up to the rain and I smiled. I remembered that Obama secured the nomination last night. I remembered that I have been taking charge of my life, instead of going through the motions. I remembered this past weekend and was reminded that a surprise may be just around the block.

I also remembered that life can be a blissful experience, if you choose that path.

The NBC News commercial says that believing in the potential of a great day makes you get out of bed in the morning. Well, today I believed. While the day wasn’t great, it was damned good. Here’s looking forward to a great tomorrow!
