I had a really great day today well yesterday since it is now 3am.
I had lunch with a homie that I haven’t seen in 2 years!!! It felt like we had just spoken yesterday. We talk about personal things, business things, and everything in between and it was great. (The DIVAS are back muhfuggas!!!)
I am the type of person to admit my faults apologize when needed and get things in order when they seem to be a bit off.
I really appreciate those that have been there for me no matter what and understand as women, as human beings; we all go thru alot of things in life that cause us to pull away.
I am the first person to admit that I can be stand offish at times. I like to view things from a different perspective. I know that this comes from the fact that I don’t trust many people and have been hurt several times by “friends”. I also know that it isn’t fair to make people suffer for others wrong doings but eh life isn’t fair at all, so deal with it!
I have learned to trust my instinct, keep my mouth shut when upset and only voice my anger to myself or in writing because I can’t betray myself. I can’t misconstrue my own words and I can’t be angry if someone has the audacity to go back and tell someone that I was pissed and said a few things in my time of anger if I keep my mouth closed. So for that I apologize to those who may have felt the wrath of my anger thru the words of others. There are 3 sides to every story and only 1 truth. I will never defend myself against anyone that isn’t worth being “friends” with. Real friends know their real friends and can decipher bullshit from the truth.
Please know that I know who my ride or dies are and I know who the users are…you’re not that smart! (SMFH)
Anywho….my brunch/meeting/girl talk date was grandtabulous and brings me further along my journey.
The second meeting that I had today was also very wonderful. I met two young women, Quiana and Erin, who have decided to start their own Non-Profit organization called “The Jelly Bean Foundation”.
I was asked to be apart of their board and help plan and execute fundraiser, events, etc.
I am very excited to embark on this endeavor and will be posting more information about the foundation soon.
I will close with my favorite quote: “Always remember to be a First Rate version of YOURSELF; Instead of a Second Rate version of SOMEONE ELSE.”-Judy Garland
I think I will always close with that quote. Why not it’s my blog!
Real friends don’t come into your life for a season they last a lifetime. Some bonds that are made stand the test of time and circumstance. Ours is one of those bonds.
With that said, know that I admire you, respect you, love and am proud of you everyday, as a woman, mother, wife and business owner.
This is what true friendship is about…I’m ya ride die and the best part is that I know the feeling is mutual.
Love ya ma… And the ORIGINAL Thick Divas of O-H-10 are back in the buildin!
Spoken like a true Diva/Friend
