Freely Observing
I have practiced living freely lately. What does it mean to live freely? I notice that most people think of it in terms of financial stability. Being able to buy whatever you like and go wherever you like because you have all of the money you’ve ever dreamed of is what those in this age consider freedom. This is fair, but I am happier than ever while being far from my financial goals. So, what do I mean exactly? When I say FREELY, I mean living, breathing, walking around with acknowledgement of mental blocks that threaten to stop me from doing what I want, whatever it maybe. Fear is an…

Yeah baby, I like it RAW!
All RAW everything! At least for the next two weeks… I’m currently experiencing my sixth day of the twenty day HERBAL cleanse I’m doing which requires that I adopt an all raw food diet. Yup! This means that I am not consuming anything that has been processed with sugar and artificial flavors and other chemicals that we know make up the foods we consume regularly. No dairy products, or anything of animal origin has entered me since this past Monday! Once again, I’m amazed by the timing of this particular adventure because I’ve been interested in improving my diet, but I always thought it would be too expensive to start…

To the (Young) Women and the Lovers
This month has been amazing, thus far! I’m inspired both with my upcoming raw food exploration and just by the people I’ve been coming across in life daily. Isn’t that the best? Music continues to grow new roots and I’m excited to challenge myself and see what I can really do with it. It’s now manifesting itself in even more corners of my reality, like at work (I just started in an office and discovered there’s actually a studio in the back! haha Awesome, right?). I decided to let go of all of the negative figures in my life as well. I have leaned towards excuses to keep those causing…

Words from my heart as translated by my souL
What a life! I’ve been thinking about updating every day, but my reality just took a few spins over the past month. I’ve been taking everything in and deciding how to work with all I’ve been given. 2014 is really an exciting year already! I felt that now is the perfect time to do some spilling into this digital universe I have here. While things are looking unexpectedly amazing in my work life, my love life blows. I admit to being fresh out of the pan with this post! Days like these, when it’s pouring rain and there’s nothing to do but hang inside with my family and friends, recording…

My Impression of Self-Expression
There exists a little pattern that I’ve payed special attention to lately. I did not adopt a New Years Resolution until I was asked about it during a party at my cousin’s house this past New Years Eve. I instantly decided to use what had been happening in my life as the answer and I’ve already gathered something from it over the course of this month. Each year brings something significant across my path that forces me to open myself up a bit more, thus growing bit by bit. There is always a new challenge, a new phase of growth I find myself stepping into. This idea brings me to…

Changes and Doctors
Last night, a good friend and I headed to Low End Theory to see some DJ’s and the AMAZING Shafiq Husayn do a set. Low End is an electronic hip hop event that takes place at the Airliner every Wednesday night. Last year I witnessed awesome talent there, including Zeroh and The Internet! If you’re ever in downtown Los Angeles, on a Wednesday, I highly recommend it. The beers are also cheap. After waking up fairly hungover, my mind was on nothing but today’s appointment with my new doctor. Actually, for a bit my mind was on some new music my friend just put out, as well as a new…

Xmas In Vegas
I spent a few days in Las Vegas this past weekend and it definitely didn’t turn out as I expected it to. The last time I went, the experience changed my life and it only changed my life because I changed the way I looked at life afterward. I love Vegas simply for the energy! You can spend the evening just walking the strip with a glass of wine or some whiskey and have the greatest experience talking to people and vibing. Everyone seems a bit more free and willing to let go and socialize. Nothing is forced. It would be a cool place to live, I think. So, of…

From Me to Me, for you
Tonight I thought to go through some of my phone notes from this year to find a few lines that fit with a theme I am focused on as of late. I ended up reading through all of the memos and realized a lot of the random lines/reminders I type into there are, um, golden as hell! I wanted to keep these private until they are complete, but why wait, really?. Don’t look into my eyes Look out through ’em and I’ll show you what it’s like to be a woman Reality is heavy. Every moment’s a memory in an instant. What’s life, what’s light for you? Like seeing a…

☾l★rity SpeaK
Ah! Last week was rather rough on me, emotionally anyway. Besides the quiet moments to myself, which would translate to a cloud of images and words that felt like a haunting on my brain and a literal lash to my chest, I actually had a lot of fun. I feel as if I’m reconnecting with those who reciprocate the energy that I give. It’s beautiful and too rare! There’s nothing sweeter than to be reminded that you are adored while you feel…rejected. I lose sight of this too often in my tendency to drift off into my loneliness. We are all alone in our unique experiences, but so is everyone!…
