CANCER…WHAT A HEARTACHE !
It’s been five months since my mom passed away, and the pain feels fresh. Grieving is unpredictable; some days are filled with happiness, while others pull me into sorrow and guilt. I often reflect on my mom’s independence, which both inspired me and masked her struggles. I feel fortunate to have been there for her…
I AM PROUD TODAY
I AM PROUD OF MYSELF I am proud of myself. Indeed I am. When was the last time you said that to yourself? Out loud, in front of a mirror. When giving yourself that little pep talk before an interview, a new task, an exam, or afterward? We tend to expect others to be proud…
I HIT A WALL !
A couple of months ago, something terrible happened. Even though I never spoke of it, the thought of it never left my mind. I’m the type of person who overthinks things before I voice them. I have a Ph.D. cum laude (with honors) in the ”Art of Overthinking”. Making up scenarios, planning arguments, and having…
I SAW THE SIGN !
Do you often find yourself having deja-vus? Or feel like you have been in a place before even though you know 100% there is no way that you could’ve been? What about dreams? Ever had these weird dreams that felt like a warning yet you’re not sure how to interpret them? Or you’re not sure…

I grew up speaking Haitian Creole, French and Spanish. Mexican telenovelas were great teachers, it was the…
LET’S TALK ABOUT THE N-WORD
At first, I did not want to express my opinion on this matter, but I was chatting with my friend Lynou and I thought I should share some insights, it concerns me too so why not? So let’s talk about the N-word. Just like I would not use the B-word when talking to a female…
THE DATING GAMES…
OUUFFF … How do I start ??? First of all, I am no pro since I never really went on a date until I was 25. No, the secret meetings after church or school night do not count. So as I was saying, no dating until I was 25. Do you find that weird? I’m…
Slipping through my fingers!
This is the title of my favorite song from the Mamma Mia movie…YES, I AM a HUGE fan of musical movies but this is not what it’s about right now. Wondering why I choose that title? Well because it’s the truth, everything slips through my fingers. My phone, my card, my steering wheel, my books,…
BAGGAGE CLAIM (in Ghost Town)
Have you ever heard people say that you go through life carrying your cross or your own baggage?
