Today is a good day to talk about our joys! Talk happiness. The world is sad enough  Without your woe. No path is wholly rough.  ― Ella Wheeler Wilcox Listen below now or on your favorite streaming platform !   Today is a good day to be positive. I am not talking about ignoring our problems or propagating toxic positivity. I am talking about thinking of the good things in life, having a different perspective and practicing gratitude.  I do love that quote from Ella Wheeler Wilcox because she is basically saying yeah life is rough but it’s not only rough. There are moments of joy and happiness that will carve out for ourselves. We have a habit of talking about our woes and pushing our woes. That’s why click bait is so popular because it tugs on our emotions and the more negative the better.  Talking about our problems is our greatest addiction. Break the habit. Talk about our joys. — Rita Schiano I really like to vent. No. I feel like I need to vent sometim...

Oftentimes, there are things we want to do. There are places we want to go. There are goals we want to accomplish that may seem unattainable. Sometimes, when we look at the situation we are in, all those things seem dang near impossible. I get that. How can we dream bigger when we are caught up in just trying to survive, or trying to get through the day or battling health concerns or consumed with worry about what loved ones are going through? Sometimes, it never seems like the right time.  Catalyst All the  reasons we can  breath, light, night, fight, flight, foresight  surging through us, propelling us   forward How do others do it? How do they overcome? How do they make it look easy? First, I think we should acknowledge that regardless of what success we think we see, everyone has their own personal battles, and although they make it look easy, for them it probably was not. Basically, let’s get out of their business and get back into our own because ever...

The Matrix movies are probably my all time favorite sci-fi movies. I was super excited when they announced a reboot, Matrix Resurrection. However, Matrix 4 was mid. Now they want to attempt a Matrix 5. Ugh ... I'm not feeling it. I want to feel it but sometimes well enough needs to be left alone. At this point I don't even remember what Matrix 4 was about. But I do remember giving it a 7 and if they bring back Wonder Man, I may still watch. I'm lying, I'll watch anyway. Are you ready for another Matrix? Matric Resurrection Review 

Bridgerton Season 4 Part 2 Bridgerton Season 4 Part 2 was finally released on Netflix with four more episodes. After binging it, I don’t know how I feel about this season. It definitely did not dethrone Season 2 (Anthony and Kate) as my favorite, but I am not sure where it would land. I have to watch the season again to make that decision. For now, my hierarchy remains the same:  The Viscount Who Loved Me (Season 2, Anthony and Kate). The Duke and I (Season 1, Daphne and Simon). Romancing Mister Bridgerton (Season 3, Colin and Penelope) An Offer from a Gentleman (Season 4, Benedict and Sophie) Listen below now or on your favorite streaming platform ! Anthony and Kate did make an appearance for season 4, but if you blinked, you would have missed them. In part 2, my favorite happenings were Hyacinth, Lady Danbury, and the Queen. It was a cute season but a little disappointing because Araminta seemed to have gotten off light versus how she was treated in the books. She did not catch e...

Release What’s Weighing You Down: Today is a good day to let go of what no longer serves you. Listen below now or on your favorite streaming platform ! It is a good day to let go of what no longer serves you. There are times when we not only get stuck in life, but we can also get stuck on people, things, or ideas that we once held dear but have since lost their luster. Sometimes the reality of a thing no longer aligns with the fantasy we have built in our heads. It is no longer serving us or maybe it never was, and we have been waiting for it to meet our expectations, but it, they, whatever keeps failing us or it has run its course. At some point, we have to recognize when it is time to let go and know that it is okay. Letting go is an important aspect of stress management. Learning to let go is a gateway to peace. Peace of mind and peace of spirit.  Article: How to Let Go of What You Can't Control SUBSCRIBE!  

Dearest Reader… Bridgerton Season 4 Has Us Blushing, Gasping, and Replaying Scenes Listen below now or on your favorite streaming platform ! Bridgerton season 4 is now out on Netflix. It's only the first 4 episodes. The next 4 episodes will air on February 26. This is the story of Benedict and Sophie, and it is a Cinderella affair. Now I already told y'all my favorite is season 2 with Anthony and Kate. I don't believe Anthony and Kate are returning for this season because they opted to go to India with Kate's family, where she will have the baby. So we won’t be seeing them this season, and I don't believe we'll be seeing Daphne this season either. However, I do like that we get to see more Hyacinth. I am excited for her story now because she is showing a little spunk and personality. Again, this story is about Benjamin, and it's a Cinderella-type story where Sophie is being mistreated by her evil stepmother. She finds herself falling in love with Benjamin, b...
