Reflecting While In Mexico

It's been a week since I've been back from one of the best trips that I have ever been to with my mother, sister, boyfriend and my sister's boyfriend to Cancun, Mexico. As I prepared to go on this trip I wanted to do a lot of thinking and put things into perspective so when I get back to NY I can do everything that my heart desires. Life is a journey and at times things happen that makes you question, Why Me? Or will it ever work out in my favor? 

Don't get me wrong Iam content with my life, I can honestly say that I am happy. I've been through a lot in my life but right now at this very moment, I am exactly who I want to be and that right there is a lot due to once living my life not being myself at all and the great thing about being who I am, Iam also giving myself room to grow. Each and everyday we have the opportunity to become better and improve who we are, so why give up that opportunity? 

You may not be where you want to be in life but you can't give up. You have to keep moving no matter how hard it gets. I know when things isn't working in your favor, it can be frustrating. One thing that keeps me going no matter what is PRAYER. As I mentioned before in previous posts, PRAYER HEALS ALL! God wouldn't put you in any situations that he knew you couldn't overcome, it's a reason why he put you there just have faith in him and know that better and bigger things it's on it's way for you. 

I reflected a lot about where I want to be in my life, I know what I want to accomplish but at times I doubt myself. I have an amazing brand which I know God put in my life as my ultimate blessings. Here is an example, I went through hell and back which I talk about a lot and I used to always ask God, Why must I go through all the bullshit that Iam going through? But it was clear to me that I went through the things I went  through not only to become who I was meant to be but to help others in the process. Confidence Is You literally saved my life, this is why I have to keep going and never give up on it because I know I have thousands of more people that I can help with as in finding  their confidence, loving themselves and become exactly who they want to be and not being afraid to do so. 



know Iam capable of accomplishing all of my dreams and goals and doing exactly what makes me happy. I don't know why at times we doubt ourselves of course we are all afraid of failing but with every ending, it comes a new beginning. If we don't try, we will never succeed. I needed to clear my mind, put things into perspective  and tell myself that the time is now, tomorrow isn't promise to anyone. The night before I left to go on my trip, I received the worst phone call ever, a phone call I never wanted to receive, a piece of my heart, someone I loved passed away. I never imagined that I would lose my friend of 16 years but just like that at 29 years old, she passed away. It was as if she told me as I was on my trip "Live your life  and do what makes you happy". 


This was someone that wasn't afraid of anything and didn't care about anyone opinion, she did as she pleased and what made her happy. So I can't continue living this life and not being who I am destined/meant to be as well as not doing what makes me happy or not going for everything that I want. I want to live a life that I want and I deserve without any regrets. I want to be a better person not only for myself but for my love ones as well. I want to be able to do everything I desire to do and not being afraid to do so. Life is a roller coaster and no matter what we must enjoy the ride. A roller coaster never stops, it always keeps going so keep in mind no matter what it is that you are going through, YOU HAVE TO KEEP GOING!!! 
 
(My Family & I stayed at the Hyatt Zilara in Cancun, I must say it was worth it. I gave this resort 5 stars, I would definitely go back there in the near future.)
