Welcome Speech

I am truly blessed and thankful to welcome in my 43rd year in this world. At my 40th birthday party, if you told me the events that would follow over the next three years. I would have continued to dance, drink my Grand Mariner and take selfies, thinking “this fool is drunk!”
#judgeyourmomma. In the last year, I stopped drinking and social events are chosen wisely. The ultimate shocker is I’m a Muslim and a month ago became a wife (well a work in progress wife, Lol). #nofilter All these life changing events has left me spiritual, mental and physically free and at peace.

*Disclaimer: My life changing events will not be your life changing events. I live in a judgmental-free zone. #carryon

I think discipline is what shapes the changes in our lives, like lack of discipline can have you looking a world wind of casualties.

Sometimes in life we have to stop trying to find happiness and just remove things out of our life that is not bringing us happiness. You will hear people say “Oh, she changed”, your response should be “Isn’t that the plan called ‘Life’ ”. You will lose people but they left to make room for the people that will understand, embrace and appreciate your growth. Life isn’t about being perfect, it’s about being happy in your imperfect world.

I didn’t do anything spectacular in my life for these events to occur, well I guest I did. I took a deep breath, listened to all the noise in my life and I started to remove soundtracks out of my life. I didn’t scream it to the world, I just removed the noisy tracks. I didn’t complain about what people weren’t doing for me, I just removed the noisy tracks. I didn’t remind people of my friendship, I just removed the noisy tracks. The one thing you will discover while reinventing your soundtrack, tracks (people, places and things) that is supposed to be in your soundtrack will be right there waiting to be added to the next chapter of your movie.

 I love the art of engaging with people, but people don’t dictate the way I dance in my life. A friendship shouldn’t be defined by a person buying into your success or throwing away the manuscript for their story to make your story better.

When you look at your life, if you are not growing you need to re-evaluate your steps. Your growth isn’t determined by the money you make, it’s determined by how happy you are with your life choices.

If you are in my circle, you probably heard me say this a few times and I will continue to say it; Allah (God) is the best of planners when you allow him to be the planner. If things are not right in your inner life (not the life you portray on social media) maybe it’s time to get out of the driver seat. You can’t say “I love God” but you don’t trust him to create the life that is right for
