Today I'm constantly reading through emails, emails, and more emails. When will they stop? I had to remember that I'm working a job and I should be grateful to be reading all these emails. It's the little things that I have to look at and remind myself to remain humble and be thankful for what I have and what I'm currently doing....
My mind is all over the place because I have a project on my mind (not for corporate). This is more of a personal goal of mine that I'm trying to execute. Baby steps I tell ya, baby steps. It's harder than I thought it would be but everything isn't always going to be a easy. Thankfully, I have supporters and people who can encourage me. Just when you think that you are ultimately alone, there is someone who will be there...I smile now more than ever knowing I have support. I can't wait to share this project with you all on a larger scale. The preparation stage is the hardest. I want to make sure everything is solid before I share. Just know this girl with BROWN SKIN has a BIG DREAM coming soon....
-BROWN SKIN. BIG DREAMS.
Brown Skin. Big Dreams is my personal blog of events, thoughts, feelings, and my life. I want to share personal stories or stories from others as we travel through the journey of life. I also plan to introduce new things, people, or happenings to inform others that life isnt just in one location. ITS EVERYWHERE!! The name Brown Skin, Big Dreams came from a conversation that I had with a friend about personal life goals and we are living it with our beautiful BROWN SKIN.

Where have I been?!.....
This blogging thing has soooo lost me LOL. Once life takes a grab of you, there isn't enough time in day. Well, where should I start? I'm in a new place (season) once again in my life, and I MUST say that it has been GREAT!! I'm in a new job, new love, and continued grace and mercy. What's funny is that I don't blog much on my personal site because I'm currently blogging, tweeting, and posting on Facebook for my job. Fab right? Not bad of a job at ALL....Oh yeah, I did my first guest fashion blog post "Lights, Camera, SHOP" for a new boutique in Grand Rapids called "Sydney's Boutique". It's a very cool boutique and its right in the heart of the city. Check out my guest post at www.sydneysboutiquegr.com and also the website. Owner, Kristian Grant, a native of GR and MSU Alum has something great for US ladies....Keep your eyes and ears open.

Beyonce' "Party"
Just Sharing a lil fun music!! Enjoy
MOVE.IN.SILENCE.
........it comes in many forms and is always lookng for something to attach itself to. It looks at people around them and it sees their happiness. It doesn't accept not being the center of attention. It talks rampedly around ears from one ear to the next. It doesn't give the option of brushing your teeth first earlier in the morning because it has to get out to start the day. It causes fear of the unknown because it doesn't know what to expect next. This very same thing can cause strife in friendships, relationships, partnerships, businesses, etc. It moves just like a snake waiting to attach its prey with venon. Some call is jealousy but I call it HATE/HATERS. This type of hate actually makes me laugh because it is SO unnessary. I look at what it does and how it comes and SMH (shake my head). Why use so much energy hating someone OR hating on someone? The same energy used can be used to fuel fire for success.
A thought came to me about Hate/Haters is: MOVE.IN.SILENCE. Silence is the best way to deal with it. You don't have to approach that person or situation, write a note, or make an announcement. When you decide to MOVE.IN.SILENCE it kills them even more. Your positive light and energy will illumniate so bright that they have no choice but to move to its next victim. Besides that as long as you have GOD on your side, your enemies don't stand a chance. ("When a man's ways are pleasing to Lord, he makes even his enemies at peace with him" Psalms 16:7). Another quote that came to me when thinking about this is "Always be kind and humble because you'll never know who will have to give you your last cup of water"...I'll let that marinate on ya'll a bit....LOL.
These are my thoughts for today....What are your comments/please share.

BE. BLACK. LOVE.
I'm blogging via iPhone so bare with me...First, how is everyone?? It's been quite some time since I blogged. Yes, know you've missed me but you know how it is when you have a million things going on?! Well I'm back and ready to blog and share with you all again. Today a thought came to me about "BLACK LOVE". It started from the infamous "rumor" of Will and Jada Smith's supposedly separation. The blogs, Facebook statutes, and Tweets were going out of control. Some were saying that "if Will and Jada have split, there's no hope for Black Love". Excuse me?! theyre reportedly swingers anway..was my initial response to reading that statement. What about Mr. President and First Lady Obama? The are doing well. My second response to myself was WE make "Black Love".
When I refer to "We", I mean that all of us can create our own Black Love. We don't need one popular couple to define an entire group of people. Many of us have had at least one example of Black Love and if not, it's time to BE the example ourselves. I believe that we can create or own examples of what we want to be, how we want to look, and share with others.
So today I challenge you to BE BLACK LOVE and make the change WE need to see.

Communication Killed Assumption Excerpt
This is a little excerpt from an article I read online called "Communication Killed Assumption" by Enitan Bereola II. I'm SO in love with this author!! He has an AWESOME website. I'm glad I stumbled across it via Twitter. Here is the excerpt below:
"Text messaging has been arrested in the attempted murder of effective communication. Text tried to kill real conversation. If all he does is send you words over a mobile device, it isn’t a real relationship. Oral communication is an intimate act so if a man goes as far as reaching out to pick up a phone and call or wants to talk a lady in person, he’s definitely interested. Now back to your program already in progress."
SPEAKS so much about male and female communication these days...Let's all work on this. Check out his website at http://www.bereolaesque-online.com/
