I Dreamt About Snakes Again Last Night..

I dreamt about snakes again last night...

This isn't the first time. (I did a post at the beginning of the year when this was a recurring dream that I was having.)

Dreaming about snakes can mean that you're dealing with unsettling emotions in your every day life. On the bright side, it can also mean that your life is going through a transformational period.

The snake in my dream brought about feelings of fear, (there are different meanings depending on how you are made to feel/ interactions in the dream) which indicates difficulty facing uncertainty in life.

This seems pretty spot on as I'm at a point in my life where I'm trying to figure a lot of things out. What do I want to do? How am I going to do it? Where do I want to end up? Who will still be around five years from now?

And so on, and so forth.


( SIDE NOTE: I finally got my forward helix piercing. I can't wait until it heals so I can replace the ring with a cute flower stud. )

When Life Gets to Be Too Much, Get on A Plane And Go



 

 

 Recap of my last minute escape to Cali.

When life gets to be too much, get on a plane and go!

I'm so glad that I did. Reunited with my sisters, enjoyed the change of scenery/ atmosphere and came back with a much better outlook.

Kelela x Cut 4 Me

I've been a fan of Kelela ever since she opened up for Solange at the Black Cat a few months ago. This is one of my favorites from her new mixtape, Cut 4 Me.



It's Not Always About You

I was having a conversation with a close friend of mine the other day and she said something that really made me think, so I decided to share it with you all. In discussing a series of events, and people coming into and leaving our lives and trying to determine the reasoning for it all, she said: 

"I do believe that everyone comes into your life for a reason, and serves some kind of purpose.. even if it's something small. But you also have to realize that maybe you were the "someone" that came into their life to make a change. It's not always about you.."

What a gem! We get so caught up in ourselves sometimes that we don't realize that everyone around us has their own issues and things that they are going through and that maybe sometimes we are the stepping stone/ building block/ glue that they needed to get to where they need to be to become a better version of themselves.

I felt a lot better after taking this perspective on and it definitely changed the way I look at certain relationships in my life. 

Happy Sunday!

Blind Rhino @ Art Whino.

I'm obsessed with this venue. Imagine walking into this rainbow colored "house" and finding art everywhere you look from the ceiling to the floor. Now add a DJ, vendors and a stage between two giant lion heads - fun! I will be back, no question.

I love you Celeste Marie.
