First and foremost, I need to stop making grammatical errors. That is not even my steelo.
I read my previous post and it was chock filled with errors. Check....then double check Nia. You know better.
So......I'm in New York.
For good.
This feels amazing and surreal and encouraging. Being here is just going to be good for me. Struggles and all. I have this overwhelming sense of calm, yet I'm eager and hungry and excited to see what I am really capable of. I can do this. I can so do this.
I'm happy. Regardless of what I do and don't have. I'm growing as a person. I need to continue to learn life lessons. Remember these lessons. Continue to enlighten. It's bringing me closer to enlightenment. Life is really about to start. Hell yes!!!!
Maybe it's the excitement. Or the uncertainty. Life is really happening and I'm taking every advantage of it. Adventure time!
Love yourself always.
Be happy.
Nia.
P.S. Thank you Taryn. Really. For continuously motivating me to change my life. For continuing to change my life. <3

How long has it been??
I have literally been in my own little world for so long, I have managed to neglect the only place that kept me sane.
I'm pretty sure that no one reads my blog. Shit, I don't even write on the damn thing anymore. But that needs to change. I have a lot of projects going on so these will definitely help me keep everything together in one spot. I have notes on napkins, in my iPad, in my notebook, in my calendar, and online. Blah!! TOO damn much.
Random thought: I really want to go to Red Lobster. They are having ENDless Shrimp!!! Hell yeah!!!!!
So....
At the moment....
- Start sketching for Queen or Concubine. Too damn excited to be designing. This is going to be amazing!
- Continue research for community garden. Take measurements for indoor and outdoor test gardens. Continue to research hydrophonic options.
- Continue business plan for community garden. Begin business plan for Purpose Management. Learn this software.
- Stay focused on your homework! Must get an A this term.
- Start recruiting for As I Am. Confirm number of products being tested (last count: 4). How are they planning to change the Curling Jelly?
- Discuss SMSi project with Deej and Sandy. Explore experiental strategies being used. How can these be adapted for gift bags? Consumer outreach is main objective of project. Develop a relationship with these respondents. Quaker meeting? That's all I can think of right now.
Oh....
- Continue job search. Put yourself out there. You are doing well. Continue to maintain positive relationships with connects.
Follow-Up....that's what you do!
Finally,
Nia.

Game
I have all types of game, but I need to become a better executer and closer. Clearly I've been watching a lot of basketball lately. Lol.
______________________________________________________________________
When you do go to sleep,
what do you think about?
Dream about?
In your fantasy world,
what do you live without?
Is pain and strife nonexistent?
Is it a world where you are hardly ever timid?
Unafraid of yourself
Your possibilities
Your destinies
In my fantasy world, you are one of the rulers
Measuring me up,
Dictating the rules of my love.
Your charisma and power is something I could have never dreamed of.
As we lay in my bed,
Preparing ourselves to enter our domains imaginary,
I only have one request for now.
I ask that we fall asleep with our lips touching so our souls can converse through the night.
Fully sharing thoughts and memories without rations.
Making the rules and breaking the rules of our passion.
Continuously lighting our flame
For everytime we ignite, my fantasy world comes to light.

Roll Call
I wonder who really reads my blog.
I just post just because I need a virtual library for the things that I want and need and feel and wonder and believe and desire.
If you do read my blog, thank you. N*

Got a big ego
One thing I have learned.
I must remove my ego from all situations.
Especially in love.
Who am I?!
Who am I to be upset that someone decides to talk to someone else?
Who am I to be mad that people don't drop everything to tend to me?
Who am I to be sad and bothered by someone doing what they feel is best for their life?
I would love to be the person that the world revolved around.
But I'll leave that shit for Beyonce.
I have to remove my ego and my insatiable desires from all situations.
My life will reflect my choices.
No one else's.
My love will reflect an ego-less, balanced, and chemistry-laced bond that you and I will create.
I finally understand that people have to do what is best for them (while they are there) and I would be stupid to ask them to put everything on hold for me (while I am here).
Who am I?

Hmmmm..…
I'm considering starting a new blog.
A Black Girl's Guide to Buddhism.
I really don't want to say girl.... I'm a lady, woman. Girl just sounds better. You know I love alliteration.

Bodhisattva
Mr. Cook, a carpenter, came to build a new closet in my room. He said "All you Bodhisattvas live on the 3rd floor."
Bodhisattva
In Buddhism, a Bodhisattva is anyone who is motivated by compassion and seeks enlightenment not only for him/herself but also for everyone...
Becoming a Bodhisattva is a huge step in helping not only yourself, but also every other sentient being, both seen and unseen. Most people are self-motivated and work primarily to solve their own problems, keeping others a distant second. Should someone do an act of kindness, repayment is generally expected whether in the form of a thank you and/or further praise.
A Bodhisattva is motivated by pure compassion and love. Their goal is to achieve the highest level of being: that of a Buddha. Bodhisattva is a Sanskrit term which translates as: Bodhi [enlightenment] and sattva [being]. And their reason for becoming a Buddha is to help others. The Bodhisattva will undergo any type of suffering to help another sentient being, whether a tiny insect or a huge mammal. In Shakyamuni Buddha's 'Perfection of Wisdom in 8,000 Lines' it states: "I will become a savior to all those beings, I will release them from all their sufferings." If this sounds familiar to anyone not acquainted with Buddhism, then you only need to think of the example of Jesus Christ, a true Bodhisattva.
