STEP BACK TO LOOK FORWARD

·        QUICK THOUGHT:STEP BACK TO LOOK FORWARD
-So u’ve made mistakes,big deal who hasn’t?!
-What’s done is done,time to move on
-It’s a lot to  take when the past comes flashing back,but it’s never to late to flashforward.


·         LYRICAL TOUCH:AFTERMATH(ADAM LAMBERT)
“Have you lost your way,living in the shadows of the messes that you made
And so it goes everything in your circle starts to overflow
Take a step before you leap into the colours that you seek
You’ll get back what you give away
So don’t look back on yesterday
Wanna scream out,no more hiding
Don’t be afraid of what’s inside
Gonna tell you you,ll be alright in the Aftermath”

“It’s not too late
Think of what can be if you rewrite the role you play”



Every time I hear this song,it gives me an ummph…the kind that makes you want to believe in the impossible,the kind that sort of tells you that the worst of your mistakes only need a little bit of fixing , that things will be all bright again and that the sun will shine again, IN THE AFTERMATH!!Maybe Adam meant something else singing this song,but that’s how I get it,and it speaks straight to my soul.
“Don’t be afraid of what’s inside”  we all go through things and at times we may not be so proud of what we see in ourselves or how messed up our lives can get but won’t kill us to take a step back to see  what really caused us to make those mistakes.Truth of the matter is,the deed is done but avoiding past experiences can be the easiest thing to do simply by:KNOW WHAT YOU DID,ACCEPT WHAT YOU DID AND NEVER REPEAT WHAT YOU DID!!

But hey…am not saying it’s the simplest thing to do,by far it’s the most dreadful and I’ll tell it to you upfront.Am speaking from experience here,fear Is the worst enemy to anything that’s why for all of us we fear  not looking back and not taking a chance on creeping through the shadows of our mistakes.But today I got a remedy for that,works like magic and definitely WORKS!!!

If living in the past scares you,if remembering your past haunts you,if you can’t get over the past ……..time to stop!!!
Ever heard that saying,when you want something with all your hear you gotta go out there and get it?? Well……that’s it!!!Step back from the shadows and take a leap to a clearer world,the world that you want to live and the world that makes you happy.Just take a hold of your life and the One who gave it to you knew what He wanted it to be for you,”so don’t look back on yesterday” and “ rewrite the role you play”

So the aftermath for you will be one you’ve made and one that lets you know that there’s nothing that can keep you from rising once you’ve fallen.We all need some time down ‘there’ to realize how ‘up there’ really feels like.

The Man That Made Me Believe In Impossibilities

How do I write about a man whose loud presence can’t be ignored? How do I begin to describe a man whose life should be written down in volumes of books, a man whose battles and achievements could literally make you wonder why you have never tried out that daredevil in you? A man whose blind faith and roaring spirit will leave you believing that anything is possible, as long as you just do it! I have never written down anything much about my father, mostly because words won’t do him justice and because you need to experience him to actually know who he is. He is tough, he is loud, he is sharp and witty, he never gives up and he is simply my papa. I know I will never get it right when it comes to the adjectives that could describe papa, mostly because he is more than words. He’s the man who’s taught me to live in the moment, because we can’t really trust the future. A man who’s taught me to be witty, because sometimes you have to outdo the book smarts to survive. A man who’s ta...

Start Acting, Stop Typing

June, how I've waited for you! 23 days down with  30 minutes to spew out my thoughts to the world. Here we go... I never like to talk about my life in here, instead I only add the bits I feel would implicate me less in this era of  'hey guys, welcome to my channel'. As much as I want to keep things mysterious to spice up my online persona, I feel like a lot can go wrong with an audience that hides behind screens. I would rather take my chances on being as evasive as possible. Yes, I'm admitting  to my cowardice.  However, I will defend my stance by saying that whatever thoughts I type in here, are rarely inspired by my own life. Rather, they have everything to do with how I perceive the world (people/places/things/ANYTHING)  around me. That's the inspiration. What I hide  is under lock and key in  a mind vault labelled "PRIVATE, for Yvette's crazy thoughts only". The world around me and how I would like to change it through the words I share is wh...

Big Girls Don't Cry

Nothing kills me more softly than saying goodbye. There's  nothing good in goodbye, and there never will be. It's my humble request to revise this English word. It's easy to say goodbye but the feeling that comes with it is a like a slow blow to the heart. I may  be exaggerating the description, but truth be told, saying goodbye is hard for me. Case in point, 8 years ago, I began a tradition that I thought would make this heart of mine  tough enough to withstand the pains of goodbye. I could never stand the thought of saying goodbye to my sister at the airport. I was always the one person left behind at home while everyone else escorted her. The sight  of seeing her climb up the boarding stairs made the goodbye more real!! She was leaving me!!! In retrospect, my actions didn't  make sense because I still said my  goodbye at home. Lucky for me, no one bothered with my decision to stay. BooHoo!! I'm all grown up now and I wish I  had been there ti...
