Tell The Truth was one of my favorite tracks from the Empire 2015 season by Jussie Smollett inspired this blog post. I wanted to dig deep into me and share another part of my life story with you. Here is a photo of me when I was four years old and Lord, may I say that every time I look at this photo I break down into tears.


I felt urged to do some necessary shopping at Walmart a couple of days ago. Before heading out the door, I decided not to check my bank account on my phone. In my heart, I was convinced that I had the money in my checking account to at least shop under a $40-dollar spending limit. 




There's a saying that has stuck to me and it goes, “If you stay ready then you never have to get ready.” Yes, it resonates very deeply with the story and message that I am about to give to you today.



I have been going through the motions of the sudden difficulties of life. Days were both my husband and I are struggling to make ends meet. Ramen noodles, oatmeal, red beans and rice, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches have been on rotation for the past few weeks in are apartment. Uplifting smiles from our baby boy have been keeping us hopeful. It's been tough living pay check to pay check. We have more bills than money right now, but we still smiling.
