Wanna take my time
And get to know me
Everytime I watch Keyshia Cole’s show,
I end up in tears.
Lord have mercy.
I end up in tears.
I’m currently in a state of isolation, which is bittersweet. At times I find myself thinking about reaching out to the people I met here, but then I also enjoy spending time with myself and getting back in touch with me.
But today is one of those days I wish someone would call me up, and take me out.
Don’t fight it Bri. Plain and simple, sometimes being alone sucks…but sometimes it really is necessary. Work the healthy balance…don’t become a hermit, but don’t fight the time to know, appreciate and GROW yourself. I so wish you were here…*hugs*
*sidenote* I’m happy for Keyshia Cole…it’s her sister I feel like I need to pray for daily. But as they unravel more of her story, it’s apparent why she’s such a mess. I’m glad they’ve introduced therapy into the situation too, but as a family and individually. If mom can learn to forgive herself, she can be a bad girl. If not, sadly, she could turn right back to the destruction. Wish I had a famous sister or best friend that would take me everywhere and let me escape my life to hang out with them. Miami looked wonderful…LOL.
Girl! Didn’t Miami look GREAT?!? Had me rethinkin’ my life’s plan. I need to find me somebody to carry me (or help me in) to a better situation.
Yeah, I was completely sobbing when her sister was with the 3 girls. They were just SO cute, and SO happy, and so unaware of the situation that preceded them. I hope they can bring it together for the girls, if not for themselves.

Girl, you are not the only one in tears! I love that they don’t try to sugar the family issues. And you know they could! I’m sure that them baring all the way they do, is helping so many people.
And gosh! I wish she was my friend, I could so use a friend like that!
If you want to be around people then call someone up. Don’t isolate yourself. You are only hurting yourself.
I ended up taking myself out (kinda); got a mani, a pedi, and waxed the brows (the nail salon had the BOMB massage chairs……my back got a GREAT workout while the feet were gettin the attention they deserved). I also washed and flat ironed my hair.
But ummm…I think I need some serious help and/or prayer because I *almost* got what I asked for. Someone did call me up to see about me, and I burned it. Played it to the left.
What the hell is WRONG with me?
I don’t know what I’m doing anymore, and I don’t know what to do about it.

Don’t watch her show but I hear it can be really touching. And I know how you feel girlie. I feel the same way TOO often. I went through this same thing very recently. I just had to pick up and get away. Hope you find what works for you.
do you like to read? I am a member of a book club that meets in the city. If you’re curious, send me an e-mail.
I don’t watch Cole’s show but I did read her interview in Essence. She is an amazing person.
Haven’t seen her show yet…
Isolation can be good on the soul once in a blue Mooon. If this is your “blue Moon” time, go for it. Hopefully it’ll help you reflect for a time being.
Thanks for the comment. It’s much appreciated. =)
I hope it’s gotten at least a little better since you posted this.
I know how these spells can be (for me, anyway). Living along can be the best and worst thing in the world, at the same time.
I don’t know that there’s anything useful I can say, but if it helps… remember that this is spell is just that. By-definition it is temporary. It shall pass.
As it does life will continue to evolve. Hope for the future is one of the easiest things in the world to justify. There’s just too much potential in you and in this world to doubt that good things and good times are coming your way.
Take care.
I know how that feels.
Especially those extremely boring days when time just moves so slowly.. I love the layout. =)
Honey I’ve been feeling like this on most weekends lately. I need a hot DATE ASAP!!
