What A Year!




Hi my loves,  

I am not much of a Happy Holidays type of person, meaning I would much rather say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year because I feel Happy Holidays is so generic but I saw the above picture and thought it was very cute. It inspired me to write this post.
 
2013 will be over very soon and this has been simultaneously the greatest and worst year of my life. How is that possible you may ask? Well some of the best and most memorable events in my life happened this year --- I got married, I bought a house, I graduated with my MBA. Some of the worst things, which I don’t care to revisit, also happened this year. I will never forget this year, EVER! I grew more as a person this year than I have all of my 30 previous years. God revealed a lot of things to me about myself and what better way to learn than through a unforgettable experience.  He shook my world, I fell and he gently helped me back up. I leaned on HIM.  Oh my goodness, what a year! 

Well, I just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas. PLEASE REMEMBER CHRIST. I feel like more and more people are making this life is about everything but Christ. And when this life is over, then what? Nothing will matter but your relationship with Jesus. I love you all, genuinely and truly.  Even if I don’t know you personally, I feel love in my heart for you. I know the love I feel everyday comes from the love Jesus shows me, it pours from Him to my heart to others.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

Sometimes That's The Way It Is...

Eyes are open but I cannot see
My thoughts are clouding everything around me
My mind is consumed with thoughts unyielding
My heart is heavy with all of my feelings

It is not easy and it is not fair
I only hurt because I truly care
I only hurt because someone cares not
Past situations are gone, but forgotten you have not

I want to be free from the bondage of this world
I want to see the Father of this broken girl
I want my Father to make it right
I want my Father to shine his light

My heart is heavy and this room is dark
My heart is heavy and torn apart
In darkness lies fear and sadness 
In darkness are voices driving you to madness

The voices never whisper what is good
Yet the voices are clearly understood
Because they analyze my reality 
And sum it up with great finality 

Clear it up and wash it away
Clear it up with the truth today
For the longer a lie sits the deeper the stain
The purity of love we can never reclaim

Senegalese Twists - Video Coming Soon

I will be posting a video on my YouTube channel (EverythingEbonee01) very soon about my new hairstyle. I am loving my Senagalese Twists. I will put all the details about how this look was achieved in the video. Look out for it. Should be up this weekend, and I will also post it here on my blog.
