You can do GOOD all by yourself. You've survived the bad already. It's okay to feel lonely here and there. You're not alone. Sometimes, its best to wrestle with that uncomfortable space when you crave the presence, assurance, and warmth of another. From my own experiences, I realized that sometimes my loneliness led me into the arms of people I had no business confiding in. Those experiences have led me to celibacy, to redirecting my efforts, my focus, my goals, my views. Take the time to be open with you, you to you, just you. Walk with yourself. Take time to understand yourself. Listen to the beat of your own heart rather than clinging to the cadence of another chest. When was the last time you trusted yourself with you? Peace is not peace when it is solely tied to the presence of another. People come, go, return, disappear, and back again. You are stuck with you. The least you could do is build solace for you, by you. You got this. You know you do. Look within, not out. 👑☕💋 #MochaNoMonday https://www.instagram.com/p/BwY1zPjgfLK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1b671s869dk54

In the middle of demolishing others, many become blind to the damage they are doing to themselves. A path of spitting on honorable names, kicking dirt on those that are well-established, cursing those who worked hard to get where they are leads to the the service road of self-destruction and ultimately, the interstate of broken. Look these hard workers in the eye after you stab them in the back. Notice that sparkle, that drive, that sheer will remains in their eyes and you my dear, will just walk away with blood on your hands, primarily your own. Grow up and get it in gear. They move in ways you could never fathom. Stop it while you "think you're ahead"⏳ #MochaNoMonday

I know so many that will not board a plane because they're afraid of what could go wrong. Then there's people that are down for the journey, refusing to let fear keep them on the ground. Let the goodness of the unknown propel a strong taste for adventure, advances, and aptitude. You can go anywhere and you can do anything, period. Hope you got your wings ready sooner rather than later🛫 #MochaNoMonday ☕💋🍯

Boy: I asked you if could help me move. You said you were busy. 11 PM, the same day, you ask can you come over? ...I thought you were busy. Man: He called me to say good morning, realizing my voice sounded different. "Are you sick?" "Yes." *30 minutes later* He comes to the door, groceries bags full of cold medicine, soup, tissues, etc. He heats up the soup and makes some tea. "If you need anything else, let me know...I mean it." Some come around to play games. Some come to build. You figure out the difference. You determine if bootycalls are enough for you or do you seek more. People will only treat you how you allow them. You could have exactly what you need if you'd stop selling yourself short. You are so worth it. You always have been. #ItsBeenAMinute #BackLikeMiNevaLeft #MochaNoMonday

-Nobody wants to take an L but we often fail to realize Ls set us up for our accomplishments.  In fact, they teach us to be humble and cherish how far we’ve come and better prepare for where God is taking us next. We don’t have it all sketched out when we’re born and everything does not go according to plan. And to that, you should be wiping your brow with thanksgiving in your heart.  Why tho Mocha? Have you ever made it through a situation you never thought you would and swore up and down you wouldn’t live without the things or people you had to leave behind? And when you look back, don’t you wish you’d done it sooner? I say we should embrace the ultimate ‘L’ : LEARNING. If you’re not learning, you’re not living.  Isn’t that what life is about anyways? An ongoing cycle of trial and error?  Being up in the sky all the time can ‘cloud’ the mind of what is truly important: growth.  Appreciate the fall, people! ☕🍽💋#MochaNoMonday

When they say things like "It's not you, it's me" or "you're too good for me", believe them. In this life, maybe once, maybe a thousand times, you could just be a convenience, not someone worth courting. It's not how you treat that person, how you carry yourself, not even how you look. Just accept the fact that someone will not deem you as enough or worthy of what you ask of them. You may just be the first person that comes to mind when a woman's gas tank or stomach is on E, fellas. And you may just be the first person a man calls when his other head is throbbing. I was in a relationship for almost 2 years and every time I asked to meet their parents, I was shushed with "The right time will come. Hold on, babe". This is not customer service and there is no need to be put on hold if you truly are special to someone. So my word to you is to know if you're being taken for a test drive around the corner or a road trip pass the sandy beaches, glorious mountains and flowing rivers. Are you a convenience store or a 5🌟restaurant with valet parking? You're only worth what you label yourself as and how you allow yourself to be treated. Better price check that ass😧 and don't let these people get a way with 'highway robbery'. Stop letting these people rent your emotions and let a real one pay the mortgage on your soul and call you home. But y'all don't hear me. Let me take my ah to schleep. Good night, my precious cargo😘 #MochaNoMonday #LateNightLyrics

Of all the world's mysteries, the actions, motives and intentions of those that surround you can be the most puzzling. Check this: put the puzzle pieces down. People change daily, which is all the more reason for you to stay rooted in who you are. You never saw a tree that stands alone get up and walk off because the others got cut down; they stand singular and strong. So what whatchamacallit won't speak to you anymore or shawty rubbernecks the hell out of you every time you step into the room?  Maybe they couldn't handle what you brought to the table or they never saw the Sun so close😧😌 You can't help that. They must think pretty highly of you if your very presence disturbs them. You just keep your peace, assume they are your biggest fans and go on and handle your business.  The Lord giveth and He taketh away: simple as that. You ain't gotta worry about who stays and who goes. If you switch up how you carry yourself more than a traffic light, time to slow down, evaluate what truly matters and then move forward. Some people will never address what bothers them about you and that's perfectly fine. That's a personal problem.  That's not your place to know. Focus on you B. Put the damn magnifying glass down and pick up ya face. Kings and Queens don't look down. The only way is up, my loves #MochaNoMonday #SherlockWho #PP

#WCW A Bowl of Bring It WildFl🌻wa So this This is for you The girl who cleans her bowl And covers it For fear of criticism Of those who haven't even lifted their fork yet Do Not be ashamed, For you see a good thing in front of you, And you don't let it pass The girl Who's thighs collect enough Friction to make a semi truck stop on a dime For you carry lightning and thunder in your very being And don't even feel it This is for the girl Who's closet is nothing but a familiar dressing room Trying on 5 different pairs of pants Till they pass the test of  presenting your groundbreaking physique This is for the girl Who mistakes the word “exercise” For “extra fries” Don't worry Lifting your hand to your mouth is considered arm day This is for the girl That pounds down more verbal abuse Than she does milkshakes You are brave and worthy, Just not of Bullshit, bullies, and brokenness This is for the girl That gasps for air after going up a flight or so of stairs, Let the others pass, They could never understand the honor that God bestowed upon you, To hold fire in your belly This is for the girl That no matter how many ways and Days, she goes to the gym Or changes her diet, She comes up short You weren't born to fit into society, You were created to invite the world to your dinner table and serve it crow Chubby, Fat, Thick, Big, Plump, Plus These are all synonyms For "breathtakingly beautiful" I guess that's why we have such a hard time breathing, she shock our damn 'selves. Lift your Ice Cream Sundae in your left hand and bite into your Bacon Cheeseburger with your right and make this oath: "I Am A Gift That Was Not Meant To Stay Wrapped Up Just Because Everyone Can't Handle My Presence. I Am Big and Beautiful. The Mountains Are My Playground and There Is No Other Way I'd Rather Be". You never needed to do anything for them. If you change something about you, do it for you not because of other people's verdicts of your body. In the mean time, love what you strut daily. You are one of a kind. I love you, My Dessert Connoisseurs. Have a day that's as gorgeous as you. #MochaNoMonday #BeYouTiful #ExtraFries #ThickGirlsMatter
