Quarantine QT......Mama needs a break,too!

Hey Embrace'rs 

Happy Friday Everyone! How are you doing? what have you accomplished today? what can you praise God for?..... Let's talk about it! Listen here! this mama got a break from the kids today!!! The kids are spending time with their grandpa. I am so grateful for him because he doesn't determine their relationship with their father's relationship. So here I am, home doing what I love to do; To write. it have been an interesting week thus far. As you know the kids received their phone, so now they are in communication with their dad; which has its own benefits and challenges. but hey, he can no longer harass the hell out of me anymore, right?. right!..... Feel so peaceful, and at ease. 

As you know I fell back on my special guy, I've been missing him a whole lot. Is as if, a piece of the puzzle went missing because of my mishandling of the situation. I am just hoping he is doing alright, still focused, doing his thang, and fathering his children. You know I have a feeling in my gut that we are going to see each other, when? not sure. But we are. 

I've been talking with my mom about most things; because she seem not to understand that mama needs a break,and desire more and the way how I handle situations, especially with the kids' father; it is the best I know how to handle it. 

Our fore-mamas raised us in a way where they couldn't get a break,for  the reason of fear or doubt of the 'what if's'. They just did the best they knew how, but what I've also noticed is they seem to have absolutely no patience for any children anymore, PERIOD! and i believe that has a toll on a woman, who are mothers not taking any breaks for their selves. Us women are deserving of that. Before we were entrusted by God to be a mother. We are women first. We need to do what we enjoy doing without allowing it to be 'kid friendly'. Wow! I can actually watch movies on Netflix without having the concern of it being inappropriate for children's precious eyes & ears. I am not saying go crazy, wilding out and ish; but these opportunities of kid free days to do what YOU( your name )love to do. Take advantage!. If you don't know what that looks like, then just enjoy the quietness of the house!, no toys on the floor, having a near-death experience with them things. Mamas, you know what I am talking about...... Please, say Amen!!!! Because them children's toys are Dangerous!!!😂😁. 

Allow me to give some truths from The Truth. 'Humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you' (James 1:21). Trust in Jesus( Our only hope in a relationship with God and our selves), that he will be right there with you in your struggles and temptations. No reason to live in fear. We were might to live peacefully and rest in His loving arms with confidence that He will take care of us. PERIOD!!!

With that being said, Mamas, you are deserving of enjoying the God-given passion and purpose instilled in you. Until next time mama-loves, If you are free for this weekend or any free time from the babies. Please take that and walk gracefully with it. Remember embracing yourself is the key to loving yourself. Love is the religion and Unity is the mission. Stay safe. Stay well. I love ya'll.

Quarantine QT .......... Life is simple mamas

Hey Embrace'rs 

How are you doing?. It is a great feeling to be alive!. Everyday I've noticed my bucket of gratefulness has increased and the more grateful I am with the things in front of me, the more of it God provides for me. With that being said, I finally completed the courses for my AA degree. I'll return back to T.U.W for my BA.Psy, MA.Psy, and Psy. D in Industry/Organizational Psy. But first I want to focus on developing my business. I am so serious in not returning back to working at a home care agency as Home health aide. I've already been exposed to greatness and what I love to do and my purpose. So going back to working for crumbs is not even it anymore. Developing my business will fund for my dreams of being debt free, financially free, homeowner, automobile owner, traveling, living life with my best friend(special person in my life), and our babies. Also creating generational wealth. 

Life is beautiful. Life is actually quite simple as long as you are aligned, walking in your purpose, and doing what you love to do, and serving others with what you love to do. I get it now!. 

If you are having some challenges, it is alright. Don't give up, Get back up, keep walking because you are not alone, when you can not go any further; call upon the Lord Our God. He will be right there to carry you along the way. 

I am going to keep it short for you today..Gotta finish this laundry load. Going to be present with the humans in my life. Always remember Embracing yourself is to loving yourself. Love is the religion. Unity is the mission. Carry your story into greatness. Its Ain't over 'till God says its over. I love ya'll. 

Aba Iseini. 💞

Hey Embrace'rs,

Good Night! how are you? How are you feeling tonight? what did you accomplish today?. You know I've been in  an internal turmoil. But I 'm feel good though. its finals week; getting all my assignments submitted before the end of Sunday's deadline. My PTA mommies been checking up on me and it feels great to have important mommies friends in my life. I love them so much. When you are walking in your purpose; everything works in your favor. I am happy! From everything I've been through, walking away from my ex. Oh yeah, i had to change my number. it was well over due; the attachment of having the same number for years and the thought of memorizing a new number. Uhh!! And also I had to fall back on my special guy. Honestly, at the moment, i was upset, annoyed at the fact that my ex been harassing him; and on top of that I figured out how my ex ended up knowing his number. Let me tell you, dude has some time in his hands because I can never!. So I ended falling back and ever since then I've been missing the heck out of him. I carry him in my spirit. its like when I think about my future and achievements I see him in it. I want him. All of him. Our conversations, video calls, and emoji flirting. i tell myself to stay focus on what's in front of me, first and in God's timing him and I will come together and be inseparable. So I guess this is what it feels like to patiently wait for what God has for you, huh?. 

The verse I want to bring to your attention is Matthew 6:6, it show you how you should pray. You remember I've mentioned that it is essential to align yourself spiritually, well here i am telling you the HOW, and that's through prayer. Prayers works, Do not allow ANYONE to tell you it doesn't because I am the living proof and I've personally witnessed my prayers come into passed. God cares about ya'll. All your troubles, give it to God. He will certainly take care of it and you for trusting in Him. 

Find you a room in your house, shut the door, and talk to your Father in heaven. And just watch your blessings unfold itself. 

Remember stay aligned. stay prayed up. stay safe, well, and sane! we'll get through this together.  I love ya'll. Embracing yourself is the key to loving yourself. Love is the religion. Unity is the mission.  Aba Isieni.

Quarantine QT.....(Battle of The Enemy)

Hey Embrace'rs 

It has been longgg overdue now. I've been thinking of content that I can give ya'll that would allow ya'll to apply to your daily life. It is so much to say and little words to say all at the same time. I haven't shed a tear to what is going on with our nations. Based on society's views, I'll be looked as something different. But I look at myself, and i check myself, like I am different not only different I am chosen. I am chosen by God to use my gift of writing, encouraging, teaching, and giving to the sheep of the world. Last night, the babies( they no longer babies but always remain my babies) and I went outside and walked around the front of our building; playing with nature. As I walked about the second round; I stopped and started reading my poems, and my vision of EmbraceU,LLC.  Even me as a woman of God, a woman of faith can stumble in the cracks of the world. But I am still trusting in Him, Abba Father alone. Without Him, I am nothing and With Him in me i am more than something. hallelujah!!! thank you Jesus. 

So you know that with the pandemic still going on, establishments are slowly opening back up, people are being more aware of hygienic situations( washing of the hands, sanitizing EVERYTHING, removing of the clothes in households, oh yea, wearing masks and gloves) adjusting to the new normal with remote learning and remote working. This should teach you ONE THING, Who is really at the throne?? plain and simple. Period.

 Racism has always been the center of our nation. however, views in the media of an innocent man being murdered by the hands of a law enforcement. As you know, I instantly saw THE ENEMY, and i already knew what was going on. You thought I was woke then. I am more woke than anything. the way that cop looked at us, the people, as if he didn't feel Anything. when the cop got fired, lost his family, got detained. He began to justify his actions. When I realized what was going on, the first thing i did is 'DO as Jesus did' during his crucifixion; asked God to forgive that man, he need not no any better. So then days, weeks, went by a few more horrendous news. Then i came to realized The Bible is stating every bit of events occurring in our today's world. 

God wants us to TURN IT AROUND!!, turn from our wicked ways and follow Him. Follow His Command and Live. This here has nothing to do with religion or anything like that. I care about ya'll souls and God does to. Do ya'll want to live life or be conform in existing this life of wickedness. Right now THE ENEMY is angry as heck and is out to get everyone whose weak enough, in spirit, so he can do what he do, which steal, kill, and destroy.  

TURN IT AROUND, Come to ABBA FATHER. give all your troubles to Him  and begin to LIVE! 

Love is Our Religion. Unity is Our Mission. Freedom is a choose. Remember embracing you is the key to loving yourself. 

Stay tuned. Stay safe. Stay Well. Stay in the Word. Take a walk with your babies. Write down what you'll like to do. START DREAMING!! 

I love ya'll. Until next time. Aban isieni

Quarantine QT..... Actions to implement real change into this world.🧡

Hey Embrace'rs 

Happy Terrific Tuesday? How have you been?, Let's talk about your emotions, your thoughts, your ideas on how we can implement real.action for real change?.

I believe all of these sequence of events were purposely constructed to tell us,humans; Whose really in control and  what really matters most in life?. God is in control, He will always be in control. And He desires for all of us to.turn from our ways and lean on Him. He desires for us to inherit a piece of heaven here on earth. What a wonderful feeling it is to recognize the goodness God wants to give us in all of the craziness we have been experiencing. It doesn't even feel as if we are quarantined anymore because we have gotten accustomed to the new life adjustment, well that's how i see it. 

All you can do is be still, focus on yourself. Focus on your God-given gifts, your passions and use it purposely for His glory. 

So once the world opens back again. We are moving smarter and wiser. We are working together instead of against one another. Give Love the power it rightfully deserve because God is love. And He is everything. Call upon Him and He will cease it all. Love is the religion and Unity is our mission. Embracing yourself is the key to loving yourself.  I love ya'll. Stay well. Stay blessed.  Aba iseini.

Quarantine QT......Walk in wisdom and in Love!!!🧡

Hey Embrace'rs!!

How are you feeling? what you been up to in a time like right now?. Let's talk! I've felt quite numb to the whole ordeal with black folks and police brutality. watching the racist bigot as an officer placed his whole knee on the neck of an innocent Black man, and had no remorse on his face about it. that shit right there was much deeper than what the eye wants us to see. The oppressed system, racist, segregation, people are outraged. I'm outraged. Change is coming. Don't worry. Former President Obama mentioned it in his last speech that change doesn't stop when he leaves office; its going to be plenty more to handle for it to actually and finally take place.  

Which comes to the question, that lingers in my mind about the incident. Look deeper into the action of the officer using a part of his body as a weapon to kill someone whom was innocent. Did both of them knew of each other?, Was there any awareness?. Let's view it as a metaphor, Do you, ladies, gents, young people have any one or anything kneeing your neck to the point of asphyxiation & death?. As i thought about it, personally, i do have a person's knee on my neck..... my ex. I've been trying to handle it myself to remove him out of my life for good. Yet not realizing certain situations had to happened to wake me up. Let alone the people for ACTION!!!.  we need to become more Doer in our lives rather than sayers or hearers.

Action- is the fact or process of doing something, typically to achieve an aim. The aim of the movement Black Lives Matter, BLM, so we can be recognized as humans in this country we helped built. the fact that there is rioting and looting, elections is slowly approaching would be a great start to the recognition we deserve. 

In my personal life, I need to officially close the chapter book of my ex, no more turning back. Looking forward in faith that change is already here!

So if you do have a person or some thing kneeing your neck; don't be afraid to ask for help or do something to help. Its all about Action. And from action and consistency comes the change. 

Love is the religion. Unity is the mission. Stay safe. Stay blessed. I love ya'll. Remember embracing yourself is the key to loving yourself. Aba isieni

Quarantine QT.......... knowing what work or don't

Hey Embrace'rs

How are you feeling? what is in the agenda for today? Happy Monday!! It has been an extremely mentally busy week. I noticed, as an adult, getting an adequate sleep and starting your day with a energized, and having a nutritional meal or replacement meal  is very important and necessary. I've slept at my optimal time, however i would wake with aches on my shoulder cuffs. I decided that i have to start my day with a green machine drink, water, and DAILY to-do list . in order for my day to be well balanced and purposeful. 

Baby daddy drama is overrated i am sick n tired of talking about him. I believed i handled him extremely well, i did slip up with the cussing. but I am human. Him and I are still working on a neutral ground on this new relationship. Stay tuned with that!

Now for the one and only amazing man of my life, He is soo amazing. Everything about him is amazing, yes girlll, even his flaws. Our goal is to work on seeing each other again. I know I know, how you guys did it. Actually, in the beginning I was still working something out with my kids' father, and I realized he was NOT it. the start of the new year. it just didn't feel right at all. I am in the house with the kids and he is outside doing God knows what instead of enjoying the moments with us. then want to ask for something towards the night, disrespecting his dad's house. I just feel soo dirty, a whore with this man around. 

Yeah, so back to my hunni, HE IS JUST AMAZING!! :-D. I'll tell you more about him when the first real date happens. we have been only speaking over the phone, so i do not want any bad juju's on my new love life.

My business is still a working progress. I ain't trying go back to work as a Home Health Aide. I am no longer there in my life to go back. so it is all or nothing when it comes to the steps of getting my business off the ground.  I am Here! I am Present! I am Ready! it is a great feeling to feel accomplished in my life after everything I've endured. 

C.R.U.S.H (Can't Rest Until Something Happens - Tyler ) is my acronym to get me through this hustle in building the empire. 

Until next time, Don't forget to end your night with prayer, wake up with prayer, Be thankful, start your day on purpose, a light,fulfilled nutritional meal, water, write down a To-do list for the day and go do some work,sis! 

 Love is the religion. Unity is the mission. Stay Safe. Stay Well. Stay faithful. I love ya'll. Remember Embracing yourself is the key to loving yourself.  Aba Iseini

Quarantine QT ......... Week's tea and thangs

Hey Embrace'rs

Thriving Thursday, isn't it? How are you feeling? What are you thriving to complete this week?.
I have been reading,studying,and spending time with the very people I've been quarantine with. Let me share some of my thoughts with you. I will soon create a 'Mamas loves Jesus' and EmbraceU merch.  God wants me to be still; and allow HIM to do what he do. On my behalf, Its so challenging because I am so used to being on the go, and wanting what I want immediately.
This goes for relationships, business, and  finances But God always put me in my place when it comes to embracing the ones I am doing all this hard work for. 'Don't be conform in the things of this world, but be of things from above' ( my paraphrase of a scripture). He is still in control.
Yooo can I be honest, I've been wanting to go dancing for while now. May this period of isolation lifts soon because I want to go dancing., preferably my cultural dance. I love me some punta and I love my culture. Random thought, i know. I am just having fun with you, guys! I miss writing to ya'll. It feels so good writing.
Oh yeah, my kids' father staying at his mamas house now, since he had a huge disagreement with his dad and on top of that, he still have not seen the kids since then. I am not pressed on that anymore. the kids are doing great. they still very much love their dad, and the door is always open for them to spend time with their dad also. they understand what is going on between their mom and dad and it has nothing to do with loving them. 
Oh can I mention to you how amazing my special man is, OMG! everything about him is amazing. he challenges me in way that brings me closer to God. It feels so great to be in his presence I do not want to mess this up. I am longing to see him in the flesh, and feel his physical touch. we have soo much to talk about.  this man is more amazing now than he did years ago. We've matured, we know exactly what we want and our conversations are exhilarating.Our day's goes so well and purposeful.
Oh, I also wanted to mention that my mother and I relationship is progressing, Gaining a closer relationship with my heavenly Father is allowing me to learn more about my mom as a woman. which feels great since I've been trying for years to conduct just like my mom and it failed for me. I realized that I can only move the only way I know how to function and process things in my life.
  I also miss going to the gym.....I noticed how much I love food and I love to work out lol and my body misses it. Downfall is home is too comfortable for me to do any work outs. DEADASS!!.So once the gyms are open. I am starting a workout plan. Until next time my beautiful people. Love is the religion. Unity is the mission. Embracing yourself is the key to loving yourself. 🧡

 Stay Safe. Stay Well. I love ya'll. Aba Iseini
