Hey guys,
There is so much going on this week that I have decided to take a mental, emotional, and physical break away from my blog. I need time to gather my thoughts, process my feelings, and get my house in order.
Right now, establishing my business is my primary focus.
Over the past several months, I have added more than 120 of my favorite recipes to my collection, and yes, I can prepare every single one of them. There are still many more to come. I haven't even begun sharing my cakes, pies, and desserts. These are not made-up recipes; they are actual meals I have personally prepared for family, friends, and special events throughout the years.
I've replaced watching television with prayer. Forgive me, but that has always been closer to my path.
At this stage of my life, I am no longer wasting my energy on old conversations, old disappointments, or old expectations. There comes a time when peace becomes more valuable than proving yourself to people who have already made up their minds.
And honestly, if I am not respected for all that I have done thus far, why would I continue trying to do more?
I no longer seek validation, recognition, access, or acceptance from anyone. I have reached a place where I value peace more than proximity, and privacy more than popularity.
If you do not know me, then do not speak for me.
I refuse to allow anyone to reduce my worth or define me by association. My value stands on its own. I would rather serve one hundred genuine customers than entertain unnecessary drama.
As for professional sports, I have chosen to step away from that chapter entirely. I have no desire to pursue business with the NBA or WNBA. I wish everyone success, but my focus is elsewhere.
I respect the beliefs of others, and I expect the same respect in return. I do not practice my faith according to anyone else's standards, and I refuse to engage in labels or accusations placed upon me by others.
What I desire most these days is peace.
I'm not angry.
I'm simply closing doors that no longer need to remain open.
Sometimes people ask for distance, and eventually they receive exactly what they requested. Be careful what you ask for, because some doors, once closed, are locked for good.
If championships, accomplishments, and memories no longer matter, then I am perfectly content to stream movies, enjoy my home, focus on my business, and protect my peace of mind.
Perhaps it isn't amnesia after all.
Perhaps I simply choose to remember what serves me and release what no longer does.
So for the next week, I am officially on vacation.
No drama.
No debates.
No expectations.
Just prayer, peace, purpose, and preparation for the next chapter.
6 Rings with Jordan, 5 Rings with Kobe and you don't know me???
