CLIFF HANGER SERIES

“Tomorrow”—New Cliff-Hanger Series

For months Elizabeth has been trying to learn how to overcome her anxiety about becoming a boss. As much as she knew she deserved the position, just as much of her knew she did not want to create tension in her office. She knew the promotion was coming and Mr.Thomas, the current manager, had already sent her up for the recommendation. Too late to back out now. Elizabeth was known because of her work ethic. However, she never interacted with anyone outside of working hours. She didn’t believe in mixing business with pleasure. Too risky she’d always thought.  ~~~~~ End of the week.

Sometime last night, I had the vision of painting a larger piece. I haven’t decided on what it will be, but it will definitely be something awesome. I can feel it! Nothing too much to say other than a new story will be added later today. It may even be the start of a new cliff hanger *insert diabolical laughter*.  See you guys soon!

My, my…would you look at that.

Far too often we underestimate the capacity of how our words effect others. Can you imagine how interesting it would be to live in an environment where people would exist in unity?  No, me either. Diversity is what fuels our world, yet it also creates confusion and disdain amongst one another.  I wonder why that is… It could easily have to do with the simple fact of human interaction being forfeited by irrational thoughts. 

Maybe I’m just looking too deep into my mind. I get lost in there at times. At any rate, thanks for stopping by and reading my random thought. 

FROM ME, TO YOU, VIA THEM

The Debate: College Still Worth it? — Jay Colby

Special shouts out to Mr. Jay Colby on this post!

I myself am in the middle of battling if I should continue my college career. The field that I am currently in has many positions that branch from the core of corporate security. Some require degrees and others just genuine experience. I’m already at the point of starting the repayment process for my student loans. What caused me to raise an eyebrow, or both, was the fact that in less than a year I was already looking at $17,000.00…in less than a year people!!!! So that caused me to stop in my tracks, re-evaluate and ask myself, ‘Lexi…is this REALLY what you want to do? There has to be some trade programs I could do instead to add to my resume’.’  I mean, I know my weaknesses and being a studious student is one of them. *Insert giggle with a head shake*  I am one of those individuals who have managed to excel in my career field with smoothness because of my willingness to learn new things and the ability to work well with others. Not because I had a degree on hand.  Like most adults that late bloom into the idea of college, I thought it was the right thing to do. We see it everywhere. Especially late at night and the ‘you can do anything if you put your mind to it’ commercials are on network repeat. But, I digress. I have complete confidence in saying, college isn’t for everyone.

Thanks for stopping by!

With college graduations across the country about a month from starting. The question that almost every former or current college student has asked themselves. Is a college degree still worth in 2016 due to the cost and other factors answering this question can be perplexing for some. Many advocates for college would have us to […]

 The Sky Smiled 

It’s a sunny, glowing and crisp day. Today I witnessed the release of a lovely soul. They knew her to be that of a pure vessel. Many had the opportunity to  be graced with her presence. Even I too had the chance to  have held her embrace and welcoming words of love.  I won’t do too much speaking about the one who’s no longer in the flesh…but what  I will do, is acknowledge the beautiful fellow human  beings that still roam the earth.
