“Ships at a distance have every man's wish on board. For some they come in with the tide. For others they sail forever on the same horizon, never out of sight, never landing until the Watcher turns his eyes away in resignation, his dreams mocked to death by Time. That is the life of men. Now, women forget all those things they don't want to remember, and remember everything they don't want to forget. The dream is the truth. Then they act and do things accordingly.” - Zora Neale Hurston

I feel like Zora set a high standard for women in her novel THEIR EYES WERE WATCHING GOD. But that is one of my favorite quotes in her book. It's never easy to see our dreams as the truth but I think the obstacles that we endure make us appreciate our dreams even more when we achieve them.

I am currently in a place where I am seeking inspiration and daring to be bold enough to believe in my own dreams. It can be frustrating sometimes because you often are the only one who understands your ultimate goal. But that is all that is required. I am learning that we don't have a responsibility to make people understand our vision. We have a responsibility to manifest our visions.

This past weekend was interesting. It was actually a little rocky trying to find a balance between work and relaxing. But I tried my best when I met with my high school and college bestie Michealange (I call her MD she is a psychiatrist) I got a new camera but since I am trying to figure out how to edit my pictures nothing came out they way I wanted. I am still trying to figure out how access the edited photos :( Sooooooo sad.

Anyway MD and I went on a field trip to Mizner Park (My go-to place for relaxation). We stopped in a few boutiques and then went on to my favorite place The Cheese Course. MD got the caprese salad and I got a cheese course with two types of cheese and a fig spread (YUM). It made me happy.
