Life

Something has gotten into me. Something great. I call it “Hardcore Happiness” I’ve always said “You can’t live a positive life with a negative mind,” which is true.

Okay, so I’ll tell you the truth… I’ve been dealing with this health issue that I am not 100% okay with talking about it openly yet, but I’m learning to deal with it and telling myself that everything is going to be okay. Yes, I get super anxious at times and I don’t really know what to expect because as of now I am playing the waiting game and not sure what it could turn into. I also begin to feel overwhelmed at times, but you know what? If I just sit here and worry all day, I won’t really enjoy the “NOW” — for this very reason it’s why I am not a huge fan about talking about it all the time. Though I may be dealing with this, I’m not dealing with it alone and I love my family, close friends and boyfriend for being there for me when I needed them and how they continue to be a great support system. XO Words cannot express how much I love them.

It’s all about enjoying your loved ones and being kind to everyone. You never know who may have it worse than you do. Some people take for granted of what and who they have in their life which blows my mind. I am fortunate enough to have such great people in my life who love and care about me. It’s all the little things that you may not notice which mean a lot… at least to me they do.

For example:
“Good Morning”
“How was your day?”
“Be careful”
“Text me when you get home so I know you’re safe”
“Sweet dreams”
“How are you?”
“I hope you’re feeling better”
“Have a good day today!”
“I miss you”
“Good night”…
“Can you come over?”
“Can I come over?”
“Can I see you?”
“Can I call you?”
“You’re beautiful”
“Want something to drink?”
“Watch your step”
“Let’s watch a movie”
“What are you up to?”
“How is your day so far?”
“It will be okay”
“I’m here for you”
“Do you need anything?”
“Are you hungry?”
“I just wanted to hear your voice”
“You just made my day”

You don’t have to hear “I Love You” to know that someone does. Listen carefully. People speak from the heart more often than you think
I hope this post makes you realize how precious life is and to pay close attention to those around you. Quit bashing what you hate, promote what you love and keep it moving people; life doesn’t stop for anyone.

Until next time,
Dee

What are you?

I’ve been asked that countless times. I have learned the dif­fer­ence in what na­tion­al­ity, ethnicity and race is – yes, they are different and people confuse them very often. I bring this up because I was just asked what my na­tion­al­ity was and I didn’t really have time to answer properly because I am currently at work.

I am American, Puer­tor­i­can and Hispanic/Latina.

Let me break it down for you.
Your na­tion­al­ity is based on where you live. Using myself as an example: I live in the United States of America therefore I am American. If I was to live in Canada, I’d be Canadian. Ok, next is Ethnicity. Ethnicity is based on your heritage, culture and where your parents are from. My parents and I were born in Puerto Rico, but we moved to the U.S when I was 1 year old. Last, but not least, race is what you are cat­e­go­rized as from your ap­pear­ance. As broad as that sounds, it’s true. Black, white, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, etc. Have you ever checked off a box on any type of paper work with those cat­e­gories? Well, that is what your race is.

Being asked the question What are you?  Seems a little broad to me and every time I am asked, I just want to go on a rant and explain it in depth, but most of the time I am usually on the go. I’ve gotten in many disputes about this with my mom and trying to help her un­der­stand all of this.

To end this, I’d like for you all to watch this video. I think it is ab­solutely perfect. It’s quite humorous, but it gets the point across nicely. Enjoy!

Blogging

I write for me and I post on here for myself. I am not a professional writer in any shape or form, but blogging for me is like a get away. I don’t know who actually reads or let alone enjoy my blog posts and I am not saying that I don’t care; I sincerely appreciate if you do take the time to read, like or comment on my posts. It means the world to me. Just know that with every blog post, there is a special piece of me that is being shared with you all even if it’s a silly post.  Anywho, have a wonderful day to whoever is reading this at this very moment. You are beautiful and special in your own way.

xoxo, Dee

Alright, I am officially done with finals as an undergraduate student and it is the best feeling!!! This week has been so hectic for me, but it’s all done and over with. I can’t believe I am graduating from my university next Saturday.  Time is flying by and my dreams are slowly, but surely becoming reality! I wouldn’t have made it this far if it wasn’t for my amazing family and close friends. I’ve been surrounded with such great energy by family, best friends and boyfriend; I wouldn’t trade them for the world. I am super thankful for everything and everyone that has helped me along the way.
If any of you out there are taking finals or just stressing over something, look back and think of all the good things/people in your life. Some people may have it worst and sometimes we take things for granted. In life, we are usually tested and if it wasn’t a blessing then it was a lesson. Don’t let anyone rain on your parade, strive to be amazing and remember that you can’t live a positive life with a negative mind.
Next Saturday will be such a huge accomplishment… I’ll keep you posted! 🙂

Have you ever?

Have you ever felt like you just clicked with someone?

Have you ever felt so comfortable in your skin and not have a care in the world?

Have you ever felt like you were capable of anything you put your mind to?

Have you ever felt like you weren’t going to see someone all day, but manage to make time for them?

Have you ever met someone from the opposite gender/sex that was almost the same person as you?

Have you ever met someone whose birthday is the day after yours?

Have you ever met someone who has made you feel like you were the most amazing person to live on this planet?

Have you ever met someone that can finally handle your strong personality and laugh at your silly jokes?

Have you ever met someone that has stared into your eyes and it feels like they are staring into your soul?

Have you ever met someone where you don’t have to say much about how you feel internally, you can just feel it through their body language?

I have. I have clicked with someone like I haven’t with anyone ever before. It is the most amazing feeling in the world. I feel beautiful inside and out because of this individual. There are days when we believe that we aren’t going to see each other at all and then BAM, one of us makes it happen. Someone finally doesn’t take my sarcasm too serious and is sarcastic back to me. Yet, he can be so charming, a true gentleman with his kind words that flow gracely through his lips. I can just taste the words as he speaks and it’s a lovely feeling when he caresses me. I feel safe and silence isn’t awkward. There is this bond that just ties us together, I don’t want to let go. I crave you. I crave the way you look at me straight into my eyes and tell me how pretty I am. I crave your presence, that’s enough for me. I don’t want this feeling to go away….. This is so worth while.

Thank you J.

One day.

I wrote this on my Tumblr blog one day and thought I’d share with you all.

 

You are constantly looking for someone to care about you in different ways, whether it is talking to someone all day or creepin’ through the night with someone. Because that feels just as good; pleasure. Pleasure of having love and being loved, affection, being able to confide in someone or even cracking stupid jokes with each other….because it gives you warm feeling inside. You crave attention and are quick to stick to someone who gives you what you want. You want it because you want to feel wanted…..accepted…..loved. It’s natural, we’re humans and wanting all of this is normal. Trial and error….. some individuals will test you, hurt you OR make you laugh and love you. You just never know what life throws at you next. You also learn to adapt. Adapt to not being in a relationship and being aware that all someone wants is to hit it & quit it or play with your emotions because they are unsure of their own. Adapt to being constantly loved physically and emotionally because you refuse to not be wanted. It’s all a learning process.. People come and people go and you will never know how long they will stay You just have to….wait. Wait until you find out whether someone is a blessing or simply a lesson learned. You are scared to show how you really feel because it isn’t that easy anymore…how unfortunate. Unfortunate because people do not value your feelings as they should, but hey that’s just the way the cookie crumbles. There is only so much you can do…. So love yourself before you love ANYone else because you are oh so beautiful inside and out darling. Find your strengths and weaknesses and love them. You deserve to come first and to be happy. Radiate good vibes and make others laugh with your corniness, who cares! Before you know it, there will be someone who will love all of your beauty and imperfections……. One day.
