Just in case you didn’t know…Thanksgiving is the Diva’s favorite holiday.  This year like last year was a really good one.  I spent the actual day with my family after stopping by the EARS thanksgiving dinner and seeing loved ones there.  On Friday we had a Showcase After Thanksgiving Thanksgiving Day dinner at my house.  I got to spend the day and night with some of my chosen family.  A girl can’t ask for much more than that. 

I wanted to take a moment to really acknowledge some of my blessings.  So much we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and the obstacles that make our paths a little harder to travel not realizing that those obstacles are what make us stronger and sometimes when we get detoured from our journey we end up exactly where we’re supposed to be.

On my journey through life I am fortunate to have met so many wonderful people.  Some of whom have become more than friends to me.   I have a chosen family that I love as much as the family I was born and connected to.  I have wonderful friends that always know when to leave me be or push a little bit harder.  I have a beautiful family that I was born into that has accepted me always as I am.

I am blessed with a beautiful life.  I have a home that is my sanctuary.  It is where I go to find peace and harmony.  I have been fortunate enough to acheive most of the goals I have set for myself.  As each one gets checked off it is imperative to add another one on the list.  That’s what life is about.  Constantly striving for betterment (is that a word?)

I have been blessed to travel around the world.  I made my goal of three trips in 06 let’s see if I can do four in 07.  Hawaii & Paris to start?  San Fran & Boston for sure.  Happy Birthday (in March) Mel & Congrats on the wedding (in June) Trace.  I’ll be there to celebrate with y’all.  Having the ability to do that in itself is a blessing.

This year I have come closer to realizing what I want to do with the rest of my life.  I said closer…I’m still not there yet but I am happy with my decision to become parttime and think that maybe in the new year I might consider making the move to leave my day job altogether…Consulting work has become a blessing I never expected.  As well as the night job.  Like Empress said…I’m making a salary in the streets.  Don’t knock the hustle!  And 07 is definitely the year for City Hall Entertainment.  The foundation is being laid as I type.

With the holiday season here and the year coming to a close I want to tell everyone to take time and realize all the good that is in your life.  If you live with good in your heart you will be blessed with good in your life.  Live, Learn, Love.

Til next time…besos baby!
