Hey Hey, Good People!! How is your 2021 going? Let me know in the comments!!! Mine is going pretty good with life and all its wonders! Well, enough about me, let’s talk about this trip!! It was most certainly one for the books!! So I went to visit my best friend and my godson for the holidays, and guys, when I tell you the city of Cleveland has so many amazing sites! We went downtown, and we saw a marker for the underground railroad, which, for me, was almost surreal! We were even able to get in some snow dances!!

Every year I make this trip because not only do I not get to see my godson and best friend as often as I want but family is one of the most important things to me. This time, I decided to get out and see the city more, and I wanted to take you all along for the ride. They say a picture is worth a thousand words!! Most of what you will see is downtown Cleveland; however, we made it to the beautiful Lake Erie! My GAWD, it was gorgeous, but I was freezing. Even with my leather jacket, earmuffs, gloves, fleece-lined pants, and multiple layers, I still felt the winter fury! So, I hope you all enjoy my attempt to look cute while freezing! Be sure to write your own story of my adventure in the comments!!! Note to self, and you, If you plan to visit Ohio in the dead of winter, make sure you dress warmly!

I felt like a big kid playing in the snow, and I am so glad I could share this moment with you all! There are so many instances in life where we have to always be on the go, or we have to move our feet to the next thing before our mind has a chance to catch up. On this trip, I was able to leave my feet and my mind at home, lol, and be. I was able to be free, enjoy the company of friends, be surrounded by love, and allow myself to unwind. It will forever be my prayer that you all take these opportunities often because self-care is so important. Work will be there when you get back, but if you don’t take care of yourself, will you be able to get back?

Exactly my point, don’t look at it as me saying that your children aren’t important, look at it as me saying that they are SO IMPORTANT that you need to take care of yourself to be there for them! Don’t ever let someone tell you that you come second to anything because you don’t. You should be the priority at all times, the reason being that if you are a parent, and you don’t take care of yourself, who will be there to take care of your family?

Keep Shining Loves
