2012 In Review

It has been an incredible year full of unexpected twists and turns. I am so grateful to know that we as a country are changing and we are heading in a positive direction. The world is changing rapidly and fast. I think I noticed last week when the victims of the Newtown, Connecticut tragedy which took place December 14, 2012 were honored. There was an interfaith memorial with people of all backgrounds shown on national television. Isn't that incredible how we are blending people's faiths and practices in the world. It's a blessing to see that people are coming together. I remember someone said this generation will be the one that is about we....we all coming together. Doesn't that seem to be a common theme for the last decade. We are all coming together uniting as one.  In times of tragedy, in times of difficulties, and times where we are all tested against the human spirit and faith.

This year had some chapters where we had to say good-bye to a lot of people, television programs as well, people who have impacted the world but one thing remains no matter what happens like they say...the world will receive something new, something more powerful and amazing will come along and touch all of our lives again. So we look forward to the future.

I am looking forward to a lot and I cannot wait to see the plans of our country come into action and make major changes, I can't wait to see people receive what they truly deserve. So all in all it has been an incredible year.

Thank you readers for rocking with me this year....and listening to my stories and journey. Stay tuned there is always more to share with you. God bless, Happy Holidays, Stay safe, Be smart always, and most of all love one another and yourselves too...=)

Honey Brown Sugar is heading into a new direction

I am excited...very excited actually because I finally decided to take control of and figure out the way to manage my love and passion for food and then mixing it with my love for staying active, fit, and exercising. I spoke with my doctors, I spoke with the Queen of my heart (my mom), my wonderful stepdad, my dad, they all know how important this is to me. It's not just about man I want to look fit or I want to look good. It's really about keeping the inside healthy and keeping the outside happy too. Sometimes I often forget it's not just about how you look but really how are you feeling inside. Are you being honest with yourself, is there some area of your life that does not feel right. I am learning as a young adult even more how to put everything I used and learned from my health classes in high school, community college, and college. What I learned from my parents, what I all ready know.

So Honey Brown Sugar is on her way into a new direction I feel good about it because I know this is going to take time. It is also about realizing a lot of things that used to motivate me too. That will help pay off. I believe this is a great way to close out the year. After all of the drama, all the situations that happened this year, all of the heartbreak I felt for Mr. Handsome (remember him) he I will probably not see for a long time. I realize now that my life is really starting to take shape. It is falling into place. I am praying that everything will work out. I have set some good goals for myself. I am starting to figure out being honest with yourself too. That's another key to figuring this whole thing out. I am looking forward to 2013 and the future ahead. I feel like I am getting ready to embark on a new journey, a new challenge. I feel great about this now because it makes me happy to know I have people behind me who are supportive and so loving. Deep down I know they don't care how small,big, or whatever size I decide to carry my physical self. All they care about is making sure that I am happy and healthy. So I realize now doing some new things they can be scary sometimes but at times those things can make you just the person you have always wanted to be.

I reflected back...I thought about what used to make me happy, who used to motivate me, inspire me, what will make me want to get to the place I have always wanted to be at as an adult now. So I think doing that is going to challenge me. I also know that it is going to take a lot of time, patience, but I will get there. I am a visual learner I always have been. If I see it I usually will remember it and then I am able to pick something up. So if I can keep my eye on what is healthy, what is good for me I will reach my goal come December 2013. One year....focusing on health, fitness, and success.

My love life I have decided the next person....he has to find me. I am not doing anything from now on...no more contacting, no more anything. Just focusing on my plans and my goals for now. So I feel good about this now. This is what I need for now.

So my beloved readers, let's just say I am going to be handling my business.
