Posting With a Purpose

I’ve finally completed my process. So now, there are zero excuses that can keep me away from you. So before we continue this relationship, I think it is important to explain why we must exist.

For one, everyone sees the world from their point of view. My point of view may not be unique but . . . it can be interesting at times. Hell, sometimes I have to wonder if I and my situations are “normal”. But what’s normalcy?

My point of view comes from the mindset of a twenty-something, Black female, residing in an urban area, having the objectives of continuous growth and success. However there continue to be obstacles set up to deflect my objectives (not by choice but apparently by design). Still, I maintain my big dreams and would love to be a “Billionaire so f*(king bad”.


We’ll see where the lord guides me and where I let life take me.

At my current juncture in life, my main concerns are

  • finding a career,
  • executing my five year plan
  • sorting out my love life :-/
  • enjoying the things twenty-somethings enjoy
  • CATCHING UP on life where I left it 3-6 years ago


More or less, I’m ready to start my adult life. I don’t think it will be too complicated. Okay, so I’m hoping it won’t be too complicated. Hopefully with the air cleared, life will become sensible (thus making up for the antics that filled my childhood). So here I stand ready, able, and hopeful.

We’ll see how long that lasts.

    It's 10 o'clock, do you know where your kids are?

    Every night the news asks, "It's 10 o'clock, do you know where your kids are?"

    It's a sad day when you have to ask someone to take responsibility for their "own" kids.

    A Letter To You

    A mess . . . here I go starting this relationship and not following through. This has been the unfortunate story of my life. I start something with the best intentions and all the motivation in the world. But then I let other things get in the way. Maybe if I had not of ignored your calls I wouldn’t be writing this now. There were nights where I wanted to shower you with affection, pour my heart out, and really connect. We were supposed to share our worlds with each other. But I always let my current situation take precedent over you. I apologize, I really do.



    I take full responsibility for the state of us right now. If I have failed at anything thus far, it has been you my beloved blog. Even though I have not given you the attention you deserved, I never stopped thinking about you.


    Well blog I tell you what. From this point forward, I will dedicate some real time to you. Let us celebrate that you will not turnout like poor Xanga. I loved her too but I know I used her. I only embraced her when my world just wasn’t right. I think we had a four year relationship and then I just let her go. Maybe she let me go. I don’t know.


    But her I am stating that our relationship will be so much better. I no longer have grad school as an excuse to your neglect. Instead, I have a brand new, overwhelming ideology. So let me address you correctly . . .




    Lady Blog,


    Thank you for your continued support. Now it’s my time to support you. Please be ready for RETURN as it will be filled with what you need and so much more. I’ve seen the Black Swan. That swan and this butterfly had a lot to share. I'm now ready to share it with you. So be cautious because . . .



    I’m here, I’m ready, and I’m coming back with a purpose.


    Your Favorite,


    Mocha Butterfly
