One Step further

 Have you ever just woke up one day and said to yourself your best is just not enough? That no matter how many steps forward you keep taking there’s always something that takes you a few steps back! I've been having those days a lot lately. I sit and think about how my life would be if  I really focused on the things that could've gotten me where I wanted to be until I have that moment of epiphany. That everything thing is the way it should be for a reason. God is teaching be the be patient so when I do get to where I want to be in life it will be well deserved and self rewarding. I truly believe that every stage we go through as an a adult is either meant to build you up or brake you down. I've learned so much just by being on my own that my parents failed to teach me or even a high school and college education didn't think to teach me. We get in thrown out in to this big old world no since of direction to take to prepare ourselves to have a great future. And with many...

Let's Have Girl Talk !

There's nothing like lounging around after a long day having a nice chat with a friend of yours while being accompanied by an open bottle of wine having some girl talk.  We all have besties we run to when we need to vent or just laugh with sometimes. I don't know about you guys but I love my friends I really enjoy hanging out with them, being able to open up and be comfortable just talking about anything. I call it the "Judge Free Zone" because these ladies cast no judgement! We have all been through the ringer when it comes to relationships or generally just dealing with certain situations in our lives.   I appreciate the open mindedness that these ladies share. I say that because there's been some real tea that has been spilled throughout the years and not once have I ever had to question their ability of keeping things within the circle. You know how that saying goes whatever happens in the house stays within in the house! I know that's a family rule but th...

The Single Life !

-
"The Single Life!"  Lets just say it's not all good and it's not all bad.  But, for the most part I am enjoying myself. I think the biggest challenge in being single is facing yourself. Its really you vs. you; at least for me on a mental note! I started dating young, majority of my life I've been in and out of relationships. Some long term some short term. I never really gave myself enough time to learn who I was, what I liked and didn't like. I didn't know much about self love at the time. I was gullible with the idea of depending on other people for my own happiness. Being naive to the fact I was always putting someone else's feelings before my own. The point is it took me a long time to realize that I was doing more damage to myself than the person I was with. I had failed to put myself on that pedestal to be the number one priority. Of course its always better said then done; but hey we've all been there before right? It's either a blessing...

AUTOBIOGRAPHY

 I'd like to introduce myself and tell you guys a little bit about who I am. My name is Tatyana, I'd describe myself as dedicated and driven, charismatic person, who's adventurous and has an optimistic type of personality. I'm a mother to the most precious little girl in "my" world. I'd also like to think of myself as a woman who has a lot of resilience. I've overcome a lot of obstacles that were put in my path to slow me down. Yet, by the grace of God I've managed to overcome those obstacles and continue to push through.  My life has always been centered around my family and friends. I am very family oriented, without my family I couldn't have gotten this far. I take pride in how far I've come because as we all know the journey throughout life is never just a joy ride.  When I had my baby girl I was fresh out of college and didn't know where to begin. A lot of goals that I had in place post graduation had to take a back seat in my mind...

About The Intellect

WHY THE BLOG?  I've decided to use this platform of "Blogging" as a way to express myself. As well as finding innovative ways to challenge my mind. Writing has always been my hobby and my tool that I use to cope. I want to be able to connect, relate, and discuss experiences with people on my blog. WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM?  My Junior year in college I had came up with the idea to make a blog space. At the time I wanted to become a journalist but didn't really succeed in that field of work. I had so many ideas drawn up for this web page. But, I let procrastination get in the way of my goals and as time passed I realized more and more that I needed to pull things together and push myself. I needed change I couldn't keep writing in journals and pawning them off to my closet. I think time for the world to read me, my thoughts, and my experiences, all of it.
