I woke up this morning with a weary heart & nothing particularly happened to cause it. I woke up and checked my email, options are few when you delete social media from your phone. What else gives you the same satisfaction of the morning scroll? I will tell you first hand it's NOT checking your… Continue reading Patience
The Last First Time
Today is the LAST first for me. Let me elaborate, today is the last time I will be experiencing a holiday/special occasion for the first time without my ex. In a couple weeks it will be a full year since the breakup and I still FEEL about it. Since the break up I’ve self reflected,… Continue reading The Last First Time
Sometime in July
I’ve missed you all, but I’m sure that you understand my absence. While I have never stopped writing, my public writing took a bit of a pause. There has been so much that’s transpired in my life that the very person writing to you is a completely different human being. I honestly don’t even know… Continue reading Sometime in July
Check Me God!
In January 2022, I officially entered the second half of my twenties. And to be honest I didn’t really know how to feel about it. The idea of “getting older” wasn’t particularly inviting because I knew that God was calling me to change… After I graduated from undergrad, I was jolted by a series of… Continue reading Check Me God!
Hey Sis, You Know Yourself Best

Writing is therapeutic, it’s a way for me to express my raw emotions without fear or judgement from others. Every now and then topics for blogs come to mind, but the inspiration… Continue reading “I’m sorry, but that’s not who I am”
Forgiveness
Within the past couple of months, the word “forgiveness” has been placed on my heart. I believe that it’s been placed there because I, myself, have been challenged to forgive. We often fail to see that forgiveness has levels to it, and in turn, that lack of understanding separates us from the possibility of ever… Continue reading Forgiveness
A Weight Lifted
Do you ever wake up and wonder... "How did I get here?" I've been asking myself that question a lot lately because so much in my life has shifted. I'm different, I wish I could explain it, but all I know for certain is that I've changed. While I'm still "Tati",what it means to be… Continue reading A Weight Lifted
Without a Doubt
As of recently I have been in contact with my two old friends, doubt and hesitation. Together this dynamic duo can make you reconsider your entire self-concept and everything you thought you knew. For the life of me I cannot understand why these two friends are back on my doorstep because they most certainly are… Continue reading Without a Doubt
Spring Cleaning
As of recently, I have decided that I no longer want to be angry. And as easy as that sounds for some it's not for me because my life has been more than challenging. The crazy thing is that I didn't even KNOW I was angry. My heart was becoming bitter and black and I… Continue reading Spring Cleaning
