Peeling away the negatives:Positivism and giving are essential elements for Joy.





By Briana Booker

 Remember you only keep what you give away. If you never give away affection and care, you will never be able to obtain those traits in your lifestyle. And yes, this includes real romance. Also remember how you judge other peoples' characters can give others the ability to rate your character.

When people think or have negative outputs about others around them consistently, it displays his or her own personal unhappiness. It also reveals anti-social disorders.

Peel away all the labels you and others have given you and what is left: pure existence awareness and bliss. Think on it and try it out.

I am sure you will start to see yourself much happier and those around you more welcoming.

Letting go of Fears.





Well, I have not been personally blogging in a long time...maybe more than a year or so! So much has changed, in both good and bad ways! Where there is change, there is always room for growth! Much growth has happened in the past year or so for me!


I am finally not saying, I wish I could do this and that...now I am acting on it! There is so much power when you bring words into reality!


I finally am starting to make progression in creating a website for the people and by the people! I am falling more and more in love with this mission everyday!


If you have not visit my site http://www.fromgirltogirl.com/ , you should definitely check it out! I have been spending quite some time on it and now it is growing into a passion, not just a job for me!


This summer has been amazing to say the least! And I am learning, slowly but surely, that happiness does not always come externally. The greatest amount of happiness comes from within!


For years I use to wonder, what or who could make me happy! How wrong was I to seek happiness from outside sources beyond myself! Although material goods and people outside of myself can enhance my happiness, at the end of the day, I have to learn to be happy with me. I have to learn to love me.


Now, I am not saying I am fully there...but I am learning to truly love myself. Sometimes, the hardest lessons to learn to love ones' self comes from letting go of some of those external sources and attachments.


Recently, I have been letting go of many things and many people. Some things and people I did not want to necessarily let go for fear I could not have better....including the categories of friends, romance, work, and family. But now, I am starting to feel this was the best action for me. Letting go has open so many doors for me! God has made me gain trust in myself more.


I am starting to learn that I will not have worries when I bring my problems to the Lord. Everytime I have been in a bind, some way, some how, a miracle has seen me through it all!



I have been working and living in DC for a little more than two years. I am an intern learning amazing things about politics and policy! So much I did not know! And I am gearing up for my senior year!


I am finally putting my life back in shape in a physical, spiritual and mental sense.


So many decisions to make and so little time! Although stressful, it is, and I hope it continues to be a fabulous adventure.


I am excited to share my journey. I am excited to share my voice!



Until my next blog post, follow me on twitter @Briana_fierce! I post daily here on my life happenings! :-)

Special Delivery lyrics By Briana Booker

Special Delivery

Chorus
So let me hit you off with my special delivery.
Pack it. Cock it. Extra clips every time.
I’ll reload and explode so my haters can feel the heat.
So let me break you off with my special delivery.


Verse 1
Daddy always told me to aim for the top.
Mama always told me don’t ever settle for less than my worth.
But yes, I must admit,
It took some mistakes and growing a back-bone, to get to the point where I understood every word of their wisdom.

Verse 2
I’m tried of being on the ground, the ground is boring,
I’m ready to be a sun; the low-life bullshit just ain’t cutting it.
God gave me a gift that I’m ready to unwrap. Take the world for a spin. I’m ready to go up to bat.

Verse 3
I gotta lotta haters. I gotta lotta of fans. Neither stops my hunger, my mission to be the best.
The best at this lyrical Jazz flow,
The realest and illiest bitch on this platform.

Verse 4
21, they tell me the sky is the limit, I believe it. I know I’m my only limit.
I love the assholes and the bitches, God created them to keep up my persistence,
at my dreams,
at my life,
I’ll never stop aiming towards my ambitions.

Verse 5
I laugh at the clowns. I wave at the tricks. I glance at the instigators; I’m ready to get rich.

Verse 6
Shy girl from Bmore, that’s what I use to be.
Now I’m all Breezy baby, you’re guilty pleasure is me.
I’m a gift, I’m a curse to your world.
I’m not just your average. I’m no ordinary girl.

Chorus
So let me hit you off with my special delivery.
Pack it. Cock it. Extra clips every time.
I’ll reload and explode so my haters can feel the heat.
So let me break you off with my special delivery.

So let me break you off with my special delivery.
I’m ready to flow, I’m ready to blow. Feel the rush, when you puff on my special delivery. Start runnin because I’m comin.
