First Post Excitement!!

Hey loves!! I woke up one morning and decided to create a blog, lol, Well, it was really the realization that my Facebook posts were a little too long and too deep and random. I felt like I needed to find a different way to express my thoughts,feelings, etc. to the world. Since this is my first post, I 'll introduce myself...
I'm La'Shon but my friends and loved ones call me Shonie. I like to think that I'm Sassy.Honest.Optimistic.Nurturing.Inspiring.and Empowering! See? SHONIE! Get it?! A few months ago, I began this journey, a journey of self-discovery. I wanted to get to know myself...really get to know myself. Working in the mental health field has opened my eyes to the reality of brokenness. Many are broken because of so many different factors (factors that I'll discuss in later posts). I decided that I wanted to do all that I could to take care of ME because taking care of yourself first, my friends, is the only way you'll be able to take care of others. I mean, I'm only 23 years old (I'll be 24 in a few weeks, YAY) and NOW is the best time to begin this type of journey. Because I am constantly looking for inspiration through people and things, I have come across so many different things/people that I want to share!! I figured that writing a blog would be the best way to share everything that I've learned and things that I'm still learning and have yet to learn. I'll be discussing everything from love to fashion to inspiration to lipstick (I love lipstick!). I'm excited about my blog and everyone reading it! I'm happy about my journey and  my hope is to inspire others to begin their own journey of self-discovery. Hope you're ready for the journey loves!! Let's Go!!


Xo,
Shonie

What do you want?!

Hey my loves!! How are you?! :-) I hope you're doing well! I wanted to ask you a question,  kinda make you think for a moment.... what do you want? What do you want out of life,  relationships,  love,  yourself,  others? What do you want? Iyanla Vanzant (one of my favorites) wrote,  "Very often,  we only have chaos in our lives because we don't know what we want. By default,  uncertainty attracts uneasiness. " This statement was very powerful to me because it spoke to the uneasiness I was feeling at that present moment.  I did not know what I wanted... out of ANYTHING! I had a clue or an inkling but nothing solid. I needed to figure out what I wanted and make it plain, to myself and others. By me not knowing how to or what to do to figure out exactly what I wanted,  caused so much confusion in my life.  Unnecessary arguments and unnecessary headaches.  I had to take the time to sit down and figure out what I wanted.  Grant...

Birthday Blessing

Hello my loves!!! Today is my birthday YAY!!! I'm super excited I just love birthdays and I especially LOVE mine!! I'm truly thankful that God allowed me to see my 24th birthday! From 23 to 24, I can honestly say that I have done more growing (mentally, emotionally, and spiritually) than the last 5 years of my life. So, last week I went to the doctor for my annual check up, everything went well until my doctor discovered lumps in both my breasts. Initially I was like, WAIT check again, maybe it's something else...you've said before they were lumpy. But this time she said she felt something a little different and wanted me to go to the hospital to get a sonogram. I was like here I am...23 and I have to get extra stuff done to make sure that I'm o.k., poor me! Then I thought Oh no! Not poor me! Strong me! Here I am already receiving bad news from myself! Right then and there I said a prayer that everything WILL be alright and that I will receive good news. After I sai...
