Freedom, Thoughts

Shattered Dreams

July 21, 2019 J Tyes

Like the rest of the world, I have had dreams that have died and ripped holes into my heart. It hurts when your dreams can be destroyed by single moments or the inability to perform. The world is filled with people who tell you “if you work hard enough, your dreams can come true.” There… Continue reading Shattered Dreams

You are…

June 22, 2019 J Tyes

Lately, I have seen many of my mom friends posting memes or pictures containing a quote similar to: "Don't tell mom she looks tired because she already knows. Tell her she's doing a great job because she may not know." It's true. We go about our lives, thinking the worse of ourselves. We only see… Continue reading You are…

See yourself with new eyes

January 20, 2019 J Tyes

Stop. Right. There. If you can, step in front of a mirror, take a look at yourself. A GOOD look at yourself. What do you see? Most people would see this flaw and that flaw. But we are more than our flaws. I have always criticized myself for what I perceived were my weaknesses. This… Continue reading See yourself with new eyes

Be true to you!

November 18, 2018November 18, 2018 J Tyes

Social media has been a struggle for me recently. As an indie author and blogger, it is up to me to market my products and get noticed.  I published my first book this year but I haven't been marketing it as I should. I have been trying to gain more followers so that I could… Continue reading Be true to you!
