Play Your Heart Away
My piano playing is the main thing I do. I get motivated even standing next to a player piano, I want to start a piano channel. Each week I will add more songs. I decided to add this this because one day I when I had a business in a old building something strange happened. One day when no one there I went into the storage area and it was very dusty. There was a lot of old old furniture. I looked around and in the back behind everything there was a very old piano. At that time, I did not have a piano at home. Each day after I finished my work I stuck in that back room and played that Piano. I even offered to buy the Piano, but the owner was not ready to sell. It was a dusty piano and it needed to be tuned. Why is Piano my passion? I truly believe I can play but some of my sibling seem to differ. But one day in that dusty storage area as I played, and heard someone from the distance. It was a little boy about 10 years old. It just kept applauding me. I accepted yes maybe I do have some talent. Children are the most honest judges. A few years ago, my sister gave a tea and I played. I felt all were surprised I could play as good as I played. But something clicked, my nieces like when I play. When they were babies, I would play quietly all night and they always love to hear me play. Now they are now all adults, and they still like to hear me play. I had them over and then they said say, “Please Auntie play for us”. I want to love my passion. I learned that people who want to see me happy are the ones who like to hear me play. Love the passion of piano playing, partially its love of the notes are they harmonize. I can sign also but my vocal is loud. My piano at one time got turned toward the wall, yes where I could not play. But why would one penalize the instrument that a musician love. Then I moved to another piano house. I said pretend you are blind and make your way around this place. The room I was rented before belonged to a blind woman. As I walked as if wearing a blind fold, I walked down to the piano room. Everyone was sleep, I started to play and the whole house came awake. The pianist is here she is playing our song. The last next sneak play I was out on my home homeless, staying in an Airbnb. I stayed the night with a friend, and she had trainer come in the morning. She had the most beautiful piano and while she was training, and her baby was sleep I played her beautiful piano. I was so upbuilt with the quality of the sound. I can motivate my members with sounds from different pianos and organs. While out and renting a room in the home where I pretended to be blind on many a night, I drank a full bottle of wine and played for many hour at a time The result I became a happy soul and generous soul. My heartbeat with every key stroke, the sounds permeated the air. One excursion was in Leimert Park Los Angeles. This coffee shop had a piano I said I must go play. I sat with a cup of coffee and start playing those keys. A pretty lady came and leaned over the Piano, she said wow Lady you can really play. My passion my love the keys and the sound of the Piano.

Water on The Brain
Water and the sand what a lovely plan. So many sandcastles. I want to focus on all the Beaches. I love the beach I go walk, ride and listen to the waves. My passion is strong and each week I will let my followers enjoy yet another vision of the waters as they live within the sea. All the members are going to love the tranquility of the seas. Focus will also be on the birds. The birds as they watch the sea. Pictures will be provided and comparison to other area of water. When I was young, I wanted to get married on a Rock on Venice Beach. That passion left me overwhelmed when my first finance got cold feet and I had to call off the New Year’s Day wedding. The passion also has to do with love of lakes. The Lake Mead in Vegas I visited with two of my husbands, but I went to Vegas with all three. When the heart throbs for the water. In my early twenties I went every Sunday to Marina Del Rey and took a boat ride with my little beautiful Spanish daughter, she had hair to her butt. Each time I went on my boat ride I had a cup of wine. It was the time of my life. I finally met me second husband and I told myself I want a boat reception. Yes, I did it I took a boat out San Pedro with 150 guests. It was weird no family member came. Well, my love for water did not stop to grow. Next, I went to Maui to check out those waters. Snorkeling and scuba diving came next. Hubby was a diver so after Hawaii in his ear drums almost bursting. We headed to Belize to see how clear the water is. Then we road on a canoe to the Historical ruins. Our final plan was to head to the Island of San Pedro. Where road is it was too small for regular cars. San Pedro was pretty and that led me to the Black Hole. The second time in Hawaii when tide was low and visitors minimal, I planned a sailboat trip. When we went to board the boat, it was amazing. Only be and my husband had the whole boat. When were out on the sea the captain let my husband get out and swim? All I can say is that it was amazing. All who follow me know that I love the water and the sea. I also love lakes and the animals who are there. Why am I unique. Well, when I was nine years old, I attend honor camp and one of the classes was swimming. The other girls they could not believe I could not swim. They pushed me in and I almost drowned. To this day I cannot swim. The last story to motivate you in my direction. The last day in Cancun we were scheduled for a dangerous water ride. We go up and headed to the event, but they did not allow us to go out. I went back to the hotel room to pack and told my husband you go ahead; my hubby was reckless at times so he went without me. Remember two he could swim like a fish. But suddenly, I heard ambulance and my husband had lost control of the water bike and almost drown. What would have happened to me if I went on that ride. I do think I could have drowned and died. I am motivated to motivate and I have many more water stories for my members…………..swim deep.

For many years they were spent on just trying to have a baby. I attended some baby showers and than felt again the pain of not fitting in. Being a motherless women in that since. I think one of the biggest times the Beauty and The Beast feeling took over. It was not that I was trying to fit in but when I hung out with my husband and his son I just pretended to be his Mom. If the son had not cleared it up well I would have fit in I was pretending to be a Mom. Being a stepmother is different with my 2nd husband was easier. I was out one day with my Sister and her that day her husband, she had just found out she was pregnant. Again, I did not fit in because my 2nd husband of over 10 years tells everybody at the restaurant table I could have kids. I was total outcast, I felt shocked. I think the fact that I was married three times it makes people wonder. Why does she not have kids? Believe me all efforts were put forth. I got into a lot of trouble in my life when I found my 3rd husband. The problem of not fitting in but thinking now I will fit in. I will marry my 3rd love and 3rd husband. He was suppose to be my first husband. Ok thats it a women being left at the Altar after the invitations went out. She really never really fits in after that.

The problem came when men decided the Beast of the race to involve themselves with the under developed beauty. She may be damaged and left in a space only she can trace. But the good thing about all of this. My 2nd and 3rd husband both have a girl and a boy. And my first husband had zero children. I must now try to fit in with life after menopause. The nurturing effect of motherhood from observation and the extent of time the mother has to spend with the child proved to me that it is something different. I still find it hard to fit in. I have two stepchildren I met only once in 13years. Two step grandchildren I have never met. Both the names of my 2nd and 3rd husbands has been preserved. My special bond has been with my nieces and nephews. I have so many I cannot number. I have many great grand sons and great grand daughters. So many to love and to hold. The difference for me I never had to take a child home and hold a raise as there only caretaker. So I look to my Maker and say thank you for taking care of Me. Beauty is only skin deep because young girls get pained, raped and suffocated. You never know what happened to a Barren Women. Most are not born that way.

Forced A Fit
When life got tough, and I no longer had place to lay my head. I was so exhausted and had gotten just evicted. I had my own firm for over 8 years, but this was 2008. Once I closed my loan and real estate business I just could not fit in anymore. I went on this interview and I was like the invisible man. I was speaking to the receptionist, but it seemed she could not hear me. I was staying with a family member but they wanted to have fun and all I could do was sleep; I was forced to go drinking in a club in which I always prevented. I got so drunk I struck my sister. I was not a fit, the last time I went out with my second husband to a club I got drunk and started dancing with another man. A lot of puzzle pieces but non was the fit. I was determined to stay alive and strive. I needed income so although I was a licensed real estate agent, I was desperate. I took a job at a toner company as a telemarketer, and I had to report at 5am. I made it to work but I could not stay awake, so they let me go after two weeks. It was difficult times indeed. The worst was a firm in downtown Los Angeles. I came to work every day and maintained the best numbers but I did not fit in. A worker who I was sitting next to was sleeping with staff and using all types of profanity. I just did not fit. One employee 30 years my junior had it in for me and she was very disrespectful. She wanted to be my boss. So, one day as I was leaving work she followed me and started to call names. She called me old lady with no purpose. She and a coworker followed me to my car and tried to fight me. My husband had picked me up fearful as well for his life. I tried to fit in, but they just did not accept me. I finally left that job they wanted to just see how I did 1000 calls day as I did for my previous firm. Not fitting in the call center world took it toil at my last assignment where I spent four years as an outcast. In order to function I hade to wear ear plugs every day, the noise was loud. Although I was a producer, they refused to assign me a permanent desk. On several occasion staff call me out of my name and I was sent home for no reason. I will tell you now in the workplace if it doesn’t fit don’t force it. At that last situation even when going to restroom a co-worker pushed me. I did all I could not to retaliate. I kept trying to fit myself in environments where both the noise and the energy was not healthy for me. I was rejected because I did not smoke or curse along with them. And my strong work ethics irritated the other workers. I really wanted to fit in so I asked my manager if they had suggestions. I prayed to God, please help me God I want to fit in. Then one day when I woke up happy, dressed very pretty I get to my job and the seat I saved and put my name on they say we took your name off. The label was thrown in a nearby trash can. I got a little loud and said after 4 years I cannot know where I sit. This was a commission only position and I made zero the day before. I came to sit where I left my name, but they were rude they said go home and come back tomorrow. I left went to car and cried very hard, I just did not fit my friend. The End
