Journaling...🌺🦋

Quite frankly, writing my thoughts and ideas have been difficult to do these past few months. It is even more difficult to create content when you lose inspiration ✨️ 😔 Writing has always been a part of me. It is a passion maybe... In fact, May and June have been hard time in my life. No good news at all and the worst was losing one of my dear aunts. Receiving the news from home was so so heartbreaking💔 I can never forget that afternoon and I wrote it on my calendar 📅 In my blog here I often shared family memories and how my aunts ( my Mom's sisters) are my Mothers and my uncles are my Fathers. I grew up seeing them often and my late dear aunt was often meeting us in Paris international airport every summer when she was living there at the time. My aunts and uncles are very dear to me. In difficult times when I needed directions and guidance in decision making, I would go to seek advices from them. Their words were even more important to me since my Dad passed away in 2017. when i was back home 🏡 my Mothers were all there for me during my pregnancy and after I gave birth to my son. I had a strong family support system even if my Mom and my siblings were not there in my country. My cousins are my siblings so i was not alone at all. My aunt would often bake good cakes for me and cooking my home country recipes. It was delicious!! My Mom came to see me for two months and then left few days after I gave birth. My other aunt did to me our traditional spa with hot water for Women who just gave birth. It was a special experience i must admit. It wasn't easy at all😅 but it is a part of my culture!🤷‍♀️ My beloved aunt passed away 😢 in very unexpected way and difficult condition. Like I have always said my country has a negligent Healthcare system.No matter what you can do, you have more chance to leave this world before God's time because of the conditions in hospital, lack of materials and the way they take care of you there. These are the reasons why I can't ignore the suffering we in my country are going through and it is not acceptable! After receiving the news on a phone call that afternoon, the word crying was not enough because I cried so much for days to the point where I didn't have any more tears and lost my voice. I have no more words but pain. Sleeping was not possible because it was a something thatI could not accept. The sad part is, we are not the only family who went through that and it is still happening for many others but what can we do? I can't recall the pain I felt when I lost also my grand uncle the year I went back home. I was going to visit him as much as I could bc he lived far from where i was staying. Until the day he passed away. His end was so painful once again due to the conditions in hospital. I, myself had my deceiving and painful experience at the hospitals back home when I went back. I can say the Healthcare system was way better in the old days. Unfortunately, today it is just a ...no comment. ( I keep it for myself) Therefore, journaling has been very difficult these past two months honestly After also receiving the news that my divorce was finalized, I knew that I had to get back on my feet and understand that I must move on. It is a total change and No, it is not a failure for me but a new beginning. I have learned so much from that experience and I will never make the same mistakes again in my life. Choosing the right partner is crucial and so important for your well being. I really understood later as i was searching and reading and praying that marriage is a Mission. It is two people who work together to accomplish a Mission sent by God. That is why we do not get married anyhow. We don't get married bc we have feelings only but we get married bc we have a call together. When I realized later I knew I wasn't in the right place and I made sense... BTW marriage is not the end of the world 🌎 so is divorce 🤷‍♀️ It is a new beginning... I just hope to be a good mother to my son.

I am trying to see how i can start over and make things right the best I can. Now, I am back Journaling and trying to refresh my mind and create content for discussions as usual because I have so Much in my mind! I have so much to talk about. It takes time to film and edit videos. Sometimes I can be lazy when I have to juggle different tasks. Writing ✍️ again and again. This year , this summer☀️ we are not moving at all. No specific trips at all. My son started his activities and me...what about me? I take care of myself🦋🦋 and I must take care of myself. 🌺🌺🌞🌞🌞🌺🌺🌺🌞🌞🌞🌞❤️❤️❤️❤️ I see beautiful pictures of friends on social media who are enjoying their time in Summertime trips. It is so nice to see pictures of places in Europe ( France, Italy, Greece..) and those who went to more tropical vibes like in Kenya, Seychelles, Comores, Tanzania, Mauritius... I dream through their pictures and i am so happy for them. I even saw a lady that I often see who went to visit India, South Korea, and now in Japan. Summer is the best time! This is so nice! i love looking at these beautiful trips and pictures ❤️🙏 Summertime makes families happy, Summertime makes lovers❤️ happy. That's good!😊 I am not sad at all because i believe that there is a time for everything.

My time now is to focus on me and my child. My time now is to see how to embrace the new life ahead of me. Wipe my tears and get back on my feet🤧 Sometimes difficult times are blessings. I believe in God and I know He has a plan for my life. Rise and Shine🌺☀️ He makes all things new and beautiful in his time. I celebrate with those who are celebrating 🍾 I am happy for those who are happy 😊 and in Love ❤️ because we all have our time! I can only move forward. There is no looking back. There is a time for everything. A time to laugh, a time to cry , a time to be happy, a time to be disappointed, a time to be sad and life goes on. All in all, we learn from each experience. Thank you for reading. 🌺🌺and I send you Love ❤️

Bravo Coco!!

(these are not my pictures) Bravo Coco! Je suis trop fiere de toi! 🇫🇷 Ha! Ben oui! La p'tite Coco a gagne le Roland Garros!! Et comment?! so proud to see her winning 🏆 the Roland Garros this year 🙌 what an achievement! She deserves it! Seeing her growing up and improving her skill through the years in tennis 🎾 is absolutely amazing! We know how difficult the Roland Garros is. Yes it is! Also as a Black woman it really moves me because it means so much to the little girl that I was to the adult woman that I am today who watched the French Open all my life. Seeing another Black woman to that level since Serena Williams winning this gramd slam is amazing! I grew up watching mainly White women tennis 🎾 players that I admired still today but seeing a person looking like me means a lot too😊 Bravo Coco! 🇫🇷🙌 this victory will also inspire other young American girls who dream to play professional tennis. Everything is possible if you believe and if you work hard. My sister was so happy when she called me from France on the phone. We were all watching that finals yesterday. We never miss the Roland Garros🏸. No, you can't miss it! Not only it is the perfect time to be in Paris. The best time to be in France because yes, not only that it is Summertime but it was the Festival of Cannes, the Amfar. And, wait! do not forget the Tour de France 2025 will start in July.) I won't write an article about it because I did not go to France this year but you can still look my old post about the Tour de France when they went to the city where my family lives. We saw the runners the bicycles, I took videos and pictures of them. The Tour de France starts in a city to end in Paris always and we all know that. O! Dear, I am sitting here and dreaming about the South of France 🇫🇷 with its beautiful landscapes, the grasshoppers singing, the blue water, the nature, the cities, the wonderful people and the amazing French gastronomy. O!La boheme☀️! Ok! Enough! Back to our dear Coco!

Coco Gauff beat the current world number 1 tennis player, Aryna Salabenka on Saturday 6-7. 6-2, 6-4 quel exploit!! This is Coco' second grand slams.Coco became the first American to win the French Open women's title since Serena Williams in 2015. Way to go Coco!! She is only twenty-one and, she will be winning more trophies. The year when Serena Williams won the French Open was so emotional. I was on my feet through the all final match. Wow!! winning the French Open is a huge achievement in tennis! I remember when she did her come back at the Roland Garros after her pregnancy, she wore these NIKE amazing outfits made by Virgil Abloh. Serena Williams is one of the best tennis players we ever had! Also the Roland Garros always reminds me of the time when Yannick Noah won in the early 80's. It was cra-zy!!!! Since then, no more French tennis players won it but we hope with time it will happen again. That was the best moment in sport this year. Thank you for reading and see you for the Wimbledon!

C'est mon Point de Vue!💁‍♀️

( photos souvenir) olala!! que de souvenirs dans ces photos 📸 J'etais entrain de scroll 📜 mon feed dans mon compte Facebook et jai revu ces photos 📸 souvenirs. Que le temps passe!! Le temps passe tres vite. Les annees changent et nous aussi...On change nous ne sommes plus les memes Bref! Ceci dit mon post est juste un point de vue sur certains sujets qui font trop de polémiques pour rien quand les gens sont en realité libres de leur choix. surtout dans la communaute Noire hypocrite

Au fait! J'ai un crush pour ces deux robes simples mais classiques. Je les avais prises recemment à Zara. Je pense qu elles vont avec tout. On peut les accesoiriser avec pas mal de choses. qu en pensez vous?

Personne ne devrait imposer ses gouts et ses choix sur quelqu un d'autre. On peut partager et suggerer mais on n impose pas quand il s'agit d un choix Personnel qui n'affecte nullement les autres. Ensuite quand on se rend compte que toi qui impose a l'autre, tu as des imperfections aussi. l Cette hypocrisie qui ronge notre societe voici en quelques mots mon avis sur tout ca

A vrai dire j'ai maintenant atteint un niveau ou je me fiche pas mal de ce que les gens pensent ou disent de moi. La vie on ne la vie qu une fois. Vos pensées a mon sujet ne m interessent plus. Celui qui se fait une idée de moi negative ou positive c est son probleme. Mes personnes proches me connaissent. Donc je n ai plus a me justifier de quoi que ce soit. Je sais qui je suis et le reste m importe peu aujourd'hui. C'etait tout ça mon avis sur l hypocrisie et la fausseté concernant notre communauté Noire et ça commence a m'agacer honnetement. C'est tout ça qui fait que jai de moins en moins de personnes autour de moi. Merci de m avoir lu et a bientot pour plus de discussions. Je conclus ce post avec mes shorts que je fais et partage quand je suis inspirée ❤️🌟😊

Souvenirs des 90's music. Moi j'aime 😊❤️ beaucoup cette chanson de Janet jackson ♥️ Again

Simply Discussions

(Post not reviewed and edited) Hello Dear Readers, these are the discussions of the week. I am trying my best to keep the dynamic of my youtube channel. I admit that I sometimes feel anxious and apprehensive before posting my discussion videos because I share my views, thoughts and opinions and sometimes I get negative comments. Sometimes it is worrying to womnder if people will understand you . I am really open to people who do not agree with me but the insults, bullying and cussings are a NO for me. Yes, of course I like when people understand me. I decided to share my opinions on my youtube channel because I realized that the world is not limited to me and my little life. I love sharing my family time pictures and things like that on my social media accounts but these past few years I felt like I needed to do more. When I see things happening in my community I feel like there is a lot to talk about. I see what happening in my country I am hurt and I feel like something must be said. I love my country I love my continent and it hurts to see things falling apart or going nowhere. Today, I wanted to continue the part of my conversation that I started last time but first, let me share some nice pictures of our walking time out with my son. We had a wonderful sun this Saturday. For two weeks the weather was bad here so I was so happy to enjoy this beautiful weather. I hope it will brighter your day too (smile)

These are my so uncomfortable discussions of the week Discussion part 1

At the end of the day, people need to understand that women are free to make their own choices and decisions. The pressure is always on Black women especially African women. and, I am fed up! it is exhausting. If it is not your hair it is that you must be married even if you have accomplished some of the things required by the society. When you are married then it is not enough if you have no children. When you have a child it is not enough if you do not have more than one. I mean let us BE! The pressure is constantly on us and it is not fair at all! Relaxed hair, short hair natural hair, hair with extensions or weaves etc. It doesn't matter! These are just details to me. Please let us BE! I do not think that these details are limiting our capacity to be women. Natural hair or not. How do you care about natural hair easily or fastly when you see how much it cost to do these hair in hair salons? At least 200 US dollars up to more. Can you spend that money often every two weeks? Maybe but most of the time you come out of thre disappointed because nobody respect us and you know why? Because we are the communbity who has no economical power. Black people are POOR! that's the truth! And, when later you find out that Black women hair products are expensive for nothing because they are not good for us (yes I can laugh) and they at the end, they recommend you to buy White people's hair products (the irony of fate!)... I mean what should we do? We have different types of hair in the same family. Some are softer than others. Some require more attention and care but if you live in fast city ville knowing that your hair care is a ritual what should you Do?? Then, if you are my partner or a frind and you keep hammering on my head that I need to be natural I will simply write a contract where you will agree to do my hair days and nights without complaining. The moment you do it I will go to my bedroom and open my drawer and I will remind that agreement. Then, you will learn that it is not the same things for everyone. So l;eave me alon! I do whatever I can. I stopped relaxing my hair since three years now but it is difficult to comb them often. I do not have help like in Africa where some hair services are affordable and I ;don't want to keep short hair either. I know some Black women like my cousin who was exhausted to do her hair rituals every night then she shaved everything. I was shocked and sad but it was her decision because her work does not allow her to spend long time in the bathroom just for hair care. Her hair grows so fast so to make simple and affordable she goes in hair salon men in Paris and she cut them often. She now keeps them short. When you don't know all these facts, it would be nice to respect people's decisions and choices. When you don't know all that, telling a woman how to look like is kind of disrespectful in a way and I dislike it a lot! Men are disrespectful and the nappy women hair ladies are too. No tolerance at all! But a bunch of hypocrites claiming that we should pride our African identity when they are the same puting tatoos on their skin. The same who watch porn movies. Tell me is it African culture to relax men hair? to have tatoos of whatsoever? Is it African identity to pound women's back door when you have s**x because you watch that in a White people movies. You natural hair women is it African identity to sleep with a man and live with him without being married to him? So stop this nonsense and hypocrisy! I put my weaves then what?? I will put them as much as I want. Leave us alone! If at least you were to;lerant by telling us for example do not do that excessively, we would understand but you want to impose us your opinion. If you care that much about Black women then find the cure of period cramps and pain and heavy bleeding because yes, that is one of the things that Black women especially in Africa suffer the most. If you care that much about Black African women then find the cure about high blood pressure bc Black people suffer this the most. I you care that much about African women help us with our Rights to be respected. Give us opportunity to go to school even in villages. Open clinic for women to give birth properly. Help that we do not face more of these domestic violence, abuse, injustice and feminicide that are more and more current in our society. If you care that much about us Black women, understand that the challenges that are facing Black women in the diaspora are not the same with the ones in the African continent. The History is different. Do not mix up everything bc you are confused! I do not define myself by what I wear on my body. These things are nothing. If you ask me where I am from I will tell you my story, my family story. If you care that much about us then have the decency to shut up and respect our choices, We call it elegance and love of thy neighbor. Understand that our Histories are different. I do not need ancestry.com to tell you my genealogy trees. The Black women Hair is often politicized in the diaspora and unfortunately the Black Africans bandwagon on a movement that They do not understand for the most part. So Please! Respect our choices Discussion/ Part 2

At the end of the day, if someone loves you, he or she will loves you for who you are. That person might change you little by little but what is the reason of Love? It is to love without prejudice or something like that. This discussion upset me so much because I see that people disrespect us. The real challenge of African women to me is not the hair but the decent life in our society. Have good functional governments. Being more economically powerful It is when I show my passpurt at any airport of the world, I am respected like Amnericans are respected, like Europeans are respected. I want that people respect my continent and stop laughing at us. So spare me this not important discussion bc it distracts us from the main concerns of the continent. Something I will always repeat to my son is You are who you are no matter what people will say about you. I will make sure that statement will stay strong in him when we will go back home and go again to my village spend some times there. This experience and trips are a way to tell a story to himself. The story of who he is. I will make him experience life there like I did: enjoying the river, eating food cooked on the fire woods 🪵, plantation, how to plant. My country nature; be familiar with our tropical forest. Be familiar with my culture. That will be so important in a world where people lose authenticity .That's all I have to say for today Thank you for reading and I will see you next time
