I simply stop writing for the moment. Again, I live an intuition guided life, if something isn't coming naturally with fluidity, i don't force it because it means that it's not meant to be at that exact moment. When following your intuition, you will be guided and things will flow effortlessly.

It is when i get responses from people telling me that my words are exactly what they needed to hear at that moment. It is when people tell me that I have inspired them to get back to their own writing. It is when i get responses of gratitude for sharing my truths with the world unapologetically. The best thing for me is the ability to touch peoples lives positively by expressing myself, sharing my traumas and being an example of hope.

My advice for anybody "aspiring" to do anything is to listen to your intuition. Everything isn't for everybody, we all have talents and a purpose to serve utilizing those talents. If something seems like its not flowing easily for you, even if you're good at it, the universe probably has something better planned for you. My advice is to release all expectations of what you think you should write and write what your gut tells you to. That is the universe trying to deliver a message through you.

It's called #PEOPLELIKEUS. I am using the hashtag in the title because it is the root of all my posts, it's where it all began. When I reached a point in my life of self realization and I began to unlearn everything I thought I knew about myself so that i could remember who i really was, there was an onslaught of lessons and epiphanies. Upon sharing these epiphanies with others, i realized that so many people felt like me and that "people like us" go through the things we do for very specific reasons. My reason for this book is to help people remember who they are and assist them through the confusing stages of this journey that I had to figure out myself. I have seen proof that this message needs to reach the masses and i feel like when it does, the earth will enter a new dimension of change more than it already has. My purpose for this book is to aid humanity in ascension by speaking about truths that most don't want to discuss. My goal isn't to be the most inspirational author, but the most honest, encouraging others to do the same. Change begins with truth.

Everyday I experience struggles or triumphs big or small and everyday knowledge fills my mind of how to live through these occurrences, knowledge that comes directly from our source, the universe/ god. I get excited when information floods my mind so much that I have to start getting it out because i know that it will be useful to at least one person at some point in time. This is part of my purpose in this life and i will serve my purpose to the best of my ability. I do not plan any of my publications, they sort of just happen, that thought alone is inspiring enough for me to just listen to my intuition and write when I'm prompted to. Sometimes I am awakened in the middle of sleep with a message to type, this is my intuition, my connection to the universe, my inspiration.

I believe that I have endured things in my life to obtain the knowledge to share with people that may be struggling with some of the same issues. My last short publication was a sort of intro to my main project in the sense of giving people a glimpse of where I'm coming from. I wasn't planning on releasing it, however, i live an intuition guided life, so when I'm urged to release something, i do, with the belief that somebody needs to hear the message at that moment in their life.
