Ms Wyoming World Universal
I have not been very active on my blog lately to post about my current title, but I just wanted to take a moment to do that now. I currently hold the title of Ms. Wyoming World Universal & I will be returning home to New Orleans, LA to compete for the national title of Ms. USA World Universal in less than two weeks! I am very excited for this journey with this brand new pageant system! I have already met so many amazing women from all around the country & even globe. These women are driven, independent, strong, creative, beautiful and so inspiring! I have already gained so much from this experience & hope that I continue to grow through this process. I hope that you will support me along my journey. You can follow my Facebook page here:

Also, I would really appreciate your votes for People’s Choice. The winner of People’s Choice is guaranteed a spot in the finals as well as receives a donation to the charity of her choice. The charity I have chosen is B the Difference. B the Difference is a nonprofit organization created by the sisters of my late friend Brandon to raise funds/awareness for research for a cure for neurofibromatosis (NF). B the Difference provides families of children with NF the opportunity to go on “B Happy” trips where they are able to escape the monotonous routine of doctors & treatments so they can relax like everyone deserves.

Ethel Louise Trehern 12/14/21-5/15/20
My grandma passed away Friday night at 7pm. She prayed for me & thanked God for my gift of writing in her final prayer. The following morning I was asked to write something for her service. This is what I wrote that day…
Ethel Louise:
Those who knew her
called her Wese
A woman of great character
Missions had her heart
She witnessed to an alcoholic
& gave a minister his start
She was thirteen at the time
& from there her faith just grew
She taught classes at the same church
where she played piano too
She raised a family filled with the love
of her Father up above
She prayed to Him from here on Earth
so that others may know their worth
Cooking was her hobby
She made recipes everyone knew
Sweet rolls with pink icing
had people lined up before she was through
Invited to the National Pillsbury Cook-off
in Washington D.C.
Her lemon supreme cake was chosen
& a brand new kitchen she received
Sharp as a tack ’til her last breath
She was able bodied & giving
She loved doing things for others
That made her life worth living
Her family was her pride & joy
Her heavenly Father the Head of House
She resides in His kingdom now
making up the years lost with her spouse
A commendable woman
for ninety-eight & a half years
Memories will be joyous
though at this time we shed tears
She leaves behind a legacy
Some massive shoes to fill
I hope when she looks down
That pride is what she feels
WAKE UP! You have been BRAINWASHED!
To quote my Instagram post today…
“So here’s the deal. We all know the media is corrupt. It’s a web of lies distorting the truth. These days it’s nearly impossible to dig up the truth. Everything we are told is controlled. Manipulated. By some of the people we have come to know & trust the most! Technology can be utilized as a powerful tool in psychological warfare. & as technology advances, that power only increases. I’m by no means saying you can’t trust anyone or that all technology is bad. But I urge you, to think. Use independent thought. Question things that don’t seem right. The truth often makes more sense than the lies that just don’t add up. People joke about not believing everything you read on the internet. But honestly, that’s no joke! Learn about those celebrities, politicians, even religious leaders that you look up too. They may not be who you think they are.”
I’m not going to tell you what to believe or not to believe. That’s exactly the opposite of the point I am trying to make here. I don’t want to force my opinions on you. But there are entities & organizations out there who do! Everything fed to you though all forms of media is filtered. You only see what they want you to see & they make it impossible to find factual information. The more you research, outside of just your mainstream newsfeed, the more you will see that a lot of what we are told does not add up. It’s not easy to find answers, they are covered well. & those who try to bring the truth to light are silenced, often permanently. Those in power want you to remain oblivious. They give you the illusion of independent thought to choose your own belief system, but everything they are serving to you is only what they want you to see. We have become so conditioned to this technological mind control, so desensitized to the realities of this world. It is time to WAKE UP! Think for YOURSELF! See what is actually happening out there. There are dark forces at work, but there is still light in this world. We just have to harness the light & use it to smother the darkness. ❤

New Year Day 2020
I forgot to post here that I uploaded another YouTube video last Wednesday, New Year Day. Here is the link! ❤
1st REAL Vlog Post
Two & a half months after I ventured to post my intro vlog video on YouTube, I have FINALLY decided to post another. I swear I am going to make this a more routine thing from here on out! Like the old country song says, “Why put off ’til tomorrow what you could get done today?” I decided to post, ready or not, it was time to put something out there! There was a lot more I wanted to say than I did in this video, but that’s okay. For now, I am just trying to get comfortable in front of the camera & putting myself out there, which is WAY outside my comfort zone I can quite assure you! My editing techniques will get better as well, I promise. So stick with me, we will get through this! ❤
Trudging Towards the Light!
I HATE the way I’ve been feeling lately, but I am DETERMINED to get better. I got closure on a previous relationship last night. It was extremely painful, but I am finally going to be able to let go. Somehow, through that pain I was able to go out & run today, & tonight I started a great new motivational book called Atomic Habits by James Clear. I am working on rekindling my passion for life & the person I once was. I am a Leo & I want to be that roaring lioness once more. I am going to retrain my mind to be the person I wish to become. So stay tuned because there is more on that to come. Also, I WILL be working on the podcast I promised to start a while back. Thank you for your patience with me through my dark period. ❤
Morose
I haven’t been feeling myself lately, & for that I am truly sorry! I haven’t been writing at all lately, not for quite some time. I decided to do something about that tonight. This poem just goes to show that no one is happy & positive all the time. No matter how hard we may try, we all get down. We all have bad days. We all go through slumps. Sometimes what we need is solidarity. To know that we are not alone. I am hoping that maybe someone can relate to what I wrote tonight. No matter what you may be feeling, I promise you there is someone out there who feels the same way! So today I decided to write. I knew what came out of my fingertips wouldn’t be joyful. But, writing has always been my escape. It is what makes me, me. I knew that the longer I put off writing the longer I’d feel dead inside. So I did the only thing I knew to do & let me mind escape from my head onto the page. ❤ This was the result:
Once a girl full of wonder
Now mobile, breathing corpse
Go to work, then come home
Nothing happens but remorse
Holidays are nonexistent
Feelings just the same
Eating to postpone the grave
In this body devoid of flame
Her life perceived as over
No writing & no thoughts
Ceasing to create her own
How can this cycle be stopped?
Swept into imaginary worlds
Through books & in her dreams
Scrolling through her phone
Wasting time staring at memes
What happened to the soul
That sparkled like a diamond
In the society, which is rough?
Her light diminished
Her world now dark
When will it be enough?
They say the spirit is eternal
That it goes beyond the grave
But, what happens when the spirit
Becomes the body’s slave?
