Got Faith?

   Have you ever had those times where something pops into your mind out of the blue, and then you can’t shake it for days or maybe even weeks to come? A song, a quote, a movie, anything? A few weeks ago this happened to me. A Bible verse popped into my mind so randomly […]

Saying what needs to be said

I try to leave my blog as unbiased as possible. Simply because I want this to be a place where races and religions aren’t taken into consideration because we’re all people.

A Little Insight

      After looking over the blog stats a few days ago, I was filled with joy at the fact that these words have reached across the globe to various countries. But once the joy subsided a bit, I then had to face an internal conflict. I know that not everyone believes in God […]

Thank you

There are very few things that can be accomplished without the help of others. Less than a month ago I started this blog for the sole purpose of helping others while also helping myself through writing. From Queen to Queens (or FQ2Q as some have coined it) has exceeded my expectations tenfold. I never thought […]
