Born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida, I am the youngest of eight siblings. My father has passed away, but my parents, both everyday people and U.S. Army veterans, instilled strong values in me. I graduated from Jean Ribault Senior High School and went on to earn my bachelor's degree in English with an emphasis in professional writing, graduating cum laude from Grand Canyon University. Currently, I am an Avon independent sales ambassador. I am a Christian, a proud Florida girl, and an encourager. As a millennial, blogger, sports fan, foodie, disabled woman, word search enthusiast, ambivert, and everyday woman, I embrace my multifaceted identity. I live in Jacksonville with my mom, cherishing my roots and the vibrant community that shapes me.

Wouldn’t it Be Beautiful by Patti LaBelle

Robin Sykes

Wouldn’t it be beautiful?
Wouldn’t it be beautiful?
Wouldn’t it be beautiful?
Wouldn’t it be beautiful?

If we can love each other
Realize we’re sisters and brothers
Take care of our babies
Teach them to respect one another.

If the nations of the world could start a peace
We’ll have no more war
If the Christian, Muslim, Jew
Could learn to love each other too.

Oh, if people stop bombing the planes
Stop hurting all these innocent people
The communist, catholics too
Could learn to love each other too.

Wouldn’t it be beautiful?
Wouldn’t it be beautiful?
Wouldn’t it be beautiful?
Wouldn’t it be beautiful?

I AM… WHO I AM. I am ME. I am Courageous. I am fierce. I am excellence. I am love, peace and harmony. I am a GIFT to the world. I am committed to myself, my future, my love, my happiness and my joy. It can not be taken or Stolen by anyone for any reason. I AM not perfect, but I accept my imperfections perfectly. I am NOT What people think, I am WHO I think I AM. I am a Valuable Woman. I am a powerful woman. I am a deserving woman. I am a worthy woman. I am an extraordinary woman. God made me that way. Therefore NO WEAPON formed against me shall prosper- not today, not tomorrow or the next day or the next year. I AM NOT a quitter, I AM NOT defeated, I AM NOT unworthy, I AM NOT Confused, I AM NOT weak, I AM NOT depressed, I AM NOT unloved, I AM NOT doubt. I AM NOT fear, I AM NOT drama, I AM NOT negativity. I am BEING and BECOMING the greatest that ever lived. I AM who I AM. I am the woman in the mirror. I am a reflection of all that I AM and all that I dream to be. I AM ME and ME is WHO I AM. I AM all that I Chose to be. And tonight, I Chose to be ME.
