Happy Birthday to my Mother

Wishing the Happiest of Birthdays to the most dutiful, inspiring and honorable mother. Thank-you for the many sacrifices you have made through the years, being a resolute beacon of light which has sustained me. Because of you, I have been bestowed a vast amount of knowledge and insight which walks alongside me each day. You have gifted me a deep appreciation for education and learning, especially as I continue into college. With you being a single mother since I was eight, I have watched you suffer, yet hold the strongest conviction in faith. In times of complete darkness, you had the insight to keep me going in ballet and fight excruciatingly to homeschool me. I love you more than you will ever know, and I am thankful to God, Jesus Christ and all the angels and saints for blessing me with you as my mother. You are the most dignified and principled woman I know, not to mention your incredible service in Law Enforcement. 


                                                                   My mother in uniform 


You are the Janeway to Seven and the Lursa to B'etor. The Butterbean to the Baby Butterbean. All our adventures, hardships and tribulations always had levity because of you. I hold and respect deep in my heart and want to continue your legacy. Your strength is unwavering and your faith forever steadfast. You are my wonderful Mama, Munch and Moogie. Thank-you for giving me life. May God always bless and protect you. Happy Birthday! 


                                                                     Me and my Mother

    Please wish your mother a happy birthday for me! Like you, I was raised by a single mom, as my parents divorced when I was very young. Please express to her my gratitude for dutifully raising you as a responsible, caring and devoted young woman. I know it's never easy for mothers to raise children alone, but if anyone can do it, they can.

A Royal Love: Louis and Antoinette

Image
In honor of the last day in February, here is a short story of the love story between King Louis and Queen Marie Antoinette of France. Although this pair started off as two foreigners to each other, their bond would hold them together in the most grievous hour. Let us take a moment and learn of this royal love.              King Louis XVI by Joesph Duplessis and Queen Marie Antoinette by Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun. On May 16, 1770, Dauphin Louis of France married  Archduchess Maria Antonia Josepha Joanna (Marie Antoinette) in the Royal Chapel of Versailles. On their wedding night, the adolescents went to bed together, yet their marriage was not consummated. It is reported that either the Louis and Antoinette did not know what to do, or decided to remain platonic spouses as they grew to personally know each other. For the next years, the pair learned their likes and dislikes as they were young adults in a foreign relationship. In 1774, Louis and Antoinette became king and queen

Chakotay and Seven of Nine: An Unbreakable Link

Image
In commemoration with  Valentine's Day, I decided to write an article on my favorite "Star Trek" pairing: Chakotay and Seven of Nine. Through social media, I have seen this fictional couple bear the brunt of despise, hatred and retaliation. On the other hand, I have always seen a unique  relationship of two individuals in the future. From the moment they appeared on screen together I thought they had instant chemistry. The two characters showed that love is unconditional and just because a first meeting is not pleasant, love can bloom in the most unbeknownst manner. I hope this following article can shed light on their relationship and why they matter.  With patience and time, a spiritual person like Chakotay and a logical scientist like Seven formed a tender bond and left an impact as a tasteful and wholesome romance. Chakotay was able to understand a facet of Seven that no other crewman could. In return, she honored and respected him. Starting from season 4 through seas

The Case for Space

Image
On  April 19, 2021, the NASA robotic helicopter "Ingenuity" completed a successful flight on the surface of Mars. This historical event catapulted human spaceflight and engineering as an Earth produced vehicle took flight on its own while located on a different planet. Never before had mankind achieved such a feat beyond Earth.  " Ingenuity " hovers above the surface of Mars in this historic image. (NASA) Ever since I was a small child, I have always looked to the stars. My earliest memories of learning about space were around the age of four when I would look outside and see the planets Mars and Venus beside the Moon. As I grew older, I would collect books on the wonders of space and God’s incredible creation of nebulae, the solar system and planets beyond our galaxy. Being homeschooled, I was fortunate to accumulate fascinating picture-filled books which I still have to this day. Throughout my later homeschooled years, my mother always noted how Earth’s Moon was s
