Hi, I'm Jixi. I'm a Free Verse Poet, Writer, Spoken Word Artist & Producer in New York City. I write poetic, lyric based storytelling creative poetry, comedic and dramatic anecdotes. I enjoy meeting new people, make them laugh, create fun moments in life. Say hi some time, don't be shy. :)
Chaos is wild to ask for, but I feel it’s inescapable. One day it will, you may not be ready, but how you act in the moment is telling. I have been through my fair share of chaos, and I felt it built me to be a better person, and professional as some of the chaos happened at work.
So I can say a dose of it is good to the right person or as a lesson if you learn and grow from it. The only time it’s not good, when things are more tragic than a chaos that can be fixed, I am just saying.
no more running i don’t need a quote i know you want me to leave but you know i won’t i staying right here in my cozy ways this how i feel no it’s not a phase
Dang, so you going to put on the spot like that? That’s crazy 😝. I can’t say I fully favorite I am following. Let’s say I have a top 3 favorite plus a long list more. My favorite blogger to follow is MentalNotes, her blog is fire 🔥. I am big on poetry, words, flows, imaginary and deep realism, when she writes I feel like I am in the kitchen with her. As she just prepared dinner and I am looking over at the sink from the dining table like where the hell she found these ingredients to bring this meal to life like this. I low key be wanting seconds and to go plate to sit down and eat up in my own time.
So just as how a dinner was prepared oh man, the next two Tre and Pooja, top tier author/blogger/writer, they hit you with the spices and the variety. Oh so you want sides, and elegance and the fancy plates and utensils coming out, they got it. Both of them cheffing up an assortment of meals, flavors on their sites.
Tre’s blog makes me want to step my game up everyday, how she brings you into her world and showcase life is exciting. It can be like a picture of a fork or flowers, and you be like wow, how did you capture these elements so gracefully.
Pooja blog, oh when you talk about heavy hitter, coming from all angles, real, philosophy, quotes, complete inception into every root, she showcase grace and a style they makes you wonder how to be human and thoughtful to everyone. Just bringing people and world together she shines like no other.
If you never saw their sites, you are missing out on excellence and grace and quality.
For me, this post was to be short and simple, then I remembered, I am writer too, duh, add those flairs about them. Talk your stuff, as it comes from pure admiration, respect and appreciation for the works they do in the world and the blogging community.
thanks for reading,

What’s a lesson you’ve learned recently that shifted your perspective?
The issues on mental health and freedom to change. Many people do not have capacity to change by themselves. So tell them how to be or how to change is not an easy thing. I learned so much more patience and empathy than I had before.
To all that have an issue they are working on, please be kind to yourself.
time moving like snails my life is crashing like waves didn’t like the words so i changed the page just to tell you i am trying i am just not there yet but i will
Rest is vital to a long life. We are awake a lot, and we need to recharge. Of course our bodies are still at work while sleeping but it’s needed.
I am not a doctor but to improve your sleep my key tips are this, find what comforts you. Surround yourself with that. I believe a good pillow and pillowcase like a breathable silk one does it for me. Know the pressure you need on your body in the terms of mattress. Those are really the physical I recommend.
For the mental and psychological, stress and a bad mindset are the enemy. Going to bed mad or angered is not ideal. Learn to let go, also be able to have good positive thoughts on what tomorrow can be, and with that add gratitude into day.
Lastly, knowing the value of rest is the most. Why the body needs it, will give you a drive to ensure you best use it to help your body.
Bonus, aromatherapy is way to improve. Having a happy home and bills paid. And you can probably guess the absolute last one, some good good good, enough said. 🙂
i have been confused as of late whether to go ahead or wait for the sake of peace i was showing up late for me can my oasis lack water making it just a desert or am i staying afloat just because i built a pool and a fountain of youth to be refreshingly me isolated but cool
Hit 5,000 steps today and drop your achievement here — we’re cheering you on!
5,000 steps later and I am still here, actually I contributed more. The day ain’t over as yet, I mostly going to pack in a few more. Walking is a beautiful past time of mines. A good walk can cure a bad day, body aches, a bruised ego and even open your breathing “😮💨” up.
I like early morning jogs than walks. My walks are mostly reserved for the evening. That’s when reflections set in, I start to interpret my day. These are the moments my poetry and short stories start flowing.
Once I saw this prompt I was for sure going to write about it, via I know for sure I am getting my steps in.
What are people using these days to track there steps?
I am using FitBit (now called Google Health) and also an Apple Watch. At least with the FitBit App you can use your phone if you hold it on you for your walk, it counts your steps.
