The Pursuit!

Hey Everyone!

      Welcome to the last evening of March 2018 and the last full moon of Q1 (quarter 1). March is a special month for Insights by Ish because it marks the 7th year anniversary of its launch. It still trips me out because the things that I have now been blessed to do was once only imagined. When I started this blog my intention was to start a magazine because of my love for writing. Well, it turns out that my intention led me to the discovery of broadcast and therefore the pursuit for my degree in journalism. I realize that what sometimes starts as our initial idea doesn't mean that it will be the end result. Sometimes life is a series of ideas that keep leading us to our greater purpose. The point is to be patient, listen, and keep going!

      Last month, I wrote an entry about taking a leap of faith and practicing my individuality and independence. I cannot emphasize how important that move was to my growth and what an incredible trip it was.  I began the month of March with a leap of faith trip to Los Angeles for the Oscars. From that, a day spent at the Paramount Studios showed up and I had the chance to visit famous television sets for shows like Dr. Phil and the Doctors. As you can see, I ambitiously jumped on Dr. Phil's chair. I felt right at home! Becoming a talk-show host is an ultimate dream of mine and the cool thing is that I was so comfortable being in  the studio, that it re-nourished my dream of becoming a talk-show host. As a result, March has brought me nothing less of new experiences. As a writer for Splash Magazine,  I had the opportunity to attend my first symphony at Davies Symphony Hall and also listen  live to the lovely Liz Callaway at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. I will post links to both reviews at the end of this entry in-case anyone needs an insight on either events.

The note that I would like to end this entry on is the persistence of PURSUIT. Life will bring us different situations but the process of inclusion and exclusion is very important. Some choices will lead us to greater places and other choices will teach us to re-route. The message is that we are here to live and learn. What matters is how we live when we are here because the destination can very well be unknown. With that being said, everyday is a blessing and I wish everyone an incredible entry into April! Thank you as always!
