I love fashion. I love interior design. I love cooking. I love jewelry. I love plus size modeling. I love lingerie. I love writing. I love art. I love music. I love theater. I love Broadway musicals. I’ve never been to a Broadway musical but I know I’d enjoy it. I love shopping.
After the darkest night always comes the brightest day.
These days I’m so much happier with my life. I wrote a memoir. I’m trying to meet my goal of 52,000 words by January 2018 for the NJCU Writers Workshop. Oh I’m thankful for my memoir.

Realities of being Ayesha Karim.
So many difficulties in my life but I became a published writer in my 30s. I couldn’t be happier.
I thought certain difficult experiences I had in my childhood and my teenage years…
Would serve to disqualify me from being as happy and self-loving as I am now in my 30s. The change in me happened so fast that it took me completely by surprise. I’m so comfortable with my own image (picture) that I can’t even believe it. I started to feel this way at age 30 or 31. I’m 36 now I’ll be 37 in January 2018.
I feel like I am doing fine.
I am taking steps toward being more independent. I work part-time. I really love myself. I am healing old wounds that I thought would kill me. I am stronger than I’ve ever been in my life. One step at a time me. I don’t have it all together but that’s okay. I have come a long way! That’s what I’m going to focus on.
Being able to enjoy things. Laugh. Being recognized for me is a beautiful thing!
I can go almost anywhere and discuss things with my friends, my co-workers, my co-volunteers, and my classmates and not be angry at anyone else for how they feel about me. I’m in my 30s, I feel so good about myself, I am doing things I love to do, things I feel I was born to do like writing. I love to listen to music. I’m going to set up an appointment to get guitar lessons. I want to be a musician.
Self-love and reality checks.
I remember thinking someone else was responsible for my happiness. I am happy if this person does this or that but now I have the right to be happy and process my emotions. I can have a good day even when bad things happen to me. I can say Ayesha you’re beautiful and say hello to compliments from others and self-love. I am living my dream. I even plan to get guitar lessons and buy a guitar. I want to have my very own instrumental CD soon. I can’t wait to create an instrumental CD that has a picture of me that has my name on it. I am getting my first lesson on December 15 I think.
The people I admire are not doctors.
I admire artists, writers, musicians, dancers, actors, and teachers. I also love dentists. My dentist loves my teeth. I am interested in becoming a certified massage therapist at some point and having a jewelry line.
I am thankful for my life.
I’ve come so far. I’m going to keep working at my Mercer job until I get my BA in Early Childhood Education and I’m going to get my Special Ed cert too when I finish. I should be done in 3 years if everything goes well. So far so good. I have so much clarity that I know God is for me not against me. Kiss kiss he says I’m with you-you’re safe you’re not alone. Believe that so you can relax your mind and sleep at night. Get your zzz’s.
