teenagers – the unicorn city

do u luv u?

today’s mantra: i love me. 🦄

well hello there! this is me. i just wanted to say hi and tell you a tiny bit about me. i am a single momma to beautiful babies. i work a busy day job. i love to write and read especially poetry like #shelsilverstein and #drsuess (and #bukowski but that’s my alter ego talking…). i dislike most tv but LOVE the office and longmire. 🤔 i always have a new idea for something to try or use or do…i am currently trying to build my little unicorn city here as it is my favorite place to be right now. this scene in particular reminds me of the final world in #shangchi !!! #iykyk

i have a passion for talking about mental health issues. i want to be a part of a movement that brings acceptance, awareness, and assistance to those suffering from mental health infirmities. i want to create relatable characters for adults and children. ☔️

How you love yourself is how you teach others to love you.
Rupi Kaur, poet

also, rainbows. 🌈 i have included rainbows in my art to support diversity and inclusivity of all kinds…sexual orientation, race, gender status, weirdness…all unicorns welcome! 🙏🏽

one thing i have learned in my writings and life experience is that the #lgbtq community is SO SUPPORTIVE of each other. truly, love is the guiding principle in lgbtq groups and forums. i want to be a part of spreading real love for others no matter their status, religion, etc etc. hoomans loving hoomans. 🤍

i am vocal about seeking professional mental health assistance. if our physical bodies are out of shape, we hire a physical trainer. if our minds our out of sync, we need therapists. i have one that challenges me to grow. as a #parent i think having a #parentingcoach for your #family is a great idea. i am a #singlemom so that amplifies my need to have another person to talk things through with. HBU?

Your self worth is determined by you. You don’t have to depend on someone to tell you who you are.
Beyoncé Knowles, singer-songwriter

today i love me. it’s been a long journey to that statement. life has it’s twists and turns ups and downs as you well know. i hope you are at a stage where you can say “i love me” and mean it and believe it. if not, that’s okay. it’s a process, a journey. we’ll work on ourselves together, mmmkayy?

so that’s a little about me! thx so much for following along!

xoxo, mommacorn

the brave little unicorn

Santa Cruz, California

Meet Ragnar.

He is a unicorn who loves to voyage on adventures to see the world. He especially loves to let his wild hairs fly free in ocean breezes. He loves crashing waves.

Life sometimes crashes all around us. Time in nature soothes the soul. Deep breaths remind us to stay centered and grounded to our eternal purpose on this earth journey.

Find nature today and breathe deep.

Hugs xxoo xxoo,

Today’s Mantra: I will breathe fresh air into my purpose.

born to fly

Here we all are. Riding on this rollercoaster called life. We will ride the ups and we will ride the downs. We will laugh. We will cry.

All of this has purpose. The inertia of pain pushes us into territory we never wanted to be in. But pain lessons turn into wisdom. And wisdom is the key to the future.

Today I we are going to ride rollercoasters in Santa Cruz, California. I’m going to throw my hands in the air and scream to the ocean breezes.

I’m going to let it all go so I can spread my wings and fly…

Hugs xoxo,

Today’s mantra: I am not my scars.

postcard dreams

My motto right now is, “What the world needs now is mail, sweet mail.”

My postcard test runs are in full swing! I am loving seeing my art come in the mail. My kids are my first recipients of course…rave reviews so far!

“All this nothing has meant more to me than so many somethings.”
Kathleen Kelly, You’ve Got Mail

My current goal is to work on designing one year aka 12 postcard designs to send out to kids.

Mental health challenges are heavy and prevalent now more than ever. My solution is unicorns with rainbow horns along with a heathy dose of communication support.

Thanks for stopping by to read the blog today! I love seeing your visits in the stats. Keep on coming back and that will cheer me on!!!

HUGS and LOVE,

Today’s Mantra: I will choose one small positive task today to boost my personal happiness.

Idea: Use the box breathing method to clear head space.

dead end road

School’s almost out for Summer!!! I am not sure about your house but at our house we are soooo ready for relief and reprieve.

Some day’s it does feel like my feet are on backwards. It feels like I’m trying to forge ahead on the path of life but with every step comes struggle.

The butterfly struggled. Right before she came out of her cocoon she watched everything from the darkest space of her life.

And then, she evolved.

Life lessons are sent to test our capabilities. With each challenge conquered, we become stronger. Wisdom becomes our best friend. Our beauty begins to unfold as we become master of the prism of darks and lights within our mind’s eye.

Evolve forward. Walk towards light on the horizon each day.

Hugs xx,

Today’s Mantra: I will strengthen my soul by selecting how I expend my energy on all that happens around me.

teeny tiny masks we wear

is this you??

i wrote this a couple years ago about a teenager i know. back then I was talking about figurative masks we wear. now it has even more meaning as we have added actual physical masks.

anxieties are real! make sure to hop off electronics today and practice some positive self care today!

hugs and sometimes prescribed drugs when that is the best remedy,

@mommacorn415

today’s mantra: i accept me as i am.

i wonder oh i wonder

one day at work an upset woman came in to the office. she was distraught and agitated.

she said, “i just need somebody to SEE me.”

i looked her in the eyes and told her, “ i see you. i am here for you.”

some days we get bogged down in the events of the day. sometime life gets hard.

and, that’s life.

sometimes there is no better answer for the struggle and the hard challenges we face. we are learning on our journey how to evolve into stronger, more beautiful souls.

life takes us on wild adventures! are you ready for a wild ride???! buckle up. you just never know where you may land when you aim for rainbows…

i wonder. oh how i wonder…

hugs xx,

today’s mantra: i focus positive energy on visualizing my future self.

some days are messy

Meet Claudius T. Sprout.

Mr. Claudius lives in Unicornlandia aka The Unicorn City. He is the mayor of the town. The town was formed in 2020…the year when everything and everyone went crazy.

Well, here we all are. Together.

We are a bunch of writers that are going to share our stories. We accept everyone…every gender, color, shape, size, species, mental health status…everyone is welcome in our city. We are here to make you feel normal, welcome, worthy, and united.

Follow along as we share our stories…the ups, the downs, the all arounds.
