Man, January 1st 2018, Aquarius Dawn Nancy Is More Alive!

By Aquarius Dawn Nancy

Listening to the blues, not because I am blue, just because. The women like Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and so many more blues with jazz singers just move me. I like to listen to music and helps get the work done. Much introspection done after hell broke loose. 

I no longer trust law enforcement. I no longer believe in the Justice System. I have decided to date a man who shows me actions I only use to hear of and it makes me "Feel Good" at a time my heart longs for my wrongfully taken daughter, Goddess-Isis. She lives among a bunch of unscrupulous liars I no longer consider descent people. I just find solace in that the spirit of my ancestors saw me through what many whom claim a false faith perpetuated with the help of crooked personnel whom used unethical practices to pry into my records, put misinformation in reports, and did all this in the name of "Their Jesus". 

With that said, I must keep to convictions and deal with those who keep it real. Just paused writing because I got a great gift from Blu Headz Entertainment. 😊 Love when a medium gives me permission to use their content! #ThankYou it just warms my heart! 

Bye for now, off to post and blog about more Giants 😎😉🤗🤓☺

Learning About Leyla McCalla and Haitian Folk Music

2014 International Fest Docks at Port of New Orleans

Last year I was blessed with  partnership that brought me to my current interest of many these days. Haitian folk music is an area I never was educated on. I heard it now that I learn of the roots of Haitian roots music. Yet, growing up no one stopped and told me these songs were Folk songs. Now in school listening to Blue Grass music and other Folk, I never took to Haitian music let alone knew what would play at decibels not clear to make out but tunes was even a Haitian version.

Not till I was asked to head promotion online for the yearly Zakafest which is a festival that keeps the Haitian culture alive. "Kilti Ayisyen or Ayisien" in Creole means Haitian culture, now more than ever so much is coming my way about it and in the form of a beau who loves it. So last year May I learned of this amazing Folk artist who happened to be Haitian American and from New York residing in NOLA, New Orleans, Louisiana. 

Mesi Bondye on YouTube made me stumble on her interview and the sharing began from there. My passion is to share with those who come from my neck of the woods and anyone else who wants to know, do about what gems are online that may not be shared as much on popular pages for one reason or another. Very fortunate to have many who are helpful in pointing into the right direction like Coach Peter of North Miami Senior High School and so many others like my boyfriend who plays for Kriz Rara. That in itself I am dating a Haitian man as more than a hook up is for another blog, lol.

Just elated to learn of Leyla McCalla who is all over doing her thing internationally too. Now I am getting a bug for Haitian music but not in the Kompa I really cannot stand more than an hour listening to or Zouk that I also do not care for. Just being honest as I am about Hip Hop of today. I love old school and rarely like the new school more than the beats. So many say oh, your not Haitian for that, and I just think to self this hang up is ridiculous and just an overreaction that is more based on hurt feelings than what it blatantly is, disregard to my natural human right to like what I want. So I am love Haitian Folk music and thank my baby Mario for sharing all the old greats like, Jean Raymond and others again at my age of 33 year old still never heard of to even start seeking or getting who they are from a post if I happen to see it. Now, I do get krunk, just need a good mix of genre selections I like.

Aquarius Dawn Nancy, Yes I Am That Chic

Circa 1983 - 1984

Hi, I am Aquarius Dawn Nancy a Haitian American Single Mother, Entrepreneur, Online Queen/Junkie, Social Media Consultant for La Beaute Magazine, Online Presence Consultant, IT Company Owner, proud founder of Haitian American Youth Online Media, Inc and now a blogger for Day to Day Finances with this great release for me personally. :)

My first post and as much as I always have much to say on a topic when asked or provoked to respond without provocation, I cannot right now think of anything. Just kidding, especially those who know me, I have just begun.

Well my posts will be short and sweet in my terms, lol.

Where do I begin? Well you can say I came in this world as a “Little Haiti” baby so to speak. Born in Miami and raised in Broward County, I really am not well versed in the “Streets” of Dade. Now, Broward is my heart line. Relaxing place, that is what it is for me. Yes, I am not one who grew up in the streets, but I embraced them young enough to learn so much from so many that have humbled me, toughened me up and made who I am today. Grateful to many I know who have been an inspiration to me in a positive or negative way.

Much has transpired in my 33 years on this earth and at times I will just let my thoughts out or not. It is an “As the Wind Blows” kind of thing for me. So today this 26th day of February, I choose to just share my current joys. Like my son who is six this past month and ringing in another year to bless the earth with my unique presence. Yes, you will find much conceit these days in this blog. One must be that inner cheerleader when all can be internal as in what you are living through. Many like to say to stay at peace, well some of us must muster up the calm after the storm others we allow in our lives bring. Only difference for me is, I will gladly ignore a call from an annoying entity and why I understand if one finds me as such, no hard feelings if I too am done the same.

There is a movement brewing that all are joining no matter race or creed. It is the, “Positive Vibes Movement”, I like to call it. We want to find inner peace in our way and not how others generalize it or say it to be. Finding peace can mean rocking out to Rock – N – Roll or just going outside to sit in the sun to meditate a bit. We all de-stress differently. I like to write and always have had journals. Now keeping them is another story. I recently lost all my belongings through my own actions but in keeping it real I do not have my old ones. So much made me and continues to mold the work in progress I am as we all are. Evolution, people! Sigh, it was all part of the master plan for my life though, “The Purge” and "This Purge"(My Blog).
