Wassup LiyiaTribe thank you for tuning in another week at Under the Layers. Today is November 10, 2020, and today I have scheduled an introduction for those who do not know me as well as they should. I am going to keep it as short and sweet as possible. If after reading my intro, you want just a little more insight into my life, feel free to check out my homepage where you can see brief segments about present-day Caliyia. Remember that throughout each week you will also still learn, more about since I am still learning about myself. Without further ado, let us get into my introduction. My name is Caliyia and I live in Atlanta, but I was born in Washington D.C, I moved down here when I was five. I live with my mom, dad, and brother. My mom’s name is Catina, my dad’s name is Carlton, and my brother’s name is Carsel. When I first moved down here, I met my boy best friend Rashaad I have known him for almost 13 years, which is crazy! In third grade, I met another close friend that also lives in my neighborhood, her name is Amiyah I met her around 3rd grade. Another friend that I met in third grade is one of my closest friends ever Perris. In fifth grade I met my girl best friend Kiera we grew so close from the first day we met, it seems now we're a bit more distant and do not hang nor talk as much, but when you grow up things are bound to change. I do not know if it is just me but I met all of my friends that I am still cool with today at a young age besides one sweet and special person that is close to my heart. I met her when I was in the 9th grade her name is Shannon and she is one of the kindest people you will ever meet. I remember having a break down after finding out that my ex cheated on me and she stayed there with me until I felt better and made me laugh. She lifted me up and so did my brother that day it was a hard time because no one liked seeing me like that. However, it is a part of life and big things like that are what creates growth. That is why I made the Blog I want to grow from a past self with anxiety and shyness. I am growing spiritually and what I am doing can not only help me and help others that went or that ARE going through something. My life has never been easy; I have found out that I kind of like it that way. It gives me a challenge, it lets me know to never stop fighting no matter how many sleepless nights I had thought it was my time to leave. Never give up on yourself and start your personal growth. This is me, and I will continue to grow.
