Well as I was having my morning devotion I stumbled upon this and was compelled to “re-share” the message.

WINNING AT ANY AGE
I didn’t watch the Oscars, but I did hear this statement by the 2023 best actress winner, Michelle Yeoh. Yeoh said during her acceptance speech, “Ladies, don’t let anyone tell you you’re ever past your prime.” Yes! I like this a lot!!! On the contrary, I wonder if Don Lemon is having flashbacks about hisContinue reading “WINNING AT ANY AGE”
PERSONALITY CREATES REALITY
How to break the cycle. Did you know that 90 percent of our thoughts are the same as the day before? No wonder nothing changes until we change. This is why I wrote the 21 days to Your Best Life. The e-book was nothing extraordinary, only an awareness of the changes a person can makeContinue reading “PERSONALITY CREATES REALITY”
FREEDOM
On this Sunday, I pray that those currently captivated by this world will return to the only true God, the Lord-Yehovah. It is time for your tears of shame and pain to return to joy. He is waiting for you. “Turn to freedom our captivity and restore our fortunes, O Lord, as the streams inContinue reading “FREEDOM”
SKILL AND EDUCATION
Black History is everyone’s history. This fact weighs on my heart as we close Black History Month. Although mainly, Black Americans scurry around like fire ants to build a mound of historical facts for the public and children to learn in a (short) month, our best endeavors will never be enough to encompass all theContinue reading “SKILL AND EDUCATION”
LOVING YOU IS GOOD FOR US
I am a firm believer that LOVE should start at home. I think so many family dysfunctions (and I had them, too) could have been aborted if children had grown up having good loving parents as role models. I believe that is why television had a more positive effect in the past, regardless of imageryContinue reading “LOVING YOU IS GOOD FOR US”
A SON BEATEN TO DEATH ON TV: Is this a new norm for Black American moms?
(Caution: This post may be difficult to read) The sensationalism of Black versus Blue killings in our society is off the spectrum, in my opinion, and it is creating dire consequences. In my opinion, there are so many things wrong with seeing Tyre Nichols beaten to death on national television repeatedly. But does anyone care?Continue reading “A SON BEATEN TO DEATH ON TV: Is this a new norm for Black American moms?”
AN UNLIKEABLE AFFAIR WITH THE NEWS
Remember when the news was delivered by people we trusted I have never been a fan of the news. I’ve always been skeptical of the negative light I often saw Blacks portrayed and how White reporters always seemed to find the dumbest person in the neighborhood to interview and represent an entire community. Really? ForContinue reading “AN UNLIKEABLE AFFAIR WITH THE NEWS”
KEEP THE MAIN THINGS THE MAIN THING
The Final Review of the e-book, my first step away from symptomatic insanity, and a greatness ahead. On Saturday, January 21, the last day of the “21-Day” e-book review and 2023 challenge, I attended a gathering with my oh-so-sassy sorority sisters. The event has been on my schedule since September 2022, and I had longContinue reading “KEEP THE MAIN THINGS THE MAIN THING”
BOOK REVIEW OF DAY 5 AND 6 FOR 2023
Days Five and Six seem to be error free, but I will make a plan to review these two chapters again when I am feeling better. For the last couple of days, I have been weak, bed bound, and my head has been throbbing like drums in a marching band. Still, I managed to preserve,Continue reading “BOOK REVIEW OF DAY 5 AND 6 FOR 2023”
