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”

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”

TAKE ME TO THE CROSS

Doesn’t everyone need a bit of Lent in their life? Today is Ash Wednesday which marks the beginning of the Lenten season. I’ve never paid much attention to the tradition. The last time I saw a person practicing Lent, I was in Atlanta, and he was my boss. Acknowledging that he did something good provesContinue reading “TAKE ME TO THE CROSS”

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?”

BLACK (EXCELLENCE) HISTORY AND LOVE MONTH: A little ditty about Mac and LJ

My Black American history most intimately begins with these two – Willie Mac Lonon and Lonnye Jenkins Lonon– my grandparents. I am blessed to have known them both (my grandfather died when I was seven, my grandmother lived to see me graduate college), and I lived with them for a while when my mother wasContinue reading “BLACK (EXCELLENCE) HISTORY AND LOVE MONTH: A little ditty about Mac and LJ”

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”

BOOK REVIEW OF DAY 3 AND 4 FOR 2023

As I mentioned on Monday, I am planning to revise the 21 Days to Your Best Life e-book. I wrote it at the end of 2020 because the process worked so well for me (someone who had been struggling with illnesses and near-death encounters) I wanted to share it with others. It was not aContinue reading “BOOK REVIEW OF DAY 3 AND 4 FOR 2023”

MICHELLE’S STORY

The Light We Carry Starting to read Michelle Obama’s “The Light We Carry, “ a gift inside the November Ivy Box, and I’m instantly drawn in by her description of her father’s walking cane, which she refers to as a tool. I didn’t know he had MS. How could I? Yet her references to theContinue reading “MICHELLE’S STORY”
