Lifestyle Author For Those Like Us Who Care About Purpose, Passions, and Productivity
Many people secretly feel like they are not enough. Maybe you are one of them.
The job you have does not pay all the bills, and the life you live has no thrills for the reels on social media. Maybe life is not all you had hoped for, but you need to know that your story is incomplete.
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”
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”
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.

“I don’t have a feeling of inferiority. Never had. I’m as good as anybody, but no better.”Katherine Johnson Mrs Johnson’s attitude will take you to the moon. It certainly helped her in her career at NASA. Her mathematical calculations were critical to the space shuttle program. I’m a believer in Mrs. Johnson words. Are you?Continue reading “MORE 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”
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”
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”
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”
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”
