"Making Up Excuses"

Each day we long for that
golden ticket as if we were in a movie walking along Willy Wonka in his glorified
chocolate factory; saying to ourselves I wish this was mine, or I wish I had
this or I wish I had that. It is time for you to stop making up excuses for
yourself and be like Nike; just do it. The best part about going out for the
team…meaning you, is that there is no where else to go but up...remember life
is what u make it. The only person getting in the way of you...is you. You are
your own worse enemy at the best things in your life. There are plenty of times
in your life where I bet you sit around and sing your shoulda, coulda, wouldas;
saying to yourself that this time …I'm going to get around to it...this time
I'm going to make my goals a reality. Pressuring yourself to be determined to
make that golden ticket your admission fee for success. Then suddenly you
become doubtful, you stop your own self in your own tracks of greatness and
why...because of fear. The fear of feeling like you will never great or amazing
at something that is so wonderful. Sometimes God want this time for you to be a
blessing of oneness between you and HIM…it is time for you to open up yourself
and stop trying to fix everything yourself. We as humans always strive for the
need to always fix something or to basically be independent on our own. It is
not a need that needs to be meet all the time. For every need that is put out
there it is not our call of duty to reach out and be aid to that need. It is
time for us to get out the way and let GOD do his work. And while He is working
it is time for you to renew and revamp your life. There no more excuse left to dish
out, just reality slips! If you are a father with children or have one child,
it is time for you to stop making up excuses of why you can’t spend time with
your children, or why you cant call them on the phone and say hi. It is time to
stop making up excuse of why you can not get a job, or why you can not leave
your pride aside and apply for assistance. It is time to stop blaming your down
fall in life on people, and start looking at yourself and see your errors…we
all want to blame someone for our bs lifestyle, yet the person we should
pointing at is ourselves…and why you ask…because we got in the way of ourselves
of the success we wanted to have put was either too proud, too ignorant, or
just plain dumb to make that change a reality.  The time has come to just step aside and lay
down those excuse, once you do you will see the magical change that will suddenly
appear before you. 

NOTHING from something is NOTHING...RIGHT!?

        When did it become okay for a man to want a woman for nothing? A sexy black women on the outside, trailing behind past pain on the inside...as if she is suppose to overcome her fear of commitment, and loneliness when she is in the presents of a man. A woman that have been used then thrown away like garbage, as if she were nothing. The unwanted feeling of hopelessness; having men she trusted come in and out her life leaving scars on her already wounded heart. 
       When did it become okay for man to destroy a woman's trust, and respect to a pit of nothing? When did it become okay for a man to no longer care about a woman's whereabouts once she is let go, as if she was cattle or slave girl giving you a treat/nightcap. When did become okay for men to pretend as if a woman has no voice as if we are living in the stone age? When is the right time for a woman to be a woman and not a man's personal doormat.

       The soul of a black woman is well known to the eye but unknown to the mind, for the pure impact knowledge of a black woman's soul is deeper than a whole to China. . Her soul is powerful yet strong, forever caring, kind yet full of logic, fearful yet overcoming with joy and much healing, like a band-aid with ointment...it can be hurt and scared but it eventually heals quick and easy with a lesson learned; never get hurt in the same place again! I am that black woman; as we all are. There are more black/minority women in today's society getting rapped and abused by men that woman put so much trust into that have no care for them at all. This type of misogynistic attitude is not just a disgrace yet a shame. Women are not at all sex objects to be used like old sneakers....run on them till the sole gives out. Women...all women; black, white, purple, red, brown, yellow, etc..are to be treated with grace. For a man who finds a good woman, finds a good thing, and so shall she. 

"One day a woman wakes up and shakes off the anxiety and feeling of all life’s disappointments and depression. She gazes out through her window of life and realizes that she is neither a failure nor a ridicule of mockery. She is a winner in all her glory, stepping aside with both eyes closed to walk blind in the world; with faith as her guide. As she opens up her wings she arrives at the notion that she is a voice in this universe and deserves to be heard…with a powerful octave she screams evading all anger and stress that was once locked inside of her”.

        Today that woman is now understanding that her life is like a fish bowl...it looks nice from the outside but the inside is full of more life than one can imagine. Are we as women like fish in a fish bowl? As fish do swim aimlessly around trying to find a way out; we as women are no longer trapped in a fish bowl, we are and have always been free. It is time to raise our voice, and scream out the anger, rage disappointment, frustration and, misogynistic attitudes that have been placed amongst us. Having others look at the exterior side of us and not care about what is on the inside; knowing that the inside is beautiful and full of life. We as woman have to understand our awareness of our want, need, desires, and simple pleasures. Time for action...take control…let go…and SCREAM ITOUT!

LIVING POSITIVE -THE NEGATIVE = A ROAD OF HAPPINESS!

The road not taken is the road that is never walked alone

There is a battle that surrounds each and everyone of us and that battle and pain is worry. We as humans worry more than we should. We complain about the inevitable events in our lives, about the fear that we must face day to day, we cry about our heartache, we argue when things do not go our way, we look the other way when something that is so good is looking us in our face. And yet we don't notice that good thing because we are so captivated by the pain and frustration within our lives; resulting in overlooking what could or should have been. It's time just to be happy for the now and stop worrying about the later. Love what God has placed on you in front of you and all around you. Stop being so negative, thinking negative, living in a negative realm of an unhealthy space. Give God praise and glory for the happiness that He has blessed you with now. In this time and in your own personal space; realize that the battle is over and already won. Stop worrying; put that worried feeling behind you and walk that path of clarity, Gods got a blessing for you at the end. Always remember that the road chosen is not a lonely road; for a person that walks alone is never alone for they haves God on their side through it all. 

The Last Day to Morn...You can make it

In the appearance of setting up my life plan there seems to be a block or a door standing in the way of perfection. This door is not my disability, yet it is my goal, and my drive to make a change. My aspiration to see the "big picture" and make this time my time to survive and be a conquer over whatever is troubling me. I say this to you...be a winner and never let the bad get to you. You can and you will make it.You are stronger than your defeat and wiser than what is put forth in front of you; its time to go get yours. Dry up those tears, but never forget the reason why you cried;it is the ability that grows within us to move on to better heights and be better that what we use to be. The sick and shut in should no longer be sick and shut in if you are able to see, walk, talk and learn from the past. Loving you is your remedy, its is when this love that we find the power to heal. Growing from this past and living to make each day count is what should and always be the purpose of your driven life. It should not be to obtain a life where you are surrounded with people that don't care about you; sprawling out words to you in a disrespectful manner.When you love yourself the world is your seed and you are the rain; so make today and every day blossom like a flower. No more tears, or rain in this cloud.
