Your love

Your love never fails, never gives up on me, always supports me and never runs out on me. I love you, but I am sure you love me more.

I should be doing homework but...

I was thinking about marriage.....really thinking. Am I ready? I mean really, I would be literally and figuratively giving up a life of independence. I am sure I will still be an individual but I would now have to be accountable and responsible and share things with someone else. I am more than happy to do it for my lil ones, but a spouse??? Just my thought folks....don't all go weeping and crying, it's all good in the hood lol.

So to my ladies especially, are you so set in your ways that marriage may not be an option for you? Honest answers girls!

Silence is Golden

Can't quote or  misquote silence, so I say nothing.....................to you.

3:20 AM

Why am I still up? Because I'm getting my hustle on lol.....no I am really typing up homework. My lil one ALWAYS wants to be close to Momma so he is right next to me. I am tired as get out...but one glance at him and I catch a second wind.

Always Give Your All....

the outcome is on you. You can't want and not give...I sincerely believe that. Some people have expectations and are completely lazy when trying to obtain the things that they want. If you do get what you want without effort...is it real? Does it really make you happy, knowing you did nothing to deserve it? Can you live your life being lazy and sleep at night? I marvel at people who coast through life, but I also pity them. I pray that, they not continue to take their blessing for granted and if they do, the crash is survivable.

The reason why people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far they still have to go, instead of how far they have gotten. -Will Smith

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice

My lil one kisses my belly and says baby.....I swear he melts my heart, I am praying for a little girl. He can't wait for a little sister OR brother.

I Can't Wait for My Little Girl

First Theater Debute in YEARS....Langston Hughes Black Nativity

 Intense rehearsals, amazing cast mates, Gospel musical magic, makes for an amazing run with steller reviews. If I have anything to say about it, we deserved a Helen Hayes mention. An audience  member stated "Absolutely astounding and anointed. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I plan to be there in 2012. It was a "professional Broadway performance." Believe this New Yorker. Nothing but the truth. Continue to let God use you and everyone mightily."

Happy Road

My road to happiness has not been an easy one. I am still growing up and learning from my mistakes. I have taken the nails out of my own hands and climbed down off the cross. It was rough up there...faces of myself multiplied with scattered ones of people who hurt me, all hurling words that feel like punches and eyes of judgment. The face staring back at me was my own and I was the ringleader. The first to unleash blow after blow of anything I could say to crush my own spirit and break myself down.

I am on the road to happiness, this time I brought along people who love me, they carry the light when I am in darkness,plenty of nourishment, because God can cook and  packed my directions, so If I get lost, I can find my way again.


Love you all

With all honor and respect to the single mothers who raised many of us, we want to ask how do we break the cycle and begin to build stronger, more stable families and homes so that our children can thrive and our communities can heal? Self love. Let’s make thoughtful, mindful, deliberate decisions about the men who we give our hearts and bodies to. If a man has not demonstrated his loyalty, love and respect for you then that should tell you all you need to know about his future potential as a husband or a father. “I do not trust people who don't love themselves and yet tell me, 'I love you.' There is an African saying which is: Be careful when a naked person offers you a shirt.” [Quote: Maya Angelou.]
