Life over Trend - Justice for Trayvon!

Dear members of the Black community,

With the utmost respect for the principles of #Individualism, it is imperative that we impart a valuable lesson to our children – the importance of dressing not only for success but for life, and for their seamless integration into society. When we embrace this principle, we take a significant stride toward securing a brighter future. Our primary objective is to safeguard lives, transcending fleeting trends, and diminishing the risks associated with encounters with racially biased law enforcement. In this endeavour, let us remain steadfast in our commitment to the profound message that lies at the heart of our cause.

We advocate for a profound shift, a complete transformation in the way we prepare our sons for the world. Let us clothe them in suits and instill in them the readiness for a future where change is not just a possibility but an inevitability. This transformation represents our dedication to a more promising tomorrow, one marked by progress, justice, and equality.

In the spirit of moving #Onward and #Forward, let us pay tribute to the memory of Trayvon Martin, a poignant symbol of the pressing need for justice. By making the conscious choice to dress our sons for success and preparedness, we are taking the first critical step towards securing justice for Trayvon and for all those whose lives have been unjustly affected.

In conclusion, let us collectively choose "Life over Trend" and rally for "Justice for Trayvon." This is a call to action, a reminder that we have the power to shape our own destiny and, in doing so, contribute to a world that respects and values every life.

Sincerely,

A Dedicated Black Mother

Journey of Self: Who Are You?

How do you begin to answer this question? Do you begin with your name, relations, occupation, achievements, life status or family lineage? How about sexual, spiritual or solar orientation? No? Then you must be your race, creed, nationality, or background? Right?... So, if none of those define you, tell me... do you really, truly and honestly know who you are? How might you begin to find out? As individuals we have so many intricacies and facets to our lives that if we have not consciously taken the time to find out who we are, we could be living a lie or someone else idea of who we are. I know, I know...I can hear the protest loud and clear: "I know who I am." But really, do you? I have news for you. What you do and where you came from are NOT you!  That's right, it is an extension of who you are, but it certainly isn't you in its entirety. You were who you are, long before you learned how to walk, talk, read, or write. Long before your passed or cu...

Be Your Own Hero!

When I look back on my own life, there have been many times when I felt like giving up, there have been many times I have given up and there are times when I hang on tight for dear life. What do you think made the difference in actually giving up, just thinking about giving up and hanging on? In all these instances, I have learned that there are somethings worth fighting for and some things are just a waste of time and energy. Knowing the difference will make the difference because you are going to have to pick your battles. Sometimes some things are not meant to be—lay them to rest. If you pursue them they will take you out of alignment with your values and what you really want. You will lose your own way. Sometimes you didn't really want it in the first place—it might have been someone else's desire for you so there is no point fighting for it. Other times it might have been red eye—you see someone else doing it so you think you can do it too—you are compe...

How To Feel Better Instantly and Vibrate at a Higher Frequency In 2018

Title image  Improving your life requires you to change something about yourself—be it your mind, perspectives, attitude, bad habits, or circle. That said, a person unwilling to change won't grow or move forward in life or career. So let me begin by urging you, starting right now to stay open and flexible to change. A meaningful life is not just about your money, status, education, popularity, and beauty. Although all these have their place in life and society, they are not the full package. A life worth living is more about integrity, gratitude, compassion, and kindness. At the end of the day, these are the qualities that really matter—how we relate and connect with The Creator and His creations. So, let's look at how we can all vibrate at a higher frequency starting right now and every day hereafter. SPIRITUALLY "Every day, live in a way that honours who you are." —A.D.
