My daughters and I

Lord, I thank you for allowing me to live to see this day!! Oh, what a glorious day it is!! For the last 23 years of my life I have been a single parent or single mother, but thank you, Lord, today I can officially declare that I am just Single! While I will be forever their mother, I no longer have to mother them. I am so glad to see both my children come to this stage in their journey of life where they no longer need to parent them and I am so glad to take on my new role as a partner in their destiny!! It has definitely been a long rugged road that I somehow managed to have it look envious, but so far from it. My children and I have been through a lot, but we have managed to keep it together and come out more refined every time. Even though we have not had a lot of support we learned to lean on each other and embrace our flaws! So to my two beautiful, talented, smart, brave, and strong young ladies, hats off to your future and mine...big things are about to happen! I can feel it...God will see us through, He always has! Thank you, Jesus!

Happiness is a Myth

By
What if I told you everything you thought you knew about happiness is wrong? The truth is happiness is a myth and an illusion that is  overrated.   It is like chasing after a butterfly. The more you pursue it, the more it eludes you, and the moment you catch it is the moment it begins to die.  So, from whence came the word happy? According to The Oxford English Dictionary, the first record of the word was around 1350,   from Middle English, "a form of the English language spoken after the Norman conquest (1066) until the late 15th century," which is a derivative of the Old Norse "happ," meaning "luck" or "chance."  It combined "the word hap, meaning "a person's luck or lot," and the suffix –y, meaning "characterized by," to   form diminutive nouns and adjectives denoting a state, condition, or quality.  Then, in essence, when someone says, "I want to be happy," they are really saying that they want someone e...

Be Realistic!

By
Be Realistic We live in a world where being realistic is a thing of the past and conjures thoughts of mediocrity and cause for alarm in the minds of unrealistic people.

Words are taken out of their true context and meaning can
