Mi Casa Su Casa

Funny how things work out... My mom is very big on taking people for their word. I have adopted this philosophy and have witnessed it first hand that you can't take everyone at their word. It really rubs me the wrong way when you say or tell a person one thing while withholding the actual truth and in the end telling them something totally different and when it's all said and done they try and turn it around to make the hold situation your fault.

GOD and I both know how things go down and it will be judged! So I know my sleep will be light and refreshing, because the truth as a funny way of revealing itself. GOD don't like ugly and this is very UGLY!!! Sleep on that!

Self - Exposed

One of the reasons I wanted to keep this particular blog going was to allow you to see the real me. I wanted to be that example so that as good things happen to my family and I, there are still set-backs, ups and downs, and every now and then depression comes knocking at the door. Most times it's ignored but some times the door is left cracked and it gets in.

This weekend I truly had a very surprising wake-up call. I really do focus a lot on how people see me and what that ultimately think of me and what I'm trying to do with me life. Last night my mom and I had girls night at her house (just the two of us) and while I was in the bathroom I looked in the mirror and was very disgusted at how I've let go of myself.

I'll be promoting my book soon nationally and I'm not sure if I'm at all ready for the limelight. My face use to be clear and now I have black spots all over the chin area. My teeth could use a cleaning and whitening, and I've totally neglected my hair. I told my husband that a lot of why my appearance isn't up to par is mainly because I've redirected my depression and that's been the result. There are so many other things going on and sometimes I feel as if I have no one to turn to. I know "this too shall pass" and this is advice I give others who are feeling down about things. I just needed to vent and get it out so it won't be buried.

Finding Your Niche

I was talking with my sister-in-law today and she was telling me that she heard my radio interview on KGCM Radio. She told me that she thought I'd found my niche and that she wished she could find hers. I told her and I'm going to tell you, find something you love and believe in it. And throw out the notion that it's too late for your dream to come true. I met a very inspirational women today named LaToya Brown the author of "Borrowed Water" and she shared with us, and I'm paraphrasing, It's not over until you give up!

That is so so true. I was near the end of a very tiny lifeline, and I looked at my family and what their life could be without me and I didn't even want that, so I got up and gave God the wheel!!!!! Let him have it, and see the blessing he wanted for your life along!

Monumental Movement

I'm not sure if you've heard the story about the Jena Six boys in Jena, Louisiana. If you haven't heard of this please Google Jena Six and read up on it. The reason I'm bringing this to your attention is because there's going to be a national protest in Jena, La on September 20th. I first time heard about the protest and the story was on the Michael Baisden Radio show. I have since volunteered to organize travel for the Dallas/Fort Worth area in support for the Jena Six. So if you're interested in a seat on the buses that will be traveling down, please call my voicemail # @ 817-349-3602 letting me know how many seats you'll need. There's information posted below so please access those resources. And if there's anything else you'd like to do the help please let me know. Thanks for your time is the urgent matter.

Tyler Perry said it best...

WHAT WILL YOU BELIEVE GOD FOR?

I can honestly say, I believe God for his word. I believe that through him all things are possible, because he says they are. I believe that if I ask him for it, he will provide for me, because he said he would. So I ask you...WHAT WILL YOU BELIEVE GOD FOR?
