You life, your story, your memories…Keeping a journal is one way to record those precious moments as you journey through life.
Ladies don’t Demean each Other
My sisters I want you to know that God saw a purpose for our existence and thus he created us and He was pleased with His handiwork. Now there was viral video recently of a pastor demeaning women. According to him if a woman wears makeup, paints her nails or wear hair which is not her own that makes her a whore. He went on to tell the men in his congregation that if they are married to a woman who does that they are married to a whore.
I know that most of us are intelligent enough to know the definition of a whore and that these things do not make a woman a whore any more than her wearing tight or short clothing. Ironically instead of being outraged some women defended this man, believing themselves that a woman’s attire is what defines her. I was disappointed but not surprised because sadly woman are often the first to tear down other women.
While I believe that a woman ought to carry herself in a respectable manner and dress properly for church the garment she wears does not make her a whore. As women we need to lift each other up instead of tearing each other down because what is in your heart counts more than what is on your body.
Look out for each other
If you see your sister taking the wrong path, don’t curse her, don’t belittle her, don’t cause her to feel worthless. If you care, if you really care, take that sister aside and talk to her. Let her know that you care. Encourage her to take another path and embark on a new journey. That is what strong women do, we build each other up.
Life Lessons
The reality of life is that no one is going to come and save us. No one is going to pave the way for our success. It is up to each and every one of us to create a life for ourselves and seek the path to success. Don’t wait on leaders, don’t wait on friends, don’t wait even on family, we have to do it ourselves.
Memorial Day
Today let us remember the brave men and women who sacrificed their lives to keep us safe. There is no greater sacrifice than to lay down your life for your country. Much respect for our fallen heroes!
Start Each Day on a Positive Note
“Start each day on a positive note and try to remain motivated in-spite of all the negative things that may be happening around you. Remember that not everyone you encounter is going to leave you with a pleasant experience. Remain focused on what it is that you seek to achieve and do not allow yourself to be distracted.”
Stay positive and things will fall into place! |
The World Will Break You…
The world will break you if you let it. But with a strong vision of self and confidence in your abilities. You will conquer the odds and come out victorious.
Happy Mother’s Day
Words are not quite enough to say thank you to Mothers for all the sacrifices that they make. A mother’s love for her child without question is the most important love of all. Happy Mother’s Day to each and every Mother.
Lesson on Success
If success was easy everyone would be successful so don’t be too hard on yourself if success hasn’t come as you envisioned. There will be ups and down and there may be setbacks. Persistency, effort and determination will prove to be your most valuable assets. Along with this will have to be a firm belief in yourself. When things get hard challenge yourself to try even harder. Think of someone who started out small like yourself and was able to succeed. Use that person as your motivation. Read books, build friendships and stay connected with like-minded people. Remember that it is up to you to create the life you want.
Face Your Fears
Too often we allow fear to hold us back. Too often the fears inside us become roadblocks hindering us from progressing. It is okay to have fears but we have to be brave enough to power through that fear and take that first step towards those dreams we seek to achieve. It will not be easy but we must try to develop enough courage to overcome our fears.
