I Try NOT to Personalize but sometimes......

My mother came to town to visit this weekend. It's always fun times when my Netta Girl comes over. My mom and I have a serious Mother/Daughter bond. We can talk 6 times a day and each time the conversation is just as new and entertaining as the 1st( although she repeats some of the previous conversations ;-)

My mother brings so much laughter when she is around. My daughter LOVES grandma to pieces. I try not to let my mother spoil her to much because when she leaves, life goes back to normal.

Anyhoo, my mother has recently picked up a new hobby( or so I thought), she serves in the food pantry at her church. I've always known my mother to be extremely caring but to hear her speak of the work and the people they serve it made my heart tingle.

Two families she spoke of, really stuck a cord. An older married couple have decided to eat every other day because only the husband is working( the Wife is a diabetic)and He make just enough to keep the house afloat. My heart broke, the other nite he came in from working and there was nothing to eat so he just went to sleep.

The other family, suffered a death and the grandmother took in her grandchildren. She barely has enough food to feed all 6 of them.

I thought of my own life and how I complain about wanting something to eat but YET my pantry is stocked as is my freezer. I can't fit anything else into my freezer and yet, I'll go buy something fast rather than appreciate the ability to open my freezer door and cook.

There's such a bigger picture than what our two eyes see from time to time. People are suffering and dying...

As I reflect on yesterday's church service, it's making more sense today.. We have to learn to be stewards over what God has given us. The government is here to assist BUT we have to be accountable for that other 90%. We must learn to live within our means and have something for those rainy days.

Mom, keep doing to wonderful job you're doing. My prayer is that they receive the funding they requested to go forth and serve more families. My prayer for us as a Nation let's stop putting all of our trust in the government and learn to seek out better ways of survival and techniques that will help us. We have to know the law for ourselves in order to make it WORK for us...

Let's NOT personalize it but make it work for everyone.. It's not always about us but how well we can be a keeper for our brothers and sisters~

... EVERYONE NEEDS to Know....

So, I haven't blogged in a while. Life, Business, Family but mainly because my last blog received some feedback that threw me for a loop. I think I do a phenomenal job at writing. It's a GIFT that I treasure the most. My writings speak to me first and then others interpret a message for themselves as well. After that feedback, I sat and examined myself. I truly DESPISE drama and its affiliation. I'm at a place in my life where I've learn to confront the issue and move forward. After voicing my side over my BLOG,I cried and asked God was I wrong? See, in my heart I know my intention was just to express how and what I felt but to be called ignorant to a specific community rubbed me kind of wrong.

Then, I thought about how when Jesus was on the cross and he cried out to his Father, " Forgive them for they know NOT what they do". NO, please no misunderstanding me, I'm NOT comparing myself to God, but merely the comparison of being misunderstood.

It happens to people every single day and mainly because we're all individuals with our own minds. At the end of the day, God's word tells us if we think our sister or brother has and ought, we should go to them. I'm so not the person to carry around issues. Me and my extra self believe, holding onto issues is just like holding gas in. Pass that before you burst your heart... Hahahaaa, but no seriously. Let that mess go. Get it out of your atmosphere, keep your dwellings peaceful and clean. Life is to short.

Ultimately, I carry PEACE in my heart. One of my downfalls is trying to please people. I go above and beyond. In my early years, I expected to be treated the same but as I've matured as a Woman and above all a Christian, I'm learning that you give to be acknowledged when you stand before GOD not man.

I just feel everyone needs to know, No sin is greater than the next. However, there are some sins that are an Abomination before God. If you don't have a personal Savior and can't stop sinning, Let ME introduce you to him.. His name is JESUS and he sits high. He came to the World to take our sins away. He's loving and will LOVE you unconditionally. Let Him into your heart, the prayer is simple. Father, I AM a Sinner and I come before you in need of a savior. Save me, so that I may see your face on judgement day and enjoy eternally life with you. Please come into my heart. It's just that simple, an easy confession because EVERYONE needs to know HIM!!!

Make it a gReat Day~~~~

I think I'm ....

... I honestly believe in the statement to each his own.. Whatever your sexual orientation, your religious beliefs, life style ETC, that's your BUSINESS!!!

However, please do not attempt to subject me too your LIFESTYLE!! I respect everyone. I know tons of people and I think I've mastered the statement, people who live in glass houses should NOT throw stones. Now, I'm hoping this post does NOT offend anyone but I gotta get it out of my system.. I DO NOT LIKE WOMEN... I enjoy being hit on by the opposite sex NOT the same sex. I can appreciate being told my hair is nice, my shoes are nice or even that I look nice, because I give those same compliments.

I agree, I am a beautiful woman and I appreciate the compliments but when you go far left and began to tell me you've noticed me for a while, we share a mutual friend and you just had to tell me how gorgeous I AM and how you would like to get to know me, it makes me feel a little SICK to my stomach... Am I over reacting? Some may say, YES and that's okay( I agree I am a tad bit extra)BUT I believe in going with my gut feeling and my gut tells me this was not going to end pretty.

I'm speechless, all types of awkward"NESS" is in the air. I kinda want to take another break from FB after this encounter. Nek got hit on.. That even sounds funny.. Statements like, don't knock it til you try it, just does NOT apply to me in the sexual area because I LIKE MEN~.. ugghhhhhhhhhh

As I have already stated, this was not written to offend anyone but MY blogspot is my vent location from time to time...

I think I need to still go and throw up... Can someone, preferably a MAN come hold my hair while I throw up???
