Cant win if you don't PLAY~~~

Don't front, you know you're going to play! Shoot, I just did!!! LOL They say you can't win if you don't play so why not?? I mean, why not join in the hoopla and just imagine for a little while??

The thought of having all that money is just mind boggling. Like really, after you've purchased everything you want, what would be left to buy?After you've paid your tithes( yup, dReam Center would definitely have a come up), purchased a new home, new cars, things for your family, what would you do??

My children would NEVER have to want for anything and ALL of them would have trust funds set aside. Life as we know it wouldn't change drastically but it would definitely be different. KISS, my business would still be thee most important thing to me and we would definitely have the funding to take it to the next step. I'd go back to school and probably become a Professional Student...LOL, no seriously!

Aside from taking care of my immediate family; Personally, I'd be on a mission to help every displaced person I know. It's always been a goal of mine to have a Life Center for Youth & Families. A place where kids can have fun and if their parents need assistance with job placement, resume' writing, access to a computer etc, they could find it at "The Spot" ( as I would call it). A place where women can freely talk and build life long friendships and bridges to success. It's one thing to say it but it's another to mean it with everything in your being.  I'm so glad that Georgia opened it's wide arms and welcomed me home.

Who's to say the right or wrong way to use your money?? I just know that "IF" I won, I definitely would not change. I already have a generous heart, so it would be second nature to just continue doing what I do. HOWEVER, if you haven't been eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with me, haven;t been with me on this journey to loose weight and if you haven't been in my corner all the time, then hmmmmmmmm figure it out!!

LOL

*disclaimer, Don't get mad when I win. Go spend your $1 and close your eyes and dream too!!!

Its in the Ground...

Because of my deeply rooted Christian beliefs, I tend to look for the hand of Jesus upon everything. I mean, shouldn't we? He IS the creator of EVERYTHING, right?.. Another blog for another day.

The Sunday before we departed was Super Sunday at my church. It was the Sunday where we bought an offering above and beyond what we normally give. It was our natural way of planting our spiritual seed... A Seed: To furnish with something that causes or stimulates growth or development( Merriam Webster, transitive verb).. My seed is NOW in the ground and I patiently await God's hand to move on my behalf! Oh YES, I believe..

As my mommy/friends and I walked the grounds we noticed "seeds" all over the place. Although water does not fertilize the seed, it surely helps to stimulate and promote GROWTH. I'm sure as people threw their change to make a WISH, they never thought of the spiritual aspect of it but the three of us surely did.

Our conversations soon turned to how it's hard for us to back each other as a people and help each other get to the top. We are so quick to spend vs investing and generating more revenue for a rainy day. As we caught the ferry over, there were "seeds"( change) in the waters, as we got on numerous rides, there were "seeds" planted all around and even if you looked hard enough, pennies were thrown every where...

Hmmmm, I thought.. I need to leave a "Seed" in the grounds of Disney. This is one of the most successful places in the WORLD. I believe if you invest in someone else's dream, you're investing in their success and yours too. I'm a small business owner right now but as I continue to help others, I'm making room for mine too. The family of Mr. Walt, will live off these riches of the LAND for days, months, years, decades and centuries. His kids, kids,kids,kids will live comfortable all because of a small seed that was placed in the ground.

I challenge each person who may read this blog to sow a seed. It doesn't have to always be monetarily but sow of your TIME, your SKILLS, your HANDS. You just never know what the outcome will be.

And once you make that initial investment, don't look for a reward right away, it takes time. But let the ground fertilize it, because in due time you will reap a bountiful harvest IF you faint not..

My Seed is in the ground and it's making room for me and Mine~
